ACTIVITY IN
THE OIL FIELDS
April Opens up With a Most
\ Gratifying Showing.
Fourteen Strings of Tools In Active
Operation independent Com
pany's Developing Territory
New Organizations In Field.

Quietly, without the blowing of
trumpets or other demonstration, but
steadily and surely the oil business of
the Florence fields is increasing and
the work of developing the territory
is being aggressiyeiy prosecuted.
The people of Florence who have
to do with oil lands and the oil bust
ness have adopted an unwritten law to
keep out ali unsavory, unreliable,
wild eating propositions, and foster
only such as show unmistakable
evidence OF solid financial basis,
and honesty of purpose. This plan
so strictly adhered to has had the
effect to keep investments in Florence
oil shares absolutely safe, and at the
same time stimulating the operations
of reliable parties.
The result is that with the opening
of the spring season there are no less
than eleven strings of tools actually
at work drilling for new wells, and
before another fortnight there will be
at least three more making total OF
fourteen in active operation at the
beignning of the Summer months.
The Petroleum Mining and Develop
ment company is down 230o feet and

and is therefore one of the best skins
to use for blouse and skirts. The pref
test way Of treating these skirts is to
LEI in on the hips some stitched cloth of
the same shade, fitting the skirt tightly
to the knees, where some strappings OF
cloth may be arranged at the top of a
shaped fl0unce. There must be a GER
tain amount Of fuIlness in these plain
skirts, and the fiounce should just clear
the ground. The b0lero or short blouse
to correspond can be finished with q
cloth or stitched silk band thereby
avoiding necessary bulk at the waist.
Fur as well as cloth coats are usually
lined with cream satin with inner frills
of lace when an extra elaborate effect
is desired at the neck and sleeves.
Enamel or paste buttons are also
added, and these sometimes figure as
ornaments on the large fur toques
which go with these suits A large
moleskin toQue relieved with white
chiffon and white ostrich feathers is
very smart.

No human creature can thrive and
come near perfection without giving
equal heed to the instinct for doing
right. And il is only as these three
great instructive forces come into
something like fair accord that we be-
gin to know contentment. Content
ment Is the index Of poise in a charac-
ter, While discomfort is an indication
nay, is the very essence-of distrac-
tion. And to be distraught, to do one
thing when we perceive we ought to do
another, to see the truth clearly and
not have heroism enough to follow it.
to lead an inner life Of turmoil-this
is the beginning Of death, the gradual
dissolution OF character we nearly all
undergo 1t may be habit or con
science or slavery TO conventionality
that enslayeS us and undoes us at the
last; it may be a faltering will and
Ackle heart; itmay be dulland sleepy
mind; the disaster is the same; we
feel the diversity of purposes of the
warning intuitions within us, and the
goblin Of discomfort perches on our

Floor Coverings.

Floor coverings are so expensive and
last SO long that they call for prayer
full consideration. Hardwood floors or
failing these, stained or painted floors
with single large rug. or with a
square carpet bordered like 4 rug, are
the most desirable, both for beauty and
use, says writer i'll the Pilgrim. A

the place Of the negligee. These fas-

are trimmed with fine lace, embroidery
and every dainty touch known to the

FIGHT BULLETINS AT
THE YOUNG HOTEL

The bar and billiard room of the
Young Hotel was crowded last night
to hear the result OF the prize fight in
San Francisco. The crowd began 10
gather early and by half past eight
the place was tammed with anxious
sports.
Manager Smith had charge OF the
bulletins and they were read and posi-
ed on their receipt. Between cable
grams the crowd discussed the fight
and the relative merits Of the two
contestants. When the final message
was read telling that COrbett was de-
feated there was a shout by the crowd
but little or no demonstration such as
is seen in mainland cities. The crowd
seemed more OF a curious nature than
a betting one. and soon after the de-
cision was cabled. it gradually melted
away.
Manager Lake had a quintette in at
tendance on the roof garden and dane
ing was INDUCED in by the guests of
the hotel and some OF the town peo-
pie during the evening.
