The shekel of the ancient Hebrews was fiist coined in 141 B.C.

The first and only human imprint ever found in anthracite coal was uncovered by Michael Siucavage, a miner at the Eagle Hill colliery, near Pottsvillc, Pa., the imprint of a "man's foot.' Fossils, of snakes, ferns, etc., have been plentiful, but this is the fiist evidence that prehistoric man was in existence in this country during the formation of the coal beds. -The imprint, 4it is estimated, must have been"made 10,000 yearsago: Sincavage,-not,appreciating the value of his find/dumped it in an ordinary coal wagon after he had '"shown it to his fellow miners. '��� The first hydraulic mining of which there is .an authentic record was at Yankee Jim's, a placer camp in Placer county," Cal:, about * three miles west of Forest Hill. - A ditch was dug'along'the hillside and from th'is a flu me *-'was built 'outward to-f ward a small ravine, where the mine had been opened. ' This flume-was carried out until it had reached a point thirty feet above the'-ground.' Here the water poured into a barrel, \o the bottom of which was attached a hose or "pipe" of rawhide." "The nozzle was a'tin pipe about four feet long aiid shaped 'like an ordinary horn, having an opening one, inch in diameter at the end. With this Ismail and simple apparatus"E. E.

It appears he met a superannuated body snatcher, who struck him in the stomach with a pork sausage, "causing him to have an attack of the collywobbles, and an old lady who witnessed the above outrage was so horrified that she fell down and struck her head against a feather bolster, causing a wound four feet deep, which bled so much that it washed an elephant into a ditch and drowned a dog that wasn't there.
