HARRY NELSON, MERCHANT TAILOR
GAS COMPANY”
IS PROMOTED
*
M’KEESPORT, Pa., Jan. 14 (by As
sociated Press).—Women financiers
have entered the natural gas field, de
veloped during the past few months in
Snake Hollow, almost within the city
limits, and are drilling9their first Avell.
The pioneers were Miss Isabelle Mil
moe, assistant to the city treasurer,
and Miss Irma Atwater, assistant to
the city solicitor.
The heard so many stories of for
tunes being made in the new develop
ment that they found a bit of land not
under lease, contracted for a derrick,
and organized a company. Drilling is
to be commenced as soon as the plant
! is on the ground.
Development in the Snake Hollow
field is going on Avith every evidence
of the old-time “wildcat” oil and gas
boom. Town lots on the edge of the
city, Avhich three months ago Avere
next to worthless, are selling for as
much as $10,000 each, and every time
a new Avell comes in the price goes up.
A number of important Avells have
been brought in by companies whose
business it is to search for and find
natural gas. But spectacular and pic
turesque speculation and financing are
not lacking. Stories of the success of
some persons Avho have become rich
overnight have attracter others, until
the boom has claimed wide attention.
M’CARTHY MERCHANTS
MOVING TO CORDOVA
(From McCarthy News)
Laurie Bros., who for nearly five
years past have been among our most
prominent citizens, are leaving here
during this month to make their head
quarters in Cordova. During the time
they have been in business here their
clientele has spread over such a large
district that they find it will be more
satisfactory to conduct their business
in the coast city. The Laurie Bros,
have leased the corner building in Cor
dova which has been occupied by
Kenny Holden, and will conduct an
up-to-the-minute clothing store in that
city. They will reside in the apart
ments above. Much as we like to
know these young men are extending
»
their field of business, it is with very
great regret that we see thm lave
Mcarthy, for thir departure will mean
a great loss to our city. They have
always been foremost among our
boosters and ready to help with all
matters of benefit and interest to the
community.
Sam Means has left for his mining
claims at Nizina, where he will spend
some time.
Fred Overlander is in town from
Long Lake.
J. H. Murray is spending a few
weeks on his mining property at Chit
itu, Young and Calamity creeks.
Tom Lynch was a McCarthy visitor
this week from Strelna.
Leo Laurie, who has been confined
to the house since before Christmas,
is now quite well again. Leo was so.
ill a few weeks ago that his home was
quarantined by the doctor.
