found it at a deptb or 1653 feet. When
tbe sand was tapped there waa a email
amount of gas apparent, and as tbe drill
further penetrated tbe sand there was a
mere suspicion of oil in the sand-pump-Ings,
but so slight was tbe showing tbat
tbe venture is considered a complete
"duster." V net her tbe operators will
drill for a deeper sand baa not yet been

bas since beeu decided to drill tbe well
about 250 feet deeper, to the Cooper sand.

A Dollar Sale
of Men's Stiff and Soft Hats
of the Stiff Hats are 7, 7., 7 only they are not the
very latest styles, but are staple shapes that are always in

your size is there you can take
Plenty of Opportunities
in our stock of Men's, Boys' or Children's Clothing to get
almost two dollars worth of good reliable clothing for the
price of a dollar, as all the winter lines are broken in sizes,
and to us are not worth what they would be with sizes in
ail lines, but to the man who buys an $18 Overcoat or Suit
for $12.60 because only one or two of a size certainly does
not hurt the wearing qualities of the style, as it's usually
the best sellers that sizes are broken on.
