Walter Harwell land was L.
100 feet deep Thursday night. Moth

The Slick Il Jones test seventeen
miles west Of Sapulpa has been COM
pleted to the Mississippi lime, the
depth being something more than o.
500 feet with only a light showing
of oil on top of the lime. 1t may be
regarded as n failure unless they can
make well In the shallow sand
which was found at depth of about
1900 feet. This sand is said to be
about 10 feet thick. If so 1t looks as
though 1t might become productive
after shot.

lhree masked men entered a saloon
at Inlay, shot the owner dead and
wounded his wife in the back. She
is believed to be fatally injured. The
robbers took $1,000 in cash and de.
parted.
A small part of human body was
found quarter OF mile from the
scene of the disastrous explosion in
the smelter Stag dump near FL Paso
This is the first trace found of the
three men known to have been in the
wrecked tunnel.
Hungry and thirsty, but otherwise
unharmed, nine miners, entombed for
twenty hours two miles under ground
in the Morning mine. at Wallace,
Idaho, were reached and given food
and water through a small opening.
by the untiring efforts of rescuers.
1t has been figured up in Los An
geles trat Jim Jeffries is worth about
$275,000, invested in real estate and
farm lands. .Jeffries, it is said, is
through with public exhibitions of any
kind, and from now on he will lead
the life of moneyed man.
The grand jury in the Los Angeles
Times explosion case returned twenty
two indictments. All of the indict-
ments charge murder or connection
with that crime. 1t is not likely that
the names of any of the indicted per.
sons will be made public until after
arrests have been made. 1t is be-
l,eved a large number of San Fran
oiscans have been indicted. Whole.
sale murder the outcome OF dyna-
mite plot, is understood to be the
charge set forth in all the indict-
ments, but it is believed not more
than three or four men are named in
the true bills.
