ENCOURAGING NEWS.

From Shnmoklu Dispatth.
Iu speaking with a well-known mining
olllcial this afternoon a Dispatch man was in
formed that tho prospects aro good for mak
ing bettor time at tho collieries, commencing
in a very short time and not likoly to be
later than Juno 1st, At least fuur days u
week will bo tho order and probably more.
'In fact," tho official said, thoro is now a
good demand fur our coal in the eastern
market. The war lias no doubt Interfered
considerably with tho coal tiuiie, as five
of the Heading company's colliers aro now
employed by tho government, and tho in
surance companies either cbargo exorbitant
rates, or refuse entirely to accept responsi
bilities. Tho destruction of tbo Spanish tleet
in our waters, or tho chasing of the enemy's
boats back to foreign wators would greatly
aid matters. Huwevcr, whether this occurs
or not, better times can ho looked for soon
and it would not surpriso mo if orders for
more work would ho received within the
next weok."
Tho Dispatch is pleased to furnish the
above encouraging news and assure our
readers that it comes from tlio most reliable
source It Is only hoped that tho Increase, I
work will bo realized and tho sooner tbo
better, for truly thoso lmvo beoa most trying
times to our people and they havo long de

COAT. FOP. WARSHIPS.
"Tho main objection to tho uso of antbra
