Five boy scouts and their scoutmaster

sore from a 100-mile hike from Columbus
to F'airburn, few miles out of Atlanta.
Scoutmaster e. Day Wood of Troop 5,
led the quintette on the long march He
has "a boys in his troop, which is his Sun
day school class. but only six of them
could get their mothers consent for such
a tramp as this. One fell by the wayside
40 miles out of Columbus, defeated by
brand new shoe and a sore heel, but the
five others stood the grind like men. They
are Charles Kite, Guy Thornton, Charles
Clayton, Hover Allen and r. H Armand
known to his companions as Rough
House"
The scouts left Columbus Saturday aft
ernoon and hiked eleven miles to the Al
mand place, where they camped out all
night Then they resumed their march
taking it by easy stages. and camping ev-
cry night They arrived in Fairburn late
yesterday afternoon, were greeted by sew
eral brother scouts of that suburb, spent
the night in the homes of their hosts and
took the interurban into Atlanta today
NO were not so very sore, said
Scoutmaster Wood. I'VE are going to see
the town from end to end. Three of the
boys have never seen Atlanta Wen take

You know tf&tudy of trees and stones are

EAGER To HEAR
FIELDER s STORY

COLU MBIA, S. c., June 2O.-The an
aouncement that Thomas B. Fielder, of
Atlanta, will respond to a summons
from the legislative committee inves-
lgating the old dispensary system of
South Carolina, particularly with re-
spect to the charges of graft in it's OPP
Grafton brought by MAYOR Grace of
Charleston against Governor Cole L.
Blease, has been received with great
satisfaction by South Carolinans gen
orally
Governor Blease is now in the midst
of a campaign for reelection to the
governorship and the sustaining of
Graces charges against him unques
tionably would affect his prospects of
election most adversely, whereas a col
lapse of those charges as surely would
greatly aid him in his fight.
For more than a year particular i'm
portance has been attached to the
question of whether Mr.. Fielder would
appear as a witness In the proceedings
which started in winding up the old
state dispensary."
About a year ago Mr.. Fielder, in a
card published in the press Of the two
states, made drastic charges against
the governor of South Carolina' por-
lions of which were in direct connec-
ton with the old state dispensary and
the situations which developed after 1t
was put out of existence.
Whether or not it so develops in the
end. Mr. Fslder's testimony is looked
10 b1V the
most important in connection with all
the dispensary investigation, and the
state undoubtedly will watch with in
tense interest the outcome of the meet
ing in Augusta, Ga, on July between
the investigating committee and the
Atlanta attorney

WYOMING OIL HAS
BEEN INVESTIGATED

The Lander and Salt Creek oil fields
of Wyoming are the subject OF bulle-
tin-No. 452-which has just been reis-
sued by the United States geological sur
Nev. Oil was discovered In this field by
Bonneville in 1888. but until 1867 ii was
practically unknown except to hunters
and trappers The first drilling was
done in 1888, and although the wells were
productive they were, on account OF
Keen competition, soon abandoned. For
Some time the wells remained packed
but the oil that flowed from them
through leaks was utilized to some ex-
tent by the ranchers for miles around
as lubricant and by the gold mines
and -four mills for steam making. Re-
Gently operations al the wells have been
resumed on more extensive scale
The oil is adapted to several uses. IL
forms an excellent fuel. comparing fav~
orably with the Texas or California oils
and is now employed for that purpose
in practically all the development work
in the Little Popo Agie district of these
fields, Some Of ii can be used in Its
raw state as a lubricant, though in gen
eral il is not suitable for that purpose
AS tho oil contains a heavy asphalt base
il is good for oiling roads.
Perhaps the most interesting well in
the Salt Creek oil field is one drilled IN
1910. which struck oil under pressure in
shale at a. depth Of 1876 feet. This well
yielded an unusually large amount of oil

Utah Copper Earnings.

tember II is expected that Utah will be
producing close 10 $50, 900 pounds OF
copper year, and with an equity IN
Nevada Consolidated's production Of 30,
100000 pounds. the former will have a
total output Of 1S5, 600, 000 a year, at a
cost Of, so it's representatives claim, 4.
cents pound This would mean net
earnings, on an average OF only Il cents
of approximately $3.50. 900, or sS33 q
share In this connection, however
Utah's oVerhurden charges should not be
forgotten. An average of Is cents a
pound would mean $4,000, 900 more per
year in earnings for Anaconda and S.

W|NCF|ELD IS SURE
OF NEVADA S FUTURE
Looks for Important Finds to
Be Made During the
Present Year.

There are few men who know the state
OF Nevada better than George Wingfield
Of Goldfield. for not only by personal In
vestsgation bat through his engineers he
has been examining hundreds OF mining
groups throughout the state each year
for four or five years past. The follow
ing interview given by MIR. WinSfleld,
therefore will have more weight with
the world than il II Was merely state
ment OF a man determined to stand by
his commonwealth despite conditions.
Wingheld Is an optimist, but only when
conditions are exactly right does ne ad-
n,it this in print He says TO a Reno
paper:
"There arc better chances for mining
in Nevada than in any other state In the
union, for the reason that we have not
as many people here and the state has
many important discoveries to be made
here In the next yenr. The papers in
Reno do not give great amount OF
space to the mining in the southern part
OF the state and they do not give any
quotations In any of their issues
II consider that the mining business
is on q better foundation than 1t has
ever been before. and we have gotten rid
OF the widcatters. and IL is orr duty to
keep them out OF the state. We need
good. legitimate mining men. but VIC DO
not need and will not tolerate any OF the
w-i1dcatters that were here q few years
ago.
"F,rom all that l can learn Tonopall
is looking better that 1t ever did before
and the general public is taking great
interest In the camp. I expected TO be
in and around Tonopall for several days.

tr1cts is about thiYty-fire miles long and
twenty six miles Wide and covers about
140n square miles, II lies in the north

the Nevada plat eau, at q. general eleva-
ton OF about 5000 feet. and contains parts
OF two grand features OF this western
country-tile Great Basin on the south
and the Snake River valley on the
north-and the intervening divide crosses
its southern corners.
The rugged character of the JHrbdGe
district is indicated by Its name which,
Mr. Schrader tells us. is derived from
the Indian name. ''Ia-lla- bich. mean
