barrels q day. 1t was not thought the
drih was near the Eusher sand. and no
preparations had been made to receive
the oil. As 9 result. 1t Is now going
all over the country. The stream Is
shooting 500 feet over the derrick. The
oil is flowing In = stream down = near
by canyon, two miles from the derrick,
and a large force of man with scrapers
Is being kept busy throwing up bull
wnrks of dirt to stop the tide.
There was blowout In the well = few
days ago, after which 1t sanded up. II
was not believed that the gusher sand
had been reached. the hole then being
2IOO feet down. However, when the
dixie was broken out Sunday the well
began to flow with great rush and
soon had the crown block beaten off
the derrick. Nothing can be done to
control the flow now until the well
sands up.
The well is about a mile east of the
big Santa Fe we'll which brought in a
gusher year ago. The oil tests at 22
gravity.

On Tuesday at about O'Clock a. IN
Mrs. ] r. Thomas, after brief Hines:
entered into the rest that ia prepared
for the people of God None but those
who have sat in the shadow OF a great
bereavement can fully weigh such u
sorrow as this. Those who have gon G
down into the valley OF suffering and
stood by the side OF a loved one, as
hope after hope dropped away as the
petals fall from fading flower, know
that such anguish cannot find solace in
the tenderest words She who has
gone forth could not be supported on
her solitary path by any earthly friend
The husband with devoti N few m n
are capable of, whose strength W s
given sweetly, tenderly to this prec-
ious wife and mother, whose heroic de-
votion never faltered, could not detain
her by the clasp Of earthly love hut
after the last word had been spoken,
the last sign Of recognition was gone,
q look Of peace settled on her face
which proclaimed victory, and he knew
she was resting on mighty arm.
Well may her children cherish her
memory as precious legacy and we
fain would say word OF comfort t.
the stricken ones, we can but let our
tears flow in sympathy with theirs and
point to them the promise "At even
tide it shall be light"

Blue Mound school Notes

At the close OF the school week end
ing Feb. Is, 1910, Blue Mounds eh-
rollment was l03 pupils.
New pupils enrolled the past week
Charley Morris and Harlin Munger.
The attendance the past week ha
been very irregular on account of the
severe weather. Only a very few ol
the pupils ventured out last Wednes-
day and SO we dismissed school ant
went home.
We would like to urge the parent
in this district II possible 40 keep th'
larger boys in school regular durinl
the spring months. We realize tina
their help is badly needed on the farm
during these months and that IL
quite a sacrifice to do without their
help. still, it will be very embarrassing
for the boys to be In the same grade
with smaller pupils another year, jus,
because they were not able to stay H.
school and finish up the work of theil
grades. While it may mean littl
loss for the parents to do without thi,
help, think what a gain. financially, il
will be for the boy who finishes his
school work successfully. Surely
nothing that a parent could leave his
child would be of SO much value as /,
good education. As Franklin said
"If man empties his purse into his
head, no man can take ii from him, a.
investment in knowledge always pay
the best interest"

was held last Tuesday evening The

Preside heights and more win soon be

It was only recently that Mr.. and

brothers house in the north line of
Jackson street east of Maple. The To-

The building is designed by Architect
aoughton Sawyer and will be in the
Georgian style. It viii be built of
Harvard red brick in English cross

These new homes add the finishing
touches to what is probably the most
successful effort ever made to create
a high class residence district out of
raw acreage. AS late as five years ago
this district was vacant land known as
the old Tibbetts tract
Baldwin & Howell appreciated the
natural beauty of the tract and pro-
ceeded to develop it at great expense.
1t is nearly all built up now in way
that is surprise even to the devel-
opers themselves. The splendid homes
and landscape effects produced in the
terrace have caused values in all the
adjoining streets to advance greatly
and have stimulated the building of
fine homes throughout that vicinity.
Throughout the Preside heights and
terrace district the tendency In home
building is away from the old style of
wooden construction to the newest
form of brick, stone and concrete con-
struction along the most modern and
artistic lines. This is completely

The San Francisco call., 1910-07-30

In the annual report of the Mission
promotion associations committee on
commercial development, which was
adopted by the association at its last
meeting. there is outlined a plan of
action which will insure an increase
in realty values throughout the Mis-
sion and the stimulation of business
activity in the commercial center of
the district.
The report calls attention to the
numberless vacant manufacturing sites
along the bay shore line which are
destined to become occupied by manu-
featuring plants when the Islais creek
landlocked harbor is completed and
provision made for the immense
amount of commerce that will arrive
in San Francisco on the completion of
the Panama canal
To make these sites accessible the
committee will devote its energies to
the creation of main traffic arteries
between the commercial, manufacture
ing and residential sections of the city.
AS start in the work it has secured
the betterment of conditions on Six
teenth street east of Harrison TO the
bay. The committee recommends the
opening of Seventeenth street east of
Kentucky. a portion that is now closed
by the Southern Pacific company, TO
