Profitable Coal Mines in Weld

Burrowing for their winter homes a
few weeks ago. prairie dogs on the
Vernon McKelvy farm, in Lone Tree,
Weld county, brought up small pieces
of coal. This led to an investigation
which uncovered an eight-foot vein of
good coal. AS soon as crops are off
the McKelvy fields the owner will put
down shaft and expects to open a
splendid deposit. He believes that it
will be feasible to open and operate
the coal mine and yet not materially
interfere with growing crops on the
land.
The discovery goes far to prove that
valuable coal fields underlie northern
Weld county and that the coal mining
and the development of the coal areas
may be made profitable. This is the
opinion of Fort Collins and Denver
capitalists. who are now making n
thorough inspection of the supposed
coal fields.

Havana.-The island of Cuba has
probably sustained the greatest ma.
terial disaster in all her history in the
practically continuous hurricane
which began with light rains, devel-
oped into torrential floods and hurri
canes and continued until this even
ing.
The western half of the island suf-
fered more severely than the east.
The first storm, of which there was
some warning, had hardly abated Sun
day night. when suddenly the wind,
which up to then had been southeast,
changed to southwest. Cyclonic blasts
swept over Matanzas, Pinar del Rio
and Havana provinces, completing the
destruction wrought by the first
storm.
1t is impossible to estimate the
amount of the damage. which doubt
less will aggregate millions of dollars.
Many thousands of peasants in the
three western provinces have been
rendered homeless and it now seems
probable that the republic may be
compelled to request international aid.
A barge containing all The outfit of
the divers working on the wreck of

Soldiers OF the fortress succeeded

and other marks around the Maine
we're swept away, which probably will
delay seriously the work OF raising
the wreck.
President Gomez, in an automobile,
visited the inundated sections and
other threatened parts OF havana He
directed the work OF rescue and later
visited the hospitals. to which many
injured and destitute persons had
been taken. Arrangements are being
