OIL EXCITEMENT
 INTENSE AT MOHAWK

TUCSON, Ariz., April 2S-Mohawk, which Is located about forty-five miles east of Yuma on the Southern Pacific, is having a big oil excitement at the present time.
 This information was brought to Tucson today by W. Nj. Tanner, a local mining man. who returned from a trip to Yuma and Mohawk.
 According to Mir. Tanner the entire country around Mohawk for a nun Der of miles has been taken up by private parties, and each one of the land claimants has visions of wealth in the event that an oil vein is struck in the district.
 Thus far TO oil has been found The few attempts previously at drill ing wells have not been continued 70 any depth as capital for the under takings has been shy heretofore.
 An English syndicate, however, has become interested in the region now and announcement has just been made that $25,00G will be expended in drilling on the property owned by the English corporation. The wells that will be put down will be sunk to g depth of more than 1000 feet in the search for oil.
 Attention has been repeatedly ac tracted to Mohawk by reports that there is every indication there of its being an oil region, and experts who have looked over the district have given it as their belief that the sec ton will be found to be big oil and gas district.

MILE ROCK LIGHT
STORY OF BUILDING OF THIS
 REMARkAsLE STATION.
All Who Enter or Depart from the Harhor of San Francisco Mark It as One of the Sights sf
 the Passage.

The story of the building of the ia, nous Mile Rock lighthouse. which passengers always observe as they en- ter and depart from the harbor of San Francisco. is an interesting and in some respects thrilling one-replste with human daring and danger.
 This little station was completed and the light first displayed early in January, 1906. More than a year was consumed in the construction of the station. For the past half century Mile Rock has besn a constant menace to shipping. Every vessel entering or departing from the Golden Gate during darkness or heavy weather ran the gauntlet of danger.
 Mile Rock stands just one mile from the south mainland, opposite the en- trance to San Francisco harbor, and about three miles from the North Heads. It was originally a mere pin nacle of sharp, ragged rocks, Jutting just above the oceans surface. At ex- treme low tide the points of the rock were only IA feet above the sea. At high tide the rock was practically sub merged, and during stormy weather was constantly waveswept.
 To construct light station on such a foundation was certainly very diff hcult and perilous task-next to an engineering impossibility.
 Congress appropriated s1oo.ooo for the work. but no contractor, after knowing all the difficulties and dan gers of the work, liked to undertake such task, and much delay followed before the contract was let It was finally awarded James McMahon of San Francisco, who at once began op- erstions.
 No regular skilled workmen could be persuaded to engage in such haz- ardous work, and so finally Contractor MeMahon had to hire raw seamen, for he could secure none others. These unskilled men were set to work under an experienced foreman. and gradual

ly initiated into what was necessary. These "tars" had but little fear of the sea and it's perils.
 From the original shape of Mile Rock it was impossible to build up a perfectly round cylinder; but 1t was constructed in an elliptical form, 25 feet the narrow way and 40 feet the long way. The metal plates of which this huge cylinder was built were 2k by feet in diameter and five eighths of an inch in thickness. They were very strongly bolted with steel rivets. As rapidly as the cylinder was built upward all the interior space was filled with strongly reinforced con crete, very firmly tamped. This cyl finder foundation was constructed 42 feet high-thus making a solid con crete mass 25x40x42 feet. More than 1900 barrels of cement alone were used in building this foundation, and many tons of steel plates.
 The concrete, while in a pliant state, settled all around the ragged points of the rocks that jutted far upward inside the immense cylinder; and uniting with them thus formed an anchorage that was simply impregnable.
 From the top of this massive founda- ton the gradually tapering super structure rises 56 feet-making the total distance from the mean sea level to the light about 100 feet. The upper part of the station Is of structural steel massively anchored into the con crete foundation.
 It Is a noteworthy fact that during all the time work was in progress on the station-oyer a year-not a life was lost, no person was even injured, and no sort of accident occurred to re- tard the construction. Considering the constant perils that beset the un- dertaking the record is remarkable one.
