GRAvELING THE STBEETs.-Street
Commissioner Graham is having
some good work done in the line OF
grading up Commercial street level
with the street railway track, using
gravel for that purpose aud grhdu-
ally sloping it to the cutters. This
Is "A very good time for such WORK,
the surface being hard, which will
cause the gravel to be leveied aud
pounded down in solid shape aud
make u smooth roadway. The
work will be continued MS far as pos
sible wherever needed, the fire en
gine teams doing the greater part OF
the hauling. The recent high wafer
piled up enough gravel iu conven-
lent places in the small rrc"ks lo
coat every street in the ciry and it
should be utilized as :ar IL possible.

Great Falls tribune., 1890-01-11

Grand Forks, Dak., and AT the Great Falls
and other reduction works, have given this
coal a reputation and made demand for
it greater than the mines now worked can
supply.
This coal has been used raw for smelt-
Ing our copper ores and pronounced an
excellent fuel for that purpose.
The physical properties of this coal.
the numerous analyses Of it, and its use
for all purposes, fully prove that it is an
excellent fuel for domestic use, for gen
Grating steam and roasting ores: that the
lower part will make good gas and coke,
and that the middle part is Il block coal
suitable for use raw in smelling furnaces.
The Sand Coule- coal is hard and strong,
breaks in large blocks. and makes verv
little dust and waste in handling. Ii is IL
clean and popular domestic coal.
FACILITIES FOR WORKING.
Nearly all the coal ut Sand Coulee is
sufficiently high above the railroad to he
dumped directly into the cars on the
track, and give ample space for shoots,
screens and all necessary appliances for
the cheap handling Of coal. The cap OF
the coal is a hard, strong sllale and thick
beds " strong sandstone It is impervinus
to water, save where cracked, and secures
dry air and comfort to the miners. Little
Or ~ timbering is needed 70 make the
mine safe. This secures cheap and
healthful working and safety from fires.
The upper shale parting makes strong
roof for working the lower six or seven
feet Of the bed, when desirable to work
the two parts separately The bed rises
sufficiently to the west t. secure perfect
drainage towards the railroad, as in the
present tunnel, whose mouth is only Il few
feet from the track of the railroad. This
dip of the bed TO the east will not only
give good drainage to the mine hut also
enable the coal cars to run out BY their
own weight, or with very little assistance.
Very few coal mines are so favorablv To-
Gated for economical working and cheap
to market.

bed has been opened and worked in
numerous places on Sand couiee und on
Cottonwood co,lee for a distance Of sew
eral miles. The bed lies nearly horizons
tai and from 20 to 80 feet above the bot
tom Of the coulres and the railroad track,
II position most favorable for mining and
loading wagons and cars.
The principal openings are by tunnels
in the 1.argent mine, the Sand Coulee
Coal comp.ny's mines, the Dean mine,
the Humphrey and the Culberson mine.
In these mines the coal varies in thick
ness from feet to lG feet. There are
some shale partings, thickest where the
coal bed Is thickest; but the shale can
easily be separated in mining.
QUALITY OF SAND COuLEE COAL,
Some persons have called this coal a
ignite, because it is found in formation
which contains beds of Ignite; but this is
us true hituminous coal as can be found
Oh the continent Like the "Block
Goals" of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Missouri, SO much used in smelling fur
naces without coking, it contains numer-
Gus thin layers of charcoal, which pre-
vent the coal from caking and choking
the furnace. In fact, the Sand Coulee
ccal bed is made of three varieties of
coal, a jet black variety with shining
resinous luster, and an even or conchoidal
fracture, which makes a tirst-class coke, a
dull dry variety with little bitumen, and
mineral charcoal with very little bitu-
men, all mora or less interstratified. The
bright coking coal is most abundant to-
wards the bottom, the dull dry coal pre-
walls in the upper part of the bed, and
the charcoal partings in the middle part.
Sand Coulee coal is high grade coal
for domestic uses, for making steam and
for smelling furnaces, either with or
without coking. This coal has two slate
partings and sometimes little sulphuret
of iron, which can be separated in min
ing. A neglect to separate the states in
mining has given the coal bad name in
some markets. Its use for domestic pur-
poses in several of our towns and its gem
eral use on the Montana Central and
Manitoba railroads from Butte, Montana to

here and authorized loans to be made

COAL ON MISSOURI AND sun RIVERS.
There are two coal beds in the bluffs

is four feet thick and of medium quality.
The other bed is thin and would not nav

RUNNING A HOTEL.
How n Society Woman Was Forced Into
Working Position.

How society woman Was Forced Into
Working Position.
There is well-known society woman
in Buffalo-one feels like apologizing
for that term, but what else can one say
of a woman who really is widely known
as one of the most delightful women
that has ever graced American society?
who has just taken the housekeeper's
charge of a hotel. 1t happened in this
way: One of the best-known hotels in
this city belongs to the family estate,
and, although in the hands of pro-
prieter, receives the general oversight
OF the owners. A few days ago hasty
word was sent up to the home of the
family, early in the morning, that the
proprietor had decamped in the night,
and, worse yet, had carried all the
provender with him. There were two
hundred guests in the house who would
have to be fed, and somebody would
have to take the helm Immediately.
Now, this very charming woman had
taken the helm of r1any enterprises
before, but never one of just this mag
nitude. Down to the hotel she marched,
however, went into consultation with
the steward, gave him an order on the
grocery stores for the necessary articles
of food, and when the first guest came
down to His breakfast he never sus-
pected that it had been set before him
through the efficiency of one of the
most prominent women in Buffalo So
ciety. No one else appeared to take up
the household management of the hos
telry. This woman had the leisure of
the unmarried woman, and so she has
gone on with the work. What before
was the duty of the proprietor-the gen.
eral management of affairs-now falls
upon her. While she does not expect
to take up bookkeeping as profession,
she is still at it. and successfully at it.
and the Buffalonians are all fiocking to
the hotel to eat dainty yiands that are
set forth with one of their most de-
lightful women as caterer.-N Y. Even
