Here they continue until they break

as the higher level is struck and the

retreat to the next chamber blasting

Upon being received at the surface the
precious earth is automatically con-

consist Of acres and acres OF smooth,
hard grornd. Here It is spread 10 a
depth OF not exceeding ten inches and
allowed to remain from three to six
months. according to the rapidity with
which it disintegrates During this
period it is turned over occasionally by

This method OF handling the stun
is being superseded by mechanical as

grease, All material other than the
diamonds passes from one shelf to an
other. The diamonds alone stick to the
grease.
One Of the safeguards against theft
is the engagement OF all employees for
a period OF three months, during which
time they are kept under close guard
and when not at work are confined
within a large compound surrounded
by several nigh fences, the edges Of
which are covered with fine net, thus
preventing anything from being
thrown outside.
"A central store Is located in the com
pound, where all necessaries can be
purchased at a very reasonable cost.
The men depart for and return to
work through long subterranean
passage leading from the compound to
the mines.
On the extensive drying floors,
which are encircled by a barbed wire
fence, high towers are located where
guards are posted and from which
powerful searchlights operate at night.
Even with these precautions the en-
ployes are searched every evening
when returning from work, each one
undressing and hanging his clothes
upon pegs. The clothes are carefully
examined while the laborers then pro
