WAIT FOR BELATED TRAIN TO
GET GLIMPSE OF SOLDIER AND
COMING STATESMAN
ORE. 100 PER CENT AMERICAN
Shakes Hands With the Kiddies,
While Famous Roosevelt Smile
Captivates Grown-Ups


1t was large crowd and a deter
mined crowd that gathered at .he
Southern Pacific depot Tuesday
evening to get glimpse of Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt as he passed
through on the train, en- route to
the state convention OF the Ameri-
can Legion to be held at Portland.
The crowd was determined to see-the
colonel and good naturedly awaited
the belated train.
1t was supposed that Mr.. Roose-
velt would arrive on No. "a, due
here at 6:15, but he did not. He
came on the second section, that was
marked up to arrive at 1890 Again
they we're disappointed 1t always
appears that when train is late the
engineer doesn't care when he ar
rives, and the second marking on the
railway time board read "7:55.D
This was better guess and the sec
ond section rolled into the station at
o'clock
The majority of the crowd expect
ed to find the colonel on the rear
platform. but as the train came to
standstill someone farther up the
line shouted here he Is" and there
was wild scramble forward. The
hero from France had just sat down
to the dining table, but Immediately
came out on the platform.
There he was, Roosevelt smile and
all-''the son of his father" Indeed,
had he possessed mustache he
might easily have passed for the IL
lusterous Teddy although he is
somewhat smaller He was hoarse
from continued speaking, and as the
train stopped only for a few min
utes, spoke only few words to the
audience.
He at once began shaking hands
with some of the little folks who
had crowded close-the little folks
take to Theodore-an even shook
hands with and smiled at few ba-
bies who were held up to him.
Hello, everybody" he shouted.
81 am sorry that the Southern Pa
cific company is rushing me through
Oregon so fast. There is one thing
about oregon--her people are 100
per cent American Cheers fol-
lowed. 81 was just eating my din
ner, although You wouldn't think it
by looking at me now. but when
saw the crowd of smiling faces /
couldn't resist the temptation to
come out and say hello"
There was more cheering, follow
ed by few brief remarks by the
colonel. ME and all my family
think whole lot OF Oregon
That was as far as he got with
that sentence. Some person in the
crowd shouted ia reply:
And Orego.. THINKS a whole LOT
of YOU and your family" This
brought forth q whopper of cheer.
Thank you" answered the col
onel, smiling from ear to ear, ''and
now If you will excuse me I will go
back to that beefsteak" He did so,
the people cheering and peering
through the. windows at this coming
statesman until the train pulled out.
There was a delegation present
from the local organization of the
American Legion, but the short stop
did not permit them to get in touch
with the colonel.

FIELD NOTES

:. Towers are now being
 worked at the Hopi- Wind
 River well, Driller Burns,
 one of the most expert of the
 Wind River staff, arrived from Wyoming Tuesday and
 took charge of the first tower.
 The work of cleaning out the hole is nearly completed and drilling for new hole is likely to be starteds at any hour. Owing to the depth this well has already attained, much interest centers in the con- tinuation of work on this property and with continu- ous work now being carried on this well will be rapidly completed. Estimates still vary as to the necessary depth to strike oil, running from 25O0 feet to $500 feet. Superintendent Closer is very much pleased at getting the well cased and practically cleaned in so short a time.

Work at the Adamana has been resumed and new depth is attained to augment the hole already made, two towers being worked as usual. Secretary w. J. Hen messy left Wednesday night for the coast on business of the company, but before leaving expressed himself as confident that the next couple of hundred feet would be of further encouragement to the belief that the oil sands are not far distant. The drilling is getting harder and it is the impression, as here tofore stated, that cap rock is being neared.
 Superintendent McCloskey of the Black Canyon Syndi- cate well, now drilling, states that progress continues and that it is the expectation that the hard drilling will soon be through and much more rapid time will be made in the near future. The core drill being used continues to work sat isfactorily.

CATTLEMEN'S DESPERATE FIGHT. SHOOTING SCRAPE ON
 THE RANGE

Information received in
 Holbrook is to the effect that a desperate shooting and cutting affray was staged in
 Pleasant Valley the first of the week, John and Louis
 Bowman, father and son, be- ing shot by Tom Hubbard, who in turn was so badly cut on the arms that they were almost severed. The trouble is said to have originated over range matters and the story given to The News is to the effect that the Bow mans attacked Hubbard who managed with difficulty to get to his gun. shooting John Bowman through the lung, probably fatally, and Louis Bowman through the right leg. While this version of the matter is not authorat- i've, there seems to be no doubt that the statement in general approximates the facts.
