The morning papers are unanimous
in admitting that the challenger was
fairly and squarely beaten by better
boat. Most Of the papers are gratified
that Sir Thomas Lipton's public spir-
tied action should have stimulated in
ternational good will, beside resulting
in the finest and closest race ever wit
messed in the history of yachting.
New York, Oct. AFTER Sir
Thomas Upton, accompanied by
Mr.. Jameson and Mr.. Watson, had
paid a farewell visit to Colonel
Burbank and his family at the mill

When asked IL it were true he was
willing to put the captain and crew of
Shamrock on board the Columbia and

Shamrock in series of races, Sir
Thomas said:

Secretary Oddie of the New York
Yacht club said that such race might
create bad feeling, and especially if
the Shamrock should win. Commo,

While taking his defeat gamely, Sir

when he talked about the races on the
Erin.

touched bottom when a launch from

"Sir, we have never had a truer
sportsman to deal with"
Many of Sir Thomas guests on
board the Erin crowded around to ex-
press their sympathy at his defeat and
assured him of the high place he had
won in the hearts of all Americans

There were tears in the Irish baro

their kind words. Said he: "The
words you have spoken touch me far
more than my defeat today. l tried
to win the cup and I have done my
best. But better than all that, have

When asked about his plans for the

of the entire production OF the

Compressed Air for Pumping
Oil Wells.
Scientific American.

been put is the pumping of oil
wells. California has throughout
its entire length, butof these what
is known as the Bakersfield or
Kern River District, situate about
the middle of the state, is head
and shoulders about all the others,
both as to present production and
possible developments. In this
DISTRICT the formation Hest almost
horizontal and, with the exception
of sticky clay and heaving stand,
is just hard enough to drill rapidly,
but the heaving sand has been SO
difficult to overcome that in many
cases wells that, from their sur
roumdings we're absolutely sure OF
oil have after months of constant
effort, been abandoned on account
of the heaving sand. 1t certainly
requires courage and persistence
in the drillers, after working for
days and perhaps only gaining
ten or fifteen feet, OF possibly no.
thing at all, to run his tools into
the hole and find that they will
not go down within one. two or
possibly three hundred feet of
what they had gone bat a few min
utes before; and to have this ex-
perience day after day and week
after week will test every virtue
a man may possess, including his
| pocketbook.
Every expedient known in other
fields has been tried here but
with only moderate success. The
formation being loose and open
allows the water to run away so
fast that the. rotary hydraulic rig
is failure, though where the
sand heaves inside the casing a
column of water is used with
good effect to aid in holding il
back. Even after the oil sand has
been reached aud the pump put
in, the troubles have only begun
as the pressure outside of the cas-
ing forces the sand through the
perforations and the veil has to
be shut down at short intervals &c
remove the accumulated sand and
clear the working barrel, necessi,
Eating an engine and rig at each
we'll and also the retaining of g
"pulling crew" of at least three
men.
| To overcome these conditions d
great deal of expensive experiment.
tai work has been done by various
companies, and at this time com.
pressed air gives promise of sol.
wing the problem. The air is
piped from the air compressor
| (too we'll known to need any de-
scriptlon) to the we'll, q l-inch
pipe RI n down into the we'll and
connected with q 3-inch tubing
near the bottom by a U joint,
though in some cases two or three
pipes are connected, one at the
bottom Of the tubing, one at about
three-qaarters distance down and
one about one-half the distance.
In starting the well pumping they
are all turned on together until
the column of oil is started, when
the intermediate connections are
shut off and the lower one will do
all the work, usually requiring
about 100 pounds pressure in an
S5O-feet well, Ia gravity oil. By
this method everything above the
connections is carried out of the
tubing and the deeper that are
submerged the better the results.
