What are New York's show places?

It is no easy matter to show New

Americas Coal Measures.

The very first feature that attracts the
attention OF the European visitor is the
enormous difference in the total area oil
the coal fields OF America and Great
Britain, namely, 222 800 and 5000 square
miles, respectively, and also the fact
that nearly all OF the British ones have
been worked for 30 very much longer q
period. The result OF this is that most
OF the thick seams, and those nearest
the surface. have been worked out; and
while ten-foot and twelve foot seams
are not unknown, nevertheless they are
exceptional, and seams as small as
twelve and fifteen inches are being
worked. In America, on the o<hsr
hand, the coal fields are practically IN.
touched. At present only the thick and
upper seams are being worked, and
these to larger extent with perhaps
little thought for future generations of
mining engineers. Another very grost
difference between the coal fields of the
two countries is thst in great Britain
faults are frequent and great, and the
coal is found in various parts at almost
all concei ivabIe angles. In the Lanca.
shire coal field, for example, the seams
dip II to 33 per cent. In America, on
the other hand, did not meet with 9
single instance of q fault. and met only
one man who said he had q friend who
had seen one, while the greatest dip

VOLCANO A FAKE.
Such Thing Unknown In Morrow
County.

The following article was recently
published in the Examiner: "Advicee
from Heppner say that for several years
there has been hot air coming out OF a
hole in what is known as Black Butte in
Morrow County, about thirty miles
south of here and eight miles east Of
Hardman. Near this place, down the
mountain about q mile, there is hot
spring. 1t is said that fir boughs thrown
into this seething water are consumed
in a very short time. For the past few
weeks rumbling noises. ike a train of
cars passing over bridge, have been
heard in that vicinity.
Last Sunday, while Professor W. S.
May berry and J. J. Davis were near the
Butte, they noticed what at first seemed
to be white clouds floating toward the
East. Then they heard the rumbing
noise. Again they looked toward the
summit and saw steam issuing from the
crater in the top"
The facts Of the case are that all the
hot air about Black Butte, came from
the Examiner. Frank Farnsworth who
is running sheep in the vicinity OF this
mountain, laughs at the idea OF volca-
no. It's big fake.
