Evening Chat

The south half Of the Big Horn Basin,
I'yo, embraces some OIL country that
is undeveloped but very promising. An
important report recently published by
the United States Geological Survey.
Department OF the Interior, presents
information regarding so, domes and
snttclines in this region. Besides the
Greybull,e Torchlight. and Grass Creek
anti-clines, which are already suffi-
GENTLY developed to contribute largely
&c the production of oil IN Wyoming,
there are several other domes and anti
clines, which are already sufficiently
developed to contribute largely to the
production Of oil in Wyoming, there are
several other domes and anticlines in
which oil or gas has been struck but
which are not sufficiently drilled to in.
escate their value as oil reservoirs.
Eleven of the anticlines described
have already proved to be productive,
an dabout as many more anticlines
have been tested by one to four holes.
though some of the holes have not been
theoretically well located. Il must be
borne in mind that oil development in
Wyoming is still In avery early stage,
end that drilling has not yet covered
enough ground to indicate the probable
productivity of all the anticlines.
she probability that the remaining
anticlines and domes described in this
reportmay contain oil or gas has been
carefully considered by the authors,
who have studied their form and prom
inence, their mutual relations. their
positions III the basin, the formations
exposed on the axes. and their similar
ity TO like domes and anticlines that
tcarry or do not carry oil or gas.
The stratigraphy and structure of
the region are discussed in detail, par
ticular attention being given to the ma.
ture of the folding and its bearing on
the proper location of drill holes.

whletied and hummed
When Miss Elienn had finished her
prunes and tea and retired to her
room she decided to help romance a.
long bit. She therefore, by the light
OF the gas jet, penciled the following
note:
"a young and innocent girl has been
Kidnapped and is being held pris.
oner in a room on the second floor of
No. 432. Whoever finds this hand 1t
to the nearest policeman. l am in a
terrible situation.
This note was dropped out of the
window and went fluttering down I'M
til it reposed on the flagstones, and
was picked up only after full hun
dred pedestrians had walked over it.
And was the name OF the man that
picked it up Guy Taylor. who was out
for an evening stroll and ready to
meet his romance half way?
1t was! He picked it UP from force
of habit. and he started to read it
without. a jot of curiosity. When he
had finished his hair was curling.
Here was romance at last!
Hand 1t to the nearest policeman.
Not if his true name was D'Artagan!
He would make the rescue alone and
unaided, or he would perish trying.
He looked up, and the number 432
stared him in the face. Up the steps
at three hops. The door was not lock-
ed. Up e,stairs, and half way up he
met the landlady. This person was
fat and solid, and weighed 200 pounds.
She was not near-sighted. She saw
at glance that the tioorwalker was
a stranger, and as he tried to elbow
her aside she took him by the neck.
