AN ORIENTAL aoMANos

In spite of all we know about Aciat
ic peoples there is reserve and a GER
tain amount Of mystery around them
which the white race has never pene-
trated. This is particularly true in
connection with the Chinese and jap
anese. A few novelists-a very few-
have lived among them and have made
their customs, their characteristics and
their peculiar qualities of mind sub
jects Of very interesting tales. One
Of the recent Of these novelists il the
young Californian, Sidney Hsrschsl
Small, who has spent . considerable
portion Of his life in Japan. He has
written a number of enticing short
stories and recently novel, "The
Lord Of Thunder Gate, I" . stirring sad
colorful romance >of mystery, adven-
ture and love. The hero and heroine
are American, but many Of the oths,
characters are japanese. The actisn
alternates between Japan and San

CRAIG OIL FIELDS

Craig, Colo, April 2s.-Former Gov
ernor Oliver H. Shoup has arrived here
from Denver to conduct an extensive
survey of property under consideration
by company Of state capitalists, Of
which he is the head. The land which
the syndicate is surveying lies in the
Dry Lakes and Deception Creek dis
trict, thirty miles west of Craig. 81
The syndicate of which Shoup, is
president also has attained lease of
4s0 acres on the Morgan dome, about
twenty miles from Craig, which, it is
expected will be tested by the Union
Oil company of Colorado this summer.
This lease is located ON section. 1855
which belongs to the state. The struc-
ture is also known as the Elk Springs
dome.
A geological report of the territory
in close proximity to Craig has been
made by R. Bruce McCullum, who esti-
mates that oil may be found at depth
OF $500 feet close in.
Reports of leasing activities by the
Sinclair interests continue to come in
from various sections of the state. In
addition to leases recorded in the name
of w. l.. Connolly in the Berthoud
district recently, others have been filed
on 800 acres in Sec. 24-4-90, Moffat
county, southeast of the Texas Produc-
ton company we'll

SCHOOL CONTEST AT RIFLE

The county contest to be given at
Rifle Saturday of this week is open
to both rural and urban schools and
promises to be well attended. Every.
one. is requested to bring a basket
lunch, and coffee will be served at
noon by the Rifle Parent Teachers as
socition. ,l
The contest will include orations
for both grade and high school chill
dren; spelling, dramatic, defamation
penmanship. 1t will also include ex
hibits of different kinds and an ath
letic contest or track meet. 1W.J
This promises to be one of the big
gest school affairs to be held for some
time, and will be well represented by
the local schools.

dollars per claim, and thus the law was
made farce. Ul
Summers filed upon and established
his residence on the land and set out
to improve it upon the theory and
under the assumption that there were
no conflicting claims, the records at
the land office showing no filings on
the same. 1t is very apparent that the
present system of recognizing oil shale
filings made in the county clerk .
office and requiring homestead entries
to be filed in the U. 8. land office is
wrong, conflicting, misleading and un-
fair and should not be tolerated longer.
Neither the G1enwood land office
nor Attorney Darrow nor Attorney
Frank Delaney, who represented Mr..
Summers in the local contest, has re-
ceived a copy Of the Washington de-
cision, the only information thus far
received being in telegram from
Washington to Mr.. Darrow, saying that
the local decision had been reversed,
Mr.. Delaney, acting on the assumption
that the information is correct, says
lhe-vahappeal the case to the secretary
of the interior just as soon as he re-
ceiyes copy of the Washington de-
cision, and he is convinced that the
local decision is correct and that it
should be sustained.

TENNESSEE PASS OPEN

With the aid of Charles Baker OF
the State Highway commission, CO.
operating with the county commission.
ers of Eagle and Lake counties, Ten,
nessee pass was opened a week ago
today, April "a, but no sooner had the
winter drifts been broken through
than another storm again filled the
road with snow, and there was grief
and travail for auto travellers.
However, the road is again open and
cars are making the trip over it every
day, although it cannot be said that
the trip is at all enjoyable, but it is
believed that with fair weather the
road will soon be placed in good con.
dition for regular travel.

eeo|ogist Claims Town is
Located on Edge Of Prom
9 isiag Oil Dome
ACTIVE INTEREST here

Craig, Colo, April 0s.-Craig is ON
tn. very edge Of an oil structure IL
certain statements become facts. Here
tofcre it has been stated that while
there was little doubt that oil under
laid this part Of Moffat county, it
would be found At too great depth
below the surface to make drilling pos
siblc, therefore little attention has been
given to the country immediately sur
rounding Craig.
Now comes veteran geologist, B.
Bruce McCleIland, with the statement: :
"Craig Is over the crust Of oil, snd
is located on the edge Of structures
which are ON the east and west of
tcwI. The depth to oil under Craig
will be just twice the depth to oil on
the two high buttes southeast of town.
These buttes, which were puckered M
in some great uplift, are the apex Of
the structure, and here OIL will be
found at depth Of $500 feet. It will
be nearly eight thousand feet unde,
Craig, for the town is in what We car
a depression" sfhf
During the past week representative,
for several companies have been work
ing this territory, which is now known
a. tho Bresse Basin structure, and 4
number of leasss ara being taken. A
was stated some time ago, leases OF
land extending for distance Of eigh,
miles east Of town have already ben
taken. 80

SEES GREAT FUTURE

Tha' there is great future for
Western Colorado, and especially Gar
field county, is the prediction of W.
NJ. Amsbury, former resident of Glen
wood Springs but for several years
located in Los Angeles, who returned
Tuesday to make his home here, and
to help develop the latent and hidden
resources of this favored section.
"For long time I have chafed
under the strain of city life and have
yearned for the freedom which to me
only the country town can supply. I
have grown so tired of mingling with
a great mass Of people and jostling
and elbowing my way through the
crowds that are constantly surging
through the streets of Los Angeles
where no one knows anybody and no
one seems to care what becomes Of
the other fellow. It's just cat and
sleep, get up in the morning and 60 to
the office and stay all day and then
back to the hotel and stay all night,
and repeat the program the next day
and the next thirty days and all the
rest of the year. I just begrudged you
people back here in Glenwood your
opportunity to look each other in the
face and regard each other a. . friend
and call each other by your first name
and feel that you have something in
COMMUNICATING you can't do in a
big city where you live for one or two
or five years and never get acquainted
with your next door neighbour"
Thus spoke Mr.. Amsbury as he ex-
panded his chest and filled his lungs
full of good Glenwood ozone while he
told the reporter Of his plans to bring
large sums Of California money to this
section to develop some Of the rich oil
and mining country Of Western Colora.
do which he says il better known and
more talked about in Los Angeles than
in Glenwoed Springs.
Mr.. Amsbury scpmes here to repre
sent some influential capitalists Of
California who have plenty Of money
to put into properties that show indica
tfons of possibilities for successful de
velopment, and II the properties which
he investigates are found to be such al
to warrant = favorable report the com
pany geologist, who 10 recognized
authority on oil property, drilling viii

Mason and Mitchell, who head the
Western Exploration company, returned
to Denver Monday. following a short
stay in Craig. While here these two
Californians, practical oil operators,
made trips to various parts Of the

his eightieth birthday the noted
Artic explorer was rendered recep-
ton last Friday by Mr.. and Mrs. Gill
bert Grosvenor After being severely
wounded in the civil war, Gen Greedy,
between the years of 1881 and 1884,
while in the polar regions, suffered
hardships which killed most of his
party and which were calculated to
leave any survivor an invalid for life.
Within the past few years he has also
undergone severe surgical operations.
yet today is in the best of health Ac-
cording to scientists who are greatly
interested in the veterans physical

heredity and environment. He grew

tions back were born on the seacoast
of New England, famous for its hardy
types of humanity.
