The well steadily spouted a stream of black liquid into the air from the subterranean chamber into which the underground lake poured. The attack had two objectives. The first was to check the outrush of oil. The second was to save the wealth emerging from the mouth of the well and streaming over the lip of the reservoir to the sandy desert.
"Oh, well done, well done, brave men!" cried Corinne, roused to a keen enthusiasm; and in one of the pauses of the cheering, when silence had fallen upon the spectators owing to a sudden vicious outrush of flame, which seemed for a moment as though it must overwhelm the gallant English tars, a voice came from one of the tow boats, calling out to a companion in another: "I say, Jack, didst thou ever take hell in tow afore?"
"The outrush of gas will stupefy them," whispered Frank, "we shall have nothing to fear from them after the explosion takes place." "When is it due?" gasped Billy, with a ghastly attempt at a smile. "At any moment now. It is impossible to calculate the exact time. But within half an hour we should know our fate."
I was a fool to have gone to them for help." "You had better have gone to the old man," taunted the girl, "as I told you at first." "He is made of the same miserly grizzle as she," he retorted hotly. Again the outrush of the tide drowned their words. Julie clenched her red fists and drew a long breath. A sudden frenzy seized her.
And always the man who had left her in her day of direst need; who had had the last warm fires of her life, the last brief outrush of her soul, eager as it was for a joy which would prove she had not lost all when she fled from the Manor Cartier a joy which would make her forget!
The amount of tail-curvature, he pointed out, depends in each case upon the proportion borne by the velocity of the ascending particles to that of the comet in its orbit; the swifter the outrush, the straighter the resulting tail. But the velocity of the ascending particles varies with the energy of their repulsion by the sun, and this again, it may be presumed, with their quality.
This ridge, however, was broken away for a width of two or three hundred yards, perhaps by some outrush of lava, the road running through the centre of the gap on which schanzes had been built here and there for purposes of defence. Looking at these I saw that they were very old and inefficient and asked when they had been erected.
