The reason didn't have to be looked

that's. what you'd call it.

no question about that; they'd never
run again until a new set of gears
should be installed. That much deter

of the calamity. Naturally, l supposed
that a cracked cog In one of the
wheels had given way. and with this
for starter. the general smash would
follow as a matter of course. But
careful and even painful scrutiny Of
the wreckage failed to reveal the cog

CHAPTER X.
The Deep-WeIIs.


The next morning turned out at
break of day, before anybody else was
up, slipped into my clothes, straight
ened up my bunk, and dropped through
the ladder hatchway to the main-deck.
1 had told myself that the reason
for the daybreak turnout was a desire
to see If the railroad people really had
been sufficiently In earnest about the
proposed copper mine branch to make
a survey for 1t; but the true underly-
ing push was a biting reluctance to
have anything more to do with Butler
ton, or even to sit at table with him.
Tiptoeing through the common room,
so as not to wake Daddy Hiram. /
broke into Jeanie's kitchen and raided
the cupboard for a bite of something
to eat. There was plenty of bread,
and some cold fried ham, and cutting
couple of generous sandwiches, /
liked out to make my breakfast In
the open.
The sandwiches disposed of, began
to quarter the bench woodland back
and forth, searching for some indtea-
lions of the railroad survey. In due
time found one of the location stakes.
and from its facing and the markings
on 1t. got the direction of the proposed
line and was able to trace 1t for some
distance along the bench. AS Dad
dy had said, 1t ran within a few hun
dred yards Of the Cinnabar claim, and
short sidetrack would make his sug-
gestion perfectly feasible; our ore
could be shot into the cars with but a
single handling.
From tracing the railroad survey, l
edged around to take another look at
the possibilities of the drainage tunnel
Daddy and had figured on. Going
over the ground this second time, and
with some better knowledge Of the diff |
fculties, 1t appeared that we must have |
ridiculously underestimated the prob |
able cost. Pacing the distances care |
fully, and guessing at the differences
In altitude by the heights of the trees,
l saw that 1t wouldn't be safe to count |
upon less than mile of tunneling, |
and this. In the solid porphyry of Old |
Cinnabar, and In a situation remote |
from the nearest base of supplies,
would run-no, 1t wouldn't run; II
would fairly gallop into money.
Was this what Fullerton meant to do
Il he could GUST me7 That he was ut
terly confident of his ability to drain
the Cinnabar was evident. But how
was 1t to be done7 Would he, or his
packers, be willing to spend a quar-
er Of million or more. and the better
part of years time, driving that
tunnel7
The longer / thought about 1t, the

such expensive expedient was to be
