Hundred More Men Shortly.

Carbon County Democratic: Mr.. E..
f. Bush, vice-president and manager
of the Rocky Fork Coal company, ar
rived yesterday from Roslyn, Wash,
where he is also manager of the
mines at that point, and will remain
for two weeks. Mr.. Bush expresses
himself as we'll satisfied with the
mines here, and the progress being
made in their development. The new
tipple will be worked in about ten
days, and in addition to the men
who have been put on lately there
will be work for about 100 more min
ers.
Mr.. Hawkins is at work with a
diamond drill with which a thorough
test Of the company's property will
be made, and it is expected that
another good vein of coal will be
found near where the men are now
working, in which event another tun-
mel will be run to it.
The men r now working on full
time and taking out more coal than
ever before. Last Sunday three ex-
ira trains were loaded, and the COM
pany is beginning to catch mp with
its orders. Extra trains are being
run daily, but when the arrangements
are completed the output will be
greatly increased. There are now
over 400 miners employed.

Mrs. H. S. Williston Entertains in Honor
of Her Sister, Miss Hays.
The largest society event Of the
winter season was the domino whist
party given Thursday night by Mrs.
H. S. Williston at her home OH North
Twenty-ninth street in honor of her
sister, Miss Mabel Hays. There were
some twenty-five couples present, all
of whom had a very enjoyable time.
In the contest with the cards Miss
Mae Calhoun won the ladies' prize and
Mr.. Leo Carper, that of the gentle
men, both being beautiful paintings
by Miss Hays. Elegant refreshments
followed the card playing, and when
these had been disposed of. the
guests were entertained with some
splendid musical selections on the

tions by others.

THE MCCORMICK SPECIAL.
1t Averaged About Fifty-Seven Miles an
Hour for the Whole Trip.

The special train carrying Paul Nc
Cormick and wife, run from Omaha,
reached Billings Friday morning at
GAS o'clock, having been delayed.
The train, consisting of engine,
tender and sleeper, left Omaha at 2
O'Clock Thursday afternoon. and
through Nebraska made excellent
time. Through one section of that
state, 1870 miles was covered in exact
ly 1913 minutes. Between Ravenna
and Billings over an hours time was
lost and about the same between
Omaha and Ravenna, but the train
was not running. At Alliance Super
intendent Phelan placed his private
car at the disposal of Mr.. Mccormick
and wife, and accompanied them to
Billings, returning to Alliance yester.
day afternoon.
The actual running time Of the
train from the time it left Omaha
until it reached Billings was 948 min
utes, the distance being 500 miles.
This was at the average rate of al
most 81 miles per hour. Considering
the mountainous country through Da-
kota and Wyoming this can be con-
sidered very good time, and especially
is this, so when it is taken into con-
sideration that the Burlington had no
light engines on this division such as
are generally used in making fast
time.
