The Pittsburg Coal company established a new high record for opea shop production in the week ended January 8th, when 115,784 tuna were mined. The average number of men hundred and at work wa.s fifty-foforty, which is al-- o a high record. The ojen shop cqieretion was made on last Friday with an output of 5440 tuns. H. E.

Kinney Coal company haa turned back its lease of coal land and houses to the Union Iacifie people. He says there is plenty of snow in the hills this to more than fill the big Horsley reservoir to its capacity and much to spare. The weekly estimate of bituminous production, prepared by the National Coal association on January 11th, shows a prompt recovery from the slowing up of operations during the The estimated tonholiday season. the week ended mined during nage January 8A is given as 13,300,000 net tons, whirh is about equal to the output during the corresponding week of a year ago, when production was at a very high level. Probably the last piece of land purchased outright for the mining of coal has been paid for at the Sailt Lake City land office. Henry M. Wallace and John M. Wallace paid approximately $25,000 to Eli F. Taylor, local register, last week. It was acquired prior to the leasing act of 1920, when a citizen eould purchase the property if he thought it worth $125 an acre. The Wallaces bought 197.18 acres. The land is located in Sees. 18 and 19, Twp. 13 South, Range 9 East. One thousand and eighty aeres of coal laud in Satina Canyon were leased to the Boston Acme Coal Mines Development company 4ust week at the Salt Lake City land office. The lease van made alter bn auction had been set for it upon the application of the development company. There were no oilier bidders. Uncle Sam requires that the lessee pay a royalty of ten cent a ton and invest $75,000 in the properties and, show a production of thirty thousand ton during the fourth year. Excluding the abnormal war years of 1917 and 1918 and the strike ones of 1922 anil 1925, the average annual production of anthracite since and including 1911, has amounted in round figure to 79,790,000 gross tons, and including the abnormal and year, the average annual production since 1911, a period of fifteen year, i 76,832,000 gross tons, a figure which the output in 192G very closely approximate, despite a strike which was the longest in one' on record.

But Martha was thinking of Samuel 8 ter-- . ens. Samuel Stevens was the youngest of the young lawyers who frequented the old law offices at which Martha Samwas employed as stenographer. uel had a rambling sort of gait and no knack at dressing. Not a very favorable presence for a lawyer, but with the rare ability that indicates success. That morning Samuel had somewhat falterlnglj asked Martha to go to an Important football game that afternoon, and with her dainty head held rather high Martha had declined the Invitation. Samuel, looking decidedly hurt and embarrassed, had mumbled out something to the effect that he asked her only because he happened to have the tickets and It seemed a shame to waste them. Martha felt a species of annoyance at this rather ungallant speech. Also she felt annoyance with herself for having declined the Invitation so heartlessly. Driving home, as she saw the cars bearing toward her carrying overcoated men and fur-cla-d women obviously going to the great game, she felt a quick eagerness to be one of them. She saw again the confused, hurt expression on Samuel's plain face. But she did not see approaching behind her on the car track to the left the "fast line trolley." Her mirror reflected the trolley well enough, but Molly was too preoccupied with thoughts of Ramuel to look at that Important little reflector. Then suddenly she did see ahead of her a break In the pavement A sharp turn to the left occurred to her as the beet way out of her difficulty and as she turned she chanced to look at the mirror, and there bearing heavily and rapidly upon her at the back was the dark form of the fast-lin- e trolley. Martha put on her brake quickly, felt a sickening Jolt, heard breaking glass and grating metal and then shot her eyes and waited. .When she opened them In a second the peril seemed to have passed but ah trembled on the verge of fainting and dared not slip from her seat "I couldn't stop on a teu-cepiece," the motorman told her.

"But I'm very much obliged to you for doing what yon did." Meanwhile men were shoving and lifting her little car away from the front of the trolley. "Windows broken and she's kind of stove In," remarked one man with a grin, "bat I guess she'll go. Fool's luck ain't And the conductor none too courteously was asking Martha to produce her license. Then Martha felt a strong, steady hand upon her arm. "Excuse me," said clear vofee beside her, "but I happen to be tills lady's lawyer." Martha looked and saw the calm, strong fnce of Samuel Stevens. He seated her again at the wheel, took the number of the trolley car and hi parting shook hands with the motor-mastrong-arme- i or a flying (Continued From Face 8ix) E i v U, ug, MMMWM Vi d itr n. He had been going home on the trolley when the nccldcut occurred not caring to go to the game without her. Passengers piled back Into the trolley which was soon rolling rapidly on. Then Martha pressed forward her own light car. and breutlicd a sigh of deep relief to know that Samuel was at tier side. "I saw It all," said he, "and have the names of witnesses.

Ill attend to that Of course you ought not to have turned to the left that way." "I know It" said Martha, "but I wasn't thinking that Is, I wasnt thinking of the road or anything. I was Just thinking of you." Then suddenly Martha felt very weak and exhausted. She drew her car to the right out of traffic and stopped. "I cant drive any more Just now," she said, and then she felt the enormous satisfaction of retting her head against Samuel's shoulder and shedding tears on his rough coat while without the slightest hesitation or embarrassment Samuel's strong arm encircled her. "Dont cry, Martha dear," he was saying. "Youve been o good to me," said Martha, "and I was so horrid." "Ive only don what any man would have done for Cor any woman," said SamueL "But I wish I could havs chme a lot more. Because I love yon. I ought not to tell you, perhaps, but God knows how hard It to not to." Martha, forgetting that It was still broad daylight and that they were on a busy highway, bent over toward Samuel, turned hla foe to her with her hands and klsaed him. "Samuel, dearest, I love you, love you, love you." Samuel told Martha she was an angel and that he was the happiest man In the world and no doubt he was. Then taking the wheel seat be said he would hurry her home. "But I don't want to go home, said Martha. "I want to go to the game.

Bdr-r-y, and a host of aeronautical engineers may revolutionize commercial flying by the new blower system involved. It is believed that by the appliance of the blower system the elimination of air resistance has been accomplished, thereby solving one of the world's most intricate aeronautical problems. It is further thought by the inventor that the blower system converts the air resistance into forward energy by displacement of the air, enabling the ship to proceed with high speed in .the teeth of any high winds. The inventor claims a speed of six hundred miles an hour can be attained. The picture shows Berry with two models of his ship.
