where there is a gas spring, Chinaman
turns wheel by which the air is renewed at
that point Mr.. Miller exhibited to us a
spouting stream of gas which he lighted
and which produced blush light about
equal to couple of ordinary candles in
lighting power 1t is such gas that, if not
disposed of, produces fire damp explosions
in coal mines, by which so many lives are
lost. Gas is very often generated in coal
mines.
There is also tunnel run into the hill
from the bank of the river for about 1900 or
400 feet, to intersect from below vein of
coal of II feet in thickness of which care
full bearings have been taken; this same
vein is also worked from 400 feet above in
a tunnel, the mouth of which is near the
Co.'S store and boarding house and has been
worked about $50 feet into the mountain.
l asked Mr.. Miller how the company had
discovered this IL foot vein, and he replied:
"Merely by digging for it; we dug here
and there in several places and after few
trials happened to hit this fine large vein
only few feet below the surface; when we
reach it from below we can mine all the
coal we can get means to take away"
White miners make from $3.50 to SO per
day and in rare instances as high as $3.50.
They get 81 for 10 cubic yards ofcoal Some
of them hire a Chinaman to help them, pay
ing him 81. % per day and clearing about an
equal amount from his labor. The supply
of coal at these mines is practically mex
haustible and will yield many millions
worth of black diamonds for the worlds sup
ply, with only 35 miles of down grade rail-
road transportation.
Among the relics of this remarkable place,
1 was presented with piece of coke of I'M
known age, but certainly very ancient; for
it was found at depth of several feet and
under the roots of some tall trees. The
probability is that this coke was made
thousands of years ago at the time when the
vein of coal was cropping out and in some
way was set on fire and, burning clear be-
low the surface, the soil caved and smoth-
cred out the fire. leaving the coke. What
history would equal in interest that of the
various stages through which our planet has
passed until it arrived at its present condi-
ton! The mind is lost in the estimate of
the millions of years of past changes and
change is still the order, so gradual as to be
unperceived. The world is never finished,
but goes on forever.
Returning to Tacoma the next day, the
the gentlemanly conductor called the pro-
fessor to the rear car, where, at a turn in
the railroad, the most magnificent view of
grand old Mt Rainier, Tacoma the snow
robed mountain, the queen of of the Cas-
cade range, can be obtained from about 20
miles. A sight which alone repays the
"Trip to Puget Sound" CD.
