TEMPE's SEARCH FOR OIL
The Excitement Seems to Be Spread
 ing as Boring Progresses.

The oil excitement in the vicinity of Tempe increases as the days go by and new faces are daily seen in the field looking for favorable ground on which to make locations.
 Few readers of The Republican per haps know just where the supposed oil field is located, but every one who has been in the valley any length of time knows where the Hole.-in- the-R Rock is. The prospective oil district lies between the e-in-the-R Rock and, the river, north, and a little west of Tempe.
 A Tempe citizen who was in Phoenix last night said that there were now three or four holes down from twenty to thirty feet. No oil has been found yet but the various strata penetrated eXudes a suggestive odor and assays that have been made result in a lim- ited percentage of petroleum. Of course the sinking is not deep enough to lead the operators to really expect results yet. One company in which Dr. Hart of Tempe and Jerome, and Dr. Wood of Jerome, are interested, now has a man in Los Angeles for the purpose of bringing out proper machinery for drilling, and they have money enough behind them to either find oil or bore a deep hole in the ground
 Yesterday there was more stalking of claims and half a dozen rigs came down from Mesa to look over the ground. New faces are seen daily and should a good oil flow be encountered the land that has heretofore been considered valuable only as a gravel bed for the streets of Phoenix and Tempe, will hardly be purchasable
 In connection with this it is said that the pioneer oil prospector was Robert Bowen, who is now ranching near Mesa. He quietly began operations in what is now known as the Tempe field some years ago but for some reason lost heart in the enterprise, after sink ing about thirty feet. Oil is like gold, wherever you find it, and it is sincerely to be hoped the present operations may be rewarded with satisfactory results.

ROBBED THE CRADLE
Lady Randolph Churchill's Marriage
 Yesterday.

London July 2S.-In St. PauTs. Knights Bridge. the most fashionable West End church, the much discussed wedding of Lady Randolph Churchill and Captain Geo ge Cornwallis West of the Scots Guards. took place at II o'clock this morning. The ceremony was conducted by the very Rev. Rob ert Gregory, Dean of St. Paurs, assist ed by the canons. The bridal party proceeded to the church from the resi- dence of the brides sister. Mrs. More tOn-F'reWen. Although the wedding was not designed to be a notable social function, and was, on the contrary, considered more private than public, there assembled in the church most distinguished company. The intimat te friends and followers of the Cornwallis Vests were notably absent, but the presence of several members of the royal family and representatives of England's highest social set cOnspicu- ously occupying the pews facing the altar went a long way towards refuting the many sensational statements that the bride of today would never be for given by her intimate friends for her marriage to young West. It was re- marked by those present that the youthful bridegroom. though not hand some. looked exceedingly well. He wore the uniform of his regiment, the Scots Guards, in which corps he holds the rank of captain. The brides wedding gown was of pale blue chiffon, covered with beautiful lace, and she wore a pale blue picture hat with black plumes.

THE sANGUINARY WILHELM.
His Instructions to Spare No Chinese
 Criticized.

Berlin, July 2S.-Emperor Williams address to the soldiers comprising the China expedition forms the subject of general discussion today. The emperors instructions to spare no Chinese and make no prisoners are condemned by nearly everybody one meets, and also by the press.
 The Lokdi AnZeiger pretends that the emperor did not mean what his words implied. but that he merely wished to caution the members of the expedition that they would meet a foe who does not spare and makes no prisoners. But nearly all the other papers, comment ing upon the emperor's speech, strongly argue against it.
 One paper maintains that the em- peror's behavior is likely to split up the harmony of the powers, and doubtless some of the powers will not agree to the emperor's instructions
 The idea of the United States acting as a mediator between Europe and China has met with the most decided rejection here, the correspondent of the Associated Press learns, despite the honeyed words accompanying the re- fusal
