Jasper’s Promising Oil Territory.

Three South Bend parties who hold 60 per cent, equally divided, in new oil wells down in Jasper county. 50 odd miles south, are jubilant over the superior quality of lubricating oil pumped from their new find in paying quantities. Work is to be pushed there as experts pronounce the oil product unexcelled. The names of the fortunate South Benders will be announced later. —South Bend. Times.
