I fan arrangement could be made so that Onio would bold her lair f'.rsl, Indiana second, Illinois,

FO as to conflict with her. We have done so for the last two years, and I know that hundreds of exhibitors am! visitors have "one to St. I.ouis from western Indiana and eastern Illinois, that would have been with us if our time had been different."

Coal Operations In Clay County. From the l',ra?.t| .Manufacturer and Miner. As nearly as we have been able to compute from the shipping registers of our various mines, the shipments of coal du-

t72,,"i(lu tons, or 7,".00,000 busli-

||UV(. {,,.(1, (.•onsumed bv the two fur-

ions have been consumed by the two furnaces and rolling mill at ICnightsville, making a total of H!I0,000 tons, or 11,240,000 bushels. The capita] invested in coal mines can not fall much short of a million of dollars. There are employed. in the district about 1,000 miners, the. aggregate monthly wages of whom amount to ?."•(),000," or more than half a million during the year. In addition to this, wc have five blast furnaces and a rolling mill, representing an invested capital of half a million dollar*, and consuming, when in operation, as they all are now, except one, nearly 1100 tons of coal per day, or 100,0(10 tons per year.

During the present year it is not extravagant to predict tluit our coal product will be double tttht of last. The North & South Kailroad will soon give us a new line to Chicago, and the rolling stock on the roads already in operation will be largely increased to'meet the growing demaiul'of the trade. Our furnaces are ill blast again, and it is not improbable that several new ones will be added to their number during the year. During the month of December' there were billed from the freight oflice J,oC0 cars ol coal,, equal to :in,7jtl tons.

Forty years ago, Illinois, was as far West as mos». people wished to go, and journeys were made in the legendary "Prairie Schooner," but in these days of progress and improvement, the word West, lias come to mean Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, California and the Territories, and the traveler reaches almost any point therein by a splendid line of railroad.

Thisline of railroad is ihe Burlington route, which starts from Indianapolis over the Indianapolis, lllooinington & Western Short Line, and from Logansport over the Toledo, l'eoria & Warsaw Railroad, and running through Burlington reaches Omaha, Lincoln, Nebraska Citv, St, Joseph, Atchison, Leavenworth and Kansas City, connecting with the Union Pacific, Kansas City, and other railroads running from those cities.
