.JlM.JAM VALLEY.
The Rsmarkable Sights Alleged to Be Seen
In That Region.

The Rsmark.ble sights Alleged to Be Seer
In That Region.
s.In the secluded Jim-Jam Valley Of
the San Bernardino Mountains" re-
marked Joe Joachinson, the pioneer Of
San Bernardino. the other day to re-
porter at the Palace Hotel, there are
the most marvellous mirages known in
the world. The wonderful mirages Of
the Mojave Desert have been talked
about good deal, and they are entitled
to all the prominence they have had.
But those of the Jim-Jam Valley are
far more wonderful than these. 1t is
called the Jim-Jam Valley because OF
the strange things seen there. and l
defy any man, however sound OF mind
he may be, to 60 in there, and not
think he has got 'em before he gets
out. The valley is about twenty-five
miles long by fifteen miles wide. 1t Is
uninhabited. 1t is bOrdered by the
main San Bernardino range on the east
and by a spur of the Sierra Magdalenas
on the west. There is no well-defned
trail through the heart of it. The valley
is desert. The surrounding noun
tains are terribly serrated and cut up.
The peaks are jagged. Altogether the
surroundings are very weird and for
bidding. Leaving Fisk's ranch on the
trail at the foot of the Sierra Mag
dalenas, you climb an easy grade to
Dead Mans Pass, the entrance TO the
valley. Go on in and pretty soon you
see lakes and running rivers, and green
borders, and flying water fowl. Will
lows spring up here and there. and in
the distance you see water-lilies. What
you behold contrasts finely with the
rugged mountains, and you are charmed
with it and 20 on thinking you have
struck an earthly paradise. Indian
camps appear in view, and 1.-the oars
men propel fantastic crafts upon the
waters. Advancing still farther, you see
dim outlined forms, things whose out
lines you can hardly express in words.
Somber countenances CLEAN at you from
the air above. The lakes and rivers
and the pallid faces shift and change
before your eyes. Sometimes a dozen
of the more or less dimly outlined
forms may be seen. and the pantomime
reminds you of a strange hobgoblin
dance. Sometimes a storm brews in
the valley. and then the scene is all the
more terrible. Forked lightning blazes
about, and strange, uncouth animals,
differing from any you have ever read
about, are to be seen there. These
phenomena are seen for a stretch OF
about fifteen miles up and down the
middle of the valley principally, and
they have been viewed by a great
many people. They can not under
stand why the forms of the mirage, il
such it may be called. are so much
more strange there than on the Mojave
desert. Every body is in awe of the
valley, and there are mighty few men,
however nervy they may be ordinarily,
who care to 60 there much"

KEEP CLEAR OF Tive notice some
cheap printing on the wall to announce
the fact that Welsh q Golfers circus
will appear in our town on the 18th.
No representative of the show has
called at this Office to secure advertis.
ing or printing or to leave the usual
free tickets. We are therefore satisfied
that it is snide concern and should be
given the cold cut. A show of any sort
which sneaks past a newspaper office
is fraud on the public and should be

We Took WATER--The old imbecile
who publishes the dish-rag journal
down the street is out this week in a
scare-head article relating to us. 1t
is in relation to that little affair at
Yancey's one night last week. The
dish-rag says we played the part OF a
coward, and advises that we be treated
with contempt. Let us explain. We
dropped into Yancey's gambling house
to pick up few subscribers. We ran
across Bill Thomas. Familiarity known
as Shoot YOu-Dead William, and the
first think We knew he had a revolver
at our nose and was asking us to take
back something. We hadn't clear
idea of what he wanted us to retract,
but we took back every thing we could
think of, and We weren't over two min
utes about it. either. When man who
has made it his practice of killing fifty
two men every year for the last twenty
years has the drop on US we are going
TO take water every time, and do it
gracefully, too. If that's the part of
coward, then the dish-rag has hit us
right
THERE Is A CHANGE. of our
old pioneers boast that they are i'm
pervious to civilization. and that phil
anthrophy and sentiment have found
no lodging place here. And yet we
can see that change is going on de-
spite these boasts. The other night
when the boys caught Comanche Bill
and got ready to pull him up to cot
tonwood, half dozen of the crowd in
terfered and demanded to know the
reason why he was being lynched. 1t
was duly explained that he was a
worthless kuss who was barnacle on
society. and that the boys hadn't had
any fun for several weeks, and yet that
didn't go of. The crowd was
made to let Bill off on his promise that
he would skip the town or 60 to work.
A year ago he would have been hung
without a word of inquiry or protest.
We believe that the mawkish sentiment
Of the East is creeping this way, and
that it will, in time. upset our most
sacred institutions. - Detroit Free
