THE COAL PRODUCING STATES.
Colorado Holds Place in Production Of
Black Diamonds.

The most important change in the
order of the coal.producing states re.
sulting from conditions which existed
in 1906 was the replacement of Illinois
by West Virginia as the second state
In rank. For several years the pro-
ducuon of West Virginia has been
creeping up on that of Illinois, and in
1906 the state took the position held
by Illinois since 1876. Under ordinary
conditions this displacement would
have occurred within year or two at
any rate, but it was possibly fastened
by the suspension of mining In the
spring Of 1906 in those states where
the mine workers are organized, It
is true that. notwithstanding the al.
most complete shutdown Of the Hi.
nois mines for period Of about
eleven weeks, that state exhibited a
normal increase over 1905, and It is
claimed that the production would not
have been any larger had there been
no interruption to mining operations.
but 1t Is also true that during the shut
down In the. other states mining in
West Virginia was exceptionally active,
and in addition to the increased pro-
duction at the operating mines, new
territory was opened up and much new
development work was started, As n
result OF these conditions West Nir-
ginia in 1906 made larger increase in
production than any other state, and
took second place. In view of the de-
velopments made in progress 1t is not
likely that West Virginia will be sup
planted by any other state.
The only other changes In rank
among the ten leading states was the
resumption of fifth place by Alabama,
which had been supplanted in 1905 by
/ Indiana (now SIXTH. and the supplant-
| ing of Kansas by Tennessee as the
tenth state in the amount of produc-
! duction.
The record for 1906 shows that Penn
sylvania's output has once more fallen
| below so per cent. of the total produc-
| ton of the United States. In the com
| bined production of anthracite and bi-
I luminous coal, Pennsylvania as re-
1 Gently as 1880 was credited with two
thirds of the total coal output of the
country, but the proportion produced
, in that state has been gradually q.
clining, and In four of the last fiyc
I years the percentage has been less
Z than so. In 1906 Pennsylvania pro
duced 4Si per cent of the total. l1.2
1 per cent. being represented by the an
thracite and 3I.2 per cent by the btu.
minous production. OF the other i'm
/ portant states. West Virginia con
tributed 10.5 per cent, Illinois 10 per
cent, Ohio 81 per cent. Alabama 81
per cent, and Indiana 30 per cent,

THE PRACTICAL NEW WOMAN.
She ls at Home Anywhere and Can
Manage q Farm.

Num-, Colo.-Coming to Num- two
years ago for the benefit OF her health.
Miss Jennie Pettyjohu. an obscure.
though pretty Denver milliner. by req.
son of her business ability. push and
energy, has become the foremost and
most influential business woman
northern Colorado.
This town of 500 Inhabitants. which
was until year and half ago. wide.
barren stretch Of prairie. with here
and there a rancher's home to break
the monotony. owes much to this ener-
getic woman Of twenty.eight or thirty
years.
Largely through her efforts many
settlers are reclsiming the desert lands
in that vicinity which promise to be-
come one OF the most productive in
Colorado.
When Miss Pettyjohn first deter
mined to live out of doors as much as
possible In order to benefit her health.
she selected the country near Num-.
seventy-two miles from Denver. on the
| tionally desirable because of its few
human habitations and because 1t pre-.
sented an opportunity for development.
Taking up 100 acres OF land. more
than half of which are now under cul.
| tivation, she made her start with the
meager savings of several years In the
millinery business. Seeing the posi-.
bilities of the country she secured op-
| tions on thousands of acres Of land.
and has since held those options while
the price of land has been soaring to
double and treble the price asked
when she first went there.
The beginning of the new irrigation
ditch has meant much to her. as 1t in.
sures her sale of the property at an
excellent profit before the time limit
| on the options expire, since the ditch
will be completed by May /. 1908.
Wishing to put her land under cultiva.
| tion as soon as possible she has hired
! workmen and built many miles OF
fence TO protect her own land and
some Of that on option from stray cat
| tie. and also to get 1t in line for i'm
provement as soon as possible
Lots in the townsite of Num- have
proved one OF the best speculations
Tor her. She bought several at low
price and has since sold them for four
times what they cost her.
| Every time she heard Of a person
In Denver or elsewhere who wanted
land she has interested them in Weld
county land. particularly about Num-,
and has almost invariably succeeded
In getting them to settle In or near
that township. 1t is estimated that In
this way she has secured settlers for
10000 acres.
All this goes to show that the pres
ent.day new woman" is equally at
home anywhere. In Denver there are
lady BARRIERS. lawyers. doctors. brokers
and women engaged In other lines OF
business. The experience and success
Of Miss Pettyjohn proves that women
! ms real estate agents. providing they
have the right qualifications, can pros
per as well, II not better, than men en-
gagged In the same line.

New York.-That William Jennings

is an assured fact, from the New York
standpoint.
This forecast is based upon recent
occurrences. One, the formal state,

OF Minnesota that he is not and has
not been candidate for the nomina'
tion for president, and his declaration
that he knows that William j. Bryan
is, and has been, candidate for the
presidency for the past three months

rival. out of the way, the nomination
of Bryan. in the eyes of the leaders

The victory OF Charles F. Murphy as

national convention.
This means, II is pointed out. that
Murphy and his combination will be

The Murphyites are particularly

Men Face Death at Sea.

Lundon.-A heavy gale blew over
the Irish and Welsh coasts Wednesday
and there are several exciting rescues
of the crews OF wrecked vessels.
The most serious disaster was near
Seafield, County Glare. where the
French ship Leon Kill, from Queens
town. September 2Gth, at which port
she arrived recently from Portland,
Oregon. went on the rocks. No news
has been received that the crew had
been rescued.
A report which came In at an early
hour described her sails as blown into
ribbons. and said mountainous seas
were bi eaking over the ship.
The men have spent a terrible day.
Most OF the time they have clung To
the rigging, beaten and numbed by the
pitlless seas.
There is II big crowd on the beach,
but they are powerless to render as
slstance.
The point where the vessel Is
ashore is the most dangerous on the
coast. She lies 250 yards In direct
line from the mainland, but the pres.
ence OF huge rocky barrier between
the ship and the shore compels the
llfeboats In their efforts to get into
communication TO take circuitous
route through the boiling seas,
All through the day and until n late
hour the lifcboats and coast guards
made determined but fruitless efforts
TO reach the doomed vessel.
