BRITISH NAVAL DISCIPLINE
How 1t is Chief Cause of Discomfort in the
Kings Great War Marine

Editor Star: by order of the civil
courts the British admiralty recently
paid $35,6OO damages to the parents OF
a cadet who had been dismissed from
the Royal Naval College'at Osborne as
thief and a forger-charges of which
he was afterwards proven innocent.
The admiralty was severely scored in
Parliament and by the press. Now
comes a startling criticism of naval
administration and discipline, pub
lshed under the title of Our Fight
ing Seamen" CLionel YeXIey). The
author states, among other and more
specific charges, that the men on many
of the ships are discontinued because
of the irritating, unreasonable disci-
pine, or, to use his own vivid EXPIRES

then find out why an obsolete tattle-
ship stands at the head in the order of
merit for shooting and some of our lat

the gun is helpless unless he enjoys
the intelligent cooperation Of his gun
crew, and friction among the human
element may render nugatory as a
fighting machine the finest battleship
ever built. This no doubt was what

New Wells Brought In.

Several valuable new wells have
been brought in within the last few
days in the Midway, that seemingly
inexhaustible territory. No well of
the Eagle Creek Company blew out
last Tuesday and began to make 1909
barrels per day The well is 1912 feet
deep. The blowout took place while
the tools were being pulled out of the
hole. The tools were about so feet
from the bottom when the gas started
and shot them over the derrick. When
the drill fell it plunged to depth OF
seven feet into the hard ground. The
oil is of 26.4 gravity. Clarence J.
Berry is one of the heaviest stock
holders.
Another gusher broke loose Tuesday
in the South Coalinga field on the
property of the Canadian Coalinga IN
Wartham canyon, section Is, 21-I5,
heretofore considered wildcat terri
tory. The oil is said to be of % gray
ity and for the first few hours it
flowed at the rate of 10000 barrels pei
day. The we'll sanded up after flowing
for three hours. The oil is said to be
of 2S gravity, which makes it very
valuable for refining purposes. The
gas pressure was so strong that it
threw oil forty feet over the crown
block.
