GARDEN CITY OIL
TEST DOWN 23OO FEET
Good Indications Cause Extra Exer-
ton to Go Deeper.

Oil talk at Garden City has been
rather at a standstill for the past few
weeks, but things are picking up.
The drill is down a little over 2300
feet and arrangements are being
made to keep the men at work and a
deep well test is to be made before
the hole, northwest of this city will
be abandoned, on account of non-pro-
duction. Some good indications of
oil have been encountered already,
and the men, who are in position to
know, are feeling jubilant over the
results already obtained
Sam Barnes has undertaken the
task of selling some more stock for
the company that funds will be
available for the current expenses
and the matter of selling stock in
the Garden City Oil & Gas Co., is
going to be an easy matter, as many
people are confident that this section
of the country is underlaid with oil
and that it is only question of sink
ing a hole deep enough to find it,

WATER SUPPLY ONLY
A MATTER OF TIME
Big Rotary Drill Going Down Rapidly
Equipment Adequate for
Great Depth.

If there is sufficient water in the
earth under Liberal to furnish an
adequate supply, the water problem
of Liberal will soon be solved.
Over in the northwest part of the
city a gigantic steam engine is send
ing rotary drill into the earth at
rapid rate.
The outfit looks more like an oil
well than a water well, but the
authorities thought best to make a
genuine effort to get the needed
water
The hole was started 10 inches in
diameter and this has been drilled to
a depth of 100 feet. This is being
reamed out to 18 inches, which will
De the size of the well if necessary
to get the desired quantity of water.
The probable depth which will be
necessary is not known, but it is ex-
pected to get sufficient flow around
225 feet. However the rig is capable
of going to 500 feet, so it makes no
difference except in the cost.
The Democrat feels certain that an
abundant supply of water will result
from this well. One thing is certain ;
the city authorities are going at the
matter in a business-like manner
that should get results.
They have one of the best
companies in the state doing the work
and the outfit is ample and eX-
perienced deep-well men are on the
lob.

AFILMED TARTAN OF
. THE APES PROVES
MARVELLOUS PICTURE
Broadway Theatre Spectators Get
More Than Usual Amount
OF Thrills

Broadway got distinct thrill last
night with the production on the
screen of the astonishing story of
"Tarzan of the Apes" The daring
plot was unfolded with such realistic
effect that the audience which over
flowed the Broadway Theatre burst
into enthusiastic acclaim at the many
startling situations caught by the
camera in the heart of forest in
widest Brazil. Of course, the novel
that set the world by the ears was
built around plot laid in Africa.
But the moving picture artist who
screened the production last night had
all the settings necessary for the
scenes, from the vigorous elephant,
who pushed over the tree that stood
in his path, to the widest of lions,
tigers, jaguars, crocodiles, monkeys,
apes chimpanzees, gorillas and what
not. The wild animals figured all
through the production from the first
act to the finish, and the way they
were introduced at times gave such
a shock to the audience as to cause
an uncanny sense of fear. In the
foyer on entering there were some
trained apes and stuffed figures of
other denizens of the forest, which
were doubtless intended to be a
psychological preparation for the
treat to come inside. But that stunt,
while amusing, was really unneces-
sary, because the pictures themselves
were so daring and natural that not
even the famous Rainey films ap-
preached them.
The story of Tarzan is so we'll
known that it is needless to call it
into this review 1t did not seem pos
sible to catch in action in the jungles
this strange personality of the fancy
of Edgar Rice Burroughs. And yet
the picture went the range of the
extraordinary developments of the
story. The scenes included the meet
ing on shipboard, the battle between
cannibals and white men, the first
to the death between Tarzan and the
lion, and the no less thrilling struggle
with the gigantic negro chieftain.
The setting for the scenes in the
old English family home were just
as we'll done as the fearsome ones
in the wilds. One can we'll imagine
that, as the programme says, $780,
900 was spent on the production.
Gordon Griffith, as Tarzan the boy,
was matchless. There was a simpli-
city that was convincing and a mai
vette that showed the true artist:
Elmo Lincoln, as Tarzan the man,
held the audience at his beck. His
wonderful agility and muscular
power were not a whit better than
his emotional strength, shown for all
too brief a spell in the closing scene.
The one word to describe the pic
ture is marvelous.-New York World.
This picture will be shown at the
Majestic September 1st.
