perfect hurricane blew all the day, with an
accompaniment of duslstorms. consequently
the curly locks Of Agent Gibson were laden
and duIled with particles Of fine sand, and
the silvery hair Of Agent Brooks had grad
ually assumed pepper and salty aspect.
Both took the d seomforts of the situation

blended with yellow coloring matter. and
dried out into dull gray, which was stated
TO be additional proof that Quicksand was
present.
Then work came TO a stop, so far rs sink

the plpes as quickly as it could be pumped
out, and then quicker, ana eight feet were
soon lost. The disadvantage was gradually
overcome. however. and when work ceased
