for the sheriff of McClain county on a

The best news from the Healdton
field comes from the Scivally Petrol
cum company in section 1918. THE
total depth of this well last night
was 1,275 feet. At a depth of l .239
feet the drill went into the pav.
Twenty-siX feet of hard, rich sand
were found, and below the sand a
broken formation was encountered.
The sand is harder than in the main
field. The oil tested Sc gravity and
is better than the average oil of the
field. 1t is believed that by shooting
the well the production will be in
creased. The production is not known
but it will probably reach 200 to 300
barrels. There are aboyt fifty local
stockholders in this company, and
this will be good news to them The
company owns fifty acres in the north
west corner of section u and the
well is located in the southeast cor
ner of the lease. The well is better
than the same company's No. l to
the northwest of it, and is better
than the Desada well between il and
the main pool, and it looks good to
the field as a whole for the reason
that it indicates a heavier sand in
the big gas area. Too much, however
must not be expected, on account of
the Gunsburg- Forman dry hole east
of the well in section Il.

LOST LIFE ASSISTING FOE
British officer Gained Applause From
Enemy for His Brave and
Self-Sacrificing Act.

One Of the most dramatic stories
of battlefield heroism concerns a
British officer who, noticing a
wounded German whom the enemy
had left behind during a sudden re-
tirement, ordered his own men to
cease fire, while he himself went out
into the open to pick up the man.
Unfortunately the Germans did not
at first realize his oxllct and fired,
wounding the officer in several places,
As soon AZ they saw what his object
was, however, they also ordered the
Cease fire." Thereupon the British
officer staggered to the fallen man,
and carried HIM to the German lines.
A German officer received him with a
salute, and, calling for cheers, pinned
upon the breast of the British hero
an irsn cross. Then the Britishel
| returned to his own trenches. HI
was recommended for the Victori'
| cross for his notable example of chiv
| airy, but succumbed to his wounds.

'1f the late Tom Reed Of Maine

Rusk, at the Raleigh in Washington.
at was impossible for Reed to re-
frain from directing his shafts Of
irony at members Of the house or
others when occasion arose. His
thrust at former Representative Nc
Millin Of Tennessee, now minister to
Peru, will cling to that gentleman
as long as he lives. 1t was to me
that he said on one occasion when
McMillin was speaking: 'Mchillin
never opens his mouth in a public
speech that he doesn't subtract from
the sum Of human knowledge
"On another occasion / walked to
the capitol with Mr.. Reed-he was
not speaker then. 1t was in the ad-
ministration of Mr.. Harrison, and |
