Aftor sovoral annoying delays during tho past two or throo wooks, tho DavlB-Calyx DavlB-Calyx drills aro doing tholr work buo-conGfully buo-conGfully within tho mlno of tho West Qulncy company. Mr. Davln, tho Inventor, In-ventor, bogan Installing tho machlnory on tho ninth of tho pre6ont month, and aftor he had succeoded in getting ovory-thlng ovory-thlng in readiness It was discoverod that the compressor wa6 not of suillclout power to permit the work to proceed. Ho had to substitute Btoam power, therefore, there-fore, and found this satisfactory. Mr. Davis had hoped that sufficient water could bo obtained for this purpose pur-pose from the lake nearby, but when this sourco proved lnsulllclcnt, ho was compelled to lnutall a pump on tho 440-foot 440-foot lovel of tho West Qulncy, from which a two-Inch plpo was run. Aftor overcoming thoso handicaps the drills began on tholr Journey from tho 440-foot level to tho contact, voin ln tho vicinity of tho 1200-foot lovel of tho mlno. Will Sorvo Two Purposes. This is tho first nttompt to utilize the drills In tho Park City region, but In spito of tho fact that tho West Quin-cy's Quin-cy's formation is a badly shattered ono, Mr. Davis Has little doubt of the successful suc-cessful outcome of tho venture. Ho states that tho drill holes will servo two purposes They will not only demonstrate demon-strate the possibilities of the contaot, but they will sorvo to drain the upper levels of the mlno as well. Ho anticipates that when tho drills pierco the porphyry dike, which was caught in tho drift on tho 410-foot lovol and cut by tho shaft at the GSO-foot lovel, lov-el, and which now is sorvlng tho purpose pur-pose of a bulkhead, lho dry quartzltc beneath will servo to drain off all tho water, which will greatly facilltato tho sinking of tho shaft. The drills have been UEed with success In other portions of tho world, and all Park City is watching watch-ing with lutorost their initial performance perform-ance ln that camp.
