INDIVIDUAL SETS OF CHINA
Can Be Bought Nov Comparatively
cheap-Expenditure Is Consid-
cred a Good One.

A shop here in town which I dis
covered the other day is intended, to
my way of thinking, for the woman
who wishes individual china. Here
they import the PLAIN white china in
the most delicate and beautiful
shapes / have ever seen and decorate
1t to suit the customers ideas, room,
table decorations or anything the Gus
toner chooses And the best point is
that although this work is done beau
tifully in gold and colors which are
lasting and in patterns which are of
unusual beauty to say the least, the
charge is very reasonable.
For instance dinner set of fine
French china, consisting of one hun
dred pieces land the customer may
choose these to a certain extent-that
is, one does not have to buy useless
covered dishes and soup tureens. but
may substitute other pieces) with a
delicate coin gold border and gold
monogram of any style, sells for $50;
and when / compare it with the sets
usually sold at that price only won
der why everybody who has $50 to
spend doesn't order this china. For
there is nothing in better taste than
a simple fine gold bopdered china. and
the individuality of ones monogram
adds greatly to its beauty.-Smart Set.

Alaska RICH IN OIL
Wells Clicked With Debris to Pre-
vent Natura. Flow.
Conflicting Interests Have Long
Sought to Control the Output OF
Petroleum in the Rich Kat
ALA District.

Seattle, Wash.-A strange story
comes from the Kataila region. in
Alaska. Oil wells that were bored
half dozen years ago. and prom
ised great returns in high grade Pc
troleum, were never allowed to be-
come producers because of conflicting
interests that were seeking to drive
each other out. Recently new own
erships have prevailed, and the four
principal wells near the town of Kat
ALA were found to be choked with
debris When the load was taken
out the wells flowed 2,10O barrels OF
oil a day
For two years or more the country
has been discussing the Alaska coal
problem, pro and con, yet scarcely a
word is ever said about the oil
fields which border the great north
ern coal areas. The country at large
hardly realizes that the Alaska oil
fields are the newest to be developed
on the American continent.
The Katalla belt is a strip of land
along the coast of Alaska adjoining
the Copper River delta, and extending
off eastward toward Mt. st. Elias. To
the north is the Boring Lake coal
country, and through this territory oil
seepages are to be found
The Indians of that district had mo-
ticed these seepages, and had spoken
of them to the traders along the
coast, but it remained for Thomas
White, pioneer of Alaska even at
that time, to make the actual discov-
cry of petroleum. He was hunting,
and on the trail Of bear, when he
stumbled across one of these black
pools. To assure himself that he had
found oil he drew out a match,
scratched 1t, and touched the surface
of the pond. Instantly he was re-
warded with proof White made the
first oil location in Alaska, and soon
there was quiet stampede to the

PTYHREE hats, of distinctly different

northern territory. That was Is
years ago.
White went to Alaska in 1889. He
was member of the Israel C. Rus
sell geological expedition that made
the first ascent of Mt. st. Elias Again
he climbed the mountain with thu
Duke d'Abruzzi, when the Italian mo-
bleman wanted to ascend the highest
mountain on the continent. That was
before the discovery of Mt. McKin
ley, in the interior of Alaska.
A number of the early claimants
organized an oil company which in
turn leased to second company
Canadian concern-and this again
leased to a third company, which
finally did the well drilling. But
the last company was to pay a big
sum of money as soon as oil was dis
covered in commercial quantities.
The four wells drilled produced
oil. How much the outside world did
not know, because the three cory
panies began their long struggle to
freeze" out each other. 1t was not
long ago that fourth company came
in and got possession of the "old Eng
lish" property, as it was called, and
opened up the choked wells. Tvs
tons of stuff was taken from one bore,
and the oil in it's exuberance at being
released, carried away the top of the
derrick. Then it settled down to
steady flow of 720 barrels a day. Oil
stood in two of the other wells, but
it was found that when the flow was
started with pump, it continued at
the same rate of its own accord.
Being so light and volatile, wood
containers are useless in handling the
Katalla oil. Therefore iron and steel
receptacles and conveyors were or
dered, and now are being placed in po-
sition. One tank of 10000 barrels is
being erected at tidewater on Con-
troller bay, and two others, one of
1000 barrels and the other of 5000
barrels. will stand at the wells, about
eight miles from the big loading tank.
The distance is covered by an iron
pipe that will deliver $500 barrels

skirt Pads.

Some dressmakers frequently have
great difficulty in making skirts cut
with the raised waist line hang
straight in front at the line of the
normal waist
At this point the skirt breaks and
is apt to show an ugly wrinkle, espe-
cially when the wearer is seated.
This can be avoided by making a
small oblong pad OF the same material
as the skirt and inserting it directly
In front. The pad Is made four inches
long and two inches wide and Is
placed lengthwise with the skirt. It
can be tucked In place.

The public has been wondering
and enquiring whether or not Mr..
Mahoney is going TO put another
story on his big building and the
GRAPHIC is pleased TO answer that
question in manner that will de-
light the people.
The second story will be added at
the present time and will be divided
into 2l Office rooms with outside
windows in all Of them, together
with steam heat and a lavatory.
The second story on the side OF the
GRAPHIC Office will contain a 7-foot
court for the purpose Of skylights
for the first floor and 10 provide
light and air in case of the erection
of a high building on the north.
There will be laid something like
10000 feet of conduit for electric
wires, the pipes forming actually a
part of the reinforcement. The
first floor will be a modernly
equipped store and will have lava
tories for both gentleman and lad
les. The Office rooms above will be
separated north and south by cor
ridor, each of the rooms being con.
nected by doors, to be used at pleas.
ure by the occupants. The offices
can be leased singly or in suites.
The first floor walls east and
south will be mainly of terra Gotta
and plate glass, the cement columns
being handsomely faced. Foreman
James A. Turney, who is familiar
with the finest buildings in the
Southwest, says it will be excelled
by none in any of the cities. The
upper story will be faced with gray
pressed brick and will be as hand.
some as modern architecture can
make it.
The stairway leading to the sec.
ond story will face Gold avenue in
the northeast corner of the build
ing and will be made of concrete,
in conformity with all other parts
of the structure, making building
absolutely fire proof.
