Montana Coal.

With the advent of the railroad
there seems to be no limit to the de.
velepment of Montana's natural re-
sources. The question of fuel supply
for future demands is only second in
Importance to that of our mineral de-
velepment and the recent opening
up of valuable coal veins in the va
rious parts of the Territory, gives
ample assurance that in the not dis
tant future, coal will in a great meas
ure, supplant wood as the fuel for the
supply of our mills, furnaces and
manufactures. A fine specimen of
bitumenous coal was yesterday added
to George Newkirk's cabinet from a
mine now being opened up by J. B.
Thompson, of Jefferson valley, and
Alec johnson of Bozeman.
The mine is located on a
government section of land twenty
miles east of BOZeman, and directly
across the track from the coal mines
now being extensively worked by
the Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany. The vein is developed to a
depth of 40 feet and is 20 feet wide.
A tunnel is now being driven to tap
the vein at a lower depth. Messrs.
Thompson & Johnson are working
the property with great energy and
are already taking out considerable
coal for shipment. 1t is their inten-
tion to at once establish agencies for
the sale of their product at Helena
and other points along the Northern
Pacific R. R., and if satisfactory
freight rates can be obtained they will
also establish large yard- in Butte.

A Surgical Triumph.

In 1871 Thomas Colt, then twelve years
old, was taken to Bellevue Hospital, New
York, suffering from disease which had
destroyed his nose and lips, and had then
affected his eyes. DR.. GustavuS Sabine
took the boy in charge, and during the
thirteen years that have elapsed has been
laboring TO replace the lost parts of his
face. After the course OF the disease had
been checked, the process Of building up
was begun by cutting away the flesh about
the edges of the oriiice, where the nose
had been. Then the inside Of the large
finger of the right hand was fayed, and
the fresh cut wound was fitted where the
nose should be. The hand was held In
place by bandases and plaster Of paris
until the finger had grown fast to the
forehead and cheeks Of the patient. In
the meantime the mouth was covered by
the hand, and silver tube was inserted
into the lads throat, through which he
was fed, and through which lie also
breathed.
When the grating Of the finger to the
nose was completed, and circulation estab-
lshed, the finger was amputated hear the
knuckle, leaving two and a-half joints at
tached to the face. The operations so far
had required about year, but the process
was only begun. The next step was to
trim down the finger into the shape of u
nose by removing the bone and gradually
building up the flesh OH each side and
drawing the skin from the cheeks and
forehead over it. In the course of time
the result sought was obtained, except
that there were rs yet no nOstrils.
The eyes of the unfortunate boy had
both been drawn out Of position some
what, and these were Strengthened by
clipping nerves in the manner usually
adopted by oculists in treating cross-syed
people. The eyebrows were also patched
up at the inner ends.
The next step was to give the boy new
pair of lips. This was done gradually by
taking pieces Of flesh from the checks and
grating them in place bit by bit.
On Wednesday, after thirteen years Of
experience under surgeons knife, hav-
ing meantime undergone and recovered
from thirty different operations, the pa
tient, now a young man, left the hospital.
His face was smooth, and to the casual
observer bore no traces Of what he had
passed through. The case is extra0rdi-
nary for the extent Of the work done and
the perfect result obtained. Not less ex-
traordinary was the fortitude of tho pa
tient, who never murmured under the
necessarily painful operations, and who,
when walking the floor because Of his suf-
ferlng, was wont 10 cheer up the other
patients In the ward by telling droll sto-
ries, of which lie had large supply. He
was known in the hospital as "Patient
Tommy" E.

sumo a serious aspect at Wheeling, W..
Va. The Amalgamation has issued Il card,
In which it calls upon all nail consumers
to reject the steel nail and leave it on the
hands Of the manufacturer. Ii asserts that
the iron nail is cheaper, better, and in
every way more suitable than the steel
nail, and denounces the latter as direct
stab ut organized labor. The manufactur-
ers have introduced it for the sole pur-
pose, the card claims. of breaking down
the Amalgamation, and forever subjugat-
ing iron trades-uniOns. If the steel nail
is taken up by the locsl mills it will throw
out boilers, heaters, rollers and laborers
to the number of $500, and put them on
an already overstocked labor market.
There is trouble ahead. and much anxiety
is felt in Wheeling business circles.
