 From the numerous rooms which make up tho editorial sauctum there rolls one 'D0uurrwclfcrr' and "Ver- dammit" after another. The managing editor orders q small sheet, not much larger than a handbi!i, hastily printed, that will tell the subscribers why they will not receive their paper that morn ing.
 TEis is a scene which has taken place frequently in Nienncsc newspa- per offices lately. One afternoon re- gently the editions of five evening pa- pers were conf~cutcd. Probably no cd itors in the world .an tell as many in- tcrcsting stories of news that never reached their readers as the Eicnnese.
 From an American viewpoint of a free press thc Austrian press laws, press censorship and "confscation ap- poratus" is about the most absurd and anticipated institution in existence. Apparently it was created largely for the purpose of keeping the truth from the public.
 In Austria hools, pictures, iIIustrat- ed catalogues, price lists, haudbiIls, ad- VcrtiSCmuUi~ anal advertising literature newspapers. periodicals and publica- tions which appear occasionally, signs and sfruDoarIs. posDrrs-in fact. every thing that conveys meaning to the mind by means of type. pictures or symbols is subject to censorship. Until recently even private calling or visit mg" cards were subject to censorship. The printer had ro lay proof of card before the press court before he could deliver the order.
 Any district OF superior court may constitute itself a "prc~s court to pass upon and order the confsnatton of any newspaper in ifs iugisdiction.-Nienna Cor New York Tribune.

DRILLING FOR OIL
IN CADD0 FIELDS
EXTENSIVE OPERATIONS ON THE
PROPERTY OWNED BY
LUMBER COMPANIES.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Shrevep0rt.-Judging by the drilling
operations under way and planned on
land owned by lumber companies in
Northwestern Louisiana, some Of the
timber concerns are going to make a
good living whether the yellow pine
trade is injured by the European war,
the threatened railroad strike, or not.
The drilling Is in the vicinity of pro-
ducing wells, and there is reason to
believe that some of the leases will
prove profitable.
The Standard Oil Company is pre-
pairing to sink a well in section 1918
II, Red river parish. on land owned
by the Chicago Coal and Lumber Com
pany. In this parish the past few
months the Gulf Refining Oil Company
has completed three producers and
other indications are encouraging.
The Independent Oil Company is
building a derrick to drill on a lease
from the Frost-Johnson Lumber Com
pa section 1920. DeSoto parish,
in itch thousands Of barrels Of oil
dali are produced.
L1'Soto a not been fully explored,
n here appears to be some chance
for al ost every well sunk.
Another lumber company is the Rob
erts-Brown Company, on whose prop
erty, in section 5-11.12, Sabine parish
the Gulf Refining Company is drilling
This Is just south Of Desoto parish

Dental Department Of Tulane.

New Orleans.-There Is much inter-
est among the dental fraternity re-
garding the future management Of ths
dental department Of Tulane Univer.
sity. The university took over the
New Orleans College Of Dentistry a few
years ago, assuming obligations and
making it a department Of the uni
versity. DR.. Andrew G. Fredrichs, q
leader in dental organization in the
city, was dean Of the college and re-
tanned that place under the university
management. Recently, however, a
large dental clinic has been organized
at the Charity hospital, which re-
quires much time Of the dean Of the
department at Tulane besides the time
required for his private practice. 1t
is now reported that DR.. Fredrichs has
decided to give up the d~eanship.
