EXPORT / OIL 3
OF BEAUMONT.
President. Hon. Charles A. Towne
OF NEW YORK CITY AND BEAUMONT. TEXAS.

President Townes work in the north during the
past fortnight has demonstrated that the 500 COO
barrel reservoir originally contracted for viii not
be sufficient to meet this company's requirements
1t has therefore been determined to increase the
capacity to 1,l6O.O0 barrels covering 10 acres tf
ground; and new contract has been executed to
take the place of that for the former proposed
half-milion barrels.
One of the leading reasons for this increase Is
that negotiations have been entered into by this
company for the Of fuel oil by two Of the
largest street railway corporations In the United
states, which will make 1t necessary tor the COM
rany to store very much larger supply han
originally contemplated. In addition, a contract
Will In all probability be closed within a very few
days with one of the largest southern railroad COM
panies on favorable terms. and they will be large
daily consumers.
Pending the completion of this larger reservoir,
the company has decided to at dril two new
wells. one on its Spindle-Top Heights property,
block 49, and the other its lands in the johnson
survey.
This latter tract is Of the two outside tracts

government is powerlers to protect
travellers In the remote provinces Of the
Interior Violation OF the agreement
would be an ever present danger OF
new outbreaks and more punitive ex-
petitions, II the speclesOf Christianity
preached IN China has not IN all these
years, been demonstrated to be some
thing superior 10 oriental systems Of
religion something Of practical value to
the people and therefore desirable. II Is
certainly not time to force II upon the
country by violent means.
Some idea Of missionary activity in
that country can be formed from
story told by the San Francisco Call,
TO the effect that the clause in the
treaty Of 1860, relating TO liberty OF mis-
sionaries was a forgery. The treaty
had been negotiated. that paper says,
In the usual manner and It's terms
agreed on. It had been read IN French,
the diplomatic language Of the coun-
try, and then It was given 10 o mis-
sionary to translate into Chinese, and
he interpolated the clause relating TO
liberty Of travelling and proselyiing,
The Chinese plenlpotentiaries are said
to have signed the document without
suspicion Of the forgery. trusting In
the honesty Of the translator, With
such evidences Of dishonesty, II Is not
strange II the Chinese refuse to open
their country to the foreigners for the
purpose Of propagatlng the strange be-
liefs.
A case Of indlscretion on the part of
these emlssaries is also told by the
San Francisco Call. 1t had trivial
beginning, but II ended with Ch.ra be-
ing forced to pay large indemnity.
Some children, II Is said were playing
near missionary compound and threw
rocks at the stockade. One Of the mis-
sionaries, seeing this, ran out and seized
a child, dragged II inside and locked
the gates Its playmates, naturally
ran off and told their parents, When
they came and demanded their child
the missionaries refused to release him.
Then the whole town rose In a mob
tore down the compound wall, recovered
the child and wrecked the buildings
The government concerned compelled
China to pay large indemnity, when
justice required that the whole mis-
slonary party should be punished for
the original aggression.
The trouble with these jealous mes.
sengers Of peace is that they
are too impatient for rsults Of
their efforts. fhey have an idea that
unless the people to whom they preach
Immediately accept their offers Of sal
walton, they are eternally lost They
leave nothing to the eternal mercy OF
Omnipotence. Had they not this big
oted view of life and eternity, they
might be content with the slow but sure
work Of true philanthropy. which is as
much honored and beneficial In pagan
countries as anywhere.
