Obviously proud of her always devoted and kind

the loss Of Mauro remained TO her an ever gnawing
grief
ODDLY enough Fate decreed that the destiny of

from their burning Utreran plains high up on the
cool plateau of Central Mexico.
For several wears most generous offers had been
made FL Iigre TO bring his troupe to Mexico; but

Record Producing Well

Monday last, in we'll No. 2. on the ].
f. Evey ranch, eight miles south OF
Vegas, the drill was working in the rou.
tine way, and Fox and McCollum were
about ready to move the rig to another
location when a flow of 100 inches Of
water was obtained.
Without warning a roar of rushing
water was heard and a column of water
shot into the air to a height Of several
feet above the casing. The tools were
quickly drawn, and the greatest well in
CLARK County. and in the State settled
down to business. Measurements taken
show that the we'll is pouring forth a
constant stream Of % less than 100
inches Of water.
The second we'll is drilled on the
Evey ranch. The first produced a salts
factory flow, but nothing extraordinary.

depth and its great volume Of water is
