kett, leased wire operator at Anaconda, Mont. in getting first word to the As sociated Press of the big mine disaster at Butte, on June g. Particular interest attaches locally to the feat of Burkett for among newspapermen he is re- membered as the first Associated Press leased wire operator to be em- ployed in Arizona. It was Burkett who presided over the leased wire of The Arizona Republican when it was first installed It was he who took the first congratulatory message to this paper from Melville E. Stone. general man ager of the Associated Press, upon the occasion when the paper established a precedent in Arizona by receiving the first full leased wire report in Arizona.
 Burkett went direct from Phoenix to Anaconda, Mont. He has since been operating a leased wire there for the Morning Standard. According to the Traffic Bulletini Burkett got the first word of the Butte mine explosion to the Associated Press at Spokane The story "broke" after the circuit upon which he is an operator. had closed for the night, but Burkett got Spokane on a long distance telephone. The Morse circuit was then set up again between Anaconda and Spokane and he filed 15O words, following this up later with a 750- word add sent by the Western Union.

the motor metropolis, the presence of hundreds of engineers expert in the science of automotive engineering and of thousands of mechanics trained in the making of motors, all pointed log ically to Detroit as a potential center of the aviation engine industry
 The Packard Motor Car company meanwhile set about the development of an airplane engine that should be equal, if not superior, to the best air craft motors in war service in Flu rope. For more than year, research and experiment on such an engine has been carried on by J. G. Vincent, vice president of engineering assisted by w. B. Stout. chief engineer of the aircraft division.
 According to Warren McArthur of McArthur Brothers who has just re- turned from visit to the Packard factory at Detroit, the new aeroplane motor develops 40 horse power and weighs less than two pounds per horse pOweE The Packard Motor Car com pany have given the government the right to manufacture this motor which will be called the United States motor.

Admitting that he deserted his wife but only after she threatenc his life, w. H. Balden in an answer to the divorce complaint filed by his wife recently ip which she charges failure to provide and desertion, makes sensational allegations.
 Balden, through his attorney, P. Ii. Hayes, filed his answer yesterday. He claims that for some time his wife secretly carried a pistol and when he found it he carried it tu the neighbors for safe keeping. She ieered at him when she made the discovery, he alleges and told> him she could easily fix his coffee" When she openly wished him dead he thought it time to leave home for his own protection-and slept out in the open.
 Balden claims that his wife made a slight mistake when she gave the date of their marriage as 1903 be- cause they were not married until 1912 although they have twelve

DR. MARQUIS |S
 GIVEN HONORS

In a recent dispatch, dated at Washington. Pa, giving a descrip- tion of the commencement exer- cises of Washington and Jefferson College, located in that city, the fol- lowing sentence appears: The hon. orary degree /of doctor of divinity was conferred upon Rev. John To- gan Marquis of Phoenix, Arizona, class of 1885,"
 Dr, Marquis has recently accepted the call of the First Presbyterian church of this city to become it's
 tol and hls formal installation will occur sometime in the early au~ tumn. It is noted, in passing, that Dr. Marquis is the third man in succession to receive his degree of doctor of divinity while serving this church. His predecessors thus dis tinguished were Dr. Henry M. Campbell, now of San Jose. Califoi- mia, and Dr. Lapsley A. McAfee of Berkeley, California Both of these men served the church for a num- Der of years and the mantle of sue cess which they both wore seems to have been bequeathed to Dr. Mar quis.

 they will relate how the fluid grad ually diminished. and how, about 1940, the supply of the United States was practically gone. They will describe the decline in other parts of the world and show that by 1859, just 100 years after Col. E. l.. Drake drove his first well in Pennsylvania, the world had used up its oil supply and had to go to other sources for the vast number of products which now come from pe- troleum.
 But all this is conjecture. Truth may lie in the bottom of a well. but it will take the oil wells of the future to show whether this is the truth or not Let us get down to the brass tacks of the present
 Let us take an automobile and drive around Port Arthur and see what the United States is actually doing in de- veloping and protecting it's great oil supply. I have called this place the oil spigot of the southwest Situated on Sabine lake. with a wide and deep channel 30 miles long leading into the Gulf of Mexico. it is the chief refin- ing and shipping point of the petro- leum which comes from the oil fields of Texas Louisiana, Oklahoma and Kansas Into it's tank farms pour the
 
 wells. and from it go out kerosene. gasoline and lubricating oils by the millions of barrels. The oil flows in through lines of iron pipes eight inches in diameter, and it goes out in long trains of tank cars and in tank steam CTS some of which carry 10000 bar rels at one load
 The place has two great refneries, and as l write this a dozen large tankers lie at their wharves. One of those being loaded by the Gulf Refining company is the Maumee, belonging to the United States navy. It is technically known as collier, but its business is ito carry fuel and other oil to our battleships and crui- sers. The boat is manned fore and aft with guns to protect it from submarines, and 1t has the most powerful engines known to naval construction. The en- zines are in the center of the ship. They are three stories high, and they fill that part of the vessel from the deck to the hull.
 The rest of the steamer is taken up with vats for the cargo The vats have ca pacity of 100000 gallons, and each may have it's own kind of oil, consisting of fuel, gasoline or lubricants. The oil is pumped in from the tanks of the refin- cry. A ship can be loaded within a very few hours.
 Among the other vessels taking on oil are British tankers, which will carry their supply across the Atlantic to Europe, and there are American ships ready to sail. The two great refineries here, the Gulf company and the Texas company have their own fleets of tankers, and both are building new vessels for this time of war. The Gulf Refining company will launch one of 10000 tons before the close of the year and it has others of 5000 and TOGO tons each that will be ready next winter The Texas company has several new ves- sells of 5000 tons each, and it will have a half dozen more before 1918. Altogether, since the commencement of the war in

This IS made on tho ground and the sulphur comes from the mines of Louisiana just over the border. I looked into one of the ovens and saw the birthstone as it was being reduced to a gas The flames were light blue, blaze of ultramarine, from which rose horrible fumes.

that the prices have risen and the supply is all used, We now need all of these things as never before and every patriot will aid the government in trying to save them.
 This is especially true as to gasoline, which is such a vital necessity to the industrial life of the nation. The de- mands for it on account of the war have reached enormous proportions, and it Is now as important as gun powder and shells. Great supplies arc needed in France for carrying the troops, transporting the guns and talk ing munitions from place to place. It is also employed for the airplanes and submarines, and it is the only motor power of the automobiles in the field
 The Germans would have already been defeated had it not been for their large supply of motor car fuel. In some of their engagements they trans ferred large numbers of troops from the eastern to the western front by motor cars and trucks, and even now the automobiles are aiding the rail- roads.
 I am told here at Port Arthur that there is practically no gasoline in stor- age and that the United States is not making more than enough to supply it's own needs. This is so. notwith- standing the rapid growth in motor

 fields of our great southwest. send these warnings:
 Don't waste your kerosene! Turn down your lamps when you go out of an evening.
 Don't use fuel oil where coal will do the same work equally well.
 Be close with your lubricants in all sorts of machinery, and economize on every drop of oil and on every pe- trpleum by-product.
 Keep your eyes on the gasoline tank of your "flivver" and save all the Juice" you possibly can.
 These are among the demands of the nation in these trying war times and they come from both the field and the factory.
 This is so. notwithstanding we are producing more petroleum than ever before The output last year was al- most s00,000.000 barrels. but even at

1 Europe, orders have been placed with American shipbuilders for more than 100 new oil tankers, and of this number about l 30 have been launched and 61 are sched- uled for completion this year. These ships
 are being built by the different oil com panies of the United States, and are, in addition to the fleets already in use We have now larger oil fleet than that of any other government, and a great stream of gasoline, fuel oil and lubricants Is
 now moving this way and that, as it dodges the submarine in it's course across the Atlantic
 The loading of these tankers is guarded and the two great refineries are surrounded by soldiers and watch
 men. Each has a high fence of barbed
 wire about it and strangers refusing to halt or obey the directions of the guards are in danger of death. The employees of the works are handled with military precision. Many of them have their homes near the works, and each refinery may be looked upon as an important camp in our new indus trial army. The troops work day and night turning out gasoline, fuel oil and
 the other products of petroleum as
 never before. Here at Port Arthur they
 are divided into eight-hour shifts, and the machinery never stops from one years end to tne other.
 Similar activity is going on at all the oil centers and the works should everywhere be guarded. This is so not
 only of the refineries, but also of our
 great pipe lines. of which we have enough, if stretched end to end, to reach twice around the world. These lines connect the oil fields with the refineries and the ports, and some of them have a length of hundreds of
 miles. There is one which goes from
 Oklahoma clear to New York. It be- longs to the Standard Oil company. I despair of giving you snapshot of these mighty oil plants. There are two here at Port Arthur Both have pipe lines connecting them with the oil fields of the midcontinent and the gulf and the oil comes in in great streams through pipes "A inches in cir conference. It runs day and night all the year through. The Gulf Refining l company is now using 50.000 barrels,
 such oil per day, and the consumption or more than 2,000,000 gallons, of of the Texas company is almost as large. The five refineres which lie near here have a capacity of about | 40, GOO barrels and their output of gas oline is many thousand barrels daily The biggest refinery in this part of the world is the Gulf Refining com pany, which I visited today. It lies out in the prairie, within five miles of Port Arthur. and it's tank farms and works may be seen as you come in on the railroad. The plant is one of the largest and most efficient industrially
 of those of the United States. It covers 1900 acres. or the area of 10 quar- ter-section farms. and more than a thousand acres of this consists of oil tanks and buildings filled with ma chinery as intricate and varied as

 The plant is like great city. It's buildings cover 40 or 50 city blocks, and these face concrete roads as smooth as a floor. Some of the streets are devoted to stills, others to ma chine shops and factories. and others are lined with ovens as high as two- story house. Some of the ovens are so large that you could run train through one of them and not touch the walls. The tank farms contain al- most 500 steel reservoirs filled with petroleum and it's products. The larg est of them will each hold $500 bar rels, and the farms can store more than 100000 barrels at one time.
 It would take book as big as a dictionary to describe the machinery and the various processes of making the vast number of products that come from petroleum. They are all to be seen in these works As the petrol- cum flows in it is dirty crude oil, which looks much like the thickest of black strap molasses. It comes out in kerosene, gasoline, paraffin, wagon grease and all sorts of lubricants. Some of the residue is used to cover the roads, and other parts of it are made into coke. while others become asphalt for roofing.
 An important part of the establish ment is the chemical laboratories The refining of oil is an exact science and nothing is done by guesswork. The gasoline must always be at just the same grade, and the kerosene is tested in cheap coal oil lamps like those used by the poorest consumer.
