OUR OWN SAHARA.
The Great American Desert is theStrang-
est Part of This Country.

The Great American Desert is the Strang-
est Part of This Country.
The Great American Desert was al
most better known a generation ago
than it is to-day. Then thousand of
the hardy Argonauvs on their way to
California had traversed that fearful
waste on foot with their dawdling OK
teams, and hundreds of them left their
bones to bleach in that thirsty land.
The survivors of those deadly jour
neys, had q very vivid idea of what
that desert was; but now that we can
roll across it in less than day in
Pullman palace cars, its real-and still
existing-horrors are largely forgot
ten.
The first scientific exploration of this
region was Lieut.. Wheeler's United
States survey about 1850, and ne was
first to give scientific assurances that
We had here a desert as absolute as
the Sahara. If its parched sands
could speak their record what story
they might tell of sufferings and death;
7 Of slow-podding caravans, whose pa
tent oxen lifted their feet leaselessly
rom the bhstering gravel; of drawn
A,sman faces that peered at some i'm
age Of a placid lake, and toiled franti-
eaI.ron to sink at last, hopeless and
>,9engthless, in the hot dust which tho
mirage had painted with the lines and
the very waves Of water.
No one will ever know how many
~1aEe yielded to the long sleep in that
4hospitable land. Not a year passes,
even now, without record of MANY dy-
ing upon that desert, and of many
more who wander back in delirium Of
'hlrst. Even people at the railroad
Station sometimes rove off, lured by
me strange fascination of the desert,
ana never came back; and of the ven
'arouS miners who seek to probe the
. golden secrets of those barren and
S'range-hued ranges, there are count
less victims.
A desert is not necessarily an end
less, level waste of burning sand. The
ureat American Desert is full of strange,
burned, ragged mountain ranges, with
deceptive, sloping broad valleys be-
'Ween-though as we near its southern
ena the mountains become somewhat
.iess numerous and the sandy wastes
more prominent. There are many ex-
uhet volcanoes upon it, and hundreds
u square miles of black, bristling lava
vows. A large part Of it is sparsely
I9olhed with the hardy greasewood;
b. IN places not plant of any sort
freaks the surface as. far as the, eye
can reach.

San Francisco Goes wild Over Corbett's
Victory.

Victory.
Special to the HERALD.
SAN Francisco, Sept. There is
great rejoicing in San Francisco. A
band of music is now proceeding to Cor
belts home, on Hayes street. The bull
letin boards at the newspaper offices are
thronged with people. The result OF the
battle at New Orleans was complete
surprise to the San Francisco
sports. Corbett, before the fight, sold
to l; after the second round, odds were
offered on Corbett, to 5. Everybody
is wild with excitement. The result is
great disappointment to the long
enders. At the home Of Corbett great
rejoicing prevails.
SAN FRANcIsCo, Sept. 7.-[By the AS

wild tonight over Corbett's victory.
Thousands of people congregated in
front of the newspaper offices, where
bulletins were displayed, and as the
progress of the Eight was outlined, show
ing Corbetts superiority, the crowd
cheered Justify. The newspapers issued
special editions, which were sold as fast
as they could be printed. At Harry
Corbett's pool room and 81.
loon, on Ellis street, there was
animmense crowd. When Jim's victory
was announced, Harry opened cham
pagne with a lavish hand. He claims
to have won over $40, 900 on tie fight. A
special wire ran to Corbett's fathers
house on Hayes street, and his parents
received the report of the fight as it pro-
gressed. They were greatly elated, but
say they wish Jim would stop prize
fighting now that he has become the
champion of the world.

At z p. m. there was only handful OF
delegates in the hall. They we're off fix

various deals that would affect the re.
mainder of the ticket to be nominated.
BY 7 80 the galleries were packed with
spectators and the stage was decorated
with the faces OF about thirty handsome
ladies'.
at 7:35 Chairman Murphey called the
convention to order. The anxious crowd
was glad of it and app'auded Mr.. Muir
phey when he brought the gavel down.
lt took the customary five minutes for
the delegates to get quieted down, but
they! finally did try to keep silence and
the fray was continued.
MR.. KELLEY NOMINATED.

he said had very capably filled the posi-

Sullivan the Favori,e All Through the
Battle, Though Never Ahead.
The scene in the pool-rocm in the
basement of the Los Angeles theater
building was one that was extremely
tranquil, when the excitement else
where is taken into consideration. The
venerable pool-seller, Mr.. Noyes, stood
out in front of the building as the twi-
light came on, and, like muezzin
tf1cGsht to summon the faithful to their
devct;5ns, But the crowd came in very
slowly. 1t was after O'Clock before
there was enough of an audience for the
veteran to open the pool-box; and even
then it took all his persuasive eloquence
to coax the money into the box at 10 for
Sullivan against 6 for Corbett. There
was no lack of Sullivan money, however.
One young Irishman, with the ruddy
glowsof health in his face, stood up to
the counter and was ready to plank
down his 20 to IL as fast as it could be
met with Corbett money; he ie probably
very glad that Mr.. Corbett's admirers
were go backward about coming for.
ward. The fifth round, which was q
series of smashes for Corbett against
blank cartridges for "the big fellow"
enlivened the betting somewhat and, for
a few pools the gladiators cold at 500
even. Then came a round in which
Sullivan made final rally and kept
even, though he gained no signal advan-
tage. This made the Corbettites timid
and the betting fell back to 10 to 5 once
more. All efforts to get money into the
box were unavailing. Sullivan money
literally went a-begging.
At the eighteenth round all betting
came to a standstill, and Sullivan money
lay on the auctioneer's desk uncovered.
The kilograms came in after each round,
and were read by the clerk, and before
the timid Corbett men could realize
that their man had long way the best
OF the fight, the bulletin of the twenty
first round was read, that Sullivan was
counted out and Corbett was champion
of America. The prediction of the
HERALD's sporting editor, in Wednesday
mornings paper, that Sullivan must
either win by the twentieth round or
not win at all, was fully vindicated by
the history of the greatest battle fought
in America.
