FIRST COAL IN UNITED STATES.
Richmond Basin, Virginia. Produced |,
$50 Years Auo.

The presence of coal in the Rich
mond basin of Virginia was known as
far back as 1900 and mines were OPEN
ed and worked at as early a date as
1850. In 1888 shipments were made to
some of the northern states. In 1922,
according to r. c. Taylor, In his Sta
tstics of Coal" the production amount
ed to $4,000 short tons. For nearly
a century the Richmond basin MAIN
tanned some prominence as coal pro-
Queer. but in 1922, when the Pocahon-
tas district was opened. followed very
shortly afterward by the development
of the New River field in West Viz
ginia, the mines in the Richmond ba-
sin were put at a disadvantage and
operations we're for many years prac-
tically suspended.
During the last four years, however,
new life has been introduced into the
Richmond basin areas by the reopen
ing of the old Clayton mines In Hen
rico county. For many years after the
opening Of the southwestern Virginia
and the southern West Virginia Goals
the mines of the Richmond basin lay
idle or were worked only for re-
strlcted local market The Richmond
basin Is the only area producing free
burning coal which lies Immediately
adjacent to the Atlantic seaboard.

IMPROVEMENTS AT HUNTER.
lew Type Of Air Compressor is In
stalled.
(Mullan Progress)

The Hunter company at Mullan has
purchased the latest type of Norberg
air compressor for installation at the
mine. The machine Is Of 20 drill ca
pacity and will be driven by a $50
horsepower electric motor. In the
mine 1t is the intention to install a
new skip hosting system within the
next month. and a new electric haul
age train. All surveys have been
made for the installation of an electric
haulage track system In the mine and
mill yards. Work has also been start
ed on the siding which was started
last year from the Northern Pacific
tracks to the portal of the lower tiin-
mel, This track win do away with the
present system of double handling the
stulls and panks for the mine. and
will provide more dumping ground for
the waste from the sorting plant. The
company will also install new ball and
pebble mills in the present milling
plant.

BUTTE GROUND VALUABLE.
Big Concerns Quietly Gather in
1850 Acres.

1t estimated now that the company
that has been quietly buying up claims
south and east Of the city, accumulat-
ed in all about 1850 acres. the ground
costing $1,240,000, says the Butte
Miner. Most of these claims were
bought at comparatively low prices.
But the knowledge that the Amalga-
mated or the Guggenheims or Tho
mas F. Cole was out buying undeve-
loped claims sent prices up and now
the purchasing agents are making
slow Roadway. The significant feature
of 1t all Is the fact that capitalists
now realize the Butte districts min

any portion Of the state and Idaho Is
better watered than any western state.
a fair amount Of timber, and mineral
resources that embrace all the pre-
eieus and valuable metals.
j 1t Is the latter we wish especially
to note at this time. Custer county
has vast mineral resources, possibly
not surpassed by those of any county
In the state, not even our own But II
lacks the main necessity to developing

DEEP SEA DIVER
DOES GOOD NINE WORK
MANNER HERETOFORE
UNKNOWN.

With ordinary consideration the last
place on earth when deep sea diver
would look for employment would be
in a mine. And yet In the foothills of
the Sierra Nevada mountains, In one
of the oldest mining camps of the west,
on the famous Mother lode of Cali
tornia, is exactly where his services
fit in. and where a bad situation was
relieved through his efforts Follow
ing is an account Of 1t:
An original and unique method Of
removing distractions from a water
filled shaft was recently employed by
the Renter Mining company. operating
properties near Angels Camp. Cal
Last December a fire destroyed the
mill. hoist and other equipment, and
left two skips wedged in the shaft
When new pumping equipment was in
stalled 1t was found that the water
had blocked the skips firmly and It
was found practically impossible TO
either dislodge the Instructions or un-
AIDE. After trying several unsuccess-
full experiments, Manager John c. Ben
son arranged with G. Q. Abrahamsen.
a deep sea diver, to so down the shaft
and examine the obstruction and de-
termine on method for their removal.
the report of the diver, Mr..
Benson went into the water filled shaft
with Abrahamsen, and the two men
not only extracted the skips from their
position In the shaft and sent them -
surface. but also retimbered and re-
paired portions of the shaft that had
been damaged. All the work was done
under 50 to 100 feet of water.
"The feat has attracted much in
terest on the Mother Lode and other
districts. and it is likely the idea will
be utilized by other managers in ex-
aiming water-filed workings"
