WASHINGTON, June 22.-The
American Government has asked,

Their informatin regarding the Seizure

sulate at Tabriz and the looting of
an American hospital there. A mea-

Bulgaria and Turkey. 1t was referred
to the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Secretary Lansing, while before the

organized military force it would con-

is THIS MILITARISM

A well known man recently gave
an address at the graduating exer-
cises of the West Point spring class
and in the course Of his remarks he
told the young officers that they are
to have part in leading the armies
of the nation to victorious peace.
Then he said: "After that, as off
GERS of the regular army you will pre-
pare, not for war, but to be ready for
another war if anybody wants to
make it."
"Who is this militarist?" The
man who said it was Newton D. Ba-
ker, secretary of war. 1t was the
man who was such a pacifst only
eight months ago that he said, 81 de-
light in the fact that when war came
upon us we were not prepared for it. !"
But since he made that famous ut
terance he has been to Europe and
has seen what war is. He has reali-
zed that Germany is not impressed by
anything except military strength and
that pacifism is mighty poor doc
trine to follow unless all the nations
are following it at the same time.
The mills are grinding.

SOME COUNTY OIL HISTORY

June, twenty-eight years ago, the
various oil companies were drilling
for oil in Barren county. What is
known as oil well No. /, on the Pro-
fessor Hatton farm, was brought in
in 1890, the latter part of February.
This we'll caused intense excitement
and oil men from many states came
to see the we'll and inspect the prop
erty and territory. The flow from
this well was estimated to be S5 bar
rels per day. When brought in the
we'll caught fire and burned oil and
gas for something like week before
the fire was put out. The entire rig
was burned except the engine and
boiler, and oil flowed down the branch
and into Beaver creek for perhaps a
mile or more, and the flow was full six
inches in width.
Owing to a disagreement on the
part of the owners of the property,
and the oil company, the well revert
ed back to the owenrs Of the land who
undertook to produce the oil. A 800
barrel tank was filed, but not know
ing anything about marketing the oil,
and the low price of oil at the time,
the business was discontinued and the
paying well, thru Encouragement,
was finally reduced to about a two
barrel per day well.
The oil was of the very best grade
and will now command the highest
market price. The property (the
Hatton property was considered the
best property for oil in this section of
the state, and the showing made by
well No. / made it one Of the best
prospects for oil at any time before
or since it was drilled.
Another we'll was drilled on the
Hatton property south of No. l. This
was good producing well for a num-
Der of years until it was ruined by
shooting, the dynamite charge explod-
ing in the casing and letting in the
water, rendering it useless till casing
was replaced.
Mr.. J. W. Howard, of Greeneville,
Tenn, General Manager of the Beech
Haven Oil Company, is here to de-
velop the oil properties of the COM
pany. Associated with him is Mr..
A. E. Kicker, Of Greeneville, Tenn,
a practical drilling man, and Prof. R.
E. Hatton, of Simpsonville, Ky. 1t is
their purpose to push the development
of the property. They now have all
the necessary machinery on the
ground for beginning drilling opera
tons.

LATE RALLY is
GIANT NEMESIS
Pulls Final Game out of Fire for
Cubs ; to Bob 0'FarreH
Responsible.

Behind a heavy barrage in the
last half of the ninth sector, two
Cub runs went over and rescued
the final game of the year with the
Giants, which the enemy apparently
had taken prisoner. Those two be-
lated tallies changed the result
from to l against US to to for
US.
Bob O'FarrelI was chief artillery
man in the winning attack, making
a direct hit somewhere in right CEN
ter with a shot which was delivered
with the trenches full of Cubs. All
three of them could have registered
on the bit, but the battle was over
when the second one spiked the
plate.
Merkle led the final assault on c.
AIgernon Causey with a modest
base on balls. being slightly grazed
by the fourth one One run was
needed badly to tie the Giants, but
Pick passed up the bunt and sin
gled. putting Merkle on second.
Deal tried to sacrifice, but missed
two strikes. then trundled a fast
b3under between third and short.
Fletcher mana ged to check the ball
with one hand enough to hold Mer-
kle on third. and the bags were
loaded. O'FarreII pasted a mighty
fly into the clouds and il landed
close to the wall back OF right cen
ter. Young and Kauff let it ride be-
cause neither could reach It and it
meant two runs and the end of the
game in spite Of anything they
could do.
The combat took place on
heavy field and was surrounded by
rain. 1t poured before play time,
but promised to clear, so they went
at it half an hour late In the fifth
inning it began raining again, but
the jumps kept them at it to the bit
ter end, as the ground conditions
did not get any worse than they
