During the past three weeks many difficulties have been met with at the well. The light casing that was in the well had to be removed in order to re- place it with a heayy casing that would withstand the enormous pres- sure of rock and water. Over 2,000 feet of D. B. X. extra hedvy casing at a cost of $4,840, was procured ‘and is now at the well site ready to be placed. In pulling out the old casing much trouble was encountered which hindered with the progress of the} work. In taking it out it came apart! Weak, Thin, Nervous several times and smal] sections had to be fished from the bottom of the well, in getting out the last section of this easing the cable broke and the tools and all went to the bottom, In order to regain these tools a trap spear had to be procured from Park- ersburg, Pa. This arrived the first of. the week and the tools were fished out of the well yesterday. Mr. Phillips said, “It will perhap: take us a week to put the new cas ing in the hole and get oil of the water shut off. We will then be able to tell ,in what quantities the oil is to be found. It might be a gusher and is present at the bottom all indications point to such.” DEATH TRAINS FEARFUL FEATURE OF SIBERIAN ’ RAILWAY TRAVEL TODAY TOKIO, Jan, 15.—The death trains constitute ‘a fearful feature of - the Siberian railroad, says Colonel R. Teusler, American Red Cross comm sioner to Siberia, Into these trains are packed at the front, say, 500 ‘re- fugees most of them suffering from typhus or some other disease and 1In- fested. with vermin. The trains are sent eastward from Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 15.—Steph- en Leacock, satirist and economist, rather likes to have his collegé boys up at McGill university in Montres) call him “Prof”, he said, He even: would permit himself to be called} “Doe”, he declared, but as for talking literature before breakfast, he hope he wouldn’t be thought unkind if he said “nothing doing.” Professor Leacock was in bed. ‘But I feel in the mood for discuss- ing something,” he said, “How about the mudpuddles lying ahead of us} economically?” UNDERGROUND PLOT SEEN He tousled his iron gray hair and; between yawns said: “There is no short and easy remecy for the world's difficulties. - Beware the man with the medicine which he {maintains wit cure bunions, pneu: | monla: and astigmatisin. “There js nothing disastrous in the! real labor movement, but upon the un- derground conspiracy aguinst society which masquerades as a labor moye- ment we must set our heel upon a} poisonous snake. “Socialism is.a mudpuddle.

None of the town along the way want the refugees to be added to their own troubles so the trains are passed along, the refugees dying on the way. 1 the tine the train reach: frequently more than half the sufferers have died. As the bodies are removed from the — cars every morning, ‘fresh passengers are likely to be thrust in in their places. Another feature of the suffering’ of the inhabitants according to Colonel Teusler ,are the towns composed 01 dugouts which are to be found in many places. holes in the ground Jn which th inhabitants are herded. Smallpox is frequently among them, Colonel: Teusler said that underwear is One of’ the greatest needs of the; Siberian peeple, Many girls of: peop'e | formally well-to-do are now clothed in rags. If they could have ribbons and simple laces, he said, it would help to support the morale of the people. SOVIET MOVEMENT IN ASIA IS NOT GENUINELY RED THE HAGUE, Dec. 30.—The ap- parent Bolshevik movement in parts of Southern Asia and the East Indies is not so much genuine Bolshevism as it is a movement directed agains: Great Britain ,according to a Dutcn official who is in constant touch with affairs in the Far East. “We have learned”, this official told The Associated Press correspondent, People Should Take Bitro-Phosphate What 1 Is Add Mow It Increases _ Weight, Strength and Werve-Force.
