DIPLOMACY LED TO FORTUNE.
How a Stranded Mualclnii Got Into a
Profitable Line of lliialneas.
"Diplomacy Is n grent quality," said
a man who formerly lived lu n very
small Ohio town to tho writer recently.
"A fellow ean do nenrly overythlng by
tho proper tiso of diplomacy except to
rob a bank. I was Just reading some
thing about a volunteer organist thnt
sot rao to thinking about n neat little
bit of diplomacy thnt lifted a good man
from misfortune's ditch nnd put him In
tho way of doing something for him
self. Ho was n muslclnn with a small
traveling show which enmo along and
went to pieces In our towu. Tho other
people of tho company got out of town
by hook or crook, but this poor fellow
couldn't mnko It. Ho got acquainted
with sovpral young fellows of tho
town, however, and to one of these ho
confided that ho woul.1 mako a living
by teaching music If he could only get
a start. . . , , ,
"Tho young fellow asked him what
u i.. nmi im mild he could piny
I1U wuuiu uujr - -
nil kinds of horns In a bnnd, the banjo,
tho guitar, tho zither, vioim, ui, i
tino and organ-ln fact he could play
It was finished and the organ poured
forth another flood of harmony for the
congregation to retire on, everybody
Just stood and listened, and before the
stranded musician left the church he
knew all the good people In town and
wns made a social lion.
"It wns ensy enough nftcr that. Be
ing n mnn of good address nnd discre
tion nnd possessing gentlemnnly refine
ment nn well, he quietly went to work
nnd soon had a lot of the best pupils
In the town. Then the young fellown
went nftcr him for banjo nnd guitar
lcsnonH, and afterward they organized
a band and made him lender. Every
thing came bin way and he married
the daughter of one of the rich men of
the town, and, well, he runn tho largest
music store In the place now. All ac
complished by n bit of diplomacy."

Am Interview With i Well Known Oil
Kxpart
A well-known oil export has the fol
lowing to say about tho California oil
industry:
. Tho oil production of Cnlilornla is
now nbout 4.G00, 000 barrels annually.
This output is being increased very
materially each month by tho produot
of tho new wolls drilled to oil in the
different districts".
Tho question most frequently asked
me, especially by capitalists and thoso
interested or likoly to bo interested in
oil investments is: "Is there not
possibility of overproduction of oil in
California?"
There are two main bolts extending
through the tte, located on tho east
ern and western shores of ancient, pre
historic gem. Ono of these produces
black and essentially fuel oil, and the
other a green or gas oil.
The black or heavy oil makes an
ideal fuel, as has been proven by 30
veatH of experience in Hussia and in
thin countiy.
In using oil ns n fuol it is necessary
to exercise considerable judgment, and
to know what kind of oil os well as
whnt kind of a buiner to uso.
Tho two oils, the black nnd the
green, lie almost in two parallel belts
in California extending on the west
side of the San Joaquin valley and run
ning north and south into northern and
southern California. There is likewise
a similar condition on tho oast side ot
the San Joaquin more or less in evi
dence as is shown by tho ontoroppings
and geological formation. The east
side of the valley, however, has not yet
been prospected for oil as has the west
side, where developments have already
been, and whore by far tho largest
amount of the oil output of California
is at present obtained.
It is truo that many far-Boeing capi
talists have entorcd into tho oil busi
ness and have renped rioh financial re
turns already, others have been too
conservative and are losing opportuni
ties which are fast being taken up by
Eastern capitalists, who arerapidly ap
preciating the chance California, gives
for investments.
