This is fuel oil. three and a half barrels OF
which have a fuel value equal to one ton Of
the best soft coal.
OIL is rapidly supplanting coal for manufac-
turing. railway and heating purposes. and the
market for 1t is practically unlimited
The company proposes to become its own
distributor to the leading coal-consuming points
of the world. Because of its enormous pro-
ductive capacity and its proximity TO the sea-
board 1t will be able to market its product at
the lowest cost known in the history of oil pro-
duction.
To this end 1t proposes at once to construct
immense storage tanks and its own pipe line to
Port Arthur. Texas, on the Gulf of Mexico.
This is a distance Of less than 20 miles from
the present well. From this point the oil Will
be distributed by the company's own system Of
tank barges and steamers to the worlds mar
kets. The vast trade possibilities which will
thus be opened up are almost inconceivabIy

WlgKiesworth's Accurate Census Gusss
OF Our Present Populatioa.

WIEKiesworth's Accurate Census Guess
of Our Present Population.
Edward Wigglesworth, Hollis pro-
fessor Of divinity at Cambridge" in a
little pamphlet published in the Dor
tentous year Of 1775 must have had a
correct idea Of the prosperity Of this
country during the century just clos
ing, as he predicted that the popula-
ton Of the British American colo
mics" in 1900 would be 80 700 900. In
cluded in this estimate was Nova SEQ
tia, now the Dominion OF Canada,
which. with its last recorded census
result Of 4,S0O.O 900 added to the rs .OOO.-
900 OF the United States, fulfills almost
to the letter the accuracy Of the Wig
ellsworth prophecy. And this some
what remarkable forecast was not bas-
ed upon any species OF gueSswork, but
upon q well defined and clearly con-
structed mathematical theory, which,
reduced to plain words, can be best
described in the language Of its au-
thor: THE British Americans have
doubled their numbers in every period
Of twenty-five years from their first
plantation" Taking this statistical
fact as basis for his calculations, the
Harvard divinity professor constructed
a system Of reckoning the increase Of
eountry's population, which history
has shown to be as correct as his
method was simple. Assuming that
the IT'S population was $500. 900. Mr..
Wigglesworth estimated 5000. 900 for
1900, 100000 for 1926, 10000. 900 for
1850, 100000 for 1875, and so, 200, 900
for 1890; and the record OF the United
States census. since its initial taking
in 1870, shows substantially these fig
ures as follows: Census Of 1900. s.

College football, during the season
recently closed had no worthier repre-
sentatives than the students Of the
Carlisle Indian School, in the essen
tiAls Of manltness and sportsmanlike
conduct generally. The games in which
they engaged were as many and as
hercely contested as those Of any other
college team, and the spectators, in
some instances, were neither 50 con-
siderate nor so sympathetic as they
might have been Yet their games
were exhibitions Of clean, straight foot
ball-sueh as all true lovers Of the
sport like to see. The umpire's de-
cisions were never once questioned,
and their defeats were accept d with
the spirit Of men who had dors their
best, and who had therefore, neither
excuses nor explanations to offer
They have won a place for themselves
in the regard Of many who would re-
joiee In their success in other fields
where the rewards are less neeting
than those of football.

STATE CAPITOLS.
buildings on Which IL l. the TendsRcy
TO spsad Millions of Del ars.

70 Spend Millions of Dollars
The corner stone OF q million dollar
state capitol for Arkansas was laid
recently at Little Rock. A few days
ago a contract was given out at Jack
son, Miss. for the building there Of a
new state capitol at a total cost OF
nearly q million. The present capitol
and grounds at Jackson are of the es-
timated value Of 100000 and the Lit
tie Rock capitol and gounds Of the
value OF only s25o,0O0 Many Of the
older settled states have capltois which
were built many years ago and were
designed to meet conditions which near
ly every state has since outgrown-
The capitol Of Alabama at Monig5m-
cry represents an investment Of only
$50 900, that of Louisiana at Baton
Rouge $3.50. 900, the grounds being in
cluded in this estimate; that of Ken
lucky at Frankfort, the. scene Of the
Goebel shooting. $500. 900, grounds In
cluded, and that Of Maryland at An
napolis, $500, 700. There has been Q
general tendency to replace the old
buildings by new and more costly
structures, as Is being done in Arkansas
and Mississippi. Thus In Sacramento,
the capital Of California, the new build
ings and grounds represent a total ex-
penditure Of 5000. 900. Austin, Tex,
has $500. 900 capitol. Pennsylvania
has at Harrisburg a $500. 900 capitol.
The little state Of Rhode Island has at
Providence a $1,000. 900 capitol and the
Iowa state capitol at Des Moines rep
resents a total investment Of S4.500. 900
The Illinois capitol at Springfield rep
resents a total investment Of $4,000, 900
and the Nebraska capitol at Lincoln
represents a cost OF $3.50, 900. The Wis
consin capitol In the small town Of
Madison represents an investment OF
81 900, 900 and Michigan has at Lam
sing at $500 900 capitol. In the small
er cities Of the country there are to be
found usually the most expensive |
capitols. a circumstance which has !
given rise to the expression "the |
smaller the capital town, the more ex-
pensive the capitol building" Colo
RADIO has a 81, SOC. 900 capitol and Wash
