Struck Oil at Delphi.

The Indiana Oil and Asphaltum Co., composed mrinly of Lafayette men, struck oil within a mile and a quarter of the court house at Delphi. The company was organized for the purpose of prospecting in Carrol county, and this is their first well. It is thought the well will yield 600 or 700 barrels per day. Ten additional wells will be drilled at once.
