La napoleonica carrera de
Doheny en- ell mundo
del petr6leo

Doheny habia encontrado ese oH0,
pero no logr6 obtencr una gran partt-
cipacion on 81. aunque 81 10 que obtuvo
era una cantidad surttoSa para un
joven que todavia no legaba la meJof
edad. En- lugar de quedarse removiendo
cada pa1ada do TERRA con los recion
llegados, Sc march6 de alh para ir 3
buscar en- otras parties oil metal ANA
rillo. FL afio siguiente 10 encontr6 ira
bajando en- ell distrito de Wild Rye
Creek, iniciando la exploitation de otro
campo. Una vez mas su participation
fue moderada, y de nuevo el deseo de
movimiento le impeli6 a lan2arss Ell
ruevps empresas.
oTRo GoLPE AFoRTUNADo
Sc vic reducido varias veces a la Pc
nuria antes de que otro descubr1miento
Sc atravesara en- su camino tres amos
mas tarde, en- ell campo de Black RAN
ge, en- Nuevo M6jico. Esta vez su par
ticipacion fue mas impertante pro-
bablemente la guard6 mejor, pero sin
q. llegara por ESQ hacerle Iico. Peso los
resultados, con ell amino resuelto con-
tinuo aceptando todas las oportunid&-
dies que Sc le presentaban. La maxima
de su vida parece encontrarse compren
dido en- estas palabras' ''No hay que
volver la vista hacia atras'', y parece
que mantuvo esa idea constantemente
fila en- su memoria. DeSde el momento
en- que era un hombre de temperamen-
to ardiente, que nunca eludia las mo-
lestias y que no esperaba que otro le
marcara la direction, era natural que
tropezara con infortunios. Uno dc los
mas grandes de estos fue cuando cayo
en- ell tiro de una nina y Sc romp1o
ambas piernas. Doheny tuvo que guar
dar CANA, y por fuerza SO vic sUteto
: mantenerse en- quiet1d durante ei
periodo que necesitaron sus hueScs pa
ra soIdarse. Pero esa inactividad f1si
ca forzosa no sc hizo extensive a su in
teligencia. Durante las tediosas sema-
mas de la curacion Sc dedic6 al estud1o
de las leyes, y al encontrarse restable-
cido, solicito ser admtido la practtcs
de la abogacia. Sc examine, fue apro-
bado, abrio su bufete. ~,
Tai vez esa fractura de las piernas
contribuyo a que abandonara suS ira
bajos como explorador. De todaS suer-
tes, ejerci6 la abogacia durante un
afio, y lueFo abandono esa nueva pro-
fesion. Su prosaica Seguridad no po-
dia compararse con la attraction que
lie presentaban una asada y una pala,
ell modesto eqripaje de tin batnbustno
y la probabilidad de encofitrarse con
el solado polvo de ORC. I'm hombre que
conocio Doheny en- aquella epoca,
dice que era raro un Estado on ell oes-
te, una barranca un campo de oro
en- ell que Doheny no hnbiera hundido
su piqueta y extraido .:oro. Recorrio
toda la region del oeste, ,desde' una
frontera hasta la otra, siempre persl-
guiendo al pequefio dios de la suerte.
A veces parecio estar punto de apo
derarse de 81, pero sus descubrimientos
nunca fueron de primer orden.

DUE HERE FRIDAY
General Will Likely Make Visit to
 rminghampOrt

Gen. T. Q. Ashburn, superintendent of transportation of the Mississippi-War- rior barge service, will arrive in. Bir- mingham Friday morning over the l.. & N. railroad, according to information received in Birmingham Wednesday. His visit to Birmingham this time IS causing the deepest interest of the many matters that are pending relative to the Warrior service, which may be finally decided by General Ashburn and his advisory committee following the visit
 General Ashburn will be joined here by Robert A. Brown. member of the committee, and will probably make trip to BirminghampOrt The details of his program were not available.
 Industrial men in Birmingham are deeply interested in the visit of General Ashburn, and believe the in- spection will prove to be valuable to the river service. It is stated that several matters of policy are up for de- cision including pending changes.
 The ports of New Orleans and Mobile have been visited by General Ashburn, who will also visit Montgomery while on this trip to confer with prominent citizens of that city relatives to the service.
 In Birmingham the opinion has been generally accepted that the war depart ment intends to provide superior serv- ice on the line and will not permit any interference with it's efficiency. It is stated that the advisory committee act ing with General Ashburn has com pleted data on many interesting phases of the barge line service.

DOING HIS BEST
 TO AID WARRIOR, sf4ik ASHBURN AYERS
Says Barge Line To Be
 Given Thorough Trial ' As Separate Unit

MOBILE, Ala. Sept. 10.-(Special '-Beased Wire. e.)-Assurance that direct ing heads of the Warrior river barge line are doing everything possible to prove the line of benefit to shippers and the public in general was given to busi- ness interests of Mobile today by Gen eral T. Q. Ashburn, head of the In- . land Waterways corporation, who came from New Orleans. where he had con ferences with persons interested in the operation of the barges.
 He was in conference during the day with members of the Warrior river com- mittee of the Chamber of Commerce , and was their guest at an informal luncheon in a private dining room at the Battle House. At the luncheon the guest and hosts discussed various mat ters, including informal references to the Warrior river, which has just been separated from the Mississippi-War . system. The Warrior river, it was stat ed, will be given a thorough trial, un- hampered by connection with the Mis- sissippi river system, and will stand or fall on it's own merits. These were the things shippers and friends of the barge line were told by General Ashburn.
 Off For Montgomery
 The general, accompanied by Captain E. V. Pickley, operating manager of the Warrior line here, arrived in Mobile this morning and spent a full day dis cussing the Warrior service. He left tonight for Montgomery. General Ash , burn said that several banks, believing in the ultimate success of the Warrior service, have offered financial backing to build the system to proper strength.
 Additional equipment, including the merchandise carrier, Tuscaloosa, will be i purchased, he said. The Tuscaloosa is TOW under construction at St. Louis and will be pressed into service immediately upon completion, or within two months.
 Shipping interests aFplauded the statement of the general to the effect the directors are now working out plan to remove the embargo which was placed against Cordova, Tuscaloosa and up-river stations, and this action will result in much good to the port and Warrior service, it was stated. A new rate tariff, advantageous to Mobile, ls' in the making, it was stated.

PLANTS TO SUSPEND FOR DEFENSE DAY

Plants not engaged in continuous Op- eratioDs will be closed Friday for Ma Etional Defense Day upon the invitation eof the war department. Immediately supon receiving the invitation the Ten gnessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com tpany announced that it's plants would sbe closed except those departments swhich are engaged in continuous process of manufacture.
 Offices in Birmingham will be closed Friday, all construction work will stop sand only necessary operations will con ttinue. The example of the Tennessee Company will be followed as consistently jas possible by other companies of the Adistrict, from Bessemer to Irondale. It shas been previously stated by execu itives of the Woodward, Sloss, Republic iand others that they would cooperate Ito the fullest measure in whatever plans 1.-the war department thought proper. iTheir position is traceable to a simi- liar policy prevailing during the war. The companies have without excep- tion made it plain to all employees that their participation in any parade or oth- Ter formalities is matter for their in- Fdividual choosing. it not being cOnsid- cred within the province of the compa- ' nies to make any suggestions in that regard.

Greatest Parade In Bif- mingham's History
 Expected

Final details of Birmingham great Defense Test Day demonstration Fri day were discussed at a meeting of the general committee on arrangements, composed of members of the nine Bir- mingham exemption boards, at the armory Wednesday.
 Reports to the committee indicated that Fridays observance will bring out the most extensive parade of any character ever held in Birmingham, and the patriotic exercises to follow at the Temple theater will tax the seating ca pacity of that auditorium. Congress- man w. B. Oliver, who will deliver the principal address, will arrive in the city Thursday night.
 The committee issued request to every railroad in Birmingham and every industrial plant to blow its whistles for at least five minutes beginning at noon Friday, to remind Birmingham that it is time to mobilize for Defense Day. It is also requested that the national anthem be played at 12:30. o'clock on the carillon of the First Presbyterian church and on the chimes of the High lands Methodist church. It is urged that every home and every business house in the city display the American flag Friday, and every individual who marches in the parade is requested to provide himself with small American flag.

BAKER TELLS TRUTH IN
 MFRJDEN SPEECH

Newton D. Baker, secretary Of war unser President Wilson. at a time when that job was one of the most ,mportant in the annals Of history, made a speech in Meridcn last night in which he spoke a few homely truths direct from the shoulder
 He declared that President Coolidge has been unable to exert any infu- ence upon Republican congress be- cause it was broken and scattere" in groups and blocs," Should Mr. Coolidge be reelected, he said there is no hope of his exerting a whit more influence during the next four vears than he has exerted the past year.
 The facts are the Republican party os inc east is an entirely different sort of party in many of Its most .aIient features than the same party in the west. There is scarcely any, thing in common between an eastern .na a western Republican except inc name The two divisions are dia- n.trically opposed to one another in many important partIs'A--rs.

TWO BOYS ON ONE WHEEL DANGEROUS

Youths wbo ride bicycles on which they carry other youths on the handle bars or frame are taking the lives of themselves in their hands. The practice Is species Of reckless driving, for such youthful cyclists cannot be said to have their ma chimes undH control
 It Is one of the most foolhardy things imaginable when persisted in on thoroughfare where many au- tomobiles are encountered, There are men and youths who do not care to ride a bicycle on crowded streets, yet one continually sees two youths on one wheel attempting 10 ride on our most congcsted thoroughfares,
 Such double" riding of bicycles should never be attempted except on byways; and perhaps not even then. It would he wisdom for policemen and traffic officers to warn all youths seen riding bicycles in this manner. 1t is not permitted in many cities.

TOO EASY TO LEAVE CITY AFTER CRIME

One of the disconcerting things relating to the murder of Policcman James Skclly is how the murderer could so easily depart from the city. One reasonable clue appears to be availablc-that he got aboard a trol- Icy car in Ncwington and left it after riding a short distance.
 If this passenger was Chapman, it is clear that he walked from New Britain 70 Newing,on, and that he caught a car there that had left the center after the murder had been committed, and at time when the operator of the car could not have avoided knowing about the tragedy in the nearby department store.
 But not only was the misereant able to walk from the city unmo- tested, but he was able to board and leave a car without being bothered. Of course, it is expecting too much, perhaps, for unarmed citizens to at tempt to stop an armed bandit in flight; but something is wrong when murdrrers can get out of the city so easily directly after committing such a crime-the second within month.

NATURES FINE PAINTING HUNG IN THE SKIES

Connecticut sunsets are Of inclta- ble beauty; they finger in memory's mansion like the remembrance of loves first kiss, And they have this advantage over inc kiss--they form the postlude 10 every bright day and no two of them are ever quite alike.
 There is a plcnitude of reason to call attention to our sunsets In this age of rapid motor transportation so many people are busy watching the road lying ahead, and appear to be so anxious to get somewhere in hurry, that the polychrome tinted sky in lhe west every evening ll too frequently is a show that plays to a thanklcss, needless and uninspired audience.
 It may be claimed that Connecu- cuts sunsets are no prettier than sunsets elsewhere and somewhat in- ferior to those in more favored chimes. This may be true in some respects. but not in all. The majestic beaSss of a gorgeous sunse. = Con-
