ANTHRACITE COAL IN WYOMING
Fuel Containing 81 Per Cent Carbon
Found on Piney Creek.

Yesterday a reporter was shown a
piece o. coal taken from a mine on Piney
creek. 2 miles north OF Buffalo IN john
son county, which is exciting a great
deal OF interest and comment among the
Cheyenne mining men and dealers. The
specimen. which is about the size OF a
hens egg, is semi-an,hracite in charac.
ter and is as hard as rock, although it
can be mined easily and burns as freely
as a pine knot. A test was recently
made and 1t was found that this coal
would burn longer and produce greater
heat than he hard Goals o. Pennsyl.
vania. The sample in question resem.
bles a piece Of oak wood, the fibers and
grain being plainly shown.
The reporter was told that this coal
carries the highest amount Of carbon OF
any in the state. being 81 per cent.
This deposit Of anthracite coal was
discovered on Piney about a year ago.
Already about $1,000 OF development
work has been done and It is understood
shipments will begin in a short time.
Judge Stotts and Mr.. S%parhawk and a
number OF Crook county and Lincoln,

SHEEP CAMP HELD UP.
Seven Head O: Horses and Some Valu>
ables Stolen.

A special from Rawlins says the sheer
camp OF August Swanson. about As miles
south OF there. was held up and robbed
by two men yesterday afternoon.
The robbers got away with seven head
OF horses, a couple of rifles and Other
valuables. The two herders who were
in charge OF the camp were forced to
surrender at the point Of a Winchester.
The robbers were not masked and
were recognized by the sheep herders
as two men who had stopped at their
camp a couple Of days before. SO there
will be no trouble in Identifying them II
they are captured.
Mr.. Swanson came TO Town today and
notified the officers of the hold-up. Sher.
if Davis started cut this afternoon and
will probably organize a posse in the
southern part Of the county to scour the
country for the thieves.

1t would swing across Sand creek and
across the Boulder ridge, and from

tributary Of the North Poudre. The cos;
OF the construction OF his ditch would
be something enormous. hut il 100 ,OOt
acres of ground could be reclaimed, ST..
OOO, 900 could be expended with prof

was made and the scheme pronounced

had the unlim ed gall 10 request State
Engineer Mead to present a proposition
to the Wyoming legislature for an act t

say that the state engineer did nothing
OF the kind.
