Coal from Other Regions.

The Courier has noticed for day or
two quantities of coal being shipped
northward over the B II Il Il. Being
aware that the mines of the II & Il Coal
and Iron Co and the Jefferson & Clear
field company, which usually supply all
the coal shipped north from here over
the b II Il r.. and that these mines
we're idle on account OF the strike, there
was some curiosity to know where this
coal was coming from, and it was learned
from tranmen that it was being brought
over the c & NJ division from the Beech
Creek field This was an odd spectacle
one heretofore unknown--inasmuch as
the hauling Of coal over that division
has always been eastward, and in the
endeavor to get further information
Superintendent Reed. Of the company's
mines here. was called upon to learn
further about the situation 1t was the
first time Mr. Reed had been approach
ed by the CcWicr since the suspension
Of the works, and he was still inclined
to be exceedingly reticent and declined
to make any positive statements Some
facts the Courier had learned he adj
mitted, but would add nothing
SO far as our knowledge goes, then, as
obtained by observation and in talks with
trainmen, the coal company, or COM
panies, las there are two separate organ
izations) are supplying customers with
coal from other regions-to what extent
we cannot tell--while the thousands Of
men at their own mines are idle Doubt
less the amount of coal they could secure
is limitless, as the reports show that
the suspension is local We feel that
this information is due the public here
abouts, and II there is anything new in it
for the miners to think about we shall
be pleased II it is of service to them.

ocrats Of the county who has lived in
Jefferson county for forty years and has
been resident tax payer of the same

his party and has never before thought
OF running for county position and is
only candidate at this time at the earn
est solicitation of his numerous friends.

SCHOOL FOR INDIANS
VERNIILION LAKE BUILDINGS NEAR
TOWER PRACTICALLY COMPLETE.
Splendid Educational Plant For In
dams will Be Ready for Use Soon.
Gas Plant, Watcrvorl<s and IL
Sewerage System Are Part of the
General Enuipment-O. A. Gates
for Superintendent.

Col. E. S. Radcliffe, architect of the
Vermilion Lake Indian boarding school
building, was down from Tower Wednes-
day. He reports the eight buildings, com
posing the school, as completed. The fur
niture, bedding and other equipments,
eight car loads, are on the ground and
are being installed. The water and sewer
systems are completed and awaiting the
final tests, but the gas plant is not yet
constructed owing to the severity of the
cold weather.
The superintendent OF the school, ap-
pointed by the government is Mr.. o. A.
Gates from Fort Berthold, N. D., where
he conducted a similar institution with
great success, his departure being a
source of keen regret to his dusky pupils.
The buildings are built below the ridge
that runs east and ives across the Sucker
Point government reservation on Vermi-
ion lake, facing to the south overlooking
Tower bay with the city of Tower and
the Minnesota mines in the distance 1t
would be difficult to imagine more beau
tiful or more suitable site for the loca-
ton of the Indian school and there is a
peculiar significance in the location of
the buildings standing as they do with
their back to the squalid scene of the old
Tndian camping grounds and looking out
across The water upon scene of modern
civilization and restless industry.
The largest building Is the dormitory-
1875 by 123 feet. This contains % rooms
ard Will accommodate about 40 pupils
Desires the matron, assistant matron and
attendants. The school room building is
16t 10y 30 feet, one story high, divided into
several class rooms and offices. The en-
ployes generally are lodged In a double
dwelling two stories in height, and in ad-
dition there is a large warehouse a fine
barn, an ice house and a pumping sta
ton. All the buildings are Of frame con-
struction.
The water works plant is particularly
complete. The main pump has a 24-hour
capacity of 4250O0 gallons and Is con-
nected with a standpipe u feet in dame
ter and 65 feet high with a capacity of
1000 gallons. There is also a we'll which
has a sand filtering system that renders
the water from it as clear az crystal.
Fire protection Is afforded to all the
buildings by means of regular city mains
furnished with regular hydrants for at
tahcing hose, Of which there will be
plenty. The water supply is drawn from
Vermlion lake and the sewerage is con-
Quoted under the little ridge into the
small bay the reservation, thus doing
away with all chance of communicating
the water of Tower bay.
The date of the formal opening of the
school has not yet been determined upon
by the authorities, but the Tower people
hope to see the whole institution in full
running order before next fall

STAMPS FOR CUBA.
The POstoffice Department Prepar-

The postoffica department is preparing
to issue a special series of stamps for
Cuba and the designs have been approved
by the postmaster general. The ISSUE
says the Washington correspondent Of the
Baltimore Sun. will consist of one, two,
three, five and ten-cent stamps.
The onc-cent stamp has the word
"Cuba" across the top, with a figure l
in each of the lower corners, and "Cen-
tavos'' across the bottom. The center is
occupied by a picture of the Statute of
Columbus which is the court yard Of
tn palace of the captain general in FIa-
vana. 1t will be printed in green. There
are two designs for the two cent stamp
portraying the same idea, but with diff
ferent arrangement. They show scene
from 4 sugar plantation. The first has
Cuba across the top, with the plantation
scene in the center, and SO Centavos'' at
the bottom. The other has the plantation
scene in the upper left hand corner, with
the word Cuba across the center, the fig
ure underneath and centavos at the
bottom. The plantation scene occupies
moro space in the first design.
The three-cent stamp has the word
Cuba acros the top and in the center is a
picture of the allegorical figure of Cuba,
which stands in the plaza Of Havana. 1t
represents a woman seated on a throne
and is called La Cubana.' On either
side of the figure is the figure g. and az
the bottom the word ccntavos. The five
cent stamp has the picture Of merchant
steamer at full speed, IMPLYING COM
merce. On the side are palms and trop-
ical foliage and at the top the word
Cuba. Across the bottom is > CcntavOs.'
The ten cent stamp bears the represen-
tation of a farming scene in Cuba. A
Cpban is driving Two oxen narnessed 10
thch primitive plow in use in the island,
with the long upright stock by which it is
guided. The word Cuba appears at the
top, with The figure 10 on either side and

tory of the pos: office department that il
has been called upon to prepare stamps
