This applies TO arrears of taxes for

months. Grab samples from the drill
holes are rich enough to justify the
conviction that another valuable pro-
ducer will be added to the list of
Tonopah's dividend payers before a
great lapse of time. The water was
struck when the drills entered the
North Merger vein.
Spectacular features accompanied
the final act in the Victor shaft,
where the crew fed before the on
coming food that spouted forth like
a geyser or an underground freshet
with such force that the men were
knocked right and left, and massive
drills scattered like dust on the
street before a gale. There was not
much time to consider a plan of ac-
tion, as most of the men had to swim
out TO the drift after the water
topped their shoulders, threatening to
overwhelm them before they could
reach the shaft. The food broke
through in the southwest drift on
Merger ground and poured through at
the rate of over two million gallons
a day. AS one of the drill tenders
said 1T looked as If we had bored
