It depends some- what upon the amount of leases that they are able to secure as to where the first well will be located, Was told today that some parties had come in from Oklahoma and were eager to get in the game; so if you hear of a great oil boom in Sterling, don't be! surprised.” | ° Derricks Wil! Girdle the Town If drilling commences on the bluffs! that encircle Casper, as the prognos- ticators say it will as soon as the weather will permit, next summer will, see our town girdled with derricks and resembling the famous Oil City in Pennsylvania, where no back yard is complete without its rig.

Mee “Good Luck” Claims Are Leased The Good Luck oil claims in Pow\ der River, 19-40-79, have been leased} to the Primero Oil and Gas Co., ac- cording to the records at the Court- house, The original locators of the leases are John Bryne, P. N. Nunn, C. P. Johnson, Fred Van Gorden, C. H. Mathes and M. C. Dutton. ee Great Lakes Oil Man Returns W. J. Bates has returned from the East, where he went about Christmas time, with the thought of remaining all winter. However, when his holi- days in Duluth were over, Mr. Bates found that there were so many things out here to attend to, he packed his grips and returned, stopping at Den- ver, Chicago, Kansas City and ether Places on the way out. eet Two Million Feet of Gas The gas well which Eugene Mc- Cathy drilled into at Powder River} Station the other day, was said to} Produce 4,000,000 cubic feet of gas, but, those who know about — these things are of the opinion that just about half that amount is right. This quantity is too small to make it worth while to pipe it any distance, but it would certainly be a fine thing for Casper and other towns near the oil fields if they could have the benefit of natural gas for cooking. 5 Louis Raviez of Tulsa, Okla, a Prominent man from that State, has returned to Casper, after spending sevetal days at Riverton, Work has closed down at that point for the Present, according to Mr. Raviez. ite —_—o— TH. Cook has returned from Worland and will join the rest of the McKeoughan-Hurst Drilling force at Glenrock. T,.O. Turner and Silas Lane are home from a short trip toward the northern part of the State. >_— “Interesting Figures The Ford Motor Company was or- ganiged June 16, 1903.

Thanks to the pulling power of a Tribune ad, and also to the industry of the youngsters of Casper, Spears and Lane were kept busy answering jthe telephone, and conducting a cat jinspection at the front door until late in the night. All manner of speci- meng were brought—from the battle- scarred veterans of the back fence to the tiny street waifs with their eyes searcely open, But, bright and early Saturday morning, Satan appeared in the custody of two energetic young men, who collected the five and de- parted joyfully. “Iam at a loss to know why Satan jshould act this way,” said Mr. Spears. | “We have tried to rear him properly, d both Silas and myself have always| t him a good example by returning} home at a r onable hour, Maybe this bitter experience will teach him ja lesson, and we expect no further! jtroublein keeping him at home.” R.
