 in the journal of Father IIrnnr-
 pin, a French Jesuit missionary.
 who .l 1879 recorded lhn site of
 d "cnlr minc' on the Illinois
 river, near the present city of Ottawa. III. The first actual mining nf coal was in the Rich mnnd Basin, Va, about 70 years after Father Iiennapin's diScov- cry in Illinois. but the first re- cords nf production from the Virginia mines were for the var
 1922, when, according In one au- lhuriiy, 5i,00n tons were mined. Oh F probably ranks second in priority of production. as coal was discovered there in I755, but the records of production only date back to 1898. The mining VI tlil Ilt III 1'fIlllSy lNdlIld began about l790. and it is said that in i801 55 tons were shipped lD Columbia, Pa.

MUNRO'S BRIDE IN SPRING
Mother of Aida Veitch Says
THEY'LL Wed Then.

Mrs John H. Veitch, the mother OF
Aida, who, with Henry Munro, only son
of the late Norman l.. Munro, the pub
Usher, went to Jersey City on Thursday
and there secured a marriage license, de-
cared yesterday that neither her daughter
nor Mr.. Munro had even a thought OF
eoping, but had merely secured the
license so that it might be handy when
needed. She said they would not be mar
red until the spring.
NO, my daughter is not in town just
now" she declared yesterday. "She is
staving a few days with ain aunt, so that
she may escape the inquiries Of the re-
porters. My daughters engagement with
Mr.. Munro IS with the consent of her
parents. and was announced three months
ago. They were really engaged about a
wear and a half ago. ! will say, though,
that their hurry in securing the license
was rather a surprise to both her father
and myself
''I can say also that my daughter will
not marry Mr. Munro until the coming
spring" When Mrs. Veitch. whose hus-
hand manufactures celluloid articles at
No 81 Washington Place. expressed the
foregoing there was an unmistakable tone
Of dnality and authority in her voice. She
added that Mr.. Munro was in town with
his mother.
At the apartments at No. 800 West 59th
street. where Mr.. Munro lives with his
mother. it was said that both had gone
out of town for few days.
