From the Virginia Enterprise. July 31.l
SINCEthey lost their drill, about a
Month ago. by its coming Oft the stem
N hole which had been boreI to =
Ireat deEth, General Williams and
onpany have done no work on the
haft they are engaged in sinking in
he eastern suburbs of the city: Now,
however, they have purchased new
rlll and will shortly resume boring.
They have but one other hole to drlIl,
Ehen they will begin the work OF
Tasting. The holes have been bored
such shape as to mark the out
ines of a large shaft. By charging
(hese holes with giant pOwLer or nj
ro-glycerine and firing them all at
pnce by means Of electricity, great ex-
ecution can be done. In blasting, all
|he holes will first be filled with
Pand. When a blast is to be put in,
IBIS sand will be scooped out to the
repth of ten or twelve feet, or what
Ess depth is Thought best when the IN,
Eharge will be put in and exploded.
Inc prospects obtained from the sew,
raj holes drilled are sufficiently Rood
warrant the outlay that will be re-
uired for sinking = large shaft. Al
Ier another hole shall have been
urllled the machine will probably De
ent to Mexico, to parties there who
aeslre to purchase it.
LAST evening about 8 o'clock Rich
rd +. PeyiOn, who has been for a
E9ng time marker and bookkeeper at
halls Pioneer Laundry, made his es.
ape from the County Hospital, and
last accounts had not been found
ne had been in the hospital for some
uays with brain fever and was dellrl-
guS at the time he made his escape
ast before he disappeared he put on
nis coat and said to some one that Ire
was going to New York. Men were
seht out in all directions in search OF
Ilm. 1t is feared that he may fall
INTO some old abandoned shaft or
perish.
