The Kemmerer Coal Co, are pushing
work ON their mines with all possible
haste. 1t is said they have orders for
100 cars daily as soon as they can pro
duce that much. The entries are now
in good coal and rooms are being blocked
out as rapidly as possible and in few
weeks the miners will be shipping coal.
The strike at Diamondville is still on,
and no doubt this is an incentive for
Mr.. Quealey to push his work with all
possible vigor. At any rate ere long
coal from Hams Fork will be going
over the Short Line in immense quaint
ties.

sticking out of the end of the car struck
him. He was thrown forward with
time terribly lascerating his leg. Al
was brought to this city where DIR.
Guyon dressed the wound and made the
unfortunate man as comfortable as
possible.
