Myers--Priquet

Last Thursday evening, at 8
O'Clock, Miss Gertrude Priquet
and Fred Myers were united in
marriage, Rev. Forde officiating.
The marriage. took place at the
residence of the brides parents in
this city, only her mother, sister
Carrie and brother Oscar being
present. Shortly after the cere-
mony the couple left for ranch of
G. A.. Cook on Brush creek where
they will begin life.
Mrs. Myers is the youngest
daughter of MIR. and Mrs. John
Priquet of this place. She was
one of the brightest girls in her
class at school, is handsome and
accomplished and has a large cir
Gle of friends among the young
people of Saratoga. MIR. Myers is
an Industrious young man with a
reputation for steadiness and
straightforward, upright conduct.
He has lived on Brush creek for
the past year and is we'll
thought of. May happiness and
prosperity attend them,

The Ryan Coal Bank

j. p. Ryan, of Walcott, was a
city visitor last Saturday. Mr..
Ryan is engaged in opening up a
valuable vein of coal about one
mile north of Walcott and has the
contract to furnish coal for the
engines on the S. & E. road. The
tunnel on this mine is over 600
feet in length and the coal being
taken out ls improving rapidly
over that mined heretofore. An
analysis of three samples of this
coal when compared with the an
alysis of the coal from Rock
Springs shows very f~avorably,
there being but little difference.
1t is said that the Ryan coal does
not clinker. This is a great adj
vantage over the Rock Springs
product, which clinkers badly.
From the present appearances the
product of the Ryan coal bank
will soon come into such favor
not only will it supply the s. q e.
road but it will be in general use
at both Saratoga and Encamp-
ment.
