TO WORK ON
OIL WELL
Contract About to be Made With
a Well Known Kansas Driller
Who Means Business.
TO A DEPTH OF 2000 FEET
For Cash Considerations of $o500
And Half Interest In The Pro-
perty and Other Provisions.
The people ot Chandler will have
submitted to theui at tonight's meet-
ing In the Interest of the oil well a
definite proposition, the acceptance of
which will, it is believtd, mark the re-
sumption of operations under the most
favorable auspices.
The officers of the oil company and
other business men have been in con-,
ference with J. F. Holt, a representa-
tive of H. B. Roberson of Coffeyviile,
a well-known operator in the Kansas
Held, as a result of which a contract
was formulated wh eh it is believed
will prove acceptable to both parties.
It is proposed to drill a well to a
depth of 2000 feet, unless at a lesser
depth oil is secured, a flow of 5,barrels
a day, or 200,000 cubic inches of gas.
For their services the drillers are to
receive $3">00 and one-half interest in
the company. The payments of money
and delivery of the stock of the com-
pany are to be guaranteed through
the banks of the city. It is provided
that the company shall pay the drillers
$1 per foot on demaud as the work
progressesuntil the completion of the
well, and the remainder of what Is due
immediately thereafter, the drillers to
have the casing which the company
has now on hand and their derrick
in the construction of the well. If,
after drilling 1200 feet, the drillers
should encounter Mississippi lime-
stone or quicksand which it is impos
sible for them to go through, they will
have a right to abandon, and in that
case the drillers are to receive an
additional 50 cents for each of the
total number of feet drilled in lieu of
all other payments, the drillers to for-
feit all stock in the company and turn
over to it all their casing, rigs, etc
The drillers are to gurantee their part
of the contract by giving bond and
are to commence work within thirty
days, and to pay for all labor and
material used except the 600 feet of
casing now on hand.
Mr. Holt estimates that it would cost
upward of $7u00 to put down the well
2000 feet. It is further provided tiiat
should the drillers go down 2000 feet
or encounter Mississippi limestone or
quicksand tbey cannot penetrate' they
drill other wells on the same condi-
tions at the option of the company
until oil or gas is found in paying
quantities.
Tins proposition be submitted
to Mr. Iloberson fo -> approval and
to the people of Chandler at the meet-
ing tonight.
The proposition seems to h ve
met with favor and to be tin' best
offer that has betyi made t the
Chandler people. Under this
contract they would get down a
well to a dep h of at least -.000
feet unless they strike oil or gas
in paying quantities at a lesser
depth. The company.is to have
the permission if it desires of
keeping a man at the place of
drilling to take samples of earth
for every five feet drilled and to
be fully advised as t<> what the
drillers are doing.
It is believed from what is
known of the formations here
and at Spencer where a depth of
more than 2000 feet was reached
that there is no danger of en-
countering Mississippi limestone
or quicksand within that depth
in this" vicinity.

St. Petersburg, June 2S, 2 a. m.—
The wave of disorder rolling over
Russia has appeared at Odessa where
a general strike accompanied by
bloodshed and disorder commenced.
A presS dispatch received last night
said that 400 armed workmen barri-
caded a suburb and repulsed the at-
"
inforcements of three companies of
Cossacks were sent to the suburb, but
the result of their attack on the strik-
ers is not yet known.

j Mrs Kite Richards O'Hare present
ed the subject of socialism compre-
hensively and pointedly in an address
at the court house square last night
to a crowd that manifested a close
attention from beginning to end.
She interested them first with a de-
scription of the condition of children
in the factories of the country and ap-
peal to humanity for the release of
the little ones from their slavery In
accordance with the socialist doctrine.
She then reviewed the history of the
development of the trusts, showing the
connection between the constantly
narrowing circle of the private owner-
ship of natural resources and means
of the production of wealth «and the
widespread poverty of the people
growing greater and greater through
the successive periods of prosperity
and depression from 1873 to 1S93 when
the great combinations of capital first
came to be known as trusts. At the
same time she traced the history of
the organization of reform parties In
this oountry from the demands of the
people for control of the currency and
afterwards of the government owner-
ship of railroads, etc., until the final
organization of0 the socialist partv
with its demands for the public owner-
ship of the land with th^means of pro-
duction and transportation.
Sho backed her argument with facts
at every point in a manner that ap-
pealed to the intelligence of her aud-
ience who had personal knowledge in
their owcf•xperience the matters
with which she was dealing. Allud-
ing to the operations of the trusts she
showed how they controlled every line
of business and challenged the busi-
ness men of Chandler to show the
contrary in any case. Using the illus-
tration of the big fish swallowing the
little fish she told the business men
here that tHey were not even minnows,
only wiggle tails, but that sooner or
later, small and Insignificant as they
were, the trusts,after having swallow-
ed everything else, would make a little
meal of them.
In conclusion she re-stated the gen-
eral propositions of socialism and
pointed out their relations to the
so -ial problems of the hour. She
called for questions but none were
asked and then received congratula-
tions which showed that she had made
a most favorable impression on the
minds of the audience They had
listened intently to a most convincing
argument on socialism end were more
than pleased with candid treatment of
the subjects touched upon and left in
a thoughtful mood with remarks that
indicate there will be more than one
that will continue the study of econ-
omic matters with deep interest. No
address has ever been made here
VITAL RELIGION
Expounded by Kate Richards.
OUare at Baptist Church
Last Night.
Mrs. Kate Richards O'Hare deliver-
ed a sermon at the Baptist church last
night which was well deserving of a
hearing by every thoughtful person In
Chandler and vicinity. Owing to the
late hour at which arrangements were
made for the use of the church, It was
not generally known that she was to
speak and many who would have been
glad to hear her did not know It in
time. She spoke in brief as follows:
'•The three great problems that con-
front the Christian church are: The
lessening inliuence of the church over
the lives of flie people: the evil of in-
temperance and the social evil.
"The church is losing its inliuence
over the lives of the people because in
the hour of their need the church is
turning a deaf ear to the cry of the
despoiled and robbed of earth. Two
million and a half of our children are
being slowly murdered in the mills,
mines and factories of the land, and
the church refuses to hear their dying
wail of agony. Five million women
are being despoiled of their woman-
hood. denied the right to wife and
motherhood and forced Into a life of
never-ending, killing tjil, and the
church is making no protest and be-
cause the church stands silent on these
vital problems of the day the people
are turning away from the church and
seeking champions for their cause
elsewhere.
•"The temnerance crusade fails to
produce results and prohibition tails
to prohibit not because men are grow-
ing worse but because the enormous
profits of the whisky trust buys all
branches of government, law-making,
law enforcing and judical. The profits
on the saie of intoxicating drinks cor-
rupt the very source of family, civic
and religious lite. Temperanca can
never prevail until we take the profits
out of the liquor business.
"Rescue u isslons fail to rescue; re-
formatories to retorm and charity to
succor because they deal with effects
instead of causes.
"Women are not piostltutes be-
cause they enjoy it but because they
are forced to sell their bodies for
bread to fill their mouths. When we
make it possible for all women to earn
their living by honest labor womeD
will be rescued before tbey fall. When

told to throw down tbe pistol he had
been carrying he complied with the
request but afterward picked it up and
lireil upon Munsell when the ollicer

fired on him and after exchanging sev-
eral shots with them the negro took to
