"VAMPS" WHO
 MADE HISTORY
A WOMAN OF MYSTERY.
By JAMES C. YOUNG

THE year 174S found Elizabeth on 4 the throne of Russia. The story of her love for choir boy already has been told in this series. But there is far stranger story, which concerns Genevieve de Beaumont. This young French woman arrived in Russia in the year named and pres. ently became reader for Elizabeth. When ministers dropped in, Genevieve would retire to a distance and i'm merse herself In book. And the ministers felt themselves safe to con- verse with Elizabeth. After they had gone the empress often would comment on what they had said. Genevieve always showed respectful interest, but remarked that she did not under stand such matters. That was her at tttude when she went around with of fcers of the court, although she ire Quently asked innocent questions about fortitications, armies and many other things. And all of this informa- ton was being transmitted to France.
 High Russian officials became con- vinced that an astute spy had oh- tained entrance 10 court. They checked over every person there, and suspicion fastened on Genevieve The empress would hear no word against her. It was even intimated that there was strange love between the two. But Genevieve. apparently brOken-hearted, said that she could remain no longer. In leaving, she implored the favor of the empress for her brother, the Chev- alier dEou, whom she said would vis- it Russia the next year
 GeneyieVe left the spying stopped, and the officials hreathed easily. Then came the Chevalier dEon. gallant young Frenchman. who was not long in making his way at court But he was very different personality from Genevieve.
 The chevalier gained the favor of Elizabeth. who suddenly decided to take sides with France in war against Prussia, then threatening. Once more court officials were in con- sternation, for many of them favored Prussia
 The chevaher announced that he would visit France for time and after great deal of protestation by Elizabeth, he went. Then the truth came out. Genevieye de Beaumont and the Cheyaler dEon were the same person. Immediately the court recalled that Eli.heth had been re- ported In love fth both. and won- dered, But here Is the remarkable part of the whole story, and something which never has been solved-was this strange historical figure really wom- an or iu fact a man?

Montana OIL Field News
RISE or CRUDE
In N0RTHFIELD
WELL IS RAPID
Fluid Expected to Come Up
to Water Level in
Short Time.

---------
Rise of the fluid i'll the Mortified
well at Genou to within 40 feet of the
top of the casing, the same height
reached by the water flow encountered
before the oil was struck. is consid-
cred a probability by the owners. Fore
ing of the present stand of crude
through the lime cap is considered, in
the absence of gas, certain evidence
of enormous hydrostatic pressure, the
status of the well now suggesting that
there may be close relationship be-
tween the rise of oil and the former
rise of water.
The fluid continued to rise in the
casing Tuesday, the last measurement
reported placing it at 700 feet. This
measurement was made about midday
and it was thought probable that the
stand was 500 feet by evening.

by T. f. McCue. one of the trustees.

McCue was informed Tuesday by tele-
gram, and will arrive here before the
end of the week. 1t is the present
intention to do no more drilling until
they arrive, but McCue stated Tues
day evening that the we'll will be bailed
today to determine the present flow
of oil and to learn conclusively whether
the water flow has been shut off. In
bailing thus far done, there has been
nothing to indicate that water is find
ing it's way into the well. Less than
100 feet of water was left in the hole
when drilling was suspended Sunday
evening.
Development
The owners Tuesday discussed plans
for further development of the field,
the present intention being TO drill two
additional wells this fall if weather
conditions permit. The NorthfIeid
Oil company now is a common law
trust. but will be converted immedi-
ately into a corporation with ample
capital for an extensive drilling cam
paign, according to McCue.

LAST ELECTION
Minister Discusses Effects on
Prohibition Over
Country.

Evidence indicating that the last
election was not in any great sense a
prohibition election" was given in
facts Tuesday evening by the Rev. L.
L. Totten in a talk before the mem
bers of the w. G. t. T., which met at
the home of Mrs. George Stow of 1925
Third avenue north. The subject of
his address was "a Study of Election
Returns and It's Effect Upon Prohibit
ton"
He attributed his first statement 10
the fact that the voting population ut
large have taken the attitude that the
Volstead act is here to stay and that
only popular vote could remove it. He
credited the w. G. 7. q. unions estab-
lished not only in this county but
through the world for the present
bright outlook on the enforcement of
the Volstead act.
''Thanksgiving in Word and Deed"
was the subject of several short talks

ments are being made with one Of the

service.

CAR TOO SLOW
FOR OWNER OF
new OIL WELL
McCue Charters Plane to Visit
Field; Makes Record
Time.

When you've just learned that you've
had an oil well come in, even an auto
seems too slow in getting to it.
That was the position of Harold
McCue of Great Falls, who with his
father, T. F. McCue, is interested in
the Mortified Oil company on the
Genou fold. Harold McCue was in
Shelby Monday, having gone sthere
Sunday with A. r. Ripley by motor.
The Genou well was looking good at
that time, but McCue believed that
he would have time to complete his
northern trip before it came in.
He was at Shelby Monday night,
Great Falls, with the result that he
went to bed without any inkling of
what was happening at the GenOu.
He slept late Tuesday morning and
it was after breakfast that he was
shown a copy of a newspaper telling
of the finding of oil in the Genou
well. 1t seemed a long hard trip from
Shelby to Genou, but McCue was ready
to take it when he happened upon
Earl I. Vance, commercial flyer of
Great Falls.
How long will it take to get ready
to fly from here to the Mortified
well?" asked McCue.
About five minutes" was Vance's
answer and in just about that time the
two were in the cockpit of Vance's
plane ready for the trip. In 30 minutes
they had landed at the Genou well
and after a few minutes stop to de-
termine the status of the well, they
took the second leg of the flight to
Great Falls, making it in 20 minutes.
a total flying time of 20 minutes. s

REPORT BUSTER
AT M0NTANA-S.>
NEAR BERG WELL
Bit Reaches Madison Without
Finding Production in
kootenai or Ellis.

One Of the surprises of the Kelvin
Sunburst field Tuesday was the report
that the Montana-Sweetgrass well on
section 1921 W, six miles east of
the Ohio-Berg gasser, was IN the lime
stone of the Madison without produc-
ton in either the Kootenai or Ellis
sands.
The well was reported to be 10 feet
into the Madison limestone. The depth
of the we'll Tuesday night was reported
to be 1878 feet. The Montana Sweet
grass is reported to be about 100 feet
lower structurally than the Ohio Berg;
It failed to encounter the principal
part of the Berg sand, having only
seven feet of tight sand, similar TO
the top of the coarser gas sand ln@the
Berg.
The theory of the lenticular sands
in the Kootenai was brought forward
by biologists to explain the action IN
the Berg and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
wells. Biologists point out that the
Troy Sweetgrass in section 21-34-l W
had a thick sand in the kootenai and
say hat the lensing might run north
east from the Berg with the possibility
that it may be two or more units from
the Troy-Sweetgrass.
The action of the field. in that
wells with seemingly little production
are not far distant from producers,
will have the result not wholly shat
tering hopes of production in this i'm
mediate vicinity. For the present, at
least, it appears that the prospecting

AT most. not more than % per cent
of the Indians will be among those
who will need help from the govern

talk that Indians will starve to death
on the reservation. Ample care will
be taken of them.
THE government during the last
