ceased had been in failing health
for a long time and death followed an
operation performed Wednesday.
Mrs. James was taken to the hos

lot entirely removed. Mrs. James was
not able TO rally from the operation
and died last Friday at ) p. m.
Word OF her death was received
with general expressions of sorrow
and sympathy for the bereaved hus-
land and children. She was a woman
beloved for these qualities which
blend into the true wife and mother.
a woman whose example in living was
one of lasting good. While of a dis.
position and temperament that made
her home and family her life's work
and pleasure, yet she found time &c
be active in a quiet way in many
worthy causes and was affiliated with
several organizations. one of which
vas the woman's guild of st. Barthol-
omew's Episcopal church. Of which
she was secretary. Other lodges of
which she vas a member was the
Women of Woodcraft and the Broth.
erhood of American Yeomen.
During a long illness and much
suffering she has always been cheer
full and patient and it has been hard
for those around her to realize the
true seriousness of her condition, al
though we'll knowing The ordeal that
was hers.
She is survived hv her husband
and two children, a daughter. Cora
and n son, Harold. the former at
tending the high school and the lat
ter the grade school. Other immedi-
ate relatives are her aged mother,
Mrs. Elizabeth Uren of Ely. and four

NowNDr iling for Oil Thirty Eight Miles West of Ely

strong oil seep was encountered. At 526 feet the
first oil sand was struck. showing high-grade pc
troleum seep. and which proved to us that petro'
leum in paying quantities will be found at proper
depth.
On December 10th. at 6tS feet, oil and gas was
struck, which caused us to cease drilling until our
United States oil prospecting permit had been re-
ceived. This permit has since been received and
drilling was resumed on January 10Th, 1921.
From January goth TO February 2Sth the well
reached O. depth of SIS feet; in other words, 2o7
feet was made in 30 days. Drilling is now being
pushed with all energy possible.

SO SUPPORT ORDER
HELPS WIFE SOME

Upon application OF Philip l.. Gar
rett, attorney for John Bremos. the
order OF sil week against the man
for support OF his wife was reduced
TO 50 week by Judge Hastings in
Municipal Court this morning.
Mr.. Garrett brought to the courts
attention that Bremos' wages have
been reduced from S37 to S2S a week
since the order OF S1l was placed
against him. ana that his wife earns.
Sl5 a week. Under these conditions.
Mr. Garrett pointed out. his client
has weekly income OF SIT and his.
wife $24.
Assistant city Solicitor Davis op-
posed any modification of the order,
stating that Bermos. II he so desired.

added that there IL no question

AUTHORSHIP
OF WAR TALK
IS DISCLOSED
lcontInnsd from nage ono

lfNil ErNN NAfNf
~ published In. London papers to-
day.
In fact. the dispatch was sub
mitted to and approved by the very
same official who on Wednesday
gave out the formal disavowal OF re-
sponsibility on the part Of the for
eign office. This official is the regu-
larly indicated authority to consult
and heretofore it has been under
stood that he represented foreign
office and government opinion.
on Tuesday this official specifically
said that he considered the dispatch
TO have been handled conservativeiy
and Adequately. His whole attitude
gave the distinct impression that no
desired the dispatch used.
The publication Of the name Of
Ambassador Geddes makes clear the
technical point made in the foreign
Office statement when It asserted
that the statement was made with
out the authizoration or knowledge
Of the foreign Office"
Technically Ambassador Geddes is
not an official OF the foreign Office.
II was suggested today that per-
haps the purpose behind the whole
incident may be revealed in the fol-
lowing comment by the Daily Ex-
press:
In the end. this strange incident
will do good. II teaches all, peoples
here and across the Atlantic. how
much they abhor the Bare sugges-
tion Of a possibility OF a conflict"
Most OF the comment here is bas-
ed upon fragmentary dispatches
from New York sent TO newspapers
or to correspondents with inquiries
as to why they did not send the
story They failed to give the COM
nlete impression carried in the orig
inal United Press dispatch which
was clearly one Of warning OF future
danger through a possible thought
less drifting apart OF the two ma
tions and showed beyond possibility
OF misinterpretation that Geddes
purpose was one OF friendship. II re-
ferred to the possibility OF war as
''unthinkable." The only distortion
appears to have occurred in piece
meal and fragmentary dispatches
sent back 70 London from America.
