IL is thought by many that when tie
Fort Worth and RIO GrEnde builds to
S!epaenville that it will only be d short
time until it will ruu spur out to the
Eraih county coal mines, kBcwn by many
SO me "Stcawl Mines" which is mis-
lcmer, as S.rsWn is seven Ialles from the
mines. There are three shafts now op=n
or these mines, and G fine quality Of coal
IS being taken out. TIE coal h4ld is i'm
mense n extent, sud it is predicted thss
thousands Of men vii, be employed in
rham before the lag3c CT many yesrs. The
coal is twenty seven inches thick, and al
teadY some 500 MIXERS are employed and
" t1rivi9g Town has been built up around
lie mines. l. would not be bad idea
Tor tie railroad folks of the Fort
Worth and RIO Grande TO give
this coal business LITTLE careful conaid-
GRAFTON. Tle right Of way can be had at
nominal figures, and feasible route can
oe obtained from Stsp5eIvil|e. At the
strides TlxAs ID n1sklng in population and
Wessb, these immense coal fields will be
& ocnalzs 10 the railways snd mine own
ets Il IS supposed that this cosl nsld
extends to the rapch of Trey & Minican,
which contains about 10000 acres CT
land, rs thA eu.cropplugs are to be seen
il many places not far from the ranch,
sad it is said thar the "b!sck diamonds"
have slTeady sgeen discovered in one OF
tie gulches on this lard. M. Trey lives
Of S:epbenVille, sad Intends to prospect
come ume in t5e future. Tie anxious In
