Work has been resumed on the
well of the Triumph Oil and De-

and they are now drilling at 2,590
feet in brown shale formation.
This company got sand at 1880
feet but the oil was low gravity
and it was decided to drill deeper
and a second sand was encountered
at 1850 feet, line set and every
thing was in readiness to bale out
and work started when 1t was dis
covered that water had broken in
and it was impossible to shut it Off.
It was decided to drill deeper and
the contract depth Of $500 feet was
reached three weeks ago. Arrange
ments have been made to go to
$500 feet and if no nay is encoun-
tered to that depth, lit is likely the
test will be carried deeper

ried out and when Calvin breathed
his last in May 1864 nls remains
we're Inferred in secret in the
churchyard OF Plainpalais, now with

Since those days the secret of the
tomb has been known to only one
family that of Speyr, of Bnsle, IN
which IL has passed down from father
to son with the injunction never TO
reveal IL as long as there were de-
scendants in the family. The laN
of the race, Eugene de Speyr, who
is over 70 years of age and lives at
Avignon, in France, has just In
formed the consistory of the Protest
ant Church OF Geneva that, having
mo descendants, he desired to reveal
the secret OF Calyin's tomb, which
was pointed out to him in 1860, by
his grandfather
A meeting was accordingly ar
ranged few days ago between NJ

Church and the Ametery was VS.

initials -. c." as indication of the
presumed site of the grave NJ de
Speyr, after some search, pointed

sion for the site to be explored.
