OPERATIONS
TO RESUME MONDAY

Drilling operations at the lllipafi
Petroleum Company well will be re-
sumed tomorrow morning, according
to advice received at the Ely Office
Yesterday.
Secretary j. +. Amenda left for
Cherry Creek and Currie yesterday
and expects to return today. He viii
proceed to the well tomorrow morn
ing. The cement which was set No
vember 10 to test the well will be
drilled through and the volume OF
oil ascertained.
Secretary Amenda has always
maintained that a depth of 1000 feet
would have to be reached before a
commercial we'll could be brought in
However, the showing of oil Novem
Der 10 was sufficient to warrant the
firm cementing of the hole and max
ing a test. 1t is estimated that it
will take about three days to drill
through the cement, and while the
striking of n commercial well at the
depth of 677 feet would exceed ex-
pectations It is not wholly impossible,
and the hope of the management is
that this test will at least prove the
Illipah field.
If a commercial we'll is not encoun-
tered by this test the drilling OPERA
tions will be continued with two
crews working twelve hours each, so
that not a minute will be lost in
reaching the next oil sand, which. ae-
cording 10 the geology, should be at
a depth of about 1850 feet, where 1t
is firmly believed oil in commercial
quantities will be encountered.

Concerning Badness.

A majority of men who have amount
ed to anything have gone bald. To go
bald before amounting to anything is
the lot of millions. Among those mil
lions are many who feel that the first
kingdom of the world would be com.
pensation for loss of hair, even if the
perQuisites of king did not include
an allowance for a court wigmaker.

casion calls for olemnity.-Exchange.

The Wonders Of Amorica
THE BIG TREES IN CALIFORNIA.
BY T. 7. MAxEY


THE biggest trees In the world are
found In California. They are of
two varieties, both species of ever
green, sequoia lin honor of Cherokee
Indian) redwood and sequoia gigentia.
The former grows quite extensively In
certain sections on the western slope
of the coast range; the latter only on
the western slope of the Sierra Ne
vada mountains, at an elevation OF
about one mile above sea level. The
former is said to reproduce itself from
the stump. the other from little seeds
which grow in pods.
The best-known and most-frequently-
visited grove of the redwood sequoias
is near the little city of Santa Cruz.
on the coast some seventy miles south
of San Francisco. Some of these
trees are more than $50 feet high and
% feet in diameter at the base. The
gigentia, however. is the real thing in
big trees. Some are almost 400 feet
high and 80 feet around at the base.
The bark is of reddish brown color.
very thick and nuted up and down.
The branches are very large, begin
ming 60 feet or more from the groupi.
The secret of their age is still one
of the unexplained problems Of the
universe. Estimates range all the way
from 1900 to 10000 years. But sup
pose it is only the former Think of
living a million and aalf Of days
Think of the changes which have been
wrought In that time. That they are
the tallest, stateliesf and oldest living
things in all this big world OF ours ID

Forced Landing
Made at Hope
Airplane Has En-
gine Trouble

About five. O'Clock Sunday after
noon the attention, of the people of
the community was attracted to the
sky by the sound of the engine of an
airplane several thousand feet above
their heads and travelling rapidly to
the north. A few moments later the
same plane was seen again headed
south and coming down. rapidly. 1t
was soon evident that a forced land
ing was being made and this was
later discovered to be correct, owing
to engine trouble.
Being unable to chose a landing
place the plane lit in H. M. Carpen-
ter's wheat field about a half mile
south OF town on the east side of the
rail road track. The ground was
quite soft. owing to the recent rains,
and when the wheels of the running
gear stuck in the mud, the tail of the
plane kept right on travelling with
the result that the machine turned
summersault. The pilot was strap
ped into his seat and remained there
but the assistant had taken off his
belt and when the, crash came he
was thrown headfirst onto or into
the ground, going in up. to his ears,
fortunately not up to his ankles. Out
side of few. scratches and bruises
he was uninjured.
A crowd of spectators soon gath
cred and assisted in righting the ma
chine and 1t was then hauled to the
Hope Garage where the necessary re-
pairs are being made by VIM. Bowen,
Jr., who had quite bit of expert
ence with engines of this sort while
in the. army.
The plane was enroute to Minot
from Omaha, Neb., the pilot is Mr..
James and his assistant is Mr.. Sui
livan. They left Omaha about three
O'Clock Saturday afternoon.
