a new world altitudo record. Ho said
that his chief sensation was that of
.lust plain cold.
That he had a right to bo cold can
bo judged from tho fact that at J0,
500 feet tho record the mercury
stood at JS degrees below zero, Fah
renheit. "1 removed my goggles when I
was six miles up because a thick
coating of frost had rendered them
useless," said Lang. ".My left eye
was frozen shut immediately. It was
70 degrees below freezing up there at
altitude.
"For tho first 6000 feet the inii

Articles for the incorporation of
the Klamath oil company were signed
yesterday afternoon, the Incorpora
tors being Ed Uloomingcamp, George
Bloomlngcamp, Nlel Compbell, David
Edler, and J ,V Siemens. That this
is to be a bona fide attempt to ascer
tain whether the great Klamath Bas
in Is underlaid with dll or gas or both
i clearly indicated by the men who
have signed the articles and who
have declared themselves as ready
to prosecute the work to a point
where all doubt in the matter will
be removed. In speaking of the pro
position. Captain Sicilians said;
"We have undertaken this work
simply for tho purpose of settling
for all time the much discussed prob
lem as to whether there is oil or gas
In this section. VeJiave tBe machin
ery on hand to do the work, and we,
are prepared to sink a drill to sea
level, if such a depth is necessary to
ascertain what we are after. If we
strike oil or gas it will make the fu
ture of Klamath Falls so bright that
everyone will realize his dream of
seeing a great clt) here. Tho men
who have associated themselves to
gether in this enterprise have the de
velopment of this sectldn of Oregon
closer to their hearts thansany persoiiT
al or selfish aggrandizement and In
this undertaking we know we have
the good wishes of the county. We
have not deiidcd when nor whero
work will be undertaken. That will
depend entire!) upon the advice of
the expert we are bringing In here
to direct us in our operations, but
we will get the drill pounding away
at as earl) a date as it is possible to
do so "
Seveial attempts have been made
in Hie past to solve this question of
oil Some of them have been fail
ures because the machines used were '
too small to, sink the hoje deep
enough, other because of financial
difficulties This is backed by men
with sufficient means to carr) the
project to a successful conclusion In
dependent of any outside assistance.
