The Monarch Shale Oi! company of Denver, which recently made sveral successful runs of crude oil distilled from oil shale at its plant 13 miles north of Debeque, Colo, has leased for two years the refinery of the Apex Refining company, at. Loomis, near Boulder, Colo. The purpose of the company is to refine the crude from its shale and conduct certain experi- ments until such time as it can erect its own plant at Debeque,.for which it has purchased a site. The com- pany also has purchased an old gas well at Debeque which will be used for a fuel supply. The Apex refinery has been shut down for some time and an officer of the Apex compan, says that the lease of the plant is a temporary arrangement apd does not involve a sale. Crude oil obtained from shale varies to a certain extent from crude petroleum and while they are refined by similar methods, there is a waste of 25 to 30 per cent owing to the custom- ary method for handling petroleum crude not being adapted to the recov- ery of certain properties peculiar to the shale crude. The Monarch com- pany uses the Ginet process in recov- ing crude from shale and has some patented processes for the refining of the crude with which it will experi- ment. ‘Milared Davis.

Sheriff Kelly said that Mrs. Hem- ming knew about the caretaker's in- tention to kill her husband if he should try to force his way into her home. “I believe it was her duty to pre- vent the crime she knew was going to happen,” the sheriff said.
