S. G. MURRAY.
News of His Death Brings Sorrow
to Many Occur d'AIene Friends.


The Ingersoll- Rand company, from
the San Francisco office, announces
with sorrow and regret the death of
Stephen G. Murray, for many years
the western representative of the COM
pany. In this expression of sorrow
hundreds of friends of Mr.. Murray in
the Occur d'Alene district will sin
cerely join. For many years he was
frequent visitor to this district and
until he was advanced to the position
of general western representative of
the company. He always came here
for business, and how well he sue
ceeded is best attested by the number
of Ingersoll Rand drills and compress
sors in use here. But in his makeup
there was a social side as we'll as
business and in both respects he was
known as a genial, high minded man
and withal splendid type of Ameri-
can citizenship.

holders, Manager Charles McKinnis
makes the following brief statement
Unsuccessful in Finding New Ore.
During the year many hundred
= feet of development work was
done. trying to find new ore, or
the downward extension of the
old ore bodies. In this we were
unsuccessful. The amount of war
tax we will have to pay is I'M
known, but 1t will be large sum.
We intend to continue the pre-
sent dividend rate as long as 1t
is policy to do so. Just how

Costs Money to Drill.
Mr.. Straw says that the oil in the
Towanda district is struck at a depth
of about $500 feet. To drill a hole to
that depth is quite an expensive OPP
GRAFTON, and it is generally estimated
that a man should have about $4,000
to insure success. Well drilers re-
ceive $3.50 per foot, furnishing the
rig, the owner of the land building the
derrick or tower, which is 80 feet high
and furnishing the water for steam.
Oil or gas is used for fuel. The holes
are started 20 inches in diameter and
this is continued to a depth of about
200 feet. From there the diameter is
reduced until at the bottom Of the
hole 1t is 6 inches. The hole is cased
the entire distance, which accounts
for much of the expense. When oil Is
first struck 1t generally comes out with
a gush and the flow gradually sub
sides, when it is elevated by pump
caught in a basin excavated in the
ground nearby, forming a great pond.
Tanks are then provided into which 1t
is pumped and into which the oil af-
forwards flows direct from the well.
Gaugers regularly measure the oil
which insures honest payment of the
royalty.
The oil region around Towanda is
a tract about IA miles long by miles
wide. There are other important oil
tracts in Butler county and the oil
territory is steadily extending. Mr..
Straw says that years ago the farm
ers noticed little oil on the surface
of the water in their wells, but 1t
never occurred to any one in those
days to drill for OIL

view Cohtract AWARDED Which Is Ex-
pected to Find Commercial Orc.
The Eldorado Mining & Smelling
company, of Kellogg, has entered in
to n contract with A. Patterson to
drive crosscut which is expected to
find a shoot of commercial ore So
certain is the contractor of this result
that he assumes all expense and takes
his pay in stock of the company, with
the provision that If he strikes COM
mercial ore he will receive a substan-
tial bonus. Mr.. Patterson Is familiar
with the property and does not ex-
pect to run far before he strikes ore.
In order to secure the bonus he must
find ore in place and it's commercial
value must be proved by profitable
shipment of not less than 10 tons. A
similar contract has just been COM
peted by other parties without find
ing pay ore. The Eldorado is situat-
ed on the opposite side of the river
and about a mile from Kellogg The
control of the company is held by M.
A. Curran, who is manager. John
Hamln, of Kellogg, is president of
the company and G. w. Dougherty,
of Wallace, is secretary treasurer.
