out rich and beautiful ore. and the Hope
lode. and was sstunished at the richness
of the ore that comes. out of the deep
shaft sunk by James Stuart It is en-
established fact that Old Jake is not the
only man in this camp. These shafts
swarm with better men. At Yankee
Charley's tunnel near the Initial Point
found Charley and Mr. Hadley and the
DuTfee Brothers about two hundred
feet under the ground, and hope
these energetic boys will be richly re-
warded for their deserving labor. On
the San Francisco, Mr. Estell and Mr.
Freeman were at work. This lode is in
the granite and looks we'll. Proceeding
Ia the shaft on the line between Nos. .
and on the Rumley & Bugher lode,
found this opening looking fully as we'll
as discovery. This immense lode is now
open TO the extent of 1900 feet in length,
and the nsrrowest place in il is % feet

in the mill and their owners defy any

The valley of Death.

Eighty miles northwest from Camp
Cady, on the Mohave river, California.
there is n well known and dreaded
Death Valley" 1t is said To be lower
than the level of the sea. and wholly
destitute of water. The valley is some
fifty miles wide by thirty in breadth,
and save at two points, it is wholly en-
circled by mountains. mp whose steep
sides it is impossible for any but expert
climbers to ascend. Ii is devoid oi veg
citation. and a shadow of bird or wild
beast never darkened its white glariDg
sand In the early days trains of emi-
grants bound for California passed. un~
der the direction OF guides, TO the south
of Death Valley. by what is known as
the "Old Mormon Road" In the year
1860 a large train, with some three hun
dred emigrants, mostly from Illinois and
Missouri, came south from Salt Lake,
guided by Mormon. When near Death
Valley a dissent broke out in a part OF
the train, and twenty-one families came
To the conclusion that the Mormon
knew nothing about the country, so
they appointed one of their mum
Der a leader and broke of from
the main party. This leader
determined to- turn due west, so with
the people and wagons and fiocks he
travelled for three days, and then de-
scended into the broad valley, whose
treacherous mirage promised water.
They reached the center. but only the
white glaring sand, bounded by the
scoTching peaks, met their gaze on eV-
eery hand. Around the valley they
wandered, and one by one the men died,
and the painting fiocks stretched them
selves in death under the hot sun. Then
the children, crying for water, died at
their mothers breast, and with swollen
tongues and burning vitals the mothers
followed. Wagon after wagon was
abandoned. aud strong men tottered and
raved and died After a weeks wander
ing n dozen survivors found water in
the hollow of rock in mountain. 1t
lasted but a short time, then all per-
ished bat two. who through some nil
raculous means got out of the valley
and followed the trail of their former
companions. Eighty-seven persons. with
hundreds of animals. perished in this
fearful place. and since :hen the name
of Death Valley has been applied TO it.
