1000 VIOLATORS OF LAW FACE JUSTICE More than a thousand trembling violators of the traffic laws faced their nemesis, in the form of Justice John B. Cox, of Santa Ana, across the oaken desk during the last year. It was shown in statistics revealed at the famous bar of traffic justice today. Bebe Daniels was a mere incident, though a notable one, in the crush of business handled by the doughty justice over the twelve-month period. Miss Daniels, therefore, may consider herself unusually favored by being granted ten days in a jail that war so much in demand not only by Judge Cox's sentenced motorists, but by other recipients of his punishment. For traffic cases were not by any means the only ones before the magistrate. He also handled 567 criminal cases of other nature, besides the various civil suits that stocked his calendar. A total of $17,214 in fines and fees by Justice Cox collected during the year from Dec. 1, 1920, tells an eloquent story of the court's work and also in the territory coming under its jurisdiction. An examination of the figures proves most interesting. The month of June was the busy one for Judge Cox. Not only did he marry the most couples during the month, but he also collected the most fines from criminal actions, sixteen in number. Fees from civil suits amounted to $428 during the year. POPULATIONGRO WING The census taken this year gave continental France a population of 36,084,206 as compared with 38,-468,753 ten years ago. News of Oil Fields Long Beach Drilling stopped on the California Mexican Petroleum Syndicate at 2100 and preparations are now underway to bring the well in. The S-in, was set at 2821 and from this point to 3100 feet the well has shown oil continuously. The actual coming in of this well will be delayed four or five days awaiting the arrival of screen pipe. Judging from the way this well has been showing up there is every reason to believe it will make a 700-barrel well. The Cal-Mex has staked a location for well No. 2. The second well will be drilled on the Lekis property west of the Shell's Horsch No. 1. The General Petroleum drilling on the Bixby property is now down 3700 feet. The formation is hard sand, no showings as yet. E. J. Miley contrary to last week's report, has not drilled the cement out at Kemino No. 1. Pipe was set at 3815 and the well is to stand for a while yet. M. M. Keck has not done anything at the E. L. B. O. well and will probably not resume drilling for some little time. Both wells are in unproven territory and will await developments. The Petroleum Midway has closed a deal for the North property, a strip of ground running along the south line of the San Martenas Booth lease. The coming in of the Booth well makes the North lease look like one of the cbchoice properties in the field. At 2680 the Petroleum Midway got a showing of oil in the Ellis well and stopped drilling to set pipe. Brown No. 1 is a rig, and McDavid No. 1 is rigging up. Ramsey, Municipal No. 1 started off with a spurt flow of about a 1000 barrels. Judging from the way the well acted it will duplicate the Shell Company's discovery well and make a 400 barrel pumper. Efforts will be made to make pressure does not client to maintain keep a continuous testing out close. San Martenas, ago was the San Beach field flow barrels. Today they ducing a barrel, around the S-in has gone bad at it being that it will be sweded or cemented. Regard the big well we Martenas Oil Corporation of the fact there.

LOUIS, Dec. 1, — "Gather around closely gents, and let Prosecuting Attorney Mueller of St Louis give you a definition of gambling. He is replying to a query from Sheriff Willmann as to 'What is gambling?' "Well, sheriff," says Mueller, "it's about like this: If a man plays a game of chance and gets back more or less then he puts up, he's gambling. If he gets back just what she put up, that's not gambling." Now, let the defense contend that their clients "broke even." made to make the well flow. The gas pressure does not seem to be sufficient to maintain the oil column and keep a continuous flow. The oil is testing out close to 22 gravity. San Martenas, Booth No. 1 a week ago was the sensation of the Long Beach field flowing steadily at 1500 barrels. Today the big well is not producing a barrel. Water broke in around the 8-in. at 3561. The pipe has gone bad at 3541, the assumption being that it has collapsed. The pipe will be swedged out and the well re-cemented. Regardless of the fact that the big well went to water the San Martenas Oil Company has the consolation of the fact that the oil is there. Drilling at 2850 feet the Standard Oil Co.'s Alamitos No. 2 is now showing anything that looks like oil yet. Lonita No. 1 shows a 1000 feet Syllvester No. 1 at 2500 is drilling nicely. L.B.T. & Savings No. 1 shows 2200 feet drilled. The rig for the deep test Blxby well is down and in a few days all marks of the 5540 test well will be gone. Barring the mishap of having the 8-in pipe part the Shell Co.'s Alamitos No. 3 would have been on production this week. This well has been showing exceptionally strong and something startling is expected when it comes in; 3496 feet is the bottom and the formation is oil sand. Alamitos No. 2 set 8-in at 3025. Uo. 4 Alamitos is rigging up. Babb-Tucker No. 1 set 8-in at 2850. Goddard No. 1 at 2600 struck a light showing of oil. Jones No. 1 set 10-in at 2956. Hutton No. 1 is drilling at 1700 in hard sand. Martin No. 1 is rebuilding the rig. Nesa No. 1 continues drilling. BUENA PARK, Dec. 2.—(Spl.) Mr. and Mrs. C.J.Allen entertained with a chicken dinner on Sunday.

"THE STRAW" GIVES PUBLIC COLD FACTS NEW YORK — Eugene O'Neill has scored again—this time with "The Straw". Not content with one success flourishing on an arid Broadway he has dramatized a thing as ghantly tuberculosis, but the action in a sanatorium, and laid the awful horror bare in a straight, pure,and direct way. We look for grim reality from this uncompromising writer but never has he deflected so little from a purpose to exploit the drama of the inevidtable.The play is enriched by the characters out of whose qualities the quality of the story.
