STRUCK 1T RICH.
Finest Vein of Coal Ever Uncovered
in Grass Creek Canyon.

A vein of the finest coal ever I'M
covered in the coal fields OF Grass
Creek canyon was discovered on the
9th of last month by the Grass Creek
Coal company in its mine. the Cullen.
The company was running level to
prospect the mine and had been work
ing for several days through some
very poor coaA, when suddenly on the
day mentioned, the vein was struck.
The vein, as far as worked, is nine
feet deep, and gives every prospect of
enlarging as it is developed. The coal
is of the bituminous variety and is the
hardest and best ever discovered in the
Grass Creek canyon. 1t is needless to
say the company is jubilant over the
find.

Figuring on the Maryland Demo-
cratic Delegation.

BALTIMORE, June 2.-The slate for the
state Democratic convention, which will
meet here on the 10th inst, has practi-
cally been made up and it is reasonably
certain that the following will be named
as delegates at large
John Z. Hurst, of Baltimore; John Gill
and E. Warfield, Baltimore, and j. F.
Pierce, of Kent county.
Senator German will not go to Chicago
as delegate nor will he seek reelection
as a member of the national committee.
The state platform will contain as en-
phatic a gold Plank as can be devised, and
will endorse the Cleveland administration
The delegates will probably go to Chicago
uninStructed.

Il believe a fairly amicable adjustment

rs it possible the free silver element
will have a majority sufficiently large to
control the convention?'
mo, 1 do not look for a split. In fact,
1 am satisfied there will be none Demo-
Gratis as a general thing recognize the
right of the majority to rule and they are
willing to accept the result. Furthermore,

riage excited the suspicious of the rela-
tives and friends of the deceased wife.

and the stomach shipped here for anal
ysis.

whether any poison had been used.
He expected to go to work as soon as
possible with the analysis. and make
report first to the Commemorative at
torney OF Norfolk county.
