 One engaging lining about this book strikes the reader at the out set. It is that the chapters begin with quotations from the amusing writings Of w. s. Gilbert, from the Mikado and others. Such gayeties add color to the volume. The book is first rate analysis Of the industry of btuminous coal mining and the Great confusion" everywhere ap- rarcnt in that industry. The industry of bituminous coal mining is chaotic and misorably operated in- dustry. II should be the source of greatest public comfort and it is horribly conducted.
