as possible. and Drs. Walter L. Bier

Iowa City, and n. p. Engle. OF Newton,
have spent q greater part OF the sum-
mer abroad In the completion OF this
work, and have returned with some Of
the most interesting and instructive
pathological specimens ever brought
into the state. This collection will start
anew the priceless material destroyed by
the fire and will be placed in the new
f1reproof building until the medical
school has q building OF its own. DR..
Bierring, in company with Drs. Engle
and McClintock, spent several months
of the early summer in Germany and
Austria, and were very much gratifed
at the amount Of material they succeed
ed in collecting. DIR. Dean brings much

Davenport. Sept Goal has been
discovered on the farmsof E.. A. Worrell
near this city. 1t is believed to be a rich
vein. The discovery was made by the.
merest accident and until recently it
was not known that there wae any pros
pect Of coal. worrell is a resident of
Clinton and is city councilman The
discovery was made in peculiar man
ner. A week or two since the water
in creek which runs. thru the Worrell
farm of 200 acres dried up.
He took spade and went along the
creek bottom, digging here apd there,
trying to locate spring. His attention
was attracted by the odor of sulphur
and he made careful examination Of
the ground and found sulphur seeping
out Of the creek bank. This was during
the hot weather and Mr.. Worrel con-
cluded that he would make thorough
examination of the ground as soon as
the atmosphere became cooler. He spent
last week at the farm, and while their
thoroughly Investigated the matter and
was rewarded by finding rich vein of
coal. lying close to the top of the
ground In fact the removal Of a little
earth brought to light the coal prac-
tically cropping out Of the earth. Mr..
Worrel says there is two foot vein Of
coal, underneath which is a four foot
vein of coal. He said he followed the
vein along the creek for distance of
sixty rods and there were no indications
of its diminishing. b
When asked how much OF his 200 acre
farm was underlald with this vein of
coal Mr. Worrell replied that he had ev-
cry reason to believe that it covered
sixty acres ard perhaps much more.
This place is known as the old Porter
farm and has been worked for the past
sixty years and 1t seems strange that
the coal has not been discovered before.
However, Mr.. Worrell thinks this the
first time the creek has ever gone dry
and one has ever had occasion to exam
inc the ground. The land is only mile
from the c.. r. I. & p railway and If, the
coal is worked out, side track will be
built to the mines.
