NEED MORE MINERS
By CLYDE W. ENNIS

Perhaps the most picturesque habit of the late Col Henry F. DeBardeleben, as remembered in local industrial circles, was his mulebacz trips through the tract less forests of this district seeking de- posits of coal to uncover to mans use that valuable commodity It is, therefore, very regrettable that he could not have remained on earth until this time to ride through the remarkable Acmar mine upon a favorite mule and see the amaz- ing deposit and seam of coal therein. For a man may easily mount fair sized mule or horse and ride straight into the opening there, where 500 tons of coal are being mined daily, under the management of the two stalwart sons of the late pioneer.
 There has been a great deal said rela- tive to the mines at Acmar which were started Is months ago by Colonel De- Bardleben, and upon whose development he spent his very last day on earth But it is scarcely possible for figures of speech to clearly define the deposits and convey the correct magnitude to ones mind.
 The seam Is known as the Mammoth seam, a combination of the Henry Ellen seam with another of like characteristics. It is situated 25 miles from Birming- ham in St Clair county and in the short space of IS months that wilderness has been transformed into one of the busiest and most valuable mine camps in the whole Birmingham mineral district. The mine was started some time back and at the left of the tipple at No. 1 there is to be seen "a mountain of coal, measuring thousands of tons, which was taken out while the mine was being worked for an opening. The owners have now completed a washer midway between Acmar and Margurite mines which washes 75 per cent of the coal mined at both places with re- markable speed and economy.
