Eldora, Nov. 5.-The tests that have
been made near Eldora to ascertain
whether or not coal exists in this sec
ton of Iowa have developed the fact
that there IL coal in paying quantities.
According to the statements made
there is a vein of coal varying from
three feet and eight inches to five feet
and three inches in thickness and
that it spreads far enough to insure
large daily output that will extend
over number OF years.
One of the best veins of coal has
been found on the Huff property and
another on the Sharon Fagg property
north of the pipe and tile works.
( The men who are promoting the in
designations are very reticent and will
not make statement until they are
positive that they have what they now
believe that they have They are Sc

which the veins run and are extending
their drilling in several directions
At the present, however, 1t appears
reasonably certain that before winter
is over coal OF good quality will be
mined and shipped from Eldora.
