The sand was first reached late Fri.

the top of the derrick when the tools
were pulled out of the hole.
In addition to the production of the
bottom sand, which is the third pro.

well has drilled, oil is periodically
flowing from the two upper sands
which have been bradenheaded and
drilled through at depths Of 1927
feet and 1371-142S feet.
Early reports relative to the top OF
the bottom sand gave the depth as
1864. but later measurements re.
vealed ii to be at l559 feet. Prior TO
entering the oil sand, a gas sand with
estimate production Of 100000 feet
was drilled through at 1552-59 feet.

ROMANCE OF PACIFIC
 BEING WRITTEN WITH
 PASSING ARMY FLEET

SAN FRANCISCO, June 19.--tBy the Associated Press )-The last chapter of one stirring romance of the Pacific is being written with the passing of the old army transport fleet The Logan is on her last of ficial voyage to the Philippines and the Sherman arrived home recently. Two, the Dix and tho Sheridan, al ready have been retired, while the Buford will be operated until .Octo- ber and then be offered for sale, according to present rlans. The Thomas, another one of the old-tim- CTS, will Tbe continued in the sery- ice indefinitely.
 The Sherman perhaps offered the most stirring history of all. Named after the famous general whose trade mark for war has been generally ae- cepted wherever wars are fought and elsewhere, she played a heroic part in rushing troops to the Philippines ito back up Dewey's conquosts. Later she returned the famous old First California regiment from the Islands for a welcome that some still main tain has never been equaled in San Francisco for events of the kind

PREHISTORIC MOUND
 MAKES WAY FOR ONE
 MODERN ICE PLANT

ST. LOUIS. Mo, June 19.-The last of the famous mounds, which skirted the Mississippi River in North St. Louis, and which gave this city the sobrfquet, "The Mound Ciyt," is be- ing levelled to make way for an ice plant. Hr
 This last of the old mounds, which are supposed to have been built in prehistoric times, is about 800 feet in length and about 300 feet wide.
 The excavating forces report that spears, arrow heads and peculiarly shaped pebbles are fOund in the mounds, which in times past have been the sites of homes of early St L6nisians
 When St Louis was founded there were 27 of these mounds leading from the little city on what was called by scientists the "seconl bank" of the river. They were strik- ing parts eff She landscape in the na.ghborhood and impressed visitors 10 the place When the city became a small town the mounds caused it Q be c9flod the Mound City, a. though the growth of the town has obliterated most of tho traces of the artificial elrthworks.

 On the other hand, the Hawaiian planters complained that 1t was diff cult ito make the laborcr5 work con stantay, the report says. This lack CG diligence and perseverance was the rc13on why planters did not assign FiMpiros to work in the sugar cen trals or 10 other work involving re sronsitility. according to the report The planters also complained that tho Filipinos failed to take proper care of the quarters furnished them this being the principal reason why thay were not given better quarters in which to live Continuing.

wool fabrics trade. All eyes are riveted
on the American WOODEN Company at
this moment because this big factor. as
a rule. generally opens its lines immedi-
ately after the Fourth of July holiday
What prices will be named and how
they will compare with previous levels
continues to be perplexing question.
Total advances on the fabrics lines for
the coming fall season have been esti-
mated at around II per cent. These in
creases. however. were the result Of
soaring prices in the primary market.
The slight recessions In raw wool prices
in the last fortnight, due to the with
drawal Of manufacturers from the
market, have done much to allay the
apprehensions of conservative wool
goods men that values might be placed
out of the bounds of consumer pur-
chasing power. Prominent factors re-
garded the probable course of opening
prices of fabrics as purely matter for
conjecture.
