OIL INDICATIONS.

The discovery of the oil indica-
lions southwest of Reno some weeks
ago, has developed into quite an ex-
citement. Similar indications have
been found north and south of the
river in that locality and claims have
been staked.
A derrick has been built on the
first discovery and the work of sink
ing well is in progress. The pro-
moters of the project appear to be
very confident even to the extent of
expecting to strike gusher at any
time.

Controversy.


Spencer, May 1.-THE Methodist
people here have finally gotten together
on the church proposition For the
past year or more there has been more
or less agitation on the problem of
building a new church and ,oftimes it
has grown into heated controversies,
and much hard feeling has been prev
alent turnout the whole vicinity. The
matter came to climax last fall,
east was scheduled for lecture at an
entertainment held att the church.
Preparations were made and advertise
ments We're put out for an evangelical
lecture, and a large congregation as
sembled, expecting it to, be treat,
but it was then that fire was kin
died that has been smouldering ever
since. 1t soon became evident that
the talented speaker had been obtained
by the building faction to overwhelm
the congrega tioss at an unexpected mo-
ment, as the speaker lost no time urg-
ing the necessity Of a new building
and laying bare the unfitness Of the
old structure whichs was still in COM
paratively good condition, except that
it was hardly considered capacious
enough. Many of the members took
offense at this procedure and promptly
withdrew their support to the church,
joining other churches of the city.
The situation has now Gained down,
and it has been agreed upon that a
new church is to be erected this sum-
mer. The structure is to be 59xS3, but
with a battlement over the main en-
trance in the northeast corner The
and trimmings will be of
Bedford stone, and the walls Of brick,
faced with brown mottled granite
brick.
The basement will contain a boiler
room, kitchen, dining room, reception
room, ladies' rest room, brotherhood
room, and toilet rooms. The main floor
will have an auditorium As feet square,
with corner pulpit and circular pews.
A Sunday school room together with
other rooms adjacent to the auditorium
will be so arranged to be opened up
and added to the auditorium when
needed The total seating capacity
will be about $1,000 and the church is
to cost 100000, without the fixtures
or furniture.
The work on the new building is to
be begun in six weeks, and it will be
ready for dedication not later than
Jan. I, 1908. Barber & Klutz Of Knox
willie, Tenn, are the architects.

ming, action was taken in regard to
raising funds to secure terminal facil-
tiles in this city for the proposed Des
Moines, Winterset & Creston electric
interurban road The members of the

something which would be Of value to

should be shared by ALL
