KEARNS FLOWS
100 BARRELS
IN 20 HOURS
New Well Is Considered One
of Best i'm Sunburst
Field.

For the first 20 hours that tubing
had been placed in the Ohio-Sunburst
kearns well on section 17-35-2W, 1t
flowed 100 barrels, according to a re-
port received by L. c. Stevenson, pres
ident of the Sunburst Oil Il Gas, from
the field Monday night.
Tubing was placed in the well Sun
day night at I o'clock and since that
time, without any pumping, the well
put 100 barrels through the pipe line,
flowing at the rate of six barrels an
hour or $50 barrels a day.
The well was brought in several
days ago and has been one of the best
wells in the field, being comparable
with the Hogan well in section 22-35-
2W, which has been doing more than
400 barrels a day, under agitation with
the swab. The swab has been run at
intervals, the well flowing between
~swabbings. There are now four good
flowing wells in the area in township
35. range 2 west-the Hogan, the
Kearns, the Mid-northern in section
9-35-2W, and the California-Smoke well
in section 27-35-2W. The Smoke well
was shot to increase the flow.
The Illinois Pipe Line was already
at the Gladys Belle well on section 1s-
35-2W, and is now connected with the
Ohio-Sunburst-Kearn
When it was first brought in, the
Ohio-Sunburst-Kearn flowed over the
top several times, producing several
hundred barrels in a short time.

Little Theater Plan
Takes Sturdy Grip
on Billings Culture

Special to The Tribune.
Billings, Dec. 1.-THE little theater
movement has taken a big hold on the
cultural activities of Billings. Housed
time, the sponsors of the movement
are meeting with a veritable triumph
for every offering.
Saturday evening was the second
public appearance Of the company,
when there were presented three one
act plays: 1.-THE Ghost Story" "Will
o'the Wisp" and Reform" The house
was damned to the doors and the casts
in the various pieces were credited with
something of a professional edge tc
their Interpretation of their roles:
Perhaps the notable feature achieved
in their acting is the confidence in
themselves the young women-all girls
Il of the first families of Billings
exhibit in their stage presence, giving
to their work a naturalness seldom
seen in amateur dramatics.

narts If Montana, with several large
exhibits from Wyoming, North Dakota

! trv g. Rabbit association will open at

through Saturday.
The greater part of the birds for the
show had arrived Monday night and
| officers of the show and breeders
worked until a late hour in placing
them in the pens. Due to the large
number of entries, it will be necessary
to double up the birds in some Of the
! pens which line two deep the exhibit
rooms at 219 Central avenue.
The judges of the show, IL. IL. Col
lier Of Tacoma, Wash, and A. G. Smith
of University farms, Mimi, will arrive
this morning. and judging is not expect
ed to get under way before wednesday.
Due to the storms which delayed
both the arrival of birds by train and
their receipt from country breeders,

ance of birds by 10 o'clock this morn
ing will be waived in cases showing
excusable delay, and a few of the birds
will not reach the show until during

horn class will be the largest at the
show, with some of the largest exhibits
being made in birds of this breed.
! Rhode Island Reds will probably be
| second in popularity on the basis of
present exhibits. while Barred Rocks
will be a close third.

Mr.. Skinner termed it as junk. He
said there was only one good work
horse in the lot. He said he was
shown the lot before the deal was
made and that there was some excel
lent stock in the collection. lie later
was told that the best stuff belonged
to various members of the family, not
to the estate. Mr.. Skinner said he
found the ground foul, not fit to
work, the fences down. the machinery
in bad shape. He said in 1918 the
company paid out $500 for new
machinery.
On rebuttal, John Rumney said So
COO of the $500 was spent for a
tractor, bought because Mr.. Skinner
thought they should have one to get
the entire place under cultivation.
He said every transaction made was
consummated only after consultation
with Mr.. Skinner.
After entering the company. Mr.,
Skinner said he found the Rumney OBJ
legations to be between $4,000 and
$4,000 greater than had been repre-
sented to him, after deducing actual
selling prices of produce from the
estimate placed by John Rumney.
Stuart Denies Statement
Mr.. Skinner said John knew moth
ing of machinery, but that Stuart
was a good man. a hard and faith
full worker. and that he advised that
Stuart should take charge of the ma
chinery. He testified that John and
Mrs Rumney so harassed Stuart after
that that the latter three times left
the farm. While on the stand as 8
rebuttal witness, Stuart denied that he
had ever left the farm, and said moth
ing but the best of relations ever ex-
listed between the members of the
Rumney family.
Mr.. Skinner said that he lost about
$4,000 as a result of his connec-
tons with the Rumney Ranch com
pany, and is at the present time
personally liable for considerably
more. He said the Rumney broth
ers spent the money and he Dor
rowed to keep the ranch going. As
fast as II money was obtained 1t
was used to pay a debt and stop in
~terest, he testified.
The witness was shown a copy OF
the business transactions of the
ranch showing receipts from October
RI. 1916, to February /. 1917. as
$19.910, and disbursements S7,7o1.
Mr.. Skinner explained this $4,000
difference by saying most of the
receipts were borrowed money, aPpled
to the renewing of notes.
Uses Term "B%lackmail"
During the cross examination. Mr..
Skinner accused Harry II. Austin,
plaintiff attorney. of being a black
mail lawyer. When asked why he
refused to let Austin see the records
of the Runney company before the
present suit was started, Il believed
you were starting n blaekmail suit
against me, and you have. You have
caused those good people TO perjure
themselves This line of talk was
checked by the court.
Benjamin Rumney. who came to
Great Falls with Mr.. Austin from
Rig Timber at the time referred to
in 1920, said he had first gone to
Austin. The Rumney brothers as
rebuttal witnesses said Austin had no,
started the suit and <had asked for
nothing but the facts.

Both defendants denied the charges
and blamed the other women for start
ing tho tight Mrs. Emma Schmidt
said the two factions had not spoken
10 each other for four months. The
night started, according 10 the testi-
mony. when. Mrs. Emma Hannigsr
slammed the door In the face Of hei

Two men passing on tho street, at
tracted by the shrill feminine shrieks
rushed into the house and separated
