FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JULY -12, 1896 31 THE PLACE TO BORE FOR PAYING OIL, Immense Quantities of Petroleum in This State. Much Scientific Information Ob- tained for the State by W. L. Watts, Examined Geclcgical Formation and Mapped Out All Southern Oil Districts. Long investigations just completed by the State Mining Bureau confirm the article published in THE CALL a few days ago in which A. 8. Cooper, the Santa Barbara aspbaltum and oil expert, de- clared that California has great possibili- ties as an oil producer. W. L. Watts returned yesterday from the southern part of the State, where for almost a year and a half he has been con- stantly at work examining and mapping the oil districts of Santa Barbara, Ventura and Los Angeles counties. He hasdonean enormous amount of work alonglinesthat bad not before been scientifically followed in California, and he has collected much valuable data which he will later embody in s pamphlet report treating the subject of the oil fields of the State. “There is an immense quantity of oil in California,” said Mr. Watts, when seen at the Grand shortly after his arrival. “All the way from San Diego to Humboldt County there is a great oil district follow- ing the slopes of the Coast Range. “Mr. Crawford, the State Mineralogist, anticipated the growing importance of pe- troleum as a California product, for it was at his suggestion that I undertook this work in Southern California, I was de- tailed to gather all the “informa- tion obtainable concerning the cur- rents of petroleum in the, southern districts and to make sketch maps show- ing the geological position of formations yielding the oil, the object being to ascer- tain on what geological horizons prospect- ing for petroleum would be likely to be most successful. “Many men have been working on the same igea in the Eastern oil States. It is something that requires much time and labor. Here the completion of the work will require careful and persistent effort, as the broken nature of the geological for- mation in the Coast Range made it a task more difficult than that undertaken in the Eastern oil regions. “I haye examined and n.apped the Sum- merland oil district, a few miles below the city of Santa Barbara; the oil district north of S8anta Paula in Ventura County; the Sespe oil fields in the same county; the Los Angeles oil fields; the Puente oil fields, also in Los Angeles County; and all the country intervening. I was greatly interested in the work and was in the fleld seven days in the week for nearly a year and a half. ‘““There is still a good deal of work to be done in working up the paleontological conditions. My report will show*the geo- logical borizon of oil-bearing formation where they are situated, their extent and the structural conditions in whish oil oc- curs in valuable quantities,” American Prices at Moscow. Readers of the daily papers interested in the descriptive articleson the Czar's coronation in the old capital of Muscovy may have seen among other paragraphs the important statement, evidently cabled over to America for the special benefit of all of us, that “forty-nine eminent singers have been engaged for the festivities and that Siegfried Arnoldson,one of them, will sirg ten times and receive $1600 for each rformance.” 0 doubt much alarm will be created in Eu-ope by the publication of this item, pa ularly after the information gets bact again'to Russia on the return wave, where consternation may ensue. It does not make so much difference to us here, because we are battling with a great finan- cial problem as it 1s. ut it must not be forgotten that the appropriation for the Moscow coronation {festivities was long since fixed, the sum of 13,000,000 rubles being put aside for the fetes, and now this Arnoldson engagement of ten perform- ances at $1600 each, which means $16,000, or 32,000 rubles, will upset things most damnably at the Kremlin. It may event- ually lead to the final dismissal of Pobo- donistieff, for it is he who has overlooked this great outlay in the original esimates and it is he who will be blamed by mil- lions of moujiks and billions of the cream of Tartary, who, in consequence, will now be deprived of their vodki. S And what a storm of indignation will . arise when old man Pob and General Jgna- tieff and thé old duck, Viadimir, and others learn that this same singer sang wisely, but not too well, in this country for Maurice Grau at the Metropolitan Opera-house for about two hundred cold plunks, or 400 rubles a night, and a mighty price it was—considering. Shades of Ru- binstein’s Ivan the Terrible! How you will splutter when you ascertain the price of Arnoldson in Moscow and the price she got on Thirty-ninth street—and then was not engaged for the next season either. It is not reported who the other forty- eight singers are who have been giving vent to their acquired feelings before the Czar and his court at Moscow during those twenty days of anti-nihilistic fun and jewbilation, but if each one has a press agent who can get the newspaper manager at Moscow to do as Fischoff, who is Arnold- son’s husband and agent, bus succeeded in doing in this case, the total sum at- tached to their names would 48x1600, which is 76,800 ten times for the ten per- formances, and for all the forty-mmne, in- cluding Arnoldson, the sum of $748,000, or in rubles 1,568,000. No wonder we have been exporting gold to Russia. It is for Fischoff and his wife and the other forty- eight great singers, and if we had had no gold, if silver were now current at 16 to 1, which would of course signify that the gold had ali been drawn out of the coun- try, Russia could not have secured any without & premium and Fischoff would have bankrupted that nation, for all it needed on top of these salaries was the premium. - Who is the genius t? be_credlke;i 'tll‘ih getting up that corner in singers for the Moscow ol;)aralic racket? Was it Fischoff himself? ~ When he married Arnoidson no one considered him a genius; but the marrying of singers oftentimes has a re- markable effect upon otherwise ordinary men.—Musical Courier.

[From the St. Louis Republic.] Of all the structures in Lafayette Park this one, the weakest, alone remains. This iron pole still stands. ‘Whist beginners and the moderate play- ers, as some writer designates a large class of whisters, often complain that they have no opportunity of practicing and playing with the players of recognized merit. Some never make an audible remon- strance, but unguestionably think they are not receiving treatment that is quite fair, Others voice their grievance, and the protest often reaches the ears of the managing committee of the club. In many places schemes of rotation play have been tried, by which each player will play with all other members, or the partners have been drawn by lot, or progressive teams of eight have been started, with the winners of each match moving np into a better prade, but all such plans which aim to compel the good players to practice with beginners usually result in 1ailure, the goog players remaining away or re- fusing to enter the contest. The beginners have a certain amount of justice in their complaint; perhaps they could make good scores if given an oppor- tunity to play with the assistanceof a strong partner. The ‘graduate” must not, bowever, be censured too severely. It is the same in all walks of life. At dancing- school the tinished waltzers donot care to cread a measure with beginners who con- tinually stumble over their toes; business men do not choose an inexperienced and incompetent partner in a business venture, but select brainy and gifted men who can aid and not retard. The young whist-player is like the young lawyer. He must show his ability before be is recognized. He must make will be sought after as a vartner. To do this requires study, work and practic-. ‘Whist being purely a mental recreation, every one cannot play with equal ease. Nevertheless whist-players are made,‘not born, and all can hope to become good players. BSome will need to do more work than others to acquire the desired proficiency, just as some minds take natu- rally to mathematics and <ome do not. With the former the addition of a long column of figures is accomplished wit! rapidity and ease, while the latter must take much time and pains to perform the addition correctly, but they will find the sum just as surely, and with practice they will become skillful. If you wish to acquire a foreign language it will require study and application. You cannot hope to wake up some mornin, and be able to speak and understan French, having acquired the language in your dreams. That skillful writer, T. E. Otis, in speak- ing of becoming proficient at wfxm‘ says: “To become a proficient whist-player there is no better practice than to play over a hand, then analyze it, noting the fine plays and the errors. Do this after the plafiof the hand, never during the play. rom the moment the first card touches the table until the last trick is turned, never discuss the play. Ifa series of hands is played and a record kept of each card as it is played, and these an- alyzed in the most thorough manner, with all the cards spread on the table, the bad plays may be noted and particu- larly “impressed ug:n the mind and their bad effects so marked that they will not be easily forgotten. It is only by cominnous,dpallem. study of the many conditions and combinations of cards that one is able to acquire an easy manner and get accustomed to playing correctly without making a great effort. Memory is not so much a factor in whist as is the natural or acquired habit of care- ful observation. If you observe carefully and thoughtiully you will recollect. Asa test of your usual habits lay down this paper and see how much you can recollect of the thoughts and wording of the article quoted above from Mr. Otis. If you can- not recall much of it read it over again, considering the ideas and meaning care- fully, and then try again. This is not memorizing, but simply observing and noting. Some one has said that if on coming out of a room, in which you had been only 8 few minutes, you were asked how many chairs there were in the room, you prob- ably could not answer. This would not be & fault of the memory. Itwould simply be a lack of observation. If you had ob- served that there were seven chairs the mind would have no dimnuléy in remem- bering the fact. So with cards played at the whist table. If you will note and ob- serve them the mind will remember them, Draw inferences when the cards fall so that when it comes your turn to play you will know what Lo do, because the remain- ing cards are placed. A sad habit is to be inattentive uuflng the 1all of the cards and late in the hand try to go overthe play to locate the unplayed cards. Do not play a listless game, Give each hand your undivided attention or better not play it at all. ‘When you study over illustrated hands lay all the cards before you on the table; imagine yourself each one of the plarers 1 turn; before you play a card stcp and think what you would do if it was your turn to play in an actual game and note wherein your play would be different from that in the illustration. Practice and play of this kind will soon make whist easy and make the beginner a desirable and sought-after partner. WHISTLETS. “Cavendish” and Whitfield will saul for England on Jn‘l; 4, Miss Wheelock is reported to have said that the most doll{vhuul ame she had in Brooklyn was with Whitfield as a partner. he June number of ‘“‘Whist” bLasar- rived. 1t is more than usually full of good things, including problems and interest- ing_illustrated hands, and a contribution by Pole on “The History of Modern Whist Literature.” We have received a copy of “Whist Openings: A BSystematic Treatment of the Short-Suit Game,” by E.C. Howell. bimself fesred as an. opponent; then he | The pressof the country treat the new book with considerable kindness, actuated, we believe, by the personal feelings of the whist-writers for Mr. Howell. Itappears wofully weak and vague in spots. In the first-hand used to illustrate the advanta-e of the short-suit play a gain of two tricks is claimed for the short-suit opening. An examination of the hang, however, shows that the gain is not made altogether by the opening, but by the good play in the trump suitin the middle of the hand. Does short-suitism need to be uoholstered by erroneous statements? The American leads and long-suit play never needed any such supports. Milton Work speaks as follows of the book: It outlines a complete system of leads (mainly of the short-suit variety), which when used at once removes from short suitism the objection of being non- informatory. The plan suggested is to divide all leads into five classes, viz.: Long-smt game when youlead a 2, 3, 4 or 5. Ruffing game when you lead a 6, 7 or 8. Supporting-card game when you lead a | 9, 10, jack or queen. High-card game when you lead an ace or king. Trump game when you lead a trump. 5 The following are some of the writer’s main ideas on the subject: “Pluy the long suit game if you havea good plain suit, fair strength in trumps and at least one reasonably probable card of re-entry in another suit. “You should not indicate the long suit game by your original lead unless you are perfectly willing that partner should im- mediately lead trumps from strong or weak ones. “With an established suit (either in your own .or your }mrtner's hand) four trumps and a card of re-entry in another suit lead trumps.” He gives the meaning of leads in the fol- lowing summary : Ace followed by king indicates the hlfh card game, generally tive or more in suit with little or no strength outside of the suit led, followed by small card indi- cates the ruffing game with probably no more in the suit led. | King followed by ace indicates the high-card game, but qrealer accompany- ing strength than ace followed by king— unaccompanied by ace indicates the high- card game with probably queen and jack and others of the suit remaining. Queen indicates the supporting-card game and not more than two in the suit. | ~ Jack, followed by queen, indicates the high-card game, tiie suit led being queen, jack, ten and others, followed b{l ace or ing or a surall card, indicates the sup- porting-card game, and generally not more tuan three in suit. Ten or nine indicates the supporting card game; followed by jack or ten, re- spectively, indicates a suit of four or more; does not deny higher caids in suit. Eight, seven or six indicates the ruffing game, with generally not more than two in snit; generallyalenies any higher card in the suit. Five, four, three, two, indicates the long-suit game, with probably a good suit and certainly trump strength; commands partner, if he gets in early, to lead trump. ‘T'his is all thoroughly, ably and care- fully explained 1n a style that issure to in- terest any whist-player. One objection to the system (which we believe to Le the greatest trick loser we have ever been called upon to consider)is that while it may fit a few hands, in many cases it will force a disadvantageous lead. As an ex- ample, we give a few of the leads it neces- sitates, all of which Mr, Howell advocates. Hearts are trump in all three hands, and in no case is the turn-up an important factor. The card M:. Howell wounld lead is indicated by an asterisk. Hearts. Clubs. Diamonds. 5 es.

We think no further examination or comment is necessary; any system which requires such’ a sacrifice as any one of the above leads in one hand out of every six cannot be worthy of adoption. In spite of our earnest disapproval of the system, however, we consider ““Whist Openings” interesting reading for the student and experienced player. We believe an examination of Mr. How- ell’s book will go far to bring back to the long-suit fold those wno may have moderate short-suit leanings, and will strengthen the views of the vast majority r{:& have never swerved from the true aith, One year ago Mr. Howell went to Min- neapolis with a “system’ which was ex- pected to electrify the whist world, but which its advocates abandoned as worth- less within & week. We do not look for a more extensive future for the system he now supports. The solution of our problem No. 6 is as follows: ' (The winning card is underscored.) TRICK.

If East refuses to take king of diamonds, South discards his heart, and the remaining three tricks for North and South are obvious. If SBouth trumps ace of diamonds, West makes poth clubs and queen of hearts, If South discards heart, West will win two tricks with his remaining cards; South must therefore discard his clubs. Trick 5. West has the option of dis- carding a club, or a beart, or of trumping. I bave shown the play following discard of a club. If he discards the heart, South at trick 7 leads ten hearts, If West trumps, North overtrumps, otherwise passes. In case West trumps at trick 5, North overzmm{m, and the last three tricks are made by North and South on a cross ruff. The ventilation of most whist club- rooms is atrocious. Windows make bad ventilators, as they make draughts on those sitting near if they are open, If they are closed the room soon becomes close and stuffy. Electric exhaust fans are suitable for most rooms. Pembridge’s ideal whistroom had neither doors nor windows, as they may admit draughts. He said windows es- pecially were objectionable, as some scoundrel might raise the sash and an- other scoundrel might lower it again. Again, windows instead of being placed in the ceiling or the floor—where you would naturally expect to find them— were slways at the side of the room, and no player could see a card with the win- dows in such & position. The following interesting hand is by W. H. Whittield: -8 %Ka,‘ Ace, Q Ky. Kg,7,6,3. Three spades trumps. East to lea (Tme winniog card is underscored). TRICK. 1 EAST. lsovm.i WEST. | NORTH. Trick 1—Y does for trumps, althoug » he is strong, since it seems probable that he mav be able to force his partner by leading losing dia- not commence a cail monds. When s plaver's long suit can- not possibly be established a trump lead is generally inadvisable., rick 2—By leading the queen A shows that he has the knave and one other diamond exactly. B has called for trumps. Z playing the ten has no more diamonds. rick 5—Y cannot lose anything by de- ceiving his partner as to the posfuon of the trumps, and a false card can do no harm. 1t is advisable not to let B know that Y has the major tenace, which he mustknow if Y wins with the knave. Trick 7—1t is advisable to lead a second round of hearts before returning the club, for fear A may get in and eive his partner a discard on a winning diamond. Trick 10—The position of_the remaining cards is now quite clear to Y. B can have nothing but trumps, and A has kaave of diamonds. If Y leaves the trick to his partner the latter must lead a suit which Acan trump. E will of course play his best trump. A will bave to playa card of his major tenace or else leave the lead with A, and have his tenace led through; in either case, he only makes one more trick. But by trumping this trick and leading a diamond, ¥ can place the lead in B's hand, who, having nothin, but tramps, must win the diamond tric! and then lead up toY's tenace. At trick 1, it is doubtful whether D should commence a call for trumps, Most pl-{en would probably do so. At trick 4, Z does not deem it advisable to show precise number by leading his fourth best, as there has been an adverse call for tramps. At trick 10 B's best play is doubtful, If he leads a trump Y, aiter winning with the knave, should lead ace, and next the Loflng trump, to put the lead into B's and. _ Zhe newly elected officers of the Amer- ican Whist Leagne are as follows: Presi- dent, Walter H.
