JERGINS FINISHES
NO. 4 1200 BARRELS
A. T. Jergins, president of the A.T. Jergins Trigal company led the field this week for new production. On the city's reservoir hill site he completed a 1200 barrel well at No. 4. The new producer was finished in the upper zone at 3350 feet. On the White property on the south slope of the Hill Jergins redrilled and put No. 4 on production a 2000 barrel well at a depth of 4472 feet. This well completed the Mamitos zone will probably make one of the long lifed producers of the south side.
On the Milla property, E. J. Miley completed his first big well in the Long Beach field. The well at 4325 feet did credit to E. J. by coming in at 3250 barrels. Miley's No. 3 at 4000 feet has been held up with a fishing job for several weeks. No. 3 is scheduled to open up the extreme northwest section of the field and its progress is being watched with more than usual interest.
With an estimated production of 3500 barrels Fred B. Foster's No. 40 completed at 4400 feet went on production. This marks the first real producer for the Foster organization on Signal Hill. The Foster Company has gone in heavy at Long Beach and in the coming six months will be looked upon to make some records for development. The Fosters were fortunate in securing 'Pat' Miley former head of the Associated Oil Company's Richfield-Olinda division for field superintendent. Miley has a long record for successful development and the Foster Company should make a great showing with Miley directing.
The General Petroleum succeeded in making a nice well out of the deep Bixby test hole in spite of the hardships and drilling difficulties the well gave for the past six months. Completing at 4421 Bixby No. 1 went on production an 800 barrel well. This well moves the proven area of the southeast section of the field out to a new mark.

INDIAN PRINCESS STARTS NEW VOGUE
LONDON, March 29.—As a result of the movement now in to remove to the United States the ashes of Pocohontas, the Indian Princess who was the first Anglo-American bride, newspapers and magazines here are overflowing with Pocohontas stories. A tremendous Pocohontas vogue is on in England.
For over 30 years the remains of Pocohontas have lain in a crypt under the chancel of St. George's church, Grevesend, just outside London. There she was burned, a bride of two years, when she died of a broken heart because she could not marry her first love, Capt. John Smith, whose head she had saved when he was about to be executed by the orders of the Indian chief, Powhatan, her father.

DAVID WITH JUDGE
(L. N. S. Staff Correspondent)
GRAND RAPIDS, Mien., Mar. 29.
Pate of the House of David rests today with Federal Judge John F. Sater. His decision in John W. Hansel's $80,000 suit, it is believed will pave the way for a federal investigation of the Israeli colony at Benton Harbor or silence of the "rebels" who have threatened the reign of "King" Benjamin for many years.
Almost unbelievable stories have been told. Women and girls have bared their lives, family ranks have been split, lives have been threatened, charges of bribery and perjury have been hurled from all sides.
"Queen" Mary dodged facing her husband's accusers from the witness stand, and "King" Benjamin has been missing for some time.

JURY SEES GIRL'S DAINTY GARMENTS
(By International News Service)
RAN DIEGO, Mar. 29.—A dainty vanity box, the mirror shattered; a small handbag with card reading; "I am Fritzie Mann", a peacock blue silk kimono; a brown, finely beaded frock; a rumpled brown lace hose and dainty, pink silk underwear.
These material articles were time after time held before the jury today as "exhibits" in the case of the people against Dr. Louis L. Jacobs, charged with the murder of the beautiful young dancer. The bits of feminine attire were found along the boulevard at varying distances from the place where Fritzie's body was found, and the prosecution seemed anxious to make it appear that they had been thrown from a moving automobile, as tho the driver was leaving hastily in flight.
The metal vanity case, testimony showed, had struck the beach with sufficient force to leave-a dent in the sand.
The ringlets and rows of beads on the dress were broken in several places, and there was a rent under one sleeve. The dainty underwear was streaked in spots as if from action of the sea water or exposure to sunlight.
The prosecution appeared keenly destrous of establishing that the dancer was murdered by the position of the body when found, while the defense was seeking to strengthen its suicide or accidental death claims.
The prosecution attempted to make much of the bruises on Fritzie's temple and body, and the fleek of blood in one eye. This was offset by testimony elicited by the defense on cross examination that a slight froth was observed on her lips—a strong indication of drowning.
Defense counsel scored a signal victory when they prevented important testimony from Deputy Sheriff John Bludworth.
Bludworth had sworn the dead dancer's arms and hands were carefully folded across the breast. He swore also that in 40 years as a law officer he had participated in the investigation of a score of more drownings.

DAUGHERTY'S TALK
(By International News Service)
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Mar. 29—President Harding's excitation party has been elivened by an accrimonious dispute between political advisers over the now famous Daugherty announcement of the Harding candidacy in 1924.
The end of the row did not appear in sight today.
The dispute within the republican family circle is not over the accuracy of the Attorney General's announcement for all factions are agreed that the President will be a candidate. It concerns solely strategy of making such an announcement a year before the primaries.
Friends of the Attorney General took the position that the announcement affords a much needed clarification of the political atmosphere. They contend too, that no harm can result from publicity stating something that all of them recognize privately. Those unfriendly to the Attorney General characterize the announcement as a gross political blunder.
From now on, they contend the President is a candidate and his every executive act will be tarred with that brush; that when the president makes his swing around the west this summer, he will appear as a candidate seeking re-election rather than a President of the United States making a perfectly proper observation of the country.

Others expected to throw light on the case are John Kearsley Mitchell, millionaire lover of Dorothy and the last person known to have been with her! Albert Gulmares, Dorothy's sweetheart, and the elevator man and maid at the girl's apartment.
Mrs. Keenan refused to divulge the nature of the letters Mitchell wrote her daughter. She was then at her home.
"Mr. Mitchell has children and so have I," said Mrs. Keenan. "He must have loved my daughter. I will not let anybody but the authorities see the letters."
