one well was brought in that prom

entered the sand about seven feet and
from it there was q rise Of 700 feet of
oil. Another well is expected in today
on the Big Elk COMPANY property.
In the Menefee Field there are in op-
GRAFTON about Ii machines. The Cum
berland Pipe Line will have connec-
ton with Menefee wells in about a
week, when greater work will be con-

that this will be one of the most
profitable fields in Kentucky. The
distance from Mt. Sterling to these

AT luncheon Wednesday at which
were present R. E. Punch, W. B.
Small, Pierce Vim, John Keller, III.
G. Hoffman, J. W. Hedden, Jr., W. s.
Smathers and H. II. Pieper, plans
were discussed for the organization
of a club to further the interests Of
this city and its various business
concerns.
Many unique ideas were advanced
which could be adopted by such an
organization which would rebound to
the benefit of this community and our
merchants, chief among which might
be mentioned "Your Home Town
First"
Following the spirit of the Rotary
Club that "He Profits Most Who
Serves Best" the one man control
idea was eliminated at this meeting, it
seeming that each one present was
anxious to serve in any way or man.
ner suggested by any of the others. 1t
is such spirit as this that makes for
the success Of such organizations
Much interest and enthusiasm was
shown at the meeting Wednesday, and
the new club which is now only in the
process of organization, bids fair to
eclipse any this city has had in re-
cent years. Clever plans for organiza-
ton and methods of holding its men,
bership together are worthy of es-
pecial commentator to those foster
ing such suggestions.
Another meeting is scheduled for
next Wednesday evening, the 18th, at
the Delicious Cafe, at 7:3O P. NJ, to
which all of our business men and
those interested are invited to attend.
1t will be in the nature of an informal
Smoker" and we trust will be well
attended.

REMOVAL OF SOLDIER
DEAD TO BEGIN IMMEDIATELY

The work Of bringing home the SOL
der dead, who were buried in foreign
lands during the war, is to begin inn
mediately.
Within two weeks it is believed the
first shipment of bodies will have
been started on the way to the United
States. Ralph Hayes, of Cristine, O.,
private secretary to Secretary of
War Newton D. Baker, was des;gnat-
ed to go to Europe to take charge of
the work of sending the bodies home.
He will start within a very few
days, and is expecting to hasten the
work as rapidly as possible.
The dead in England, Scotland,
Ireland and Wales first will be sent
home. After that will come the bodies
from France outside the war zone
and negotiations are under way by
which it is expected the bodies from
war zone of France may be sent home
next in order.
From figures at the War Depart
ment, it is learned that the American
dead and buried now in foreign coun-
tries are as follows:
France, inside the war zone, ST.
OOl; France, outside the war zone,
1906; the British Islands, 2,519;
Germany, 1907; Belgium, LOIS;
Luxembourg, 154; Russia, Ill; Italy,
rs; Spain, 2; total, 1851.
