XIII.

For sixty days and more, while tb.
weather had been turning from COLI
to warm and they had been laborins
feebly to clear away the great slide
OF loose rock that covered up the
ledge, the Eagle Tail mine had 70
NAMED d mystery.
Whether, like the old Eagle Tail Of
frontier fable, It was so rich that only
the eagles head was needed to turn
the chunks into twenty-dollar gold
pieces; or whether, like many other
frontier mines, 1t was nothing but a
hole In the ground, was a matter still
to be settled. And Bud. for one. was
determined to settle it quickly.
Come on" he said, as Phil hest
tated to open up the way to the lead:
we got a month, maybe less, to get to
the bottom of this; and then the hills
will be lousy with rebels. II they's
nothing here, we want to find out
about 1t quick and skip-and if we
strike 1t, by grab, they amt enough
red-f1aggers in Sonora to pry me
loose from it. So show these hombres
where to work and we'll be up against
rock by the end of the week"
The original Eagle Tail tunnel had
been driven into the side of a steep
hill; SO steep, in fact, that the loose
shale stretched in long shoots from
the base Of the frowning porphyry
dikes that crowned the tops of the
hills to the bottom Of the canyon. On
either side of the discovery gulch
sharp ridges, perforated by the gopher.
holes Of the Mexicans and the ancient
workings Of the Spaniards, ran di,
rectly up the hill to meet the contact.
But it was against the face of the big
ridge itself that Kruger had driven
his drift and exploded his giant blast
of dynamite, and the whole slope had
been altered and covered with a slide
of rock.
Against this slide, in the days when
they were marking time, Bud and his
pardner had directed their energies,
throwing the loose stones aside, build.
ing up walls against the slip, and
clearing the way to the solid schist,
There, somewhere beneath the tumble
of powder-riven rock, lay the ledge
which, II they found it, would make
them rich; and now with s~ingle-jack
and drill thew attacked the last huoo
fragments, blasting them into pieces
and ~groveling deeper until they could
strike the contact, where the schist
and porphyry met and the gold spray
had spewed up between.
