ABOUT one of the best write-ups
the Florence oil field has ever had
by an outside paper, was that given
by the Colorado Springs Gazette
in its Sunday issue, in which a
page and a half are devoted to this
growing industry. Mr.. H. E.
Darlington, who represented the
Gazette in this write-up, spent
several days in the field securing
information and photographs, and
based his remarks upon actual OBJ
servstion, and did not depend upon
clippings from former write-ups in
other papers five or six years ago.
If you will read the Sunday Ga
zette you will be informed of the
Florence oil field of today, while
the cuts are made from photo
graphs OF the present conditions in
the field. Florence will certainly
profit from this excellent piece of
work of Mr.. Carrington's, Bust
ness men and oil men and citizens
should secure number of extra
copies of the Gazette and send
them broadcast over the East-it
would do us good.

France has just appointed a
young woman as secretary to the
French Consulate at New York
She has been the stenographer and
typewriter at the consulate and her
familiarity with the work made
her more valuable to the Office
than any of the other clerks, so a
regular consular appointment as
secretary came to her from the
French Minister of Foreign AT
fairs, M. Delcasse.

THE Oleomargerine fight in the
national house of representatives
had a forerunner when Senator
Ingalls, was in the senate. In the
debate the senator uttered one of
those epigrammic sentences which
made him famous. He said: 81
have never to my knowledge tasted
oleomargerine, but | have stood in
the presence of genuine butter,

BURNED BY GAS.
e. l.. Stevens fleets with a Pain
full Accident this Morning.

E. s. Stevens, an employe of W.
H. Runkle, was severely burned
by an explosion of gas in still
house in the United Oil company's
refinery at 9 o'clock this morning.
He is single man and resides
near the ice plant.
His burns are very painful. His
hair on his head was singed badly;
his face, neck, hands and wrists
were frightfully burned, but his
eyes were only slightly injured
He did not inhale any of the gas
A doctor was summoned and the
wounds dressed
He was engaged in riveting the
bottom of tank which for the
past few days had been leaking,
and the theory is that the jar
caused by the hammer had made
a spark which ignited the gas.

Was John L. Read Of Paradise valley
murdered ur did he die of natural
causes? That Is the question
which is agitatinG the people
OF that community ever since the
body OF Mr.. Read Was found in lonely
O'Neal canyon eight miles FROM towr.
And yet the matter has been hushed to
an extent that prevented any but elusive
rumors OF the murder theory reaching
this place. They seemed to have SO
little foundation that little or no
reliance was placed i'll them.
But now the Silver State has it from
reliable authority that circumstances
point almost coEclusively to the fact
that Mr.. Read was toully murdered.
When the body was found on July
10th, il will be remembered. il WAS
taken to Paradise and an inquest held
that evening by Justice Bradshaw and a
jury, The Silver State was furnished
with Il copy OF the verdict, which was in
effect that Mr.. Read came to his death
from natural causes.
Now the story is told that there was
dissatisfaction with the verdict, and that
another inquest was held the next day,
Just before the time set for the funeral.
At the first inquest there was no ply.
stefan present and only a superficial ex-
animation had been made Of the dead
mans head owing to its partial decom
posed condition. AT the second inquest
Dr. Bice made n thorough examination
Of head and body. The result was
startling i'll its nature. On the skull
we're found two wounds which the
physician pronounced ms sufficient to
cause death, and Which were evidently
inflicted by a heavy club or piece of
iron. On the neck were the plain marks
fingers on the o'Ier. the prints OF the
nails showing Enthusiastically.
The jury which WIS the same rs ut the
first inquest. found "a verdict stating that
Mr.. Read came to his death ON or abou,
July ID at the hands o: some person or
persons unknown.
Thus the case stands now With the
weight ri evidence indicating that d
destardly murder has been committed.
Until now il has been impossible t.

Of the body or other facts in relation t.
the case. Silver State
