The drilling in the well on Clyde
Young's place at Olympia has been
completed with a good showing of
oil. The geologist who is working in
the Olympian field says the sand
encountered in this well was the
ardest he ever saw and for this
reason the well, which was sunk to a
depth of over 500 feet, will be
"shot." This, however, will not be
done until another well, which will be
on Mrs. Jim Will Jackson's place,
some distance north of Clyde
Young's place, which will be COM
menced at once, has been completed.
The well drilled on Richard Crouch's
place, south of the Olympian Springs
to a depth of 400 feet, was aband-
ned as dry hole. Drilling a we'll
near the Cho'vbeate Springs. ncar
and north of Olympian Springs, wiz
be begun in a few days.

The Leader Surely
Was Misinformed

The article appearing in the Lex
ington Leader of last Sunday stat
ing that the ]. NJ. Venable Manu-
featuring Co., of North Carolina,
with factory and redrying plant in
this city, had bought of Buckley &
Geary, of Lexington, 400, 900 pounds
of low grade tobacco at IL IL cents
on which the Lexington firm made a
profit of $4,000, was incorrect, and
the facts in regard to the deal as
given to us by Mr.. W. c. Clay, Of
this city, are as follows:
]. NJ. Venable and w. C. Clay
last Saturday bought of Buckley &
Geary their one-half interest in
100000 pounds Of loX grade tobacco
for II IA cents f. o. b. cars, and
same will be shipped to the Superior
Tobacco Storage Co., Lexington,
where it will be stored. The tobacco
was bought merely as a speculation,
and not for manufacture. Accord
ing to one of the members of the firm
Buckley & Geary's profit viii amount
to between $4,000 and $4,000 in
stead of $4,000, as stated in the
Leader, as the purchase will stand
them at between SIS and Sc in hogs
heads, f. o. b. cars. Mr.. Clay stated
to us that the tobacco was purchased
purely as an investment, as he felt
that the weed would go much higher,
owing to the small acreage and the
present severe drouth.

Marguerite Harris
Pardoned School Girl,'
Gets in Jail Again

SAVANNAH, Ca, Aug. ,12.-.Mar7
guerite Harris, the sophisticated,
though supposedly repentant young
woman, who was pardoned out of the
prison farm at Milledgeville by Gov
ernor Hardwick on the earnest solicit
tation of members of the Georgia
legislature, is in Jail again. She was
arrested in Savannah Wednesday
night for idling and lettering.
The young woman, pretty and at
tractive, was sentenced to the prison
farm at Milledgeville for shop-lifting.
When a joint legislative committee
visited Milledgeville to inspect the
institution, Marguerite so aroused
the syRpat hies of the legislators that
they united ina petition to the gov
ernor for her pardon.
The woman represented to the leg
islators that she wished to return
10 her Indiana home, where, she said,
it was unoknwn that she had strayed
from the straight and narrow path.
She said her relatives thought she
was in school.
But when the governor pardoned
Marguerite, it seems she did not
return to Indiana; instead she return
to Savannah, the scene of her first
trouble, and there, Wednesday night,
she was again arrested.

PRIEST MURDERED
AND BODY BURIED

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12.-Fa-
Their Patrick Heslin, kidnapped priest
Of Colma, Cal, has been found-mur-
dered.
Six men early Wednesday dug his
crumpled body from a rude grave in a
tiny cave on the wind-Swept cliffs of
Salada Beach, some thirty miles
south of San Francisco.
Not man in the party knew Fa-
Their Heslin in life, but identification
was certain because: The body was
shrouded IN a clergical garb Of
broadcloth.
On it was a medal, bearing the
likeness of Christ on one side and
on the other the Blessed Virgin
Mary.
In a little velvet case was the
sacred host Father Hesun had takei,
from his home at Colma week ag"
Tuesday night for use in the last
sacrament he had been called by his
kidnapers to administer ito dying
friend"
Papers, including q railway rate
certificate, a garage bill, bills of lad
ing for the furniture and similar
articles were found.
William Hightower, a mechanic.
furnished the clue which led to the
discovery and guided the Searcher RS
composed of himself, Chief of Police
Obrien, of San Francisco; Constabls
Landini, Of Colma, and three news
paper men, to the grave. HightoWet
had found the grave first through g
story told him by a woman known as
Dolly Mason, of Salt Lake City.
whose suspicious had been aroused
by the disconnected statements Of a
drunken foreigner. who had called
upon her.
You better be afraid of this gum
the foreigner had told her. 1T has
killed a man.
But he is not alone. Beside his
grave sits man also frying pam
cakes
Hightower found the grave within
the sight of sign, familiar in the
west, picturing an old desert rat"
frying pancakes over little fire.
Hightower had found signs Of Fl
grave, but investigated no further,
he told a newspaper reporter, ana
last night the searching party went
out and unearthed the BODY of the
missing priest.
Father Heslin had been shot
through the heart, probably at the
brink of the grave. Cartridges were
scattered nearby.
There was nothing to indicate how
long Father Heslin was held captive
by his kidnapers before he was muir
dered.
Hightower was detained by the
police pending the investigation or
the case and a search for Dolly
Mason was instituted. She was be-
lieved to have left San Francisco
~ Last August 8, a week ago last it
night, Archbishop Hanna rrecelVsesd an an
anonymous letter demanding. $6,oOo
in small bills for the safe, return, of
Father Heslin and yesterday the
archbishop received another letter
demanding $4,000 ransom.
Father Heslin was last seen alive
about 8 o'clock Tuesday evening,
august 2, when stranger drove up
to the parochial residence at Colma
in an automobile. Under the pre-
tense that he wanted the priest TO
deliver last sacrament to a dying rel
ative, he succeeded in getting rather
Hes1in to accompany him.
