Big Dividend Paid.

A few days ago the stockholders of the w. K. Oil company received one of the largest dividends ever paid by an oil company in California at one time. This was 300S per share on the 5OO,OOO shares of stock of the w. K. Oil company outstanding, and repre- sented the disbursement of l,5Oo. .OOO$. This huge payment was the result of the payment by the California Oil fields, Limited, on the purchase of the w. K. property some weeks ago for the sum of l,75O,O00S. In addition to this l,5OO.OO0S the stockholders have been receiving dividends at the rate of two and three cents per share per month for about two years, so that by the time the transaction is completed and the affairs of the company wound up, the stockholders will have receiv- ed something like 2.000,000$ on an original investment of possibly less than 25O, ,OO0S.
 As the same stockholders are the principal holders of stock in the Tur- ner Oil company, whose property has been sold to the same interests sub ject to clearing of title, for 1.5OO, ,OOOS, another melon cutting is in sight for them at some future date, possibly about year hence.-Oil Age.

Find Bones of Explorers
 in Last Unknown.

A New York dispatch says:-Capt. J. Campbell Besley of London has ar rived in New York with three con- panions fresh from the unexplored wilds of Peru, Brazil and the upper waters of the Amazon, where they spent ten months.
 A narrative of the trip through the last unknown country of the world reads like chapter of ancient ex- plorers It told of following the trail of the ill fated Cromer-Selian explora- tion expedition, and of the finding of the bones of Seljan and Patrick O'Hig- gins. who had been devoured by can nibals.
 They related the discovery of three pre-Inca cities abandoned 10000 or 2O,- 900 years ago, but with evidences of marvellous architectural art still intact and wonderful camp utensils and weapons, campi being an alloy of gold and silver. They described the dis covery of city along the upper reaches of the Amazon which was guarded by stone gates weighing thousands ot tons, still standing, where the inhab- itants banked up the river with stone so that they could control it, with Qualifications rising tier on tier, as modern forts rise, each communicat- ing with the other by subterranean passage.
 They told of long rides over noun tains 10000 feet high with burros, Hamas and horses, marches through jungles, the way of which had to be cut by machines. fight with bandits, running skirmishes with Indian tribes using poisoned arrows and old fashion. ed tlintlock guns (and finally the find ing of a road six feet wide through the | jungle, paved and bordered with stone l5OO miles long, build by pre-. historic races when the world was young according to other histories, and al | laSU tno ulSCONety auu luNtSIlSd'lou ol fly more deadly than the tsetse fly o Africa, the bite of which deposits d parasite which destroys all skin tis sues until death comes.
