BUSEY WELL WAS
"PINCHED" TUESDAY
NEW VALVE AND EXPERT WORK-
MAN REACH EL DORADO
> FROM HOUSTON, TEX.
El Dorado, Jan. 24.—T. S. Neville,
veteran oil expert, arrived ."tonight
from Houston, Tex., with a new gate
valve for the Busey well and a corps
of expert well drillers, and work of
"pinching" down the well will be-
gin again at once. Mr. Neville made
the trip to Houston in an airplane to
save time, but as the material he
brought back weighs more than 6,-
000 pounds it was necessary to return
by train.
LESLIE'S DRIVER
KITTY PARSONS.
(A, 1121, by McClurt N*wapap«r BjrndloaU.)
Leslie groaned. Right In the middle
of the traffic on Tremont street she
had stalled her engine. Nobody knew
how she hated getting out and crank-
ing in such a frightfully public place—
with machines thicker than flies on ev-
ery side of her.
There was a large truck standing
beside Leslie's flivver, and the blond
young man in overalls who was driv-
ing it looked down and saw that some-
thing was the matter.
"Want any help?" lie asked her
cheerfully.
"Oh, can you crank a Ford?" she
Implored, in the most woebegone tone
imaginable.
"Nothing easier," he laughed, and
Immediately jumped down and suited
the action to the word. Leslie's spir-

in the yards here developed at Fort j
Smith today when Federal Judge j
Youmans issued an order restraining!
the Missouri Pacific from interfering j
with the Rock Island at El Dorado. |
The case was moved from chancery j
here to the federal court by the Rock
Island attorneys today.
This injunction will halt construc-|
ticm work on the switch until the case
filially is decided in federal court,
which will be next Saturday, or as
soon thereafter as the transcript can
be prepared and presented in the fed-
era) court. Attorneys for both roads
were here today in conferences try-
ing to adjust the controversy and de-
cide on the boundary.
Visitors Jam City.
Secretary Kirkpatrick of the Cham-
ber of Commerce declared that there
were more visitors to El Dorado to-
day than ever before and that there
was a greater demand for rooms than |
on any other day since the oil boom |
began. The Chamber of Com- j
merce's system whereby all vacant j
rooms are checked over and tabulated '
each day has made it possible to take
care of all the visitors, although on
some nights there was scarcely a va-
cant room in the city.
The Gulf Refining Company open-
"I'ra so grateful to you!" she cried,
and wondered If she should pay him
for his kindness. Finally she decided
In favor of it and produced a shining
quarter from the depths of her purse.
"Please take it," she begged, "it's
been worth ten times that to me."
The man in overalls drew back
Involuntarily, anil then laughingly
held out his hand.
"Thank you, miss." Then he climb-
ed back on his truck and leaned over
the edge.
"I'll always jarry It for luck if you
don't mind," he told her. "Good-by."
"What an odd fellow," mused Leslie,
as she turned down the first quiet
street to avoid another chance of stal-
ling her engine in the middle of traf-
fic. "He didn't seem a bit fresh and
what wonderful eyes he had, too."
The next week there was a big drlvt
to raise money for a charitable organ-
ization and Leslie and Betty were giv-
en the Job of soliciting funds at the
Square theater at the evening per-
formances.
"This man looks prosperous—let's
tackle him," suggested Betty, as at
good-looking young man, with a stun-
ning girl on his arm, came towards
them. Leslie gasped as her eye fell
upon him. There, all dressed up in
the most irreproachable evening
clothes In the world, stood her beau-
tiful young truck driver—musquerad-

Drilling to Boom.
Several drilling projects inside! « ^ «« they drove out Beacon

"Tommy," cried the girl on the truck
driver's arm, as he pulled a $10 bill
from his pocket, "If you give any more
you'll be absolutely bankrupt."

England always prided herself upon
her intimate relations with the Gulf
stream. It was thought that the cur-
rent left the sunny shores of distant
lands to wrap the British Isles in a
warm embrace, bringing with it not
only a warmer atmosphere, but tro-
phies In the form of shells from the
tropics to ornament the beaches of
Britain. The faith of the British in
this direction is being shaken- Weath-
er prophets who have been unable to
account for the uncertain atmospheric
conditions have been looking for a
senpegoat for some mobths, and at
last have pitched upon the Gulf stream
as the delinquent. It is reported that
ships have failed to find It In the
ocean, and lhe west wind is no longer
influenced by it. If the old and
trusty f. -lid, the Gulf stream, Is going
to join l lie strikers, then England in-
deed will feel this the unklndest cut
of all.
Irrespective of opinions and sym-
