JULIAN'S PICO OUT OF TROUBLE Backers of the Julian Petroleum Corp. will be pleased to know that the company's Pico well at Coupton is out of trouble and will be ready to go ahead in a few days. Two strings of bad casing have been remedied and drilling will proceed at 4068 feet. The showings today have not been anything more than ordinary. The General Petroleum Gardena Land Company No. 1 now nearing the 4000 mark will be the field's second producer. Whether or not Long Beach is to have a new lease on life and open up new territory seems to depend upon the success of the United Oil Co.'s test well on the Hixby property. At 4785 a string of 6% casing was set and the showings at that point were very encouraging. This well at 4400 feet made some oil but not in commercial quantity. Should the Bixby test well make good Long Beach will stage a revival of development in the northwest. Production on the Hill was boosted this week by the Keck Syndicate the Shell Company of California and the Superior Oil Company, Keck Syndicate 5-3 at 4707 is a 1200 barrel well. The Shell Co. finished a deep well on the Cresson property, No. 4 at 4087 and got a 1000 barrel producer. The Superior Oil Company completed Miller No. 2 a well included in the old Sandburg Petroleum Co., holdings at 43 62 and got a 1000 barrel producer.

Later in the day officers from Seattle identified her from photographs. 10,000 CHINESE JOBHOLDERS CUT PEKING, Nov. 30.—Beginning a radical retrenchment policy designed to bring the Chinese government within its income and place it on a business basis, 10,000 government sinecure holders were dismissed today. This action spread terror throughout the capital where thousands are dependent upon their semi-political employment. Head of the government railways started a conference with a view to rehabilitation of the disturbed traffic system. Hopes for success are not high but the impression prevails the central government will do its utmost in this direction. producers at Logn Beach seem to run around 1000 barrels. "MADE-TO-ORDER SETS HURT TRADING" If this is radio, give me first, says A. Devillard, is the Anaheimers will feel who chassis made-to-order radio sets The proprietor of the Anaheim nation Depot declares that this is a good deal of this going and that it is hurting the trade generally. Radio sets can't be made easily by the individual chanic, Devillard asserts. First all they can't be manufactured cheaply, because the large manufacturer has the advantage of capital and can purchase his miniatures in quantity. They can't as well-made, because successe manufacture requires long existence. The owner of such a set cannot turn it in and get a fair alliance upon it in exchange for new standard set, because this is no market for made-to-order goods. Finally the owner, equally with the maker, makes himself liable heavy civil damages for the fringement of patents on circuit all of which, if they are any thing, are simply protected. The purchaser is left with much junk, and hasn't been able to get satisfactory entertainment.

World's Pianist A Flock of Bats W. E. ALLEN California Biological Feature Service. Night before last (November 30) about sundown, for the first time in my life, I saw a flock of bats. In fact, I saw two flocks of bats. I do not remember that I ever before saw more than five or six of these little animals at one time. In this case, I was standing near a lower window of our library building at the La Jolla Dilogical station when it seemed as though something had been flung out from the roof to scatter in the air, like a small basket of leaves or scraps of dark paper. Altho rather compact when first seen, the flock immediately began to scatter, individuals darting in zig-zag flight in every direction. I had first thought it to be a flock of little birds but soon saw it to be bats (possibly the little California Brown Bat). I tried to count them. Imagine trying to count a little basketful of falling leaves. I thot I counted 50. I also estimated 50. At any rate 50 is my guess. The flock scattered so quickly that I went outside to get a better view, and was just in time to see a smaller flock suddenly flung into view in the same manner as the first, but considerably nearer the roof when seen. I guessed this flock at 30. It quickly scattered and disappeared like the first. We have had more or less trouble with bats roosting in the library ventilators but as those had been screened for some months I could only guess as to where the two flocks had been roosting. The fact that they were so compact at first and that they then scattered so quickly indicated, they must have been hiding somewhere about the building. I thought it possible that they might have crept under the tiles on the library roof but it seemed strange that in that case such a compact flock should LITTLE LOSS IN TWO FIRES HERE Fire yesterday about 11 a.m. in the Anaheim Electric Shop on West Center-st did damage estimated between $500 and $1,000. The blaze is said to have originated while the windows were being decorated with holiday trimnails. The plate glass windows broke from the heat. The windows will be replaced, and the store will be open for business just as usual. The damage was covered by insurance. The residence of J. B. Root, 508 No. Philadelphia-st, caught fire at 1:45 a.m. today. Mr. Root had the fire practically under control by the time firemen arrived. The fire originated from a hot water heater which was left burning when the family went to bed. Damage amounted to $300 or $400. The loss was covered by insurance. PRIEST RESCUE SHANGHAI, Nov. 30. Frederick, French Catholic was rescued from the band three weeks ago captured and held him for ransom. The rescue was effected twentieth regiment of the ese regular army near Chin Shantung province. In the fighting which pio the rescue the commande ficer of the twentieth rea was seriously wounded. casualties were not report We have had more or less trouble with bats roosting in the library ventilators but as those had been screened for some months I could only guess as to where the two flocks had been roosting. The fact that they were so compact at first and that they then scattered so quickly indicated, they must have been hiding somewhere about the building. I thought it possible that they might have crept under the tiles on the library roof but it seemed strange that in that case such a compact flock should be formed. Last evening I watched the roof for a while but had to leave before seeing any evidence of the little animals. Mr. Ross watched, however, and later reported that the flocks emerged shortly after I had gone. At that time there was a first flock of about 30, followed soon after by one of 15 and a little later by a few flocks of six or eight. All came from beneath the tiling. Mr. Ross said that just before the flight began there was a great chattering and squeaking, after which the larger flock came out abruptly, assuming at first the compact form noticed by me the day before. I had long known in a general way that bats were interesting animals and I had read about enormous flocks of them having been found in caves, but I had not known of such large numbers roosting about occupied buildings. In looking up the literature I find that a few somewhat similar cases of roosting flocks in buildings have been recorded. I also found two good sized books and a number of articles which indicated that a great deal of study has been given to bats and that a great deal has been learned about them. It is evident, however, that all writers believe that there is yet much to be learned about these interesting creatures. It is very puzzling to attempt to explain how 30 or 50 or more of them manage to creep out from under the roof tiles at a particular instant and to appear in such a compact flock. Furthermore, why should there be a compact flock formed for a few seconds when it is to be so completely scattered immediately afterward? It looks as though bats must have some kind of wireless equipment of their own. Buy In Anaheim CONVICTS RACE SAN QUENTIN, Nov. 30.
