Capt. S. Albert gave u lecture and
stereopticon entertainment on Friday
evening at the opera house under the
auspices Of the Masons. There was a
good attendance. The lecture was
given in a very graphic manner and was
highly interesting, more especially as

conditions and scenes that he described.
Many Of the scenes were very fine. He
also showed moving pictures, having an
attachment for that purpose on the
stereopticon. On Saturday evening, he
gave another lecture and entertainment

The we'll OF the Southern Oregon Oil
Co. has obtained a depth OF 1000 feet
and the drill is making fair progress,
with indications which the officials claim
are more encouraging for striking oil
than at any previous stage OF the drill
ing. There has been expended in round
figures $4,000 OF this amount s., 900
was paid for machinery and equipment.
and $1,000 has been used for payment
OF labor, fuel and incidental expenses in

anxious to sink at least 500 feet more,
