TEXAS OIL COMPANY
BRINGS IN field
OIL STRUCK IN WELL Being DRILLED
BY TEXAS COMPANY IN HAMILTON
DOME near CRAIG, COLI.

Welcome news was received by
The Republican Sunday last from
Harry w. Hansen OF Craig. Colo,
to the effect that the Texas Oil Co..
drilling in the Hamilton Dome near
that city. had brought in a well
which would probably reach 5000
barrels production per day.
Later news from Craig, however.
stated that the capacity of the well
was not known as drilling was stop
ped as soon as oil was encountered
and the well was not drilled in. On
Monday afternoon there was over
500 feet of oil standing in the hole
it is believed that the first estimate
OF production will not be far off.
Tho Texas people are planning on
taking care of production and for
the past few days many trucks have
been leaving this city loaded with
steel tanks. Just as 500 as these
tanks are put up the well will be
drilled In,
The bringing in of this well is
welcomed in Rawlins as 1t proves
that the oil belt extends south from
this city and means that several ex-
celltnt structures in the Snake RiV-
dr section will undoubtedly be drilled
within the near future. The deVel-
opment of the Snake River and
Craig sections will be a big incentive
for the construction of a railroad
south from this city.
The fact that even with the minor
development being done near Craig
this city is being used as a supply
center shows what big development
there would mem to Rawlins.

Prisoners at Pen
Stage Fast Bouts

Probably the best boxing card
ever put on in Rawlins was staged
last Sunday afternoon at the State
Penitentiary. Four bouts, or a
total of 10 rounds, were scheduled
to take place between the prison nit
artists and all but one bout went
the limit.
The card opened with a four
round preliminary between Preston
and Cody, two coioref prisoners of
more than average ability in the
padded arena. These boys went a
fast pace throughout their fight ald

was a draw met with general ap-

New U. P. Freight
Rates Now in Effect

Rawlins people will be interested
to know that the new Denver to
Rawlins freight rates are already in
effect. The revision OF the Union
Pacific rates in question became eff
fective Aug. list and are as follows:
New Rates by freight classification:
LIST End Sd 4th 5th
Ii 1.1Sh .9Sh sig .65
A. B. C. d. T..
70 .561a As .35h .2Sh
Other rates on oil well supplies,
casing. etc, has been materially re
duced in proportion so that rates in
effect at Rawlins are as low or
lower than from and to Casper.
The greatest reduction between
Denver and Rawlins is on 3rd and
4th class which cover canned goods
and other food stuffs as the argu-
ment has been advanced by mer-
chants that they could not sell as
cheap as Casper on account of the
freight rates being higher here than
at Casper.
This reduction in rates now clears
practically every known commodity
and class rate difference between
Casper and Rawlins, but should
there arise at any time n cas where
it can be shown that Casper is more
favored in rates than Rawlins Mr..
Lane has stated to the local Agent
III he would arrange "A reduction.

THE RIGHT THING

RIGHT TIME
BINARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
PRIVILEGES OF AGE

THERE are some older men and
= women who seem 10 think that
Just because they are full OF years, rs
the old expression is, that they are
exempt from many of the demands or
good manners. Now this is true In
some cases. For instance. If mans
old age has made ii difficult TO stand
mot try 20 get up for an old lady
unless obviously she is feebier
than he.
But old people are not privileged
and they should remember that they
are not privileged TO be brutality frank.
| think that this is one of the greatest
and most frequent instances of bad
manners among the old. They ac-
qulre n bluntness with years. Then
they say 70 themselves: mo one
cares what I say anyway. They go
ahead and do what they want TO do
have any fun out of telling them just
what / think why shouldn't l take it,"
So there are old women who tel
their children that they think their
children are the worst brought w
children In the world, though. as
matter of fact they dote on those very
grandchildren, and women who tell
their sons that their wives are the
worst housewives imaginable. Now
this sort of thing is really rude and
dscourteous. If there is one thing
that will make people Indifferent to
what old people say it is just this
sort of frankness. At first 1t hurts
and after a while 1t simply gets to be
monotonous. Young persons very
properly look upon old age as an ex-
cuse for certain pieces of bad man.
ners and lack OF courtesy. Just as
extreme youth is given as an excuse
for certain pieces OF rudeness. But
the old man or woman should realize
that 1t really is no very good excuse
at all. II you want to so on having
the best out of life don't acquire a
lot of funny little old man or woman
habits Above all else be courteous.
II there is one thing that makes I'm

GETHSEMANE
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH

TDO NOT think of Christ as God,
\ Some deity beyond the sky;

This earth, and had to live, to die,
And lie to live-I think of Him
Finding His way through paths as dim
AS these OF mine. as full of wrong
With just His faith to keep Him

do not think Of Christ as one
Removed. a deity apart,
But one a-weary when the sun
Brought rest at last to limb and

/ picture Him man of toll,
A brother of the common soil.
A brother OF the sea and road.
A plain religion, simple code.

GERTRUDE

ERTRUDE, SO charmingly femi-
nine, has an origin in war. 1t
signifies spear maid and comes orig
inally from Ghernot, second brother
OF Gunther, who, though free of the
guilt of the murder of Slegfried,
shared the fate Of his brothers by be-
ing killed early in the encounter by
the Markgraf Rudiger Chief among
the feminine names derived from this
warlike source is Valkyr name, Ger
druid or Gertrude. Many pretty maids
of northern lands bore it and consid-
cred themselves battle maids armed
with the spear of Ithuriel.
1t was given popularity by a daugh-
ter of one of the great Pepins; size
founded the Abbey Of Nivelle and was
revered by the Franks and Germans
for the performance Of miracles. The
royal nun Gertrude was also great
favorite in Teutonic lands and the
drinking Of toasts TO Saint Gertrude
at banquets was almost a proverb for
revelry. There was another st. Ger
trude of royal blood In Saxony, who be-
came the abbess of Heldelfs.
In Norway the woodpecker with
black and white plumage and red head
is called the Gertrude bird, and the
legend goes that Gertrude was the
name of the woman who was baking
Tread when our Lord passed by and
asked for morsel; she promised il,
and straightway the dough began to
grow under her hands. In an access
Of greed she repented her promise
and as a punishment she was turned
into a woodpecker and condemned to
seek her living between the bark and
the wood and never to go home until
the red should fall from her head. For
that reason, it is said, the woodpecker
migrates from Norway when she be-
gins to mott.
England uses the name Gertrude
without derivatives, and employs only
one diminutive: Gatty. She is Ger.
trude in France; Gertrude In Italy:
Gertraud and Trudchen in Germany,
and Gertrudes in Portugal
Her talismanic gem is the garnet
which possesses many of the same
qualities Of its relative, the ruby. It
protects the body and mental health
OF its wearer; to dream of it signifies

LOVE OF SOLITUDE
By F. II. WALKER

THE truly great. the large-souled
= men and women who delight In
going afield in the mystic realm OF
thought. you win find are ardent lovers
Of solitude.
They are never lonely wherever they
may be, for they have found the way
10 happiness by getting acquainted
with themselves. whose eompanionship
they prefer TO any other.
Washington chose solitude when he
prayed for strength and guidance in
the forests: Lincoln knew nothing Of
loneliness when he lay upon the floor
of his log cabin before the glow OF
hearth fire studying by its faint light
and pondering the subject matter of
his lessons; the late John Wanamaker
solved his most difficult business prob
lens in privacy.
The men and women OF exclusion,
illuminate the world by dazzling
achievements, born to them IN their
quiet hours of isolation. Their works
hare up like magic torches 10 light the
paths of the faltering and disheart-
ened.
The greatest writer's do their best
work In solitude, often In the night
time, when voices are hushed and ST.
lence is supreme.
And SO. do painters and presidents,
kings and capitalists, students and in
ventors.
There is nothing more inspiring TO
thinking minds than quietude; moth
ing so grandly sublime and impressive
as canopy of stars in a still night
when one is far away from the noisy
haunts OF men with ones own
thoughts.
Only in solitude can man find him
self. 1t was in solitude on the sea-
shore that Demosthenes found him
self, whence he came and stirred the
people of his time with such oratory
as had never been heard.
Real nobility OF the soul dwells
only In the men and women who care
nothing for social gatherings and fri
volities. Such men and women prefer
To be alone with their muses.. where
they find their greatest pleasure in
study, meditation and exploration,
from which the human family ulti-
mately derive benefit.
The best in science, in art and in
literature comes from the people who
choose seclusion in preference to the
glamour Of bright lights and the folly
OF merry-making among turbulent
crowds. barely able to find their way
about. add up column Of figures, or
to tell offhand the number of square

WHAT TO EAT

IF ONE has an old fashioned Scotch
kettle with an iron cover there are
SO many toothsome dishes which may
be prepared by cooking in it.
Chicken, the ordinary fried chicken,
never tastes half SO appetizing as
when it is cooked in this little iron
kettle, covered SO tightly that all the
havors and juices are caught and stay
In the delicious morsels of tender
meat. Put the chicken with a little
butter and sweet lard mixed into the
hot kettle and stir until each piece is
lightly Drowned, then add table
spoonful of water, cover tightly and
cook slowly, adding tablespoonful
or water occasionally as it is needed
when the meat gets brown. The secret
OF this kind of cooking is in keeping
as little water as possible to steam
and cook the meat. Each piece will
be moist, brown, and well cooked.
The seasoning is added when the
chicken has been first Drowned.
Pot roast OF beef, veal, pork or NUT
ton are delicious cooked in this kettle
IN the same way.

LOYALTY

A splendid example OF loyalty
and enthusiasm for the organIza-
ton with which he is affiliated, an
example which is well worthy of
emulation, was shown yesterday
by the Rotarian from Astoria,
Oregon, who made hurried trip
from Washington to Annapolis
10 attend the meeting of the local
Rotary Club.
Although he was three thou
sand miles from home, being iii
the nations Capitol on business,
Rotarian c. w. Hollerman did
not forget that his own club out
on the Pacific slope was holding
a Zone Hundred Per Cent. At
tendance" meeting, and that, IN
order to keep the attendance rec
ord OF his club at the perfection
mark, it was necessary for him
TO be present at some Rotary ses-
sion no matter where he happen
ed to be. AS related in the news
story printed herein yesterday,
when he discovered that the near
est Rotary meeting was sci'edul-
ed for Annapolis he n me the
journey here in the quickest time
possible, attended the local meet
ing and thereby helped to pre-
serve intact his own orgaIlza-
tons Hundred Per Cent lee
ord and to uphold the tradition
that attendance is the dynamo of
Rotary activity, just as Service
above Self" is its motto.
Such fidelity as this really is
deserving of commentator, for
in the strenuousness OF these
modern times, when there arc so
many and diverse exac.ionS upon
ones time, it frequently happens
that one is prone to be remiss in
attention to what might be con
sidered as sidelights of ones &C
Invites. That the Oregon Rotar-
ian did not let his enthusiasm
and faithfulness to duty be queIl-
ed in the slightest even by the
many miles of distance that sep
arated him from his icllow-club-
men out on the coast, speaks well
for the high calibre of the mem
bership composing the Astoria
Rotary Club.

by Napoleon / at his coronation at
Milan on May 26, 1906, have been sur.
rendered by Austria to Italy in ac.

plies in Italy and carried them of
