COLEMAN. Like many of the best citizens of the county, Mr. Coleman has spent the principal part of his days engaged in mining and is at present the superintendent of McCabe mine, which he assumed charge of in August, 1894. He is eminently the type of the progressive American citizen, has pushed his undertakings to a satisfactory issue, and has met with a fair share of success. He is a civil engineer of note and a graduate of Notre Dame. In 1887 he came to Arizona and became foreman of the Silver King mine in July, 1888. Previous to becoming foreman of Silver King mine he was engaged as foreman in the mines around Silver City, New Mexico. As stated, he became superintendent of McCabe mine in August, 1894, and has had entire charge of that property since that time. He is a wide-awake, thorough man of affairs and has many friends among the best citizens of the county.
