MIDLAND VILLAGE What We SeaO
1Here.-Our representative took a
flying trip to Midland Monday and
while there noted down a brief de-
scfiption CT the village.
Upon alighting from the cars
tho first thing to be seen on the
west is d handsome two-story frame
structure which we were told was the
Wage Workers Hall. Tt is .lS by 20
feet and was completed about year
ago. The lower room, used for pub
lie meetings, balls, &C., is lighted with
eight large windows and has a front
and back entrance. The second sto-
ry is furnished completely, and is
used by the Wage Workers and other
organizations to meet in. The build
ms is surmounted by large staff up
on which is a fine brass globe. The
hall lies on the east side of Georges
Creek and is in full view Of both the
C.& P. and G. @. s. G. railroads.
Midland is small place but enough
level land lies around it to make it
An attractive spot. The population
ia about 200. One of the finest
houses in the region is found here,
notable that of Msssrs. Salem and
David Kooptz which is Immediately
adjoining the county road and the
Georges Creek railroad.
About five hundred yards from the
Messrs. Koontz's residence is the
dwelling of the physician, DIR. A. G.
Smith. Nearby is tasteful little
school house where the children have
been taught very successfully by a
young man from Homecoming.
A walk through the little village
led us past loag row of houses own
ed by the coal company whose mine
is located in the vicinity. Many i'm.
provements have been made in the
past few months and more will follow,
and if the mines resume work shortly
it is safe to say that in the near fu-
ture Midland will blossom forth as
the rose"

O oEAN M1NE-Stme Important

o oEAN MINE-Stme Important
Improvsments.-- A JOURNAL repre-.
sentative visited Ocean this week and
found that vast number of improve
ments had been made and Others
were in progress.
The first thing noticed is the old en-
gine-houae which has been placed in
most excellent condition, and, nearby,
a substantial and-house, IL by l9
feet, has been erected. Within few
feet of the latter building is a large
structure, 20 by so feet, divided into
two compartments, one of which is
used for blacksmithing purposes and
the other as a carpenter shop.
The most imposing building, how
ever, is the new engine-house, 20 by A
feet the new boiler-house adjoining,
which is in course of erection, being
20 by SO feet.
The engine.house contains the old
engine formerly used at Eckhart but
which has been thoroughly reftted
and overhauled. 1t is 90-horse pow
er. In this building is also a large
drum, so feet in circumference, around
which the wire rope will wind. In
fact all the necessary machinery for
hauling the loaded cars out of the mine
is i'll this room.
In the boiler.house are three large
boilers, while Immediately adjoining
this building is small annex in which
is large tank, about 81 feet in cir
conference and s feet high, which
will supply the engine with water.
Each Of these buildings are solidly
built and make an imposing appear
ance on their elevated position as
seen from tho O. & P. railroad, The
contractor is Mr.. Il. O. Burgemeister,
of this place, who may well feel proud
of his work.
The greatest improvement made I'M
der the supervision of the above gen.
tleman is seen around the mouth of
the new mine. This opening was
made by mine boss John T. Ford,
some months ago, and on each side
substantial stone wall is built.
Around the mouth boards are placed
securely 60 as to leave a space 9 feet
high by IA wide, for the entrance and
exit of the cars.
Upon making a minute examina-
ticn of the interior of the new slope
we foundit to be we'll tlmbered and
almost straight to the face or end of
the slope. About 200 feet in we were
stopped by water which we noticed
on looking down the heading was up
to the roof to depth of about 10
feet. Retracing our STEPS we were
told by our guides, Messrs. James
Murphy and Ben Robinson, that the
new slope had an immense amount of
very fine coal in it and would pan
out well.
The Consolidation coal company
who own and control this property
have cause to congratulate themselves
on the excellent work done by the
contractor on all the improvements
recently made in and around Ocean
