UNCONSCIOUS OF ANY WRONG
Remarkable Case of Juvenile Depravity
Is Reported From Sery,
France.

PARIS. June "a remarkable case of
Juvenile deDravity is reported from
Sery, in the department of Aisne.
NJ. German and his wife went out on
Wednesday. leaving their one-year-old
son in the charge of the eldest girl
named Adrienne, aged twelve Seeing
the baby was asleep. she went into
the village for some milk. and in order
not to wake the child got out of the
window, leaving it open.
She had scarcely disappeared when
two little boys, Maurice Helm and Jean
Bideaux, each aged six. who were play
ing close by. entered the house by the
open window. Finding the baby asleep,
they put IL into an empty potato sack,
which they proceeded 10 stuff with
grass. and then carried It between them
to the water butt outside the house
They threw the sack into the butt, and
then Scampered away.
When the sister returned she was as
tonished at finding that the baby had
vanished. After several hours search
she found IL drowned IN the water
butt
AS the boys had been seen near the
house. the mayor Of the village sent for
them n the presence of the HORNED

though they were apparently unaware
that they had done anything very

Virginia Anthracite
Relieves Coal Market
Country Awakening to New Source of Hard
CoaI-PennSyVania May No Longer Fix
Rates as She PleaSeS

The recent shipment Of Virginia an
thracite coal to Chicago has attracted
attention to the field of anthracite in
southwest Virginia, where extensive
Developments are now under way and
which is described in this weeks issue
Of the Manufacturers Record Some
OF these deposits were worked on a
small scale prior TO the civil war, and
all of the indications point to the fact
that the paying coal of these deposits
lies in Montgomery and Pulaski coun-
ties The article says:
The total estimated acreage OF the
Riontgomery field is about 1000 acres.
This includes the coal between the coal
outcrop and the limestone outcrop. In
Glcations are that the coal Is minaDle
within q few hundred feet of this lime
stone fault Hence the entire region
between the coal outcrop and the lime
stone fault is included. This estimate
also throws out considerably property
where the strata are SO lauItS ailu
i.roken as to make mining impractlc-
able.
The Washington times., 1904-06-06

THE extent of the deposits of the
Pulaski field is yet TO be determined,
but is almost as extensive as the Mont
gomery field 1t extends and has been
more or less developed from New River
to the city of Pulaski. but all operations
except those at New River have been
practically abandoned.
The coal, as shown by chemical an
alysis and by its physical character
istics. has rather a striking resemblance
to the deposits in the Lykens Valley
region Of Pennsylvania. Its luster is not
as great as the usual run Of Pennsyl-
vania coal 1t is more tender and car
ries more volatile combustion, but II
gives absolutely no smoke except with
very careless firing; chimneys are en-
tirely free from SCOT and the ash is
white, though in some places there is
sufficient iron to give 1t a reddish tinge
For ordinarily domestic uses there is
little or no clinkering except where fires
are very heavily forced. Certain con-
stituents of the ash seem to melt and
form just the right amount Of clinker
to give satisfactory results for steam
boiler work
