is fitted out with slicker garments and
boots, and also given a miners cap
with an acetylene torch. A guide is
furnished, who escorts them through
the mine. If the hoist is not too busy
they are permitted to go down in one
of the cages. Otherwise they must
walk down the incline, which is the
entrance for all of the miners.
Visiting the Workings
A small car has been fitted up for
conveying passengers, and one of the
electric locomotives is attached The
visitors climb in, keep their heads
down to prevent them striking the
low roof, and while the trolley flash
es and sparks as it darts along the
wire the visitors are conveyed! to
various sections of the mine where
they may watch the miners perform
ing their work. In one entry a ma
chine is finishing an undercut; in
another the workmen have been pull
ing pillars and already in places the
roof has caved in; cars drawn by
mules are being hauled from various
entries to the track leading to the
hoist. The barn, pumps and other sec.
tons are visited. In case the guests |

purpose they may use one of the /
telephones.

mine is the largest in the state and

Area to be Mined
Mineral rights to two and half
sections of land (ten quarter seotions)
are owned by the company, all but
one quarter section lying in Burleigh
county. During the thirteen years
the mine has been worked the oper-
atoms have been confined principally
to one quarter section, with the ex-
ception of the main entries, which
have extended under a second quar-
ter. Several years will elapse before
all the coal from the first quarter
section will have been mined and the
coal supply will not be exhausted for
two full centuries or longer. Six OF
the quarter sections will be worked
from the Chaplin mine. The other
six will be worked from Mine No. 2,
about mile and one-half east of
the Chaplin shaft. A shaft and hoist
have already been installed at No. 2
mine, but it will not be In actual use
for some time.
Market for Wilton Coal.
Branch Offices of the Washburn
Ignite Coal company are established
at Bismarck and Minot, at each of
which two men are employed. Wilton
coal has been sold extensively
throughout the entire state and also
in Minnesota. Many of the state in
situations use Wilton coal exclusively.
In the years past the coal has been |
conveyed north and south out Of Will
ton over the 500 line. The opening |
of the Pingree-Wilton extension of
the Northern Pacific system gives &C
cess to a large new field. This new
territory is not So extensive, hOWeve

the Drake extension of the 500 line, I
which will give the coal company a
direct route to Devils Lake, Grand
Forks and the northeastern section
of the state. The Inauguration of
regular service on tie Pingree-Wilton
branch will enable the coal company
to call for cars from two railways
which will be benefit, since the lack
of cars has heretofore proven a great
hindrance. The company will have
more protection against car shortage
in the future.
Protection in Weight.
All coal shipped from the mine Is

The greatest single waste OF our

1t is waste of the children's time,

there is TO do, in city and country!
