|: MINING NOTES..

Sturgis, KY, Seyt. 10. The
West Kentucky Coal Company
of Sturgis. owned by the North
American Company of N W
York, which recently bought and
merged all the large colleries IN
this section, has advertised for
bids on the building of 400 brick
and frame buildings to be erect
ed on where they have laid out
new town to be called Gardi-
ner, in honor of the president of
the company.
Hugh Griffin, stable boss at
the st. Charles mine, was in the
city Sunday on business.
Mr.. James Skeen was on the
sick list several days this week.
Mr.. Jordan, of Barnsley, was
here Saturday on business.
Mr.. VIM. Skeen, of the No. IL
mine, has resigned and gone to
Empire, where he has accepted
position.
Messrs. James Ligon and VIM.
Lamb were in jacksonville
Tuesday on business.
The twentieth of last April
was the day on which the ground
was broken for the new coal
shaft on the land purchased of
Mrs. w. S. Elan, near this city,
says the Henderson Cleaner.
The shaft is just beyond the L..
& N. r. R., few hundred yards
beyond the Marshall Furniture
Company. The shaft has reach
ed depth of three hundred feet
in the one hundred and thirty
five yards that have come and
gone since April Goth. The read
ing public will admit this result
lis a great achievement when it
is remembered the time required
for sinking the shaft of the Hen
derson Mining and Manufacture
ing Co., to a depth of 1S6 feet
was just fourteen months. And
that shaft is only one half the
dimensions of the Nicholson
shaft, which, it will be remem'
. bered is ten by twenty. A sim
pie calculation demonstrates tht
rate of progress to be about 2 l.
feet per day, and since the re
quired depth of the present shat
is about 700 feet one hundred
and eighty days must come ant
90 before the necessary deptl
S shall have been attained. 1t wh
: be deep mine when completes
: 200 feet. But coal is minet
: at Pottsville, Pa, at a depth 0
1900 feet.

s shop force, visited in Madison
j Vile and at Nebo Monday.
i j. w. Rogers, of this place
was in Madlsonville Saturday OF
business.
The work of development al
the new mine of the w. S. Dun
+ can Coal Company at Graham
Muhlenberg county, is progress
ing rapidly and the main entry
has been driven in far enough tc
begin turning cross entries. The
company expects to be shipping
s coal from this mine in a short
: while.

that the market for dark tobacco,
so long held by Clarksyille,
Tenn, will be permanently re
moved to either Guthrie or Hop

ing for practically the entire
Tennessee and Kentucky crops,
means, in the opinions of men
well informed on the subject,
that the Tennessee town may
cease to figure as great tobacco
center. A movement, which has
long been on foot, to erect sam.
pie warehouses at this place has
been given fresh impetus by the
position taken by the Italian
buyers, and it is practically GER
tain that steps will be taken this
week to make Guthrie the Mar
ket for the entire crop Of the
black patch.
Whatever the result may be,
as far as Guthrie and Hopkins
vile are concerned, it is almost
certain that the position which
has belonged to GAINESVILLE as the
largest dark tobacco market in
the world, and second only to
Louisville in importance as a
tobacco center, will hereafter be
held by a Kentucky town.
Passes clarksviile.
The refusal OF the Italian buy
ers to go to Clarksville was due,
it is thought here, to desire to
avoid any complications might
result from squabble in which
the Board OF Trade of Clarks-
vile has been the chief factor.
For several days the agent for
the Italian Government, Joseph
Ferigo, better knowR as the
Reggie buyer, has been in this
section of the State and In Tenn
essee, looking over the tobacco
situation. Ferigo has n contract
with the Italian Government,
the largest purchaser of dark
tobacco, for, it is generally I'M
derstood, from 5000 to 10000
hogsheads. He has been look

of which is held by the farmers

On Thursday he asked for
samples of the association to-
bacco, which have b e n In

the association. He refused to

them, and asked that they be
sent to him at Hopkinsville.
This was done, and the deal is
now well under way. tits prob

association crop will be sold at
association prices.
Associations Anniversary.
Next Saturday the first ami
versary Of the association will be
celebrated at the fair grounds
here. A barbecue, the like of
which has probably never been
seen in Western Kentucky be-
fore will be gwen, and it is es-
timated that 10000 persons will
attend. Farmers from one end
Of the black patch to the other
are preparing to come bring
their families, and the crowd
Nwill undoubtedly be the greatest

made to entertain the crowd.

QUEEN WILHELMINA's DECLINE
ALARMS HER FAITHFUL
SUBJECTS.

The Hague, Sept 25.-The people of
Holland are alarmed over the i'll health
of their young queen, Wilhelmina. She
celebrated her twenty-fifth birthday
last month, but she looks at least 40
and her former bright, vivacious char
acter has disappeared
For three years, ever since she dis
covered her husband, Prince Henry of
Mecklenberg- -Schwerin, to be a disso-
lutte gambler, she has been bowed in
sorrow, broken in health and constant
ly brooding over shattered ideals.
The doctors can do nothing for her
because her trouble is mental and not
physical.
Henry is despised and hated in Hol-
land. Wilhelmina makes him small
allowance and has let it become known
that she will pay no more of his debts,
SO that the prince cannot obtain credit
anywhere.
