Where oar Hard Coal Comes From.

where Our Hard Coal Comes From,
Three ink blots on the eastern end
of the map of Pennsylvania, between
the Delaware and the Susquehanna
rivers, represent all the anthracite
coal i'll the United States. They cover
nm area of 4ie square miles, and pro
dneed last year 5S, 500, 900 tons, truly
infinite riches in little room. They
are popularity known as the Wyoming,
Lehigh, and Schuykill regions. Their
limits are 80 sharply defined that one
can pass in five minutes through one
of the notches in the surrounding
mountain wall and find himself as
much out of the "coal regions" az If
he We're hundred miles away.
The coal measures lie on floor of
conglomerate rock. which rises about
them on all sides like the sides Of n
basin, and is exposed to the slopes and
SUBMITS of the mountains surround
ing the coal regions. The coal meas
ures which lie in this basin are COM
posed of alternate layers of rock and
coal piled upon each other like the
layers of ielly-cake, in which the
thick layers of cake represent the rock
strata and the thin layers of Jelly the
coal beds. The thickness OF the coal
beds varies from foot to 30 feet, and
that of the rock from few feet to 200.
The coal beds are pretty regularly dis
tributed throughout the coal measures
and their presence in "A certain place
can generally be calculated upon, SO
that each bed bears its own name. -

There was significant incident at a
Democratic convention in Missouri a
day or two ago. One of the speakers
mentioned the name of the president,
at which spontaneous cheer broke
out all over the house. 1t was only
afterward that the delegates remem-
bered the improperly of cheering a
Republican in a Democratic conven-
ton, and SO broke off abruptly. But
this tribute to the honesty and cour-
age of Mr. Roosevelt may we'll suggest
to the politicians of both parties that
his strength with the people is too
great to be weakened by the ordinary
tricks of the party boss. There are
doubtless thousands of Democrats
who would rather see him elected
in 1904 than several of the prominent
men in their own party who have as
pirations for the presidencY,-Provi-

lyn. He was witness before the
Schley court of inquiry and gave strong
testimony in defense of Admiral
Schley's conduct during the war. His
selection as n personal aid to Admiral

accepted as high testimonial of his
impartial devotion TO duty under all
circumstances.
Rear Admiral John Crittenden Wat
son. who has been selected to repre-
sent the navy at the coronation of King
Edward VII, is of Kentucky blood
and is nearly sixty years old. He is
descendant of John Jordon Crittenden,
the famous Kentucky statesman, rival
of Henry Clay, at one time governor of
Kentucky and attorney general in the
cabinet of William Henry Harrison.
Admiral Watson was graduated from
the Naval academy in 1860, subse-

becoming rear admiral in March,
1859. He made a brilliant record dur
ing the war of the rebellion, taking
part in many engagements, notably
the passage of the forts at New Or.
leans, Vicksburg and Port Hudson and
the battle of Mobile Bay. For three
years preceding the Spanish war he
was governor of the Naval home in
Philadelphia.
In the war with Spain Admiral Wat
son commanded the bcckading squad
ron on the northern coast of Cuba and
was appointed commander in chief of
the eastern squadron, fitted out to pur-
sue Camara's feet.
Admiral Watson succeeded Admiral
Dewey in command of the naval forces
in the Philippines, where he discharg-
ed important duties satisfactorily to
the administration. Since he was re-
lieved from that post he has been presi-
dent of the naval examining board at
Washington.
Probably few remember that it was
this same Admiral watson, lnen
young lieutenant, who lashed Farragut
TO the rigging during the battle of Mo
bile Bay. This is the story in brief:
The powerful Confederate ironclad
Tennessee attacked the Hartford fierce
ly. Farragut took his position in the
port mizzen rigging. the better to OBJ
serve the progress of the fight and to
direct and cheer on his men. Lieuten-
ant Watson, seeing the great danger
to which the intrepid admiral was ex-
posing himself. procured rope and
lashed him in his place.
With such men to represent the Unit
ed States navy we need fear no loss of
prestige at the coming gathering Of the
nations fleets.

and there gained much valuable ex-
perence in bushwhacking methods Of
fighting.
When the Spanish war broke out.
Governor Pingrec made him colonel OF
a Michigan regiment. Later he went
to the Philippines and ut the head of
his regiment marched into the city of
Tayabas and took possession after a
sharp Skirmish.
One year later these formerly hostile
natives gave Major Gardener one of
the most enthusiastic and cordial dem
onStrationS ever accorded in the Philip
pines to an American wearing the ar
my uniform. 1t was on the occasion Of
his departure from the province, TO
which he was destined to return as
civil governor. Hundreds of the most
prominent natives gathered to bid him
farewell. Young girls read addresses
in his praise. He was escorted to the
cathedral by the padre. A ball and
supper were given in his honor. and
American and native flags were swung
from the houses and stores along the
way.
Major Gardener took no military es-
cOrt and went unarmed, but loyal
population guarded him and testified
their regard. 1t Nas a personal tri-
umph for the major and remarkable
testimony of his kindly rule and un-

went back as governor. he was hailed
