Elk County Dusters.
Elk county, unlike Its sister county
of Forest, on the side of It next to the
setting sun, 1s to some extent, to dread
winning; that is to nny, making n
living for Itself. The hind, which
originally wits hf M In Inrge tracts by
lumber companies, with the dimippcar
ance of the valuable timber, has been
cut up Into small holdings. A few of
the fronteer townships Hre as yet
wrapped pretty much in solitude and
timber, but some portions of the in
terior present, in a limited way, a
Garden of E ten aspect tpiite in con
trast to its "backwoods" locality. The
topography of the country is broken
like MeKean county. Its hills tire
bold, bluff, and, when denuded of
timber, remarkah'e bald. The highest
peaks contain coal, and the mountain
brooks ar alive with trout. The
county, in a word, is famous for its
tanneries, its dry holes, and for Its
unique political complexion. Among
its tanneries Is the largest leather
manufacturing establishment in the
world, to wit, The Schullz Tannery,
Wilcox. Its dry holes are the driest
in the land, while Its Democrats are
the demoeratest anywhere.
Elk county 1ms long hud aspirations
of the oil character. Away buck in
the times Just prior to the lute "on
pleasantness," n fever of speculation
swept over the county. Thousands of
acres were taken up which subse
quently leverted to their owners
undrilled, During the war and im
mediately succeeding that event, a
number of oil producing enterprises
took shape. Several companies were
organized, and some of them proceeded
to business in a business like manner
Operations in those curly times were
confined to valleys and adjacent to
large streams, under the then existing
belief that oil flowed in regular sub
lerraneun channels, like rivers do on
the surface. According to this theory,
the valley of the Clarion River, being
the largest stream in the county, was
very popular as well sites.
In 1804 George Dickinson, a victim
to the prevailing oil fever of the times,
built a rig and drilled a well on his
lands in the western suburb i-f Ridg-
way. The labor was prosecuted hy
water power. He worried the hole
along and in a year or so hud punched
the opening down 8:H). At Mo he
struck gas. The enterprise soon after
this was abandoned. Later, work whs
resumed by Mr. Hugeriy, of Ridgway,
under whose direction the well was
sunk to- n deph of 9U0 feet. No oil
being found, the sponge was thrown
up mid the weir abandoned lor good.
About the same year General Stew
art and others drilled u shallow hole
on Elk Creek one mile west of Dngus
enhomla. This venture u'sn graduated
at 9'Kr feet. No oil was found. The
same parties drilled another well, two
and a half miles west of Duguscahonda.
Thi one died early likewise. In 1-S T4
Brookvillc putties secured' a lease
the mouth ot Millstone township, on
which, a well was (lulled. 1 am
without rulioble data concerning it.
The log, ir any was kepr, is very im
perfect. A driller who did service on
the well states that 100 feet of sund
was found, aud a fdiowiug of oil oh
tnincd. The showing of oil is all
right That part has been corroborated
by competent witnerses. The- same
authority stales that the well was
drilled 2,000 feet and then abandoned
without testing. In this connection
people living hard by the well say that
the mill men in all that country side
get their supplies of crude oil from
this well. The oil which they ue
for both illuminating and lubricating
purposes is obkii ned by dipping from
the conductor hole. Millstone town
ship is in the extreme southwestern
portion, of the county. Millstone
Creek is n tributary of the Clarion
River. This one was the lirst
deep well drilled in tlie county, and
the only one in some fifteen te.ts that
is accredited with oil. In the three
years following the completion of the
Millstone well, the drill was given a
rest in this county.
f The next wihUmt venture to disturb
the afternoon siestas.of the owls was
that of the late lamented John Wal
lace, now in Heaven. Tills venture
is located on warrant 8,2'jI, Ridgway
-township, two miles northeast of Wil
cox. The drill was started in April.
1878,and stopped June 2fi,bHving regis
tered 1,7(10 feet. No oil was discovered.
The sands were found regular, but
there was not very much or it. The
drillers say they thought they could
de.ai.-t the presence of oil in the sand
puinpings. Only a suspicion of it and
nothing more. The drill stopped W
feet below the occau line.
Aliout the same time the P. C. L. &
P. Co. built a rig on warrant 3,257.
Jones township, about one mile east of
Wallace well.. The drill was started
April 1, and stopped in the bottom or
the hole ut 1.002 fed; elevation above
ti.lt Invfl 1.595 feet. The well was
cased at 380 feet: salt water was found
at 250 feet. Little or no Hands were
found fifty-one feet of sund is re
ported between 1.70G uml 1,750 feet.
The lop of this sand Is 200 feet below
ocean level. The land upon which
this well was diiile l Is owned by the
Wilcox Lumber aud Tunning Com
pany. Next in order of development comes
the well of Reuh Boughton and
then o warrant 2151, Jones town
Mp, about four uillea wst and one
and one-half tulles north of the Wal-1
lace well. The oi of thU well Is not
obtainable. Mr. M. M. Schultz, of
VVIIcox.says, In his opinion, the well
was not drilled deep enough for oil.
He thinks It stopped at 1,700 feet. No
oil was found as far as they had gone,
First and second sai.d was found "O.
K." as Col. SehuitiS expresses it. but
the third was "non est." Mr. Schult.
suspicions are no doubt ill founded.
Houghton is a good careful operator,
and one not easily deceived in sands.
It is not like a go d operator to "swap
horses in the middle of the stream.
Hut, in the event that matters are sub
stantially as Mr. Sehultj sus)ect8
them to be, Mr. Houghton is still on
the safe side. A certain saving cluuse
in the lease relating to depressed
prices for oil prevents the Instrument
working for forfeiture.
In the following year F. H. Clem-
inger, of Bradford, Colonel Hunt, of
Sawyer and others, took up some
lands in the northeastern part of
Highland township. They made a
location on warrant 3788; land of
Jones Bros., first well whs drilled
2,000 feet. The Bradford stratus
came in perfect regularity, according
to Mr. Clemliiger; 00 feet of third sand
is. reported. Eight to ten feet of It
was sufficiently open and porous to
bear oil, but perfectly dry. "The sands
resemble lCiii7.ua sands in appearance,
being a coffee -brown. A tremendous
gas lead was o, -n A 4 ) quart shot
was exploded in the hole, which bad
no effect than to increase the gas.
La-it 'Milliliter another rig wus built 53
rods sou 111 west of No- 2. The lease
hold and property m.-untime pusMiug
Into the control of Roy & Archer, who
drilled No. 2. This one was finished
six weeks ago, or, more properly, was
believed to be Unit lied about that
time. It was (hilled iniothe sand, at
all events. Sund was struck at 2,000
fleet. It is supposed to lie from 60 to
tiO feet in thic.itiiess. It Inn got no
gas to speak of, and the impression
prevails in Kane that the sand show
ing is an improvement on No. 1 sund.
No. 2 bus riot been shot. More than
that, there is a person in Kane willing
to risk his "ulfred duvy" that there is
nothing there to shoot. The improved
prospects are mere conjuctiire of the
part of the inhabitants. The terms of
their contract with the landlords re
quire them to sturt another well in
March.
Jonathan vnton drilled a well on
the East Branch of the Clarion river,
at Joliusonburg, warrant 3,-8,i; land oi
E. W. Rolfc. The mouth of this well
N 1.441 feet above ocean level. The
hole wus drilled 2,3"0 feet. The per
sinleiit oil siiuds were found in their
propel-order. Third sand was struck
1.W0 feet It was yo feet in thiekiics
but contained no oil. Gas was found
in both the lower sands. The top ot
the third sand is 21! rect below the
ocean level. No oil sands are repotted
below the third strata. A gas jet of
about two-boiler power which, like
the sacred tires is kept constantly
burning and lightens up the gloom for
Johnson burners. Watson, after the
failure of the Joliusonburg venture
moved 4 miles south and located an-
other well on warrant 4,8(j0: land of
Hvde. No. 2 1 located on the rout It-
east corner of the warir.nt and about
1 J miles cast of a north and south line
running from No. 1 to No. 2. Well
mouth above ocean level, 1,44. leet.
The drill wus started during lust sum
mer, and st.i ped on Saturday Int. I liv
ing concluded its missii n, but without
bringing joy to the luarts of the dur
ing cxperin entH ists. Tl.rce well tie
lined oil sands were found, but some
of them were so slender as to require
the service of a microscope to aid tie
teet'uui. Third sand was found at
1.1100 fi et, being of a precise depth as
that found at Johnsonbiirg. But it ws
only a few feet in thickness utid wholly
destitute of oil, drilling was continued
to the depth of 2,2'J0 feet No gas was
discovered anywhere in the ho'e, and
no salt water to speak of. Mon lay
the casing was drawn, and the hole
abandoned. This is the thirl dry
hole that Mr. Watson has drilled in
this section of country, the lirst one
being on the Hebron lands, McKcuu
county.
Five miles southwest of Watson's
Whistletown venture Seth mid Mar
cus (lutings drilled a well on warrant
4:3'.i4 Daintseahoudu on Elk creek and
on lands of Col. Bates, Sheldon aud
others. This well was drilled to a
depth of 1905 feet. Three regular oil
sands were found, third sand being
discovered ut Kl feet. Hillings re
ports 55 feet of tltir 1 s ut l an I slight
indications of oil. It was shot with
twenty-two quarts of glycerine.but the
shock failed to have effect, either for
good or evil. The venture wus aban
doned witltout any further test being
made. The mouth of this well is
ulsiut 1473 feet aJiove lli-j oe.-an level.
The third sand according to those
figures un-K-rlies-the ocean level 2oJ.
feet. No gas.
Huliugs moved two miles east ami
located another well ut Bcabonda, on
warrant 4,40ts, owned us above. Well
mouth above the ocean level, 1,510
feet. Drilling was begun on or about
November 17 and stopped Feburury 1
when the well wus resirted to be
1,815 feer. Mr.. Hilling says he not
u better showing here than in No. 1
at Dugtis'. He reports oil and gas in
the second sand gas enough to furn
ish fuel for Imller. Second sand was
found at 1 400 feet-40 feel in thickness
The third sund wus struck at 1.7:0
feet, 60 feet in thickness. Mr. Hill
ings says he thought he could delect
the yrwsenee of oil in the sand pump
lugs. He says the a-. nd is a grayish
dark or cotn-e color. The third sand
in tills well Is 851 feet below the tide,
und 48 feet lower than the same sand
horizon at the Dugiiscahoudu well,
two miles to westward. Mr. Hullngs
gays lie noticed a chauge In the strata
from the mountain sand tu the bottom
of the well. The well has not been
shot. Mr. llulinsri thinks It Is quite
probably that he will drill an addi
tional fifty feet. He thinks that a
well, if drilled a mile or two south of
Hcahnudii would no d ubt strl'ie it
rich. This well is located on the
line of the P. A IS. R. R., three miles
westof St. Marys ft-id seven and n
half miles cast of Rldgway.the eupltol
of the county.
Green Bros., of Warren, drilled two
we'ls north of St. Marys about two
years ago, the first one being in the
centre of warrant 4,084. Drilled 1,200
feet, no oil no gas. The second weli
was located about three miles north of
St. Marys, oh the Williamsport road,
and on warrant 4,104. This well is
not unlike Its contemporary in its
results. Both were dry. both found
sand, and both. It is believed, got u
little gas. Mr. Hilling thinks they
are not deep enough to catch the third
sund rock. These wells are nor'.li ami
east of Iluli'igs' wells, and, if deep
enough, certainly cook the goose ot
Renzingcr township, us likewise are
the Watson wells, add also that ol
Grant & Morton, on warrant 4,807, one
mile westof Ridjwuy Borough. ThU
well was drilled 1.800 feet, got sand
but no oil. A 40-ouart shot was ex
ploded in it which did not seem to
amend mutters. A well, I understand,
wus drilled in Benezette township.
With the exceptions of the important
fact that It is dry, no other informa
tion is at blind.
Tills article covers all the wells
drilled in E'k county up to this date,
with the single exception of the Pratt
& Huliock well, Millstone township.
Not shut down ut 1,000 feet and pre
sumably dry. Sixteen hundred feet
at that point is certainly deep enough
to intercept the third sand If any ex
ists there. The list of dusters include
10, und all that have ever been drilled
in the county a sufficient depth for
011. They are widely scattered and
condemn a large scope of territory
The third sands in all wells of which
records arc obtainable, were found at a
singularly uniform depth, and almost
a uniform dtpth of seam. The
Whistletown well being the further
most west of the eastern series of wells
getting least sand; while Huliugs' No
2 at Scuhonda on the eust side got the
greatest depth. The prospects for oil
in paying quantities in Elk county ate
of the bluest possible sort.

was elected to the Pennsylvania House
of Kcpresciital ives, where lie took a
leading part in leislatii n and served
continuously until 1870. For several
sessions he was Chairman of the
Judiciary Committee, and was re
