VALLEY CHAMBERS TO I i Death Sentences INDIANS IN GRADUATIN EXERCISES Class of Thirty-one End Work at Sherman Institute at Riverside KXCUSIVT, DISPATCH) RIVERSIDE, May 25. Commencement week opened last night for thirty-one Indians who will be graduated Wednesday evening after completing the schooling at Mierman inaian institute nere. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered last night by Dr. John Gardner of the First Congregational Church of Riverside. Today Is inspection day at the institute which is thrown open to the public from 10 clock on.

Ex hlbits of the handiwork of Butcher was informed today that two Standard oil wells In the im mediate vicinity of the Lewis wells, have come in as good producers and he asserted that he will hesitate before accepting the proposal of the trustee. "Lewis offered to abandon the wells and to accept the casing and all equipment in payment for cleaning up the grounds," Butcher said today. "Rutherford recommended that this be done. I hesitated, however, on reading the geologist's report on the condition of the wells and now I see by the Los Angeles Times that two wells have been brought in close to the Lewis venture. If I had acted on the Rutherford proposal, Lewis icould have turned around, signed another lease on the property and have operated the wells out of jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court and his creditors would have lost all equity In the well.

Now it looks as if they may get 100 cents on the dollar if we hold the wells and continue to operate them." Smugglers of Humans First to Face Judge EXCIA'SIVE DISPATCH SAN DIEGO, May 25. Edward J.
