ment to be true capping to first sand. Water encountered over this capping is said to be the best indication and shows that the oil sand is perfectly sealed. E. E. Vanderhoef, head of the Jerome -Adamana syndicate. is making careful study of conditions at the well this week, in company with Man ager Cook. MT. Vanderhoef is more confident than ever and intends to get to the bottom of the hole, regardless of depth, as quickly as passihleF He states that this water is only an &d- vantage, saving the hauling of that necessary article for drilling. The well is not caving at all and this condition will apparently continue, as the present drilling would show signs if, there were any. MT. Vanderhoef is, how ever. tying up string of 2K inch casing which must be used to case off of the water and shales before the well is brought in. This casing is expected to be on the ground in a short time for use when required.

 Ancient Building Falls
 TUCSON-After serving humanity for over seventy years, beginning as
 
 Chinese grocery, the adobe building al the northeast corner of Broadway and Meyers street was pulled down Satur- day morning to make room for an S0- foot Broadway to Main street. The final act of this ancient structure around which many an Indian has likely danced, was to tumble half way across Meyers street and bury a modern drinking fountain. Its at tempts to crush new lamp post were in vain.
 The old building dates back so far that it's present owner could not tell its exact age. He sat across the street Saturday night looking rather sadly at the pile of adobe that had been the front wall. He did not seem to care to discuss the history of the ruins.
 At Stone avenue it was necessary to take only few feet from the front of the buildings facing on Broadway but the street was not straight and when the straight line reached Meyers street a whole building had to come down. This was the building which was wrecked Saturday, opening q street so feet wide to Meyers.
 Tomorrow morning Broadway will begin eating its way through a solid row of buildings on Meyers street, where Broadway now ends, A section so feet wide will be taken out of that row of buildings. On one side it win cut a doorway half in two. while on the other side window will undergo the same fate.
 Tn the near future Broadway will have a clear sweep to Main street and many ancient adobe houses will have ended their eventful careers-Citizen.
