SCHOOL LAND AT NEWCASTLE.
Wanted by the Coal Mine People FOR /
Dumping Ground.

John F. Miller, prosecuting attorney,
and County Commissioner Fred Gasch
will leave this morning for Newcastle to
hold an interview with the Newcastle coal
mine officials in regard to selling the COM
pany a section Of school land, and also to
investigate the causes for complaint COM
ing from farmers who live in the vicinity
Of the Newcastle mines.
For some weeks past complaints have
been coming from farmers living near the
mines to the effect that their property is
! being seriously damaged by the slack"
or refuse coal, which comes from the
mines and is dumped from chute into
Coal creek. The mines are at the top of a
high ridge and Coal creek is short dis
lance away in the gorge. From the mine
runs chute made for the purpose of dispos-
ing of the "slack, great quantities of winch
are thrown daily down the hill side
to the creek. AT frequent intervals the
slack effectnally dams up the creek and a
large reservoir is formed which grows until
the water forces a passage through the
slack and rushing down mandates the
land of the valley all the way to Lake
Washington. In this manner, it is
claimed, one school section of land and
several farms have been damaged by the
deposit of the refuse from the frequent
floods.
The officials at the mines acknowledge,
it is claimed, that much property has been
seriously damaged by the slack, and it is
said they have paid one claim for 500
without dispute.
The section of land which County Com
miss oner Gasch and Mr.. Miller have gone
TO lock at is the one through which Coal
creek runs. 1t Is desired to purchase the
section from the county to use 1t for a per-
petual dumping ground. The mine off,
Gals claim that they can not build chute
in another direction, or dump the slack in
any other place.
1t is not yet known whether the county
! commissioners can sell the section to the
| coal company, as the question has been
raised whether the slack will not in time
| not only poliute the water of Coal creek
! and damage all the land through which it
| runs, but also pollute the waters of Lake
/ Washington. into which it empties This.
| among other questions, Mr.. Gasch and
| Mr.. Miller will inquire into.

Mr.. Hebron said the board of public

did not think it was in their province to
enter into any arrangement such as this

the right body to determine as to the ne

to control of the city council. The bill will
be returned with that explanation.
A letter was received from Mrs. w. +.

"WHEREAs, This city has now in its limits 800
manufacturing concerns employing capital OF
4y5ss,l50, said manufactures being 80 varied in
the lines OF goods manufactured by them, that
we. the &. sens OF Seattle, by united effort to

and by so doing attract other manufactures;
therefore, be il

foot Of the bluff between Steel hill and the
Duwamish river. The railroad company
have since occupied the right-of-way with
I heir tracks, and farmers have had to cut
q new road over Steel hill. They now
want their old roadbed back again, or ct
least part Of it, and they say it can be
had from the railroad company.
A result of the investigation Of Messrs.
Miller and Wooding is the sending out of
q party of viewers and surveyors who will
survey the proposed new county road over
the old bed. They will be ready to report
to the county commissioners in about ten
days.
Mr.. Miller says that Steel hill is so steep
and inaccessible it practically bars the
only outlet to one Of the morst fertile and
prosperous farming districts in Washing
ton, and he will do all in his power to OBJ
tain for the farmers what they most desire
Ia county road along the river.
Steel hill reaches from Lake Washing
ton east to Duwamish river. 1t rises out
of fertile valleyson either side to height
of $50 or 800 feet and in many places
breaks off in abrupt declivities, where the
county road crosses it. The hill Is not
more than mile from base to base, but so
steep that two strong horses can hard
ly pull an empty wagon up it. The
other county roads leading to the districts
south are we'll graded and easy of travel.
Between Steel hill and Duwamish river is
a narrow pass, now occupied exclusively
by the tracks of the Northern Pacific and
the Columbia & Puget Sound railways.
Mr.. Miller says that inasmuch as this
road has more travel than any other in the
county, the commissioners should do all
in their power to provide good thorough
fare

Tho Liens Bride.

In village in Germany there lived a
man who owned large menagerie. Among
his collection of wild animals was a very
fine lion, tame and gentle. For years he
had been the companion and pet of the
proprietor's only daughter. The father.
thinking it best for the child's welfare,
compelled her to marry man whom she
did not like, although he was rich. Com
PEELED by her fathers orders, she became
the wife of this man. After the ceremony
was over she returns to her home, and
seeks her only friend, Nero, the lion.
Entering his cage, she puts her arms
around his shaggy neck, and amid the
tears as they fall from her eyes: Nero. I
wish / were dead!' That dumb brute
seems to understand, for in an instant his
paw descends upon her back, crushing her.
The husband, missing his bride, searches
through the house and garden. At last he
comes to the lions cage. Horror-stricken,
he finds his. wife lying dead within. Grasp
ing q gun he kills the lion. Such is
the story of the lions bride. The lions
bride is now on exhibition in Kline &
Rosenberg's window. Front street, foot OF
Cherry, and was viewed by thousands OF
people during yesterday afternoon and
evening,

this city, spoke last evening at Tacoma to
a good representative audience upon the
problems of life and death from q Theo-
sophicai standpoint. The morning papers
of Tacoma gave Mr.. Keightley kindly
notices of considerable length, and there
is every reason to believe that the distin-

ences while here. As speaker both
logical and reasonable he comes highly
recommended. While in the city Mr..

purpose in delaying these estimates. He
was not aware that the matter was in the
hands of the engineer. He thought the
city engineer had better report such things
to the board before proceeding with them.
Mr.. Gardner replied that he would not
