COAL.

Whether large coal measure OF good
coal, Of sufficiently heavy veins to be
worked easily at profit, is valuable, has
been settled in the affirmative too often
to require discussion. The millions in
vested by operators in new fields prior
to the advent OF railroad into the coal
measures, of itself indicates the desire of
coal capitalists to secure valuable tracts
of coal land. This status of affairs
would not be surprising to those who
do not own or operate coal mines if they
had placed before them the figures which
would chow how many tons of coal an
acre of ground will produce where the
vein is regular and the thickness three,
four, five or six feet. The amount is
wonderful and the EAGLE will present
the figures at future time.
Coal men know these facts. The pri-
mary necessity for Lincoln county's
interest in coal matters, with reference
to both White Oaks and Salado coal
fields is for the outside capitalist, coal
dealer and railroad investor, to first de-
termine whether there is good coal in
sufficient quantity to pay to put il.
machinery and make other large invest
ments if they had a railroad. Coal is
one of the greatest factors in determin-
ing the probable profitable freight
traffic that new railroad would acquire
by entering new coal field. The market
for coal then becomes the final point
which will decide both for the coal
operator ana the railroad as to whether
that feature of business will pay.
OF the market the EAGLE will treat
later. The White Oaks coal field has re.
celved ample attention in the past
Several articles will be required in the
EAGLE to do justice to the Salado Goa
field.
At distance of twenty five miles from
White Oaks, via Nogal, the western edge
of the Salado coal district is reached
although only about IA miles distant by
direct line But to better describe it, il
may be well to- commence at given
point. Imagine yourself standing in the
eastern half of an immense rincon ol
basin. Bi-secting this basin into foul
equal parts crossing Numerically, the
quarter section in which you stand hal
been, at one time, the bottom OF larg,
lake.
Rising ON the eastern edge Of thil
basin is an abrupt, rough, rocky ridge
with but a small narrow gap broker
through it, the bed of this gulch or gar
lying little lower than the remainder o
the bed Of the basin. The whole basin

The albuquerque Durango railroad
needs only the necessary capital to make
it an assured fact. The EAGLE and
White Oaks people hope that the effort
now being made by it's representatives,
in New York will be successful With
this road completed to Albuquerque, it
would not be very long before either the
Pecos Valley tho Aransas Pass OF some
other railway will connect it with deep
water via White Oaks.

Two IN TRoUBLE.-A Portland
dispatch says: Nellie johnson,
daughter of the proprietress of the
Independence hotel at Dallas, board
ed the wide gauge train yesterday
afternoon, after having eluded those
who were searching for her all day.
Suspicious were aroused by her
actions that morning,and her moth
er soon went to the school whittier
she had pretended to go, but she
had not been there. She had i'm
mediately started on foot to Derry
some five miles away. 1t is presum-
ed that her affections had been gain
ed by Sid Moore, and knowing her
mother would never give consent to
the marriage they had concluded to
eIope. Young Sid went from Salem
to Portland on the east side the
same morning. She is only four
teen years, and officers were wired
to hold Nellie as soon as it was un-
derstood that she had taken the
train and Sheriff Wells will doubt
less leave this morning to escort her
home. Her mother only last week
married the father of the young man
who has now captured the daugh-
ter's affections. A warrant is out
for him on a charge of seduction.

INSANE MAN Ar SCHOOL.
A Couvalescent Patient Who Want
ed to be Enrolled at the
East Salem School.

The coolness of Mrs. Supt. Grubbe
was taxed to q high degree this
forenoon when a stranger called
and asked to visit the school. From
his dress aud manner she at once
recognized him as patient from
the State Insane Asylum. When
questioned he said he came from
Canada year ago and lived not
quite in Salem. He said he want
ed to attend school, strange re-
quest from one whose beard and
hair were white as snow. Mrs.
CIrubbe eaid that only persons be-
tween four and twenty years were
received. 1t was all plain to be
seen the man was not In his right
mind, but crazy.
How to get him out of the office
and out of the school without letting
the pupils know his condition and
possibly create a panic YVES a prob
lem. Mrs. Grubbe decided to let
him visit the schools!
She gave him note to Prof. An.
derson, stating that he was insane
and requested him to detain him In
his room by all means until an at
tendant could be secured from the
Asylum. This was done and only
two pupils even mistrusted that one
of DIR. Rowland's patients had been
to visit the school this forenoon.
