Short Kings and Tall Queens.

Many European monarchs are Of
shorter stature than their queens.
George v. is several inches shorter
than Queen Mary. The German en-
press is slightly taller than the kaiser;
and it is alleged that when they are
being photographed together William
sees that the queen takes seat while
ne himself stands.
The car of all Russias is by no
means as tall as his consort, and AL
ionso Of Spain is said to be a head
shorter than Queen Victoria Eugenie
The King of Italy hardly reaches to
the shoulders of his Montenegrin wife.
The queen of Denmark, too, is taller

and the king Of the Belgians. The

The most excitement since the
palmy days of4he Glenn Pool is now
on at Cleveland. Oklahoma. The
Miliken oil Comapny drilled the big
we'll located on the center Of the
west line of the Booher farm in sec
tion 19-21-S, little deeper and since
then the well has been making around
so barrels an hour, actually starting
off at SO barrels for the first few
hours. 1t naturally has started a lot
of excitement and such well as this
are few and far between. Louis
Helm, who is associated with John
n. Milliken and Col Newell in the
property, says that while the com
pany is naturally very proud of the
big gusher over in the Cleveland pool
they feel equally proud Of another
gusher which they have recently com
pleted on the property of the Vinita
Producing and Refining Company;
this time it's water we'll. lie seems
that the city of Vinta for a long
time has been supplied with water
from artesian wells, and the refinery
people decided to put down a deep
test to see If the water belt extended
out to the refinery property which 10
located a mile west of town. The re-
suit has been very satisfactory and
nice clear water in great volume, ga
degrees temperature, with more than
enough to supply the needs of the
refinery, is now had. Mr.. Helm fur
ther staets that in the Chelsea dis
trict there is much anxiety to sell
oil TO his refining company, the in
centive being the five-cent premium
over the market price which the COM
pany are paying, and that the COM,
pany is taking 1900 barrels a day, 500
barrels of which has been going into
storage, but viii soon be used by the
refinery when improvements now
nearly completed are finished.

In the vicinity of Okmulgee there
is also great excitement and prices
for leases are soaring skyward; tor
instance, for a 6O-acre piece adjacent
to the Morton farm, where Harry Will
son and others have recently COM
pleted 200 barrel well at only three
feet in the sand, the owner is asking
$2A000.00, about twice as much as
any one could possibly be justified
in paying, especially at she forma
tons in this district are decidedly
erratic. AS heretofore reported in
this column, the Devonian people are
offsetting the Wilson well two ways;
one on the Rolla Alexander and the
other on the Sammy Swimmer. The
location is near the center of Sec
