he had just returned from Tulsa
where he had been called by MI
Campbell, thed riller He stated that
all indications as given by Mr.. Fish
or the foreman at the Saltwater Oil
and Gas company's well showed that
we are on top Of a big gasser. The
gas was topped Sunday at 2,ol6 feet,
asked him how strong it was and
he said strong enough to throw l,S0e
feet OF water out OF the hole. lie
stated, however. that they had 4
crooked hole, and it would take sew
eral days to straighten it and set the
casing down to caprock. The 6-inch
casing is now at 2,0o6 feet. 10 feet
above the gas, and the bad hcle is
between the casing and the gas.
Before giving this out drove to
the we'll this morning and talked with
the head driller, who was on tour
Sunday. He stated that while drill
inga small amount of gas had show
cd up and drilling had at once been
topped and they had since been en-
deavorng to straighten the hole SO
as to get the casing to the bottom
lie would not say how long that would
take, Campbell and his foreman
Fisher, are expected at the well to
day, and Won Tackey as soon as the
hole is straight and casing set SC
they can drill in am giving this

YEARS HAD LEFT THEIR MARK
Great Artistic Model for Divine Face
ssrved Later In Depletion OF
That Of JUDAS

On the wall of an old monastery In
Milan hangs the famous Last Sup
per" of Leonardo da vincL 1t is said
that this artist, in painting the faces
of the apostles, studied the counte
nances of good men whom he knew.
When he was ready to peint the race
OF Christ he could find none that would
satisfy his conception After years OF
careful search, says the Strand Mag
azine. the painter happened to meet
one Pietro Bardinelli, a choir-boy OF
exquisite voice, belonging to the ca
thedral. Being struck by the beautiful
features and tender manner that be-
spoke an angelic soul. the artist In
duced the boy to be the study for the
divine face.
All was done carefully and reverent
ly, but the picture was yet incom-
plete, for the face of Judas was abb
sent. Again the painter set about in
search of a countenance. Years passed
before his search was rewarded and
the picture finally completed. AS the
artist was about to dismiss the miser-
able and degraded wretch who had
been his awful choice. the man looked
up at him and said:
You have painted me before"
With amazement, the painter learned
that the man was Pietro Bardinelli
During those intervening years Pietro
had been at Rome studying music, had
| met with evil companions. and fallen
into shameful dissipation and crime.
