Bemornaic atc - Bellefonte, —— Pa., October 17, 1902 GOOD ADVICE. How foolish is the pessimist, Despondent and forlorn, Who always, when he gets a rose, Goes hunting for the thorn! The optimist has better sense, The charms of life he knows. He doesn’t mind a scratch or two If he can get the rose. So do not be a pessimist, Cankered with discontent; The optimist has heaps of fun That doesn’t cost a cent. —Somerville Journal, The Geology of Coal. Interesting Article by the Chief of the Naticn- al Bureau of Statistics. The Story of the Carboniferous Periods. Little Spot in Penn- sylvania That Furrishes Over One-fifth of Sup- ply. O. P. Austin, chief of the bureau of sta- tistics, Washington, D. C., recently had a highly interesting article in the New York “World”? on ‘‘Coal-mining—Its Geology and Mechanics.”” Many people who live among the mines and breakers have little idea of the formation of the substance that contributes so materially to their well-be- ing. Mr. Austin says : The existence of the great coal strike, involving 160,000 men engaged in oue of the greatest indastries of the country, an industry upon which all others are abso- lately dependent, suggests some facts about the coal production of the United States and our national standing in the production of this important article. There ie no desire or intention of discussing the strike or its demands on the side of the em- ployed or emplorers, or the merits or de- merits of a single factor of that complicat- ing question. But the ahstract auestion of coal upon which every industry is de- pendent, upon which the domestic machin- ery of almost every household is dependent its productions, distribution consumption, and the position in the. United States amoung the nations as a coal producer, which is an interesting one at all times, is rendered doubly interesting by the event now in progress. The uineteenth century may be termed a ‘‘second carhouniferous period’’ for the United States, thie period, that is, when the processes of coal formation was reversed by the use of coal fuel by man. The year 1800 saw William Morris offering for sale 1n Philadelphia the first load of anthratice coal ever taken into the city, and it was rejected as ‘worthless black stones.” The year 1902 finds the United States the world’s greatest coal producer, with mines in thirty-two of the fifty States ani terri- tories, employing over 400,000 men, and turning out iast ycar over 292.000,000 tons of coal, valued at more than $350,000,000. Even as late as 1868 the coal mined in the United States amounted to but 32,000,000 tons against 115,500,000 in England yet in the year 1899 we passed that country in the race for the world’s supremacy, and stands to-day at the head of the list, producing not only more coal than any single country but about one-third of the world’s total product. The world’s production of coal in 1901 was about 870,000,000 tons of which the United States produced 292,000,000, Germany 165,000,000, and all the other countries 160,000,000. HOW COAL BEGAN, _ The story of the second carboniferons pe- riod is more easily told than that of the first. Its record was made by men now living, or those who immediately preceded them, while that of the first period is ouly written in the books of nature, and must be laboriously studied before its full mean- lng can be comprehended. Thousands of years ago, say the geologists, the atmos- phere and temperature of this, then com- paratively young planet, were especially favorable to the rapid growth of vegetation: trees, plants, ferns and mosses. The tem- perature of the earth itself was then much higher than to-day, and the atmosphere contained a much larger percentage of that food of plants, carbonic acid gas, so much fo, indeed, that air breathing animals did not exist, and those which obtained their oxygen from the water in which they lived were almost the only living creatures. Then vegetation flonrished as man has nev- er seen it flourish. The familiar “‘clab moss’’ which now seldom reaches three feet in height then attained fifty feet or more and with the trunk several feet in diameter The tiny ferns which we now admire so much for their delicacy, were then, palm- like trees and the common ‘“‘horsetail”’ of our bogs was in that day from fifty to one hundred times as large. Peat beds, whose formation from mosses and other vegetable matter is slowly going on before our eyes to-day, were much more readily and 1apid- ly developed then, and are now believed to have contributed largely to the vegetable matter which became coal. The magnifi- cent lepidodendron, the sphenopteris, the sigillaria, the calarmites, or the humble peat mosses heaped their leaves and branches and roots and finally their hodies layer up- on layer over the moist earth or in the wa- ter, in beds scores of feet in thickness,slow ly decaying and forming themselves into a solid mass of carbon which they had ex- tracted from the atmo:phere ip their growth. THE PROCESS. Tien by some mighty convulsion of na- ture or the gradual cooling or contracting of the fiery mass beneath, the surface which they occupied sank, the water from tne ocean poured in upon them, bringing sand and minute shells and drift, which covered them in layers many feet in thickness, and slowly hardening from the heat below and the pressure above, were turned into rock. On the top of this soil was formed new grounds of vegetation which again heaped up their riches of condensed carbon, which were in turn covered as the former musses had been, and so fitting the earth for the occupancy and comfort’ of man, went on. The masses of vegetable matter thus im- prisoned were gradually changed by heat and pressure into the article which we now know as coal; the moisture having been driven out by the intense heat from below and the pressure from above, and with it, more or less of the volatile gases. In most cases the solid mass thus created consisted of about fifty per cent. of volatile matter, and the remainder ash, water and sulphur. This is the class known as ‘‘bituminous coal,”” and it forms more than nine tenths of the coal of the world as far as is known. In some instances, however, great disturh- ances of the earth’s surface occurred and additional heat and pressure were applied to the coal, the volatile substances were driven out and there remained a dense, shining mass of almost pure carbon. a sub- stance which we now call anthracite, con- taining nearly 90 per cent. of pure carbon, 4 per -cent. of volatile matter, and the re- mainder ash, water, and a trace of sulphur. There are five great bituminous coal fields in the United States: First, a long and comparatively narrow strip lying on both sides of the Appalachian chain, stretch- ing southwardly from Northern, Pennsyl- vania and Eastern Ohio through West Vir- ginia, Maryland, Virginia, Eastern Ken- tucky and Tennesse to the centre of Alaba- ma; second, an egg shaped spot covering most of the state of Illinois and lapping over into Southwestern Indiana and North- western Kentucky ; third. an enormous area stretching northwardly from Central Texas and including parts of Texas, Arkansas, In- dian Territory, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska; fourth, the Rocky mountain field, including parts of New Mexico, Colo- rado, Montana, North Dakota, Utah and Wyoming ; fifth, a comparatively narrow strip or isolated spots on the Pacific coast. Iu addition to these there are several small detached beds in Michigan, Eastern Virgin- ia and North Carolina. The anthracite beds are principally located in Eastern Pennsylvania, and the area which they cov- er is less than 1 per cent, of that occupied by the bituminous fields, though the quan- tity of coal produced from them at present is over one fifth of that mined in the Unit- ed States, and its value more than one- third of the total. Small quantities of an- thracite are also mined in Colorado and New Mexico, but up to this time their total is insignificant when compared with that of the great anthracite region of Eastern Pennsylvania. The bituminous coal area of the United States is now estimated at nearly 200.000 square miles and the anthra- cite area at nearly 500 square miles. COAL MINING. The process by which coal i= mined, pre- pared for use and cariied to the market is interesting. As already indicated, an army of 400,000 men is engaged in this work, and during the years of 1898 to 1902 the mines have been worked up to their full capacity in supplying the enormous de- mand of the busy factories, railways, steam- ships and business establishments of the country, while the exports alone now amount to nearly $22,000,000 annually, against $6,000,000 in 1890. There are five methods of opening a coal mine. The first and simpliest is by strip- ping the earth where coal lies near the sar- face, though this is now practicable in but few cases; second, hy what is known as the “‘drifr,”’ the third by a “‘slope’’ the fourth by a ‘‘tunnel,’’ and the fifth by a ‘‘shaft.” The drift is merely an opening about 6 feet high 8 feet wide cut into the hillside at a point where the coal seam crops out or is only thinly covered by soil. This opening is “driven’’ (as the digging out is called) into the seam, making a small tunnel in the coal itself. It is begun at the very bot- tom of the seam aud its floor slopes gently upwards, so that the water of the mine will run out easily. Sometimes, however, it is not practicable to start the opening as low as the coal bed lies, and then the bottom of the drift must slope downward, and the water accumulates in an excavation made for that purpose atthe lowest part of the mine and is called a “‘sump’’ from which it is pumped out. This third prccess is called the ‘slope’ as distinguished from the ‘‘drift’’ explained above. The fourth process, the *"tunnel’”’ is that by which a tunnel is driven into the side of the hill or mountain through earth and rock un- til it reaches a coal seam lying handreds or perhaps thousands of feet from the spot at which it starts, but which has been accura- tely located by boring or other methods be- fore the tunnelling begins. The fifth sys- tem is the shaft. This is used when the coal is so located that it cannot he reached by stiipping, drifts, slopes or tunnels. The shaft is a rectavgular hole dug perpendicu- larly into the ground after the exact loca- tion of the coal-bed has been determined by boring and is usually ahout twelve feet wide and 18 or 20 feet long, with two sep- ate compartments, one of these being used for ascending cars and the other for those descending, while a third compartment is sometimes added for use as an air passage only. OUR GREAT COAL. The reason that this little spot in North- eastern Pennsylvania is permitted to fur- nish over one-fifth of the coal used in the United States is chiefly the superior quality of the coal, the facilities for handling, and the proximity of the great centres of popu- lation. Anthracite, as ahieady explained, consists of about 90 per cent. of carbon with scarcely any smoke or dust-producing matter, and is thus preferable for house- hold purposes, for general uses in the great cities and for railway engines attached to passenger trains. The facilities for its trans- portation add greatly to its advantages, as 95 per cent. of the anthracite mines are owned by railway companies or by mining companies operating railways in connec- tion with the mines, and these companies make a special study of coal transportation, building their roads; cars, engines and storage depots with a special view to this subject. Still another reason lies in the fact that, the densely populated Atlantic seaboard, whose trade they almost comn- mand by reason of proximity contains near- ly one-third of the population and manu- facturing industries of thecountry. On the other hand practically all of the bhitumin- ous mines are owned hy private individuals or companies which have no rail way sys- tems of their own, and thus the economies and conveniences of transportation and stor- age cannot he so advantageously controll- ed. Their coal labors under the disadvan- tage of unpopularity in great cities because of its smoke and soot, and it can be used in iron fainaces only after being turned to coke, by which the objectionable gases are drawn off, and the coke becomes very simi- lar to anthracite coal in purity of caihen. Yet, despite the advantages which anthra- cite has in location, quality and means of bandling, the bituminus, by reason of its plentiful supply. ease of mining,cheapuness, its usefulness in gas manufacture and the large territory over which it is scattered, is steadily geining in use, while anthracite is barely holding its own, bituminous having increased fiom 38.000,000 to over 200,000,- 000 tons from 1880 to 1901, while anthra- cite increased only from 25,000.000 to 59,- 000,000,000 tons in the same time. GETTING IT OUT. The methods by which the coal is brought to the surface through these entrances to the mines vary. In the drift, slope and tunuel, the little cars which ran on rail- way tracks laid on its floor and carry the coal are drawn by mules, except in those cases where the upward slope is too great and then wire ropes similar to those utiliz- ed for grip cars are used and operated by stationary engines. When the shaft is used the cars are run along the tracks in the mine until they reach the bottom of the shaft and are then hoisted to the sur- face by powerful machinery operated by engines at the top of the shaft, while the water is pumped out by the same method. The shafts are seldom used more than 300 or 400 feet deep in the bituminous region and frequently less than half that. In the anthracite region they are deeper, the deep- est, however, being but 1,600 feet, while those of Europe are frequently from 1,000 to 3,000 feet. The entrance to the coal seam having been completed, the mining begins. First a long tunnel or passage way 10 or 12 feet wide is driven along the bed of coal and a railway track laid in it for the use of the cars which are to carry the coal to the sur- face. Then other passage ways are cut at right angles to she first, extending out in- to the bed of coal, and the mining begins. An opening usnally known as a ‘‘room’’ or ‘‘chamber,’”” is cut into the coal, the width and length of the ‘‘room’’ thus ex- cavated being about 24 feet, but varying according to hardness of coal and roof, the coal thus cut being loaded upon caas which are drawn away by a patient mule. When the room has been excavated to the size de’ cided upon, another of the same size is be- gun, sufficiently far away to leave a wall or pillar of coal about 20 feet thick be- tween the two rooms, this huge coal pillar being necessary to support the mass of rock and earth above, and even this pro- vision is aided by timbers of wood set in the rooms themselves. MACHINERY’S SHARE. Machinery now performs much of the work formerly accomplished only by the hands of men and boys, and in European countries by women and girls. All of the assorting and even a considerable share of the removal of stone and slate are now performed by, machinery of a comparative- ly simple character. In the bituminous mines, machines are now used for ‘‘undercutting,’’ and cut- ting out the coal. They are operated by compressed air and in some cases by elec- tricity. By their aid a man aud his *‘help- er’? will mine from twenty to thirty tons per day. Some of these machines utilize a pick which is driven against the wall of coal at the rate of 200 blows per minute; others have an endless cutting chain run- ning on the end of an arm which is pushed against the wall of coal and the coal sawn into convenient sizes for removal. The use of machines in bituminous mines bas increased rapidly, about oue-fourth of the bituminous coal produced in 1901 being mined by machines. Their use in the anthracite mines has not up to the present time been fonud prac- ticable, owing to the greater hardness of the coal and the fact that anthracite beds do not lie in a horizontal position, the seams having been in most cases titled up by a convulsion of the earth’s surface. . Modern machinery has already greatly re- duced the discomforts and the actual dan- ger of the miner. Many mines are now he- ing lighted by electricity, while the power- ful revolving fans by which foul air and gases are driven out and fresh air forced in have reduced the danger of explosion, and at the same time removed oue of the causes which endangered the health and shorten- ed the life of the miner. Chinese Coal Ficlds. William Barclay Parsons, a civil engi- neer, has made a journey through the previnece of Hu-Nan, and therefore has bad an excellent opportunity for examining the vast coal deposits there, which, it is said, are the greatest and richest coal fields in the world and contain enough of the min- eral to supply the world for several cen- turies. The coal measures begin at some point near Siangtan, a large city on the Siang river, about thirty miles south of Changsha. They extend easterly to the boundary between Hu-Nan and Kiang Si westerly for an unknown distance. The greater part of Hu-Nan coal is anthracite, and, as the natives prefer to burn what they call nonsmoky coal in their chimney- less houses, no large effort has been made until recently to explore the bituminous deposits. > The great cecal field of Hu-Nan, which has made the province famous, is the Leibo field, which extends southerly from the junction of the Lei and Siang rivers and covers the Lei valley. This coal, being easily mined and having water transporta- tion facilities at hand, has been worked for a great many years and has found its way to all points, not only in the Siang valley, but along the Yangtse as far as Shaughai. As it has been chiefly anthracite, the term Hu-Nan coal has hecome synonymous. with that variety, and it is likely that coals that have come from other parts have heen and are sold under the trade name of ‘‘Hu-Nan coal.”’” The Hun-Nan coal field ix very ex- tensive and contains an enormous tonage of coal of diffevent varieties. It needscare- ful, thorough and systematic exploration with a diamond drill, for itis probable, that the most valuable deposits will be fonnd below the surface, where they may be more compact. He Had One Question. Professor Brackett, of Princeton, was once holding an oral examination in physies. The mem before him had all failed once, and he was giving them a seo- ond chance. One man seemed unable to answer cor- rectly a single question, and as he was a senior, ahout to be graduated if he passed this examination, the professor felt sorry for him, says the New York Times. ‘‘Perbaps some of you would like to ask me a few questions in physics,”’ he said. ‘Questions often evince as much knowl- edge of the subject as answers reveal,’’ There was silence for a moment, and then the senior spoke up. “I’d like to ask a question, Professor.” “Ah?” returned the Professor, plainly showing his relief and pleasure. ‘‘What is the question ?’’ ‘‘Are we through, sir?” Summary of Outrages. A list of the different phases of violence since the strike began in the anthracite coal region is as follow, the list including only the most aggravated cases : Killed, 14; severely injured, 42; shot from ambush, 16; aggravated assaults, 67; attempts to lynch, 1; houses dynamited, 12; houses burned, 3; buildings burned, 10; washeries burned, 3; stockades bnrned, 2 riots, 69; works dynamited, 6; trains dynamited, 1; railroad bridges dynamited, 4; railioads seized, 5; trains wrecked, 6 at- tempted wrecks, 9; trains attacked, 7; strikes in schools 14. ‘‘Nellie says she’s only twenty ove,” said the floorwalker; ‘‘I imagined she must be at least twenty eight.” ‘So she was,’’ replied the jealous maid, who presided over the ribbon counter, ‘‘bus you know cverything was marked down twenty-five per cent last week.’’—Chicago News.

The published statement of some stran- ger residing in the faraway place may be true enough, but it is generally accepted as a doubtful rnmor. How can it be ver- tified! The testimony which follows is convincing proof because it comes from a resident of Bellefonte. Mrs. F.

TI had taken ‘so many kinds and so many pre- scriptions without one preceptible gain that I was unprepared for the immediate improvement, I received from taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. Iread statements about Bellefonte people who had heen cured by their use and I got them at F. Potts Green’s drug store. After taking them I felt so well that I walked down town with my husband, something I had not done for two years.
