the Y*™ hemp. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 14. ISK The Pennsylvania or the West.— Over 4,000 acres of coal lauds have been located by the Northern Pacific railroad company and private individuals in the Natchees and Oowlits coal fields. Prof. Heooek, formerly superintendent of the Belling ham Bay coal mines and late territorial coal inspector, arrived in North Yakima last Saturday evening with a large force of prospectors, all of whom give glowing reports of their discoveries. The party located one ledge of anthracite coal which measured seventeen feet six inches in depth on the face. Only think of it! A mine of lhat depth has never been known before in this section of the country, sad it gives promise of incalculable supplies, and that, too. of coal superior to any now mined. Is it strange that Yakima feels assured of another road through the Natchees pass with the mines of coal, silver, gold, plumbago, mineral paint and with the quarries of limestone and the virgin forsata of magnificent timber, and an easy grade to tempt the railroad builder? Some of the finds of coel have been critically examined by the N. P. company’s mineralogist, and be pro nounces it a superior quality of semi-an thracite. Certainly, with the showing already made—and there is much yet to be discovered—Washington can appro priately lay claim to the title of the Penn sylvania of the West. Pmrr Appearance or McKee Rahein. —‘The Runaway Wife,’* a purely domes tic drama written by McKee Rankin, will be produced by that eminent actor, sup ported by an exceptionally strong com pany, at the opera boose next Tuesday evening, November 10.

Mr. Rankin will be sup ported by Miss Mabel Bert, late leading lady of the California theatre, a hand some woman and a talented artiste. The same care will be given to the perform ance and staging of “The Runaway Wife’’ here in North Yakima os marked its suo- CMsful engagement in San Francisco re cently.

A Mountain or Minesal Paint.—How ard Carr returned last week from the Natchees country for suppliee, bringing with him some very good specimens of silver bearing quarts, and what Mr. Carr, who is a painter by profession, pro nounced to be mineral paint of the purest character.
