Facts Brought Out In the War with

Great progress has been made In ia

STRUCK COAL.

]. n. Sherwood, who occupies n
lease on the Frank Elliott farm,
about two miles southwest of Sen.
eca in the Indian Territory, Is sink.
ing a shaft OH that place in search
of mineral. After going down
about % feet in gravel and slate he
discovered seam of excellent soft
coal. The deposit of coal proved to
be about eighteen inches in width
and about six feet in thickness. Mr..
Sherwood sank through II and after
removing a foot of slate or soap
stone, another deposit of coal was
discovered. What the extent of the
last deposit is has not yet been de-
tcrmined. The work is, however,
being pushed, and we shall be able
TO report later as TO the last coal de-
post.
Mr.. Sherwood regards the dis
covery of coal as an excellent indi.
cation of mineral, and is pleased
with the prospect of finding lead in
paying quantities.
The advance of prices for lead to
n paying basis would doubtless put
renewed energy into the mining
business at thispoint, and build up
an industry in that line of no small
proportion. There is doubtless
enough coal in the vicinity of the
Sherwood shaft to furnish steam
power 10 operate the industry

ROYAL Courtesy.

A characteristic incident of the visit
of the prince and princess Of Wales and
their daughters to the general post
Office has just become known. The
story is, Us they were passing through
the tclcgraphic department, the prince
suddenly marched up to IN operator
and tapped him on the shoulder. The
telegraphist hastily dismounted from
his stool and made respectful saluta-
ton TO the prince. The reply Of his
royal highness was to take the young
mans hand and shake 1t heartily, an
example which was followed by the
princess and the rest of the royal fam
lily. 1t was aftcrward explained that
this telegraphist was on duty ut Sand
bingham during the fatal illness of
the duke OF Clarence. Tho story en-
bodies two of the princes most charm
ing characteristics. First, his great
gift OF retaining in memory the faces
of those he has known ever SO slightly.
Secondly, his true royal gratitude and
swiftness In acknowledging services
rendered.
