MAN HUNTING EDUCATOR
SURRENDERS TO CUPID
LoIaheI House, B. A., A. M, ETC.,
WedS Professor

NEW YORK, July 17.--Despite her
continued avowals that she would
never never marry, and her often ex-
pressed contempt for the sterner sex.
Miss Lolabel House, B. A., University
of Nashville; A. M, Chicago univer-
sitn; Phi. D., University of Pennsyl
vania, and fellow of American history,
University of Pennsylvania, also
strong advocate of women'S S rights, was
married to DIR. Robert Anderson Hall
in the Parkside Presbyterian church,
Lenox road Flatbush, by the Rev.
John D. Long yesterday morning. The
bridegroom is a professor in the Uni
versity of North Carolina.
The wedding will be a great surprise
to the teachers and students at Eras-
mus hall. Dr. House taught history in
Erasmus hall for eight and a half
years. She was honorary president of
both the boys and girls debating So
cietis and never lost an opportunity
to advance arguments for woman suf-
frage. She was very popular. Last
year she was appointed assistant prin-
cipal of the Newtown high school,
Queens borough.
Her mother, Mrs. Willie Durham, was
city superintendent of schools in Waco,
Texas. DR.. House taught under her
mother in 1898 and 1899 and there met
DR.. Hall. She renewed the acquaint-
ance last summer, with the result that
DR.. Hall soon changed her views.

YELLOW TIGER FOLLOWS
LEDGE OF RICH METAL

GOLDFIELD, July H.-Development
is progressing steadily on the Yellow
Tiger under the management of ]. H.
Bates, who has long been connected
with the property The main drift on
the 700-leyel Is now out $40 feet from
the shaft. and is following a big ledge
that shows large punches of quartz
and dacite nodules, ranging from the
size OF a marble to a mans head.
There is more or less iron sulphides
scattered through the boulders, but
assays are still low.
Mr.. Bates figures that it will require
from sixty to 100 feet further to get
under the winze on the 600-levei in
which good values were found about
two years ago, and from the present
showing in the lower drift and in the
winze on the 600-level, he feels conf
dent that he will yet develop a mine
on the Yellow Tiger.
Although assays of from s35 to $40
were obtained in the winze, work was
abandoned here on account of the
heavy flow of water. The shaft was
then sunk another hundred feet and a
drift started to get under the winze,
which point is not far distant.

From Mines and Oil Fields
CHESTERFIELD COPPER
MAKES RAPID PROGRESS

TUCSON, July 17.-Uncle Will Rob
erts, manager of the Chesterfield COP
per company, is in the city and re-
ports fine progress at his mine.
The lower level of ATS feet has been
made and drifting has been started to
make the mineral chute discovered at
the 400-foot level, forty eight feet south
of the shaft. Manager Roberts expects
to reach the ore chute within ten days.
He will then drain water from the
mineral and begin to back stope
Ore shipments started last week and
Mr. Roberts thinks that he viii be
able to make regular shipments. Twen-
ty men are employed and the camp Is
full of activity The Chesterfield as
steady producer will date from July
8, 1910, said Mr.. Roberts.
Chesterfield and EsperanZa camps
are now entitled to a school district,
as they have forty children of school
age. 1t is believed that an election
precinct is also due, as there are prob
ably more than forty voters. An appli-
cation for a postoffice has also been
made.
Another large load of supplies went
out yesterday for the Gold Bullion Min
ing company A good report comes in
from this mine. Drifting and cross
cutting on the 300-foot level is now in
progress and all the work is in good
mineral ground.

HISTORY OF KULDJA IS
RECALLED BY TRAVELLER
Show the Descendants of Exiled
Christians from Chinese
Town Now Prosperous

LONDON, July 17.--The correspond
ent of the London Times, who is traV'
cling across China and Turkestan
says:
In KuIdjah there is a small Christian
community whose history is one OF
more than usual interest. Readers OF
the entertaining narrative of Abbe Hue
will remember his frequent references
to the persecution of the Christians in
the reigns of Tung Cheng and Chan
Lung, when Christians from every
province in China who refused to apos-
tatiZe were sent to exile in Iii. At
first they were branded on the cheek,
a punishment which was afterWard
discontinued; otherwise they were not
unkindly treated, and were allowed a
considerable measure of liberty, but
were forbidden to return to China. For
more than a century the community re-
mained without pastor, but in 1861,
after the Joint occupation of Peking,
the bishop of Shensi, Mgr. Ciais, sent
a native priest to seek the descendants
of the faithful On the outbreak OF
the Mohammedan insurrection in 1853
the priest disappeared. He was muir
dered by a guide whom he had trust
ed, and the Christians were again With
out a pastor. During the insurrectlon
the community was much reduced IN
NUMBERS. SOHl6 Oh lllG lilCl WIZ iA'AASN'
many of the children and number OF
the women were carried off by the
MussulmanS. o,.
Russia occupied the region in 1871
and prevented any further massacre
and compelled the restitution of some
of the women. But Russia did not
favor the establishment of any Roman
Catholic missionary, and it was not
until the restoration of the region to
the Chinese in November, 1882, that q
foreign missionary was allowed to come
here. At the end of that year Pere
Hendricks, a Dutchman, arrived from
Europe, and he was able to report with
nride that the community, which num-
bered some $50 persons, all told, had
not forsaken the religion for which
their fathers had made such great sac
rifices, but had remained good Chris
tians. One year later three missionary
priests, sent overland by the bishop OF
Kansu, arrived here and established
their mission They were Pere Steene-
man (Dutch), now the superior or the
mission; Pere de Deken (Belgtan), the
famous traveller, who accompanied
Bonvalot and Prince Henri dOrleans
in their journey across Tibet and SUD
seouentlv died in the Congo, and Pere
Janssons (Dutch), the first superior OF
the mission, now a cure in Holland
They belonged to the congregation OF
Schent near Brussels. Work has con-
tinued from that time. The community
is small but numbers some members
of good standing, among them belnS
the largest oil millers of Suiting, de-
scendants of Christians exiled cen

BANK STATEMENT FAVORABLE
Slump of Copper in London Has
Effect on the Ameri-
can Trade
TAssociated Pressl

NEW YORK, July T.-The action Of
the stock market last week indicated
the arrival of the speculation at a
stage Of profit taking with a disposi-
tion to pause and look for further de-
velopments in the shaping of the fu-
ture. Profits for six months have
been on the side of the bears and the
process of realizing therefore involved
some buying Of stocks to cover shorts
This buying went on in the presence of
the unfavorable factors in the situa
tion which had been unforeseen in the
previous short sales.
The anxiety of the uncovered shorts
was manifest in the resistance shown
by the market to factors of positive
depression and which were of sudden
and unexpected development Such
was the false report put in circulation
Of an official statement attributed to
the German foreign office couched in
irritating terms for the United States
government The slump in the price
of copper in London to the lowest price
in years and the suspension of pro-
posed railroad rate advances by the in
terstate commerce commission devel-
oped similar power of resistance. The
course Of the international exchanges
and the promise of a large import
movement of gold were important sus-
tanning influences in the improved
financial feeling The rapid increase
of resources of the London money mar
ket and the recourse plainly open to
New York to secure large amount
of gold in that market afforded as
surance of relief from any threatened
embarrassment. The Saturday bank
statement disclosed the actual surplus
reserve at the extraordinary large fig
ure of $33, 1905 Such a figure pre-
cludes serious anxiety over the fall
demands on the New York money

YANCEY AND GLOBE TIE
UP OPERATIONS IN FIELD

McKITTRICK, July 17-The Globe
Exploration company and Yancey and
Barnsdall have practically suspended
operations. Only one or two strings
are being run, and while no explana-
ton has been 'vouchsafed it is conJec-
tured that these two enterprises, which
were once in combination are hung
lin over matters not yet given out No
official Of either company has been on
the ground for some time.
From an irresponsible source comes
the statement that Yancey, Barnsdall
Drake and the Sweeney brothers have
arranged for a $1,000,000 loan on ten
yesar convertible gold bonds with in
terest at per cent. the principal being

1t has been understood here that
Drake and Sweeney had withdrawn
from the partnership with Yancey and
Barnsdall, putting their holdings into
the Globe Exploration company and
1t is not considered likely that the
latter are making loans to the former.

TUCSON, Ariz., July III. H. Ken
nedy, an aged miner and prospector
we'll known in Tucson. is reported
missing for some months from ms
mining claims near Red Rock, and
the sheriffs office in this city has
been asked to assist in locating him
if he is still alive. The request came
from Deputy Sheriff San McCuen of
Silverbeli, who first wrote to the
sheriff's Office, and came to the city
today partly to make search for the
missing man.
According to the officers statement,
Kennedy departed from his camp sew
erav months ago leaving an assistant
in charge. He failed to state where he
intended going, and no word has since

that he has either wandered out TO
some place in the desert and died of
thirst or starvation, or that he has
somewhere met with foul play. He Is

CALIFORNIA WILL SUPPLY
CONTINENT WITH ALL OIL
Theory Is Advanced That State
Holds Palm of Business
in Entire Country

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July H.
California undoubtedly will, within a
few years be called upon to supply not
only the United States, but practically
the whole North American continent
with Illuminating, lubricating and fuel
oils
A study of the petroleum industry
of the United States shows that the
California oil fields are practically In
their infancy, with production increas-
ing by leaps and bounds, while the
proved oil bearing area is being
augmented daily. The oil fields OF
other sections of the country have
reached their maximum production ano
are on the decline, leaving California
in a class by itself as producer oi
the inflammable fluid.
The total proved petroleum terri
tory of California, according to the
United States geological survey, is 8oC
square miles. or a total of slightly
more than 100000 acres. This area
would accommodate something ike
100, 900 wells. allowing one well to eacf
two and a half acres.
Large as this territory may seem
it is less than half the area proved -tt
be productive in Pennsylvania, thai
state having nearly 1000 square miles
of oil lands. But the thickness of the
oil bearing stratum in California fal
exceeds that of other fields in the
United States, there being, by actua
measurement, over 500 feet of oil sands
in several different sections of this
state whereas in many localities II
the eastern fields the oil bearing
stratum Is only few feet thick. or
account of these dense sands Califor'
mia will be producing oil when eastern
fields are only a memory.
The Pennsylvania oil fields, whicf
are the oldest in the United States
reached their maximum productivenes'
many years ago and have steadily de-
clined until now they are yielding
about a third of the amount produced
at the height of their development
Geologists estimate that only about
two billion barrels remain In thC
ground in that state, while in the
proved fields of California government
biologists estimate the supply in the
ground at eight and a half billion bar
rels. without taking into account new
fields that undoubtedly VIII be dlscoV'
cred in this state. a.
The Ohio-Indiana fields, which RAM
rext in Importance to Pennsylvania
have an area of 2040 square miles anC
the supply in the ground Is placed a
three billion barrels. In Texas ane
Louisiana the fields have an area Of
not more than 800 square miles. only
n small proportion of which now art
to be considered highly productive.
Taking these facts into consideration
II will be readily seen that California
will. a comparatively few years hence
be depended upon TO supply the United
States with illuminating. lubricatint
and fuel oils.

BRITISH CONSOLIDATED
ENTERS THE RED ROCK

COALINGA, July 17.-The British
Consolidated oil corporation, limited,
on section 12, 1915, is over 2T4o feet
deep with SA-inch casing and now in
the red rock. In the old well, 800 feet
to the north, the red rock was encoun-
tered at 1890 feet, fifteen feet thick;
again at $500 feet. ninety feet thick.
This formation prevails in the north
end of the east side field. and Is a
check on every well.
on section 10, 20-14, the derrick on
well No. 2 of the New Era was pulled
in. A new rig has been built and the
well will be cleaned out and put back

PALMER NO. | PRODUCES
1900 BARRELS STEADILY
Report That Famous GuSher Had
Sounded Was Brokers' Plot
to Bear the Market

SANTA MARIA, July 17.-Rumors
ahoat that the famous Palmer No 1
gusher has sanded UP are entirely un-
founded as the report from the pump
ing plant shows an increase over the
production figures of the past few
months rather than falling off.
On good authority it is given out
that this great producer, which has
been in activity for the past two years,
is now showing decided increase In
its daily output. Formerly the esti-
mate was made from the pipes which
carry oil from the sump holes to the
pumping plant and 1T was impossible
to get the exact figures. Since No. 2,
about 200 feet north of the original
producer, has become a big well the
estimate has been taken more direct
than previously, As both wells flow
into the same sump holes.
The figures now show that this old
faithful is gushing at the rate of 1900
barrels of oil daily and that the gas
pressure is increasing In its force.
Very little sand or sediment is heaved
un through the pipe and the possibil-
ity of its sanding up is very remote.
1t was predicted oy many authorities
that the advent of No. would imme-
diately begin the decline of No. 1. This
has been proved to be a mistaken
theory as No. 2 is now doing around
the 0-barrel mark and No. 1 shows
an increase.
Considerable sand is brought up
with the gas pressure in the No.
hole and this tends to give a natural
method of cleaning out the hole. When
this is thoroughly accomplished this
well will resume it's gushing at big
rate and the general belief is that it
will get back to it's former 5000 day
figure.
1t is believed the press reports in
dicating that No. well was sanded up
were instigated by San Francisco
brokers in an effort to bear the stock.

oil on it's march to the sea,
There was one slight accident to
mark the first run of the heavy oil,

cEMEN1s OLD WELL

SANTA MARIA, July 17.-Western
Union No. 80 in the main field has been
successfully cemented off. After
pumping water for two years this we'll
is now doing about seventy barrels of
27 gravity oil day This work was
done by w. F. Scott, the cement expert
employed by the Oil association, and
proves the value of cementing these old
water holes.
Nos. 2S and 26, are to undergo the ce-
