pected to s'rike gas around 650 feet,

The well will be put down to 850 feet

hole Jimmie Seguin got started all
right Fridry the 13th, but only got
about 7C feet when he had a break
down and the drill was idle until this
week waiting for repairs. Jimmie
says that Fr.day the 13th insures a
gusher.
MILL FOLKS WELL PLEASED.
We made a \isit to the Blackwell
Milling & Elevator company plant
Tuesday of this week to see how they
were getting along with the natural
gas for fuel. They turned it on
Wednesday, July 18, and are simply
delighted with it. It makes a more
even heat than coal, is more econom-
ical, saves labor and is very satis-
factory. They all think it a super
ior quality of pas and tnat with their
thorough equipment accounts for the
big saving between it and coal. En-
gineer Peck has Installed a mercury
gauge and safety regulator and has
a home made governor of his own
make that makes the use of the gas
as safe and economical a? pocslb.e.
The happy couple were in Blackwell,
bu’ have gone to Nov ata, I. T , where
truy will make their home Mr.
Kibens is an enterprising young
merchant ot Nowata, being a mem-
b r of the general merchandise firm
of Roberts it Sun He has manly
habits and strong ambitions,
and no djubt will be one
of the coming men of the new state
Mrs Roberts is well knjwn in Black
well, her home having been here for
a number of j ears. She is the ac-
complished daughter of Mrs. Nannie
Howard, liviug southeast of town.
The young people first met in a col-
lege at Springfield, Mo., last Septem-
ber and the romance continued until
it ended iu a happy marriage The
bride has the oest wishes of her home
community, and the groom is luckv
to secure a lady of her accomplish-
ments lor his wife.—Da ly New.-,
Rev. Isom Roberts of the Christian
church, tendered his resignation last
Sunday evening The resignation
has not as vet been accepted.
With another good gas well or two
we are certain to have several good
industries established. One o f
the first things will probably be the
building of a salt plant to utilize the
salt well owned by the Union com-
pany. Brick and tile works are al-w
a certainty, and there Is a s'roug
probability of straw work*, auorUpr
flouring mill, cement works, etc. Tr»-
quality of our pas. with our enviaM •
location cannot fall to attract th -
attention of tra-’ii-acrurere who ai •
