Railroad Officials Hold Conferences With Coal Managers Here Monday Showers ColDsii Arthur Puows and her small daughter, Donna were severly injured last Sunday when the car in which they were driving was struck by a Ford bug. Little Donna was injured more than the other passangers and as a result was confined at the Delta Hospital where six stitches were necessary to sew up the wound in her head. Bad scratches and bruises are the extent of the injuries of Mrs. Prows, while the other three of the party were lucky enough ' to escape injuries. The accident happened on the graveled road between McCormick and Delta Sunday at 12:15. Mr. and Mrs. Artuhr Prows and baby, together with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Prows were going north, when a Ford bug driven by Miss Denise Clark and her companion Mary Memmott, came along and not being used to driving cars struck the Prows car at the front, damaging it severly and injuring Mrs. Prows and baby, who were sitting in the front seat. Shortly after the accident, Mose Whiticar passed and took the injured to the Delta hospital. In his efforts to hurry, the engine of his car froze and they were compelled to remain on the road until Mr. Bushes came and took them to the hospital. Both were given first aid treatment and by Monday morning they had recovered sufficiently from the accident and were able to return home. Mr. Prows states he could see the car coming at a high speed, and thinking it was some drunken boys had slowed down to about eight miles an hour when the other car struck them. The girls just coming from ken, (the car Sunday "sclhool, Jiad which N belonged to Will Gledhill of McCormick, and not being used to driving become excited and lost of the machine which proved to both parties.

We like the looks o I this section and believe that in time Salina will be one of the busy places along our branch. General Manager Lewis for the Sevier Valley Coal company wore a smile of satisfaction when he stated that work would be started very shortly on the building of the branch line. You can say that things are looking mighty rosy and that within a few weeks, or maybe less, the work of building the brfflfth ujr icr the mines will be started and that a payroll for the summer will be one of the added features for Salina- It was stated that President Pey-atof the Denver and Rio Grande was expected to be in Salt Lake shortly after the first of May and at that time something definite would be given out for publication. Conferences are to be held in Denver this month and likely something definite will be arrived at. General manager II. E. Lewis, who recently made a trip of inspection to his coal properties in Salina Canyon, reports splendid progress 'being made. The shaft, which is the largest of its kind in the state, has attained a depth of 40 feet and good progress is being made daily. The shaft is about 20x20 and will have three compartments. Tuesday work was started cementing the entire shaft to a depth of forty feet. The cementing will be carried on as depth is attained, it being the intention of the management to make it subtsan-tia- l and ever lasting. At the present time only one shift is working and approximately two feet is being sunk every day. It is intended to sink the shaft to a depth of 180 feet before this part of the development ceases. The big coal vein will be cut at the 165 foot level is completed and after the sump and a station is cut at the coal vein, extraction on a big scale will start.. te "I Inspect Canyon Mines II. E. Lewis, the enthuiastic booster of the resources of this section of country highly entertained Mrs, J. Oscar Anderson, Mrs. A. S. Crane, Miss Mary McCallum, and Miss Stena Scorup on, a tour to the coal mines of Salina canyon on Saturday April 18th. The party left Salinafat 9:30 and made frequent stops and detours while Mr. Lewis explained the geology of the different strata of rock. At one oclock a sumptuous dinner was served to the ladies at the dinning room of the Sevier Coal company, after which Mr. Lewis showed them all the mysteries and prospects of the Sevier Coal Mine. The party then motored to the Salina Canyon Coal Mine returning home at 6 p. m.
