DEATH VALLEY, NEVADA.

Escape of Prospectors Due to an Intelli-
gent Donkey.
SAN Francisco, July ia special
from Montgomery, the new mining
camp in the extreme southwestern part
of Nevada, says: About a month ago
Bob Montgomery, brother of the finder
of the mines here, with Mr.. Sherwood
and Mr.. Metcaf left here with six
jacks on prospecting trip in the foot
hills around Death valley. They are
all old hands at roughing it, but they
agree the famous valley is we'll named.
Death valley, Funeral range, Poison
springs, Furnace creek and Lost creek
are all poetical names. Montgomery
and his party say there is no poetry In
them In making the trip from Fur
mace creek to Cottonwood a hot wind
came up, in which it was next to i'm
possible for them to get breath. The
animals began to give out, and they
were compelled to abandon their
packs and start on hunt for water
What little they had left they mixed
with vinegar and oatmeal, but the IN
tense heat .soured the oatmeal and made
the mixture so hot that it would
actually burn them when they wet
their swollen tongues with 1t None
had been over the ground before, and 1t
was only due to the intelligence Of
Montgomery's pet jack. Sullivan, that
they were saved from suffering If not
death. Dragging along up the valley,
they were passing the mouth of cam
yon when suddenly old Sullivan gave
tremendous bray.
Metcalf said: That's water, boys"
and started up the canyon. Sure
enough, he gave yell of joy. Water
was found.
Montgomery's party covered 600 miles
in thirty-eight days. They traversed
portion of the valley which had proba-
bly, never been visited by white man,
as it was far to the west of the route of
the recent government expedition
They found an abundance of water in
the western foot hill and many springs,
the knowledge of which would have
saved the lives of emigrants and miners
They found the remains of the lost
Townsend emigrant party, who in ear
The great heat had almost reduced
the bones to powder, and the wood
work of the wagons had all been
burned by the Indians. The Townsend
party started from Salt Lake for. Los
Angeles, and were piloted into Death
valley by A. NJ. Burnett where they
quarreled and separated. Their stock
all died from drinking the poison water
at Poison spring. Starvation and heat
decimated the party. They could not
even make soup OF the bones of their
dead oxen, as the marrow had been
in their bones and their flesh and skins
were rotten when they died There
were 12O wagons in the train, and not
one ever reached the coast 1t is esti-
mated eighty died at Furnace creek.

Bridges Badly Needed.

Those coming to town from the
northwest and north complain Of the
bad condition of the bridges in Grant
township on Buckeye this side of the
college and on the east and west road
west of the cemetery. The former
has large holes il it which may break a
horses leg easily while the yillainOus
stone crossing over Mud creek is a
menace! to every team passing that
way. The trustees of the township
have contracted for a bridge farther
north where there is little travel but
on the much used road the crossing is
left in a dangerous condition. Some
suits for damages are likely to come
from this neglect unless something is
done soon.

afternoon say that the report of their

didn't know anything about it. After

some singing, Rotations, etc. Then
