Camp Idlchour" was the very pretty
and appropriate name selected by the
party of young people encampcd at
Mint Spring during the earlier part OF
the week. Although the weather was
not altogether favorable for camping,
it is certain that the party enjoyed
themselves most thoroughly, and more
delightful spot for camping than Mint
Spring is not to be found in all OF Po'
tomac's winding course.
Not many fish were caught, but in
spite of this fact there was always
Something doin' " at meal time and the
young ladies broke all records in their
successful efforts to out-eat the boys.
Mrs Hattie Hill chaperoned the party

How the Coal Trust WORKS.

A recent dispatch from Piedmont
this State, says: i,
The organization of the two c0ai
companies known as the Fairmont
Coal Company, at Fairmont, and
Clarksburg Coal Company, at Clarks-
burg, is not generally understood by
the public. These combines Wi soon
own all the working mines IN that
region, and they expect to control The
output and sale of that coal. The
public imagine they will have to keep
on buying up new mines from time to
time, but this is a mistake. 1t has
leaked out that these companies have
combined with the railroads IN that
section, and that no more switches or
sidings will be put in for any new
mines, and that, therefore, there Will
be no more mines opened IN that
section in opposition to the combine.
This is proved by the fact that the
combines are not buying any unde-
veIoped coal land, as they know the
present owners cannot develop it IN
opposition to them. This arrange
ment will raise the price Of coal,
enabling the railroads to get small
share of the profit, and will, for years
to come, make many acres of coal COM
paratively worthless.

John Miller, of this county, who has
a large fortune coming to him from
England, now feels certain that 1t Will
be but a short while until be will re-
ceive his legacy. The amount coming,
as claimed by John, is $34,00O00O.
This is quite nice little fortune. Mr.,
Miller makes a great many trips to
Washington to call on the English
Ambassador, Sir Julian Pauncetote,
and is usually entertained by the Am
bassador at luncheon or dinner. The
new hope of a speedy settlement has
been brought about by the fact that
his friend King Edward has taken the
matter NJ and is now pushing in the
interest of Mr.. Miller. The latest
news is to the effect that the money
has been shipped in two iron safes and
is at present on the ocean. If 1t does
not sink John will be heeled.-War-
