Lost ON the Desert.

Mrs. E. B. Bennett of Mason
Valley, a lady rs years of age, left
Virginia City last Friday with a
horse and cart bound for home.
When out on the desert about twen-
ty-fve miles from Virginia the
horse got away and the old lady
lost her bearings and wandered
about on the plains for nearly four
days during which time she had no
food but what few roots she could
find. She was found about six
miles from the auckland ranch
Monday by J. c. Mills and Graham
Nichols of Mason Valley who were
driving band OF horses to Wads-
worth to be shipped to Oklahoma.
Mrs. Bennett had not given up and
seemed determined to find her way
to some ranch. 1t was certainly a
trying adventure for woman of
her years and she must be very
hardy to endure the trial so WE'LL
