Coal at Marshal's Creek.

A find of coal in the neighborhood
of Marshals creek has thrown that
place into q state of much excite
ment.
While John S. Fish, who has a
farm about two and one half miles
from Marshalls creek, was digging
along a ledge of rocks ON his proper
ty his shovel threw up peculiar
black looking substance.
Fish picked up the substance and
upon close examination was convin-
ced that it was coal. He carried
some to his home and placed it in
the fire. He was agreeably sur
prised to find that it burnt easily
though it was composed of little
slate.
Elated with his find he took some
of the stuff down to blacksmith Cole
who is authority on black diamonds
through forty years experience in
using them. Cole tried some in his
furnace and found that it burnt free
ly. He stated that the coal is of a
superior quality.
Fish will get an experts opinion
of the coal and in the meantime is
digging up portions of his farm to
see if there are any more traces.
1t will be remembered that some
time ago coal was discovered at Re
sica. The whole country within a
radius of five miles from Marshall s
creek was at one time leased by the
Pennsylvania Oil and Gas company
who were going to bore for oil, but
owing to the company disbanding no
operations were made. Monroe
county has several times shown evi-
dences of coal, gas and oil.
Mr.. Botsford, who is interested in
in the oil wells near Henryville, was
in town Monday and stated that they
had bored to a depth of 1900 feet
going through two stratas of rock
finally striking oil, which mixet
with water, yields about fifteen ar
rels a day. He further stated that
they would bore still further.-Dai.
ly Times. Whilst all hope that Goa
may be found, the substance discov
cred by Mr.. Fish is probably n othins
more than Marcellus shale, which
has led many in the past to believe
that it is coal.

The opening of the St. Nicholas
Club skating rink brings one of the
most perfect, healthful, and grace
full exercises within easy reach of
city people. New York knows very
little of the practice of skating, no
opportunity being afforded between
the Battery and the Harlem, except
the Central Park lakes, which on
the rare occasions when they are
frozen over, are covered so thickly
by the throngs of skaters that the
exercise becomes almost impractic-
able. The st. Nicholas rink occu-
pies a substantial light, and roomy
structure, built for the purpose.
The ice is artificial, and is renew
ed several times daily, presenting a
hard clear and smooth surface, two
hundred feet long and about seven
ty-fve feet wide. 1t is admirably
lighted by day and by night. There
is no need for the visitor to burden
himself or herself with skates they
may be rented at a nominal fee.
Uniformed attendants provide for
the comfort of visitors, and give
instruction. The building is pro-
perly warmed, but not heated If
you want heat, you can seek the
vicinity of large open Fireplace, in
which a wood fire is blazing. The
location of the rink is very convent
ent,-Sixty-six street, just east of
the elevated station on Columbus
avenue at hand are the Columbus
avenue cable, the Sixth avenue, and
the Boulevard cars. There is music
afternoon and evening. The st.
Nicholas rink is fashionable, and,
though the admission fee-flfty
cents during the day and seventy
five cents at night-may seem high
it serves its purpose in excluding un-
desirable company.
