They have with assi- duity. and hustle, that many failed to give them credit Of possessing. brought about the installation of an IT'D to date custom quartz mill. which stands as a monument to the dawn of a new era in the history of our mining camp.
 To raise sufficient funds to have such model up to date mill shipped in from San Francisco. with all the lumber. and cement necessary 10 install. and house the same. was a gigantic undertaking. and We honestly believe better and more conscientious board Of directors could not have been selected for the task
 There are yet many bills Co be met before the mill Is paid for and placed upon solid financial foundation. but with the ball tn be- given tomorrow evening. and the shares e. be sold en- terprising citizens who have the inter est of the camp al heart. we believe this herculcan task will be mastered. and thc min which is to pound out a solid foundation for our camp be set free from an outstanding obligations.
 To much cannot be said in praise "t the board Of directors. for II was ane [" their energy that the scheme was made possible, and by their con stant application and concentration of energy expended, they have succeeded 1 iu raising a monument to our future success. and to their own thrift and public spiritedness.

OUR UNDERGROUND WATERS.

Water is found in some amount n all formations below the earth's su: face from the loosest and most porous sand and gravrls to the hardest slate and
 granite. The amount varies from the
 merest trace chemically combined in
 the molecules of the rocks to immense reservoirs which supply wells flowing hundreds of thousands uf gallons a day Some waters are so pure that a
 nne chemical analysis shows only minute traces of organic and mineral matter. others are SO heavily charged with minerals or other Impurities as to Doe unsuitable for use.
 The slops Of the surface at any point is one factor determining the amount of water absorbed by the ground. The direction and amount of slope also de tcrmme the form of the water table that is of the upper limit or satura tion. Except where the surface Is flat the water table Is generally not paral- Tel with the surface: it is almost ln- variahly farthest from the surface on the summits of hills and mountains and nearest to il in valleys and along the coast reaching the surface in swamps and along rivers. lakes. and beaches. The surface of the water table is always in motion, it's higher portions flowing toward the lowest out lets along rivers or the sea. This dl- rection "f flow explains why fresh water is usually found when a well Is dug u sandy beach.
