The oil Industry.

Colorado's oil and natural gas ~
sources are practically unknown: n
though oil has been produced sincc
1890 and gas since 1894. the toesi
production of oil is about 100000 par.
rels annually. This figure. compared
to California's S6,45O,767 barrels per
year. and even Wyoming's 1,57z.306
barrels per year, shows that the In
dustry in the state has never passed
its infancy.

DESERT AUTO IS NO CAMEL
These Men Forget to Provide Water
for Their Desert Ride and
Ones Dies.

Failure to think about evaporation
in an automobile radiator brought
death to one man and frightful tor
lures to two others, who arrived in
Los Angeles from the desert and told
Of their sufferings. The trio-James
s. Roche and John Fl. Welsh, attor-
neys, and James G. Clarke, a real es.
tate dealer-left here Sunday in an
automobile for Ell Centre, in the i'm
perial valley.
Monday morning the car stopped in
the sand. The radiator was empty and
they had no water. Roche and Welsh
started after a mirage which they be-
lieved was the Salton sea. Clarke
waited a day. and then, believing
them dead, made his way to Mineral
Springs. where he was resuscitated
after falling himself in a faint and or
ganized rescue party. They found
Roche unconscious and Welsh dead
Roche said they drank lubricating oil.
