MEETS DEATH IN WRECK.
Engineer AIphonse Coener, Of Thi,
Place. Dies Of Injuries in Collision.

Engineer Alphone Coenen died
last night of injuries received
in a wreck that occurred earlier
in the day at Edgefield Junction,
Tenn The unfortunate engineer
was in charge of End No. 30,
northbound, and on nearing
Edgefleld Junction applied his
air TO prevent a collision with
another train. The air refused
to work and in the crash that
followed he received the fatal
injuries that resulted IN his
death. The engine and fourteen
cars were derailed, the engine

suspended after the last rise,

latter now refuse to give up

two on the river, and it is feared
that not more than 10000, 900
bushels of coal can be gotten out
on this rise.
The jury in the case of Hardy

turned a verdict of $500 in
favor of the plaintiff Friday
morning in circuit court. Hardy
was injured at the mine by be
ing thrown on screen by the
engineer. The coal company was
protected by liability policy.
In all probability the defendant
will ask for new hearing and
if this is refused Will appeal the
case.
A coal famine existed all over
Kentucky last week and accord
ing to reports the famine was
especially severe throughout Gen.

be secured from the mines be-
cause the railway companies
stated thatthere were not enough
cars to supply the demand.

MINING NOTES.

models Wi begin an exhaustive
test of the Kentucky kimberlite
deposits, which geologists say
are practically identical with the
olivine pyroxine rock in the
Kimberley lieldsi in South Africa.
Diamonds have been found in
the United States at scattered
intervals from the great lakes to
the Southern Appalachians, and
every now and again stone has
been picked up of sufficient
value TO, start a fever of local
excitement ;.but, except for the
work now going on in Elliott
county, no organized effort has
ever been made to determine the
possibilities of diamond mining
in the United States.
Most of the finds so far have
been in alluvial deposits. One
of the best remembered was a
24.karat stone of good quality
picked up at Manchester, Va,
in the fifties, but the source of
the scattered stones has never
been traced. The Kentucky
kimberlite outcrops are the only
true diamond bearing soils that
the geologists have knowledge OF
in this country. 1t remains TO
be determined by wholesale
washing operations whether these
deposits carry true gems and in

A town that never has anything to

The cemetry. ANY citizen who will do
nothing for his town is helping to
dig the grave. A man who curses the
town furnishes the coffin. The man
who Is so selfish as to have no time
from his own business to give to tie
city affairs Is making the shroul.
The man who will not advertise is
driving the hearse. The man who is
always pulling back from any public
enterprise throws bouquets on the
grave. The man who who is SO stin-

town lies buried from all care and

by proslavery men, headed by Martin
White, and came near being hanged by
them. In telling the story Of his escape
he has said:
'"The party stopped finally and made

then the man withdrew. and, going to

in toAes, the same number in each

There was an odd number of PEN
MES so that If he put an equal
nuinLer in each of two boxes tie e
would be one penny left over; in a
like manner he figured on 3, 4, o, 6,

The son gave it up and told his
father he thought 1t imposs bic to
perform the feat.
His father replied: 'Gkidoo-23

In May, 1856, that the socalled "Potta-

In revenge for the assassination Of
five antislavery men Brown and his
associates had taken five proslavery
men from their beds and hanged them.
1t was enforcing his doctrine of an eye

thought the way to win the battle for

stern handed treatment to his pro.

he did, Brown replied, Those men
