The Missouri Valley base ball
team travelled northward yes
terday with the avewed inten-
ton of showing Modale that we
are the real I've champs of Har-
rison county, and that the game
we took from them at Logan
was nopgesent with the umpires
compliments at the bottom.
We showed 'em, beating them
6 to 2. But Modale, like the
blooming English, never knows
when it is whipped and is com
ing down for another walloping
Labor day.
Aside from the heavy hitting
of the Valley squad and the
antics of the umpire, who can't
Jump for sour pickles, the
game was devoid of excitement.
The Valleys slugged the famous
wizard, Whitehead, to death,
batting out eleven clean hits,
but what little fielding was done
I by the Valley team was rather
to the bad.
Modale couldn't touch Nicely,
and but for the kindness of the
umpire and the bum fielding of
the Valleys they wouldn't have
hearl a single strain of that
grand old song, Home Sweet
Home. As it was they only got
there twice.
When Modale comes down
Labor day, mighty doings are

that the victories the lads have
won entitle them to a good at

These mines have not been

There are two shafts 500 feet deep,
$50 feet apart, connected, and with
$500 feet of direct development
work on the different levels. In
the old slopes there are estimated
10000 tons of low grade ore, which
were kept in the mines during
former operations, which under
present conditions will pay TO ex-

800 foot level the length of the en-

showing from four to fourteen feet

Petroleum. Continued.

1t must be noted that the great
oil-holding strata are always regu-
lar, and that the fiat or gently
curved arches are much more apt to
contain oil than the sharply convex
ones which are nearly always more
or less broken, split or fractured
at or near the crown of the arches
anticlinal axes, or inverted troughs,
allowing the oil to pass right up
and be disseminated, dissipated in
to the miscellaneous stra a
above and therefore worthless as
the maker of any Oil King.
The upward hydrostatic pressure
has been relieved by the fractures
of the broken back anticlinals and
these oil springs are always slug
gish from the reversed or downward
drainage of oil, and consequently
these oil springs have usually very
little oil behind or below them
but serve as purpose for verdant
operators and wildcat Spectators.
However, one arch may be
broken backed and others beneath
may be full bonanzaed with oil; so.
that-it is worth while to drill on
promising ground critically ex-
amined and showing approved in
dications. Sometimes also one
end, or a limited portion of an
arch is broken slightly leaving
the other end miles away, intact
or filled with heavy lubricating oil,
the lighter and more volatile oils
h vi n g evoporated ages ago
through fractures.
A country may be to all APP
pearances entirely barren of oil,
and show to a novice no favorable
signs, and yet it may be on the
back OF wide spreading under
ground anticlinal, so gently curved
and fiat that no one has noticed,
and requiring the use of delicate
instruments to determine it is there.
Let us hope that one of these,
(Which are most seductive occur
rences of oil, producing over wide
strips of territory along their axis,
where as the broken ones are risky
and the sharper arches yield oil /
only along narrow strip hard to
hit) may be penetrated by the
resolute Nogales company now
organizing to drill their promising
fields.
May | be permitted in closing
to also express the hope that oil
will be struck here as a very much (
needed cheap fuel for power in
your surrounding mines of great +
extent and richness, both north (
and Sonora, and if oil is struck.
the facetious wish is left with all
your citizens that a well known
Standard animal may not get all
the feed in the trough, and too
many of the said animals traits
and characteristics may not be
