On the 18th of August last Frank
| Mccartney, son of j. c. McCarthes,
of Ashland, left that city with d
| horse and buggy and started on O
trip through part of Boyd and
Greenup counties TO pay rentals on
gas leases for the United Gas AMI
Fuel Co., of which his father is sl-
perintendent. On the following
Wednesday, Sept. 4th buggy was
found near what is called Pickett's
Ford, near Naples, Greenup county.
just over the Boyd line. Not Ear
from the buggy stray horse, with
part of the harness on, was found.
He had been hitched to tree with
a halter strap but had broken loose,
leaving part of the strap on the
tree. The search was continued aai
about dark body of a man WAS
found in the edge of the creek, not
far from where the buggy was
found. Examination showed that II
was the body of young McCarthey.
There was cut over one eye ana
some scratches on the face, His
watch and money had not been dis
turbed. So far the cause of the
young mans death remains mys-
terry. His father, Mr.. J. c. McCar-
they. is quite well known in Louisa
He was in Inez when he heard Of
the untimely fate OF his son.

lumber for houses and other build
ings.
| These eight mines have beef
opened and are actually PRODUCING
coal, which is being dumped il
separate piles and kept in storag,
to be loaded into railroad cars Later
on; but the principal work is being
done underground, to make room
for the large number of laborers to
start work coincident with arrival Of
the railroad and the building of the
tipples. Already some $1,000 to 49,
600 tons of merchantable coal have
been mined and all underground
work is progressing satisfactorily.
The Pond Greek Stores Co, has
been incorporated to do a general
merchandising business, and has
three small temporary stores open
ed with fair amount of trade.
Nearly 100 dwelling houses for
miners have been completed, or at
least completed enough to make
them habitable. and this work is prt
crossing at satisfactory rate.
In November or December when
all supplies and machinery begln
coming in, the officials expect to be
ready for it, and with the time al
lowed for installation, should start
on January 1 with very fair pro-
duction, which should increase daily
throughout the year. In fact, it IS
reliably stated that 1918 will prove
of a record breaker SO
far as rapidity of coal development
is concerned.
The coal has been thoroughly
tested out in the markets, and the
is having constant inquiry
as to when shipments may be ex-
pected. A very large sales force IS
the probable markets,
and no difficulty should be ex-
perienced in placing the tonnage
he first year or two.

WARREN, OKLA.

While looking over the pages oil
the NEWS it brings back memories
of my boyhood days and old as
sociates in the Big Sandy Valley.
The NEWS is always received
with willing hands and the pages
with letters from different places
are noted. Quite often the names OF
intimate friends appear that bring
back by-gone days with Joy.
For three years have been
basking in the sunlight of south
west Oklahoma, and for all L like
the country and climate L never
lose the love for my old home and
Lawrence county friends. Now
will try and tell something about
this country. The soil is mostly a
losmy sand. while we have some
tight land. 1t is all productive. Cot
ton is the principal crop. still corn.
wheat, oats, kaffercorn and maize
are grown in large quantities. This
Is a fine alfalfa country and Ia
grown extensively. Like all the
southwest we are subject to drouths
hot winds, sand storms and northers
Cyclones are not so numerous as |
had thought for before living here,
still we have one once in awhile.
most commonly about the first Of
May and June. People are prepared
for those emergencies therefore
there are but few deaths from cy-
clones. Crops are fine here this
year. Hot winds didn't modest as
any because there was plenty of
rain on the plains of N. NJ We
have no timber except along the
streams, the country is level. with
exception of brake now and then
by the Wichetaw mountains.
The red man still exists in our
community. The Kiowa tribe live or
exist in about eight miles of our
town. They are harmless, molesting
nothing and fast passing away.
The country Is thickly settled
generally a house on every quarter
section (16O) acres. Our winters are
not so severe as In Kentucky and
we are never tormented with. mud
long at a time. There is always a
breeze blowing which keeps the sur
face dry. There are but few Ken
tuckians in this part but i meet
one now and then.
With best wishes for the NEWS
and Lawrence-co. people will ring
off to come again some time.
