About a week ago the bailer got stuck in the caring, and although they have been hshmg for it for a week they bave as yet been unable to get it out. The prospects are that a new well will have to be sunk. The present well is about 380 feet deep, and it would only have been necessary to go down about one hundred feet further to reach the first sand. Boring Resumed at the Oil Well. The of the oil well south of town will probably be completed today and boring resumed.

The well is about 1500 feet dt-ep at the present time, and there is about 1,000 feet of water in the hole. As soon as the reaming out process is completed the casing Mill be dropped to shut off the flow of water, the well bailed out and boring resumed. There is a considerable showing of stray oil on the water bailed out of the well, which is considered an indication that the oil basin is not far off. Sheep Camp Blown Up. Under Sheriff Steward arrested jack Siatterfield in Fowler last Friday on a warrant sworn out by James Brown, wiio charges him with being implicated in the sheep robbery and blowing up of the sheep camp that occurred near Fowler last week.

The sheep camp was blown up witb dynamite and over two thousand head of sheep run off. When pursued by a party of ranchmen, however, the robbers deserted the sheep and escaped. This is the first arrest that has been made. Siatterfield was taken to Rocky Ford and rereleased on SSOO bonds. His preliminary will take place in Fueblo soon, the crime having been committed in that county.

Siatterfield is well known in the vicinity of Fowler, where he has lived for nine years. He is interested in cattle raising in a small way and has a claim located near the Brown sheep ranch. He bears a good reputation among his neighbors and his arrest comes as a great surprise to all. It is reported that there are three other warrants in the hands of the officers, hut the strictest secrecy is being maintained in regard to the names of the men wanted. Mr.

Brown has made the statement, however, and when the arrests are made there will be some some more surprises. Presbyterian Bazaar.

I Arthur Pierce Vaughn was formally installed as pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Lamar. The church fiad been tastefully decorated with a profusion of chrysanthemums and evergreens, and every seat was filled when tfie exercises began. The veteran, Dr. Kirkwood, of Colorado Springs, preached an able installation sermon, his theme being Dr. Robert Coltman, of La Junta, propounded the usual constitutional questions, to which Mr.

During his short labors here the membership of the church has been more than doubled, and its financial affairs are in a very prosperous condition. Lamar Sparks. District Court. In the district court last week three and one-half days were taken up with divorce case of Mattie Eleanor Lackey versus J. Lackey.

The case went to the jury at neon last Saturday, and after being out for twenty four hours were summoned into court about noon last Sunday and announced that they had been unable to agree upon a verdict. Judge Dixon then discharged them. The jury was composed of the following: Charles A. Lowe, Dave Ryder, D. R.

McClelland Elliott, the young man who swiped a wheel belonging to the Harvey House porter, and afterwards sold it in Las Animas for the sura of $5, was notified that sentence in his case would be suspended providing he would leave the state at once. Elliott did not appear to be much overjoyed at the termination of his case.

The price has ranged from per ton in the stack to on track. The harvesting of beets is not quite finished in this vicinity.

Yields as high as thirty tons per acre are reported. Ihe past seasen has demonstrated that beets are about our surest crop and that remarkably large crops can be; grown little water. There is great activity among the bachelors of this community, and what it all means we would not undertake to say. In the first place Ed Rich quietly stole away to Kansas and in a few days returned with a bride. They will reside on the Kandall ranch which the Rich boys have farmed for a number of years.

David Rich is building a large new rei.idence on his place east of the reservoir. He says that when completed he and his mother will occupy it, but the indications are that his mother will not be the only of the household. That confirmed old bachelor, John Bennett, is building a commodious new residence on his ranch and has it nearly ready for occupancy. He says he will occupy it alone, but what fie wants with a house of five or six rooms when one is all a bachelor ever uses, is beyond comprehension.
