Byron v. Sewers. the Oskalooss
coal prospector, who has been work
ing his forces northwest of Des Moines
for several months, has recently
been making regular trips to Knox
Vile and through the surrounding
country. Byron can tell by the color
of the leaves and the spots on the
cattle whether there is or is not a
good vein of coal lying beneath the
woods and pastures, and the prospects
are that we will know more about
his Marion county visits in a year
from this time than we do today.
