1t was harmless deception that
was practiced on the Rev Howard

ed as rector Of the Church of the In
carnation. says the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Bishop Greer ofiiciated at the solemn
services. part Of which provided that
the rector receive the key to his
church.
In his capacity as senior warden
this duty devolved on Francis Lynde
Stetson, the lawyer. He went through
the ceremony Of presentation with ap-
propriate dignity. Bishop Greer
preached the sermon.
After the services came the discov-
cry that the key presented to the new
rector was a key that formerly un-
locked the gates of an East side Gem
etery. now seldom used. The sexton
probably has real key, anyway. so
the rector never will be locked out.

CoIorado's Oil Production.

Colorado has two well established
producing oil districts, at least one
other that only waits for adequate
transportation facilities to join the
ranks OF the producers, and number
of promising prospects where proper
development is likely to bring salts
factory results. The Oldest and pres
ent best oil district in the state is
located in and near the city OF Flor
ence. in Fremont county. The record
of the district for 1911 shows a total
production of 100000 barrels OF crude
oil. This is 5000 barrels greater than
the record for 1910. and is an addition
al demonstration of the reliability of
this district as a steady producer.
The second producing district OF
Colorado is located in Boulder county.
The production of crude oil in his
district for 1911 was 10000 barrels.
with value of $4,000. This was
1000 barrels less than the production
recorded for last year.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1912-01-04
Coal Output Normal.

The figures given out this year by
the state coal mine inspector, giving
in detail the production OF coal in
Colorado during 1911, indicate on their
surface "A decrease Of little more
than 100000 tons by comparison
with the output a year ago.
AS a matter of fact thee oal proluc.
tion of Colorado during 1911 was
greater than the normal production
during the year Immediately preced-
ing. There is a normal increase in
spite of the fact that there is an ac
tual decrease. And the reason is
this
During the year beginning 1910
there was decidedly abnormal un-
natural demand for coal from Colo
rado. 1t was caused by the closing OF
mines in other states-mines that
should have been supplying large
amounts of coal. There were strikes
among coal miners in Illinois, Kansas.
Arkansas and Oklahoma. Coal mines
in those four states were producing
far less than their normal output
The result was a great demand for
Colorado coal. The mines in his
state were worked night and day to
supply the unusual demand. The
normal output of Colorado mines was
increased more than 100000 tons.
During the year beginning January
I, 1911. the coal mines of Colorado
produced, according to the state in
spector's figures, 10,075,S61 tons. Dur
ing the year beginning January /, 1910.
the output was 12,1O4.sS7 tons. And
the difference between the two figures
is less than the estimated number of
tons shipped from Colorado during
the year 1910 as direct result Of the
strikes in the four states named

city. there was always the feeling
that 1t would take long to cover the
ground, between the stream and the

not only advanced right on to the

Idaho SPRINGS.

Idaho Springs.-The lower Clear
Creek gold district has had very
prosperous year and while there has
been a decrease Of per cent in the
outgoing shipments of ores and con-
compared with 1910, the final figures
will show some gain.in the gold. silver
and lead production. with loss In
the production of copper and zinc, SO
that the total output of the district in
values will be practically the same as
In 1910.

Georgetown.-The year just draw
ing to a close in the upper Clear
Creek district was unusually pros
porous More mines were undergoing
development than at any time in
years, while in number of instances
rich discoveries were made This dem
onstrates that the mines are not by
any means worked out and that they
will continue to surrender literally of
the precious metals for generation
to come.

Leadville.-There is nothing dis
couraging in a glance backward over
the progress that has been made in
the Leadville district during the year
1911. If this glance is taken in com
parison with other mining communl-
ties of the state it is encouraging, for
Leadville has had a year that is as
prosperous as any.
