The city, some 1S.00O popu lation. Is beautifully situated: l mod rrn In Its aj-pects, lighted by elcctrblty and hn an ample tmlley ear system that runs In every direction fioni a central point. "In tho vlclnlly of llazletuti there me Feveral largo collieries operating In the Mammoth vtln, both by a process called stripping and by slope. The for mer Is of particular Interest, us coal Is found by removing a few feet of earth and mining thus done from the sur face, one of these collleiles Is that of the A. S. Van Wlclde estate nt .Mllnes vllle, the output of whli li goes to t'uxo Tiros. & t'o. This stripping has been In operation for nine .veins and as a lesult of so much blasting ami plckltft ;nd carting nwuy we see n cavity L',300 feet long, con iVet wide ami an aver ago of over "00 feet deep c':i."i In ptacs), in tho bottom of whlcli men are still digging. si:i:m i.ikk mitks. ".Standing on the brink of this chaMii .1 tenderfoot Is m-IzpiI by mi nttuck of dizziness as he tries to pick out with naked ee the moving mites at the other etui of the pit. whlcli .lohn Hur v.jy, the siipeiintetuient. tells us nie men and mules. Now and then a car, coal laden, will be sow cooping ti)i the smooth surface of the loik. thus hauled by cable to tho top. It Is cli mated that out of this snipping hae been taken ".UOO.OOrt cubic yards of i-lny and rock and about l.rtoO.Ooo riw tons of coal. The .Maiiinioth vein at this point bai an average of about forty feet In thickness, but In places it runs eighty or even 100 feet In thickness. Thiw concern Is als-o working the Wharton vein, which lays Immediately under the Mammoth. "Wo are told the l.elileh valley Is working the Stciling, the I'ai ker. Orch ard and Primrose, all overlaying the Mammoth at their point of operation. Tnder tho Mammoth vein are the Wharton, (lamina and Itink Mountain veins. The Mlluesville colliery lias practically nothing aboe the Mam moth, but the l.ehlgh has both those mentioned above and below. Thus It will be seen that the Mammoth vein, which practically crops out here, dips southward, and at Pottsvllle is said to bo SOO or 1 ,0ao feet below the surfiue. At short Intervals us we stand on this precipice the noise of blasting, with powder or dynamite, fiom this woik ing and that of the adjoining one of Calvin Pardee A: 'o.. is not unlike that of artillery. Hetween those two ship pings Is lu-lng left a huge pillar of coal; this In observance of the law. A C'.ItKAT HOI'LDKl:. "Mr. Harvey pointed out a gigantic boulder lalng at th- bottom of the Hit, whlcli had dropped from a posi tion 2,",0 feet above. This stone looked comparatively Mnall fiom where wo Hood, but Its actual measurement! are ulxSlxlf. feet, and Its weight about 1..VJ0 tons. Coal from the Mammoth vein in the l.ehlgh region is always considered of superior quality; It Is of long frac ture and is claimed to ciintain a greater per cent, of carbon. The Calvin Pardee & Co. colliery at IUtiiiier. near Mlluesville, N an exten sive plant with a dally capacity of about 1,-uO gross tons. The seam of conl runs cast ami wet. and In this basin rises at the eastern and western boundary, forming about I'.ouo feet of coal between thee boundaries. Super intendent A.W. Diake Ahowed us about tin entire plan.. There arc at this time seven steam shovels at work re moving the surface from the coal, or stripping it. This process Is. of course, similar to cutting through an embank ment for a railroad At the points vis ited the coal lays but a few feet below th" surface, so that tin miner mav neio pursue ms voeiuion liy daylight without the aid of his lamp. He has no use fnr the fan ventilator here, as tho mountain breezes furnish liln; air. Km mj tamer time one would surmise thii to bo it desirable location for a miner, but III the extreme weather of winter it may not be as comfortable u berth as underground. The rock and clay surface icmoved from the top of th'n. coal Is hauled by cable up an Incline, where a small shining engine takes It and distributes. THK STHAM sri'Pl.V. "Running about this plant are thous ands of feet of six-lncli pipe, through which' steam is supplied to operate the various pumps and plane engines nnd for working the machinery, heating offices, etc In the boiler hoilso are three horizontal return tubular and twenty cylinder boilers. The breaker of tho plant la fully one and one-half miiea from the northeast basin; this, however, is tho longest haul. There aro about SOO operatives at this plant, and tho samo number nt tho Pardee colliery at Hnrwood, also near Unzle ton Mr. Drako tells us lie lias Just completed a now slopo tit l.attlmer which will soon bo In operation. "Tho plant of this company at liar wood Is said to be modern In every respect, with tho Dodgo continuous rope transmission system. It has the conveyor system of carrying coal up an Incline to the head of the breaker. This latter Is said to furnish nn even sup ply of conl and avoid 'rushes.' Tho coal is brought up tho slope In cars in the usual way by hoisting engines and dumped into the conveyor by means of a patent tipple, which auto matlcnlly dumps and rctuniB the cars to a siding ready to be hauled hack to tho mine. Tho conveyor Is fed from five slopes located at different points on tho ioo acres. "Two locomotives are required to handle the cars, tho automatic dump having capacity of four cars per min ute, each car averaging 1.71 tons. A tunnel underneath the floor provides for dumping ashes Into cars direct, thus avoiding the use of it shovel, The dynamos and air compressor nro locat ed between tho breaker and boiler house. "Compressed air Is carried to the well through 4,000 feet of two and one-half-lneh pipe nnd water brought back through an equal length of live-Inch pipe. The pneumatic pumping outfit displaces a night and day fireman and a team for hauling coal. The breaker Is lighted by electricity and heated by steam," INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS. Car Builders' Held ft Meeting Last Night, hut Nothing of Impor tance Was Done, The striking car builders met last night at Kconomy hall In regular ses sion and conducted an amount of rout ine business. Nothing was done with reference to tho dropping of tho In junction proceedings. it Is likely that another meeting will Ve called for tomorrow or Saturday, nt which the men will be formally made acquainted with the company'n action.
