Down a Thousand Feet. The contractor who undertook to get water for the Clover Mann factoring company, or sink u shaft through a thousand feet of the underlying granite, quit work last Friday, having completed hi* undertaking. It* went down the specified distance, and tw(? feet over; but he failed to strike miv more water than he had at the last report some weeks ago. Instead of becoming more encouraging, aa the drill reached a greater depth, the ai nation waa really more discouraging. At tines during the boring proce-a, it w?t poaaihle to make sevte or eight feet a day; but along about the last, the granite nun ho hard that only two feet cou'.d he made. * It looker! as if it were uncle** to go any firther, and the mill people decided to quit, at lea-t for the present.
