John Kingston, a young miner of Ehren
ld, died at midnight Sunday night at the
Memorial hospital, at Johnstown, the re-
u 1 1 of falling under a train near Mineral
Point on Saturday night.
That evening Kingston and a companion
named Callahan, attended a dance at
Lilly, and, not wishing lo stay in the
place all night, started back to Ehren
feld on a freight train. When the train
reached Mineral Point, and was run
ning at a high rale of speed, Callahan
jumped off, and, beside havit g the breath
knocked out of him tor a moment or two.
was badly bruised by his sudden contact
with t he ground. Kingston attempted to
follow the example of his companion, but
it is supposed, his fool caught in the stir
rup, for he was thrown under the w heels
of the cars and the train passed over his
owrr limbs.
After Callahan had recovered from his
dazed condition, he walked nearly half a
mile before finding help and when he had
gotten back to the si-ene of the accident
his injured companion had dragged him-
ell quite a distance along the roadbed.
As soon as possible Kingston was brought
to Johnstown and conveyed to the Me
morial hospital, where Dr. W. D. Lowman
rendered him all the surgical and medical
aid possible, but it was without avail.
Kingston was 23 years of age. The
father and mother went to Johnstown
Sunday morning and accompanied the re
mains of the deceased home on Monday.
after they had been prepared for burial.
Interment was made at Ehrenfeld on
Tuesday.

Johnstown Tribune.
Sik: Being interested in the industries
of Cambria county, and especially those
that pertain to mining, I have watched
and noted with pleasure the extension of
railroad lines and all forms of progress
and development. Having some little
knowledge of the advantages made along
the lines of the coal industries, 1 thought
it might be of interest to your readers to
jot down for their consideiation a few
facts .hat I have gathered in this connec
lion. It has been well claimed in this age
of steam that the wealth of a civilization
is largf ly the extent of the development of
its coal fields. This being true of coun
tries, is also true of states and counties,
l am pleased to repji t that our moun
tainous linle Cambria is raising her head
high in the matter of coal production. I
might state here, too, that, in the opinion
of all. the coal which we are sending into
the niatkels of the world is second to none
in quality for steam purposes; and w hat
is now mined in Cambria county, is not
taken from a single seam, or lied, hut is
miued at several points, from four differ
ent seams. This fact is stated to show
that we have at least that many workable
seams of excellent quality in Dur coal-bear
ing strata.
In the year 1SS5 the coal production of
Cambria county was l.lM9,itl tons; the
average number of days worked in the
year was 252; number of persons employed
ls;s. The production for 195 was about
4.(xx.ux tons, with an average of only 1S9
days worked, whicti shows that if the
same average of days had been worked in
is.i5 as in 1SS5. the production would be
over $r.,ix,(io tons. It shows that the
capacity of the mines, if working full, is
over 7,(xx,(x tons a year. We use the
figures indicating millions, little thinking
what vast amounts they represent. Tak
ing the actual production of our county
for ism-4.fiixj,(x tons it represents I4,0iX)
railroad cars of 25 tons capacity each, or
7,:t"xi trains of 25 cars each, which would
be about 24 trail. s of coal for each ot the
312 working days in the year. It also
means by the advance taking place on the
first of April, of live cents a ton, the sum
of $275.xxi for the 7,tiixi employes working
in and about the mines of our county.
It may also be of interest to slate that
safety of our mines stands very high
even among the best and safest mines in
the world that we have any record of.
There was about 575,xxi tons of coal mined
for each fatal accident Juricg 1s;j5 and
and nearly one thousand men employed,
also, per each fatal accident. This is an
unusual high percentage of safety for our
nii nes, the credit of which I attribute to
tlie special care and precaution that was
practiced by the miners and the mine fore
men of this district during the past year,
as a great number of the accidents gener
ally occurring in the mines are from care
lessness aud a lack of proper precaution
being taken.
The bituminous Coal Association recent
ly formed by the operators of the six dif
ferent coal fields of the state which ship to
the sea board, I expect will lie a special
advantage to our county, as almost the
entire product of our mines is shipped to
tidewater. This association will be able
to control the selling price of coal in the
markets and thereby get a fair price for
their product, thus enabling the operators
to pay belter wages to the miners for the'r
work.
