The Curson Coal & Navigation Company have purchased the Wall coal property on Isthmus slough, and active work in the development of the mine will be commenced immediately. Messrs. Curson and Maxwell are heavy stockholders in the company and have a good market for the output of the mine. We are assured that the sinking of the shaft at Coos City will not be delayed on account of the purchase of the Wall property, but that work will be pushed as rapidly as possible. On the land just purchased two veins of coal have already been opened, which will aid the company considerably in the rapid development of the mine, and it is reasonable to assume that shipments will be made in the not far distant future. Messrs. Maxwell & Curson have had much previous experience in coal mining in which they have been very successful, and there is no reason to doubt that their investment here will prove profitable to them and to this section of the country generally. + Utility name MPE (a-a) Oct 11, 190l Fred Schetter, the Empire telephone man in MP this wk not q.

The coal is harder and superior in every way to any coal ever mined in Oregon heretofore, and the roof and floor are reasonably good. This will be one of the largest mines on the Pacific coast when fully developed, and will demonstrate to the satisfaction of all, that great fields of coal can be worked extensively and profitably in Coos county, when capable and economical management are exercised. + = Misc-tale animal locale wilderness MPE (a-b) Oct 18, 1901 Mrs Gibbs, an old lady who lives near Eckley, had an experience this week which no doubt she will not soon forget.

She had got some distance along the trail when she became lost, wandering aimlessly about until night. Not finding her way out at nightfall she dismounted from her horse and put in the night alone in the mountains without even a fire to protect her from the cold. When morning arrived she was unable to find her horse and started out a foot still not knowing in which direction she was going. L. W. Deyoe of this place and Seldon Warner who were out hunting met her on the trail and to them she told her story and informed them where she thought the horse could be found.
