There were many tempting roads
in the dry and wholesome woods,
and the excursionists travelled far
in . carry-all behind four horses.
The air was soft and fresh, the
ground was blue and white with
violets and starry flowers, the
Spanish moss was only sufficient to
be-whisker the trees and make them
look old without saddening the
view. Birds in great number were
there, chattering and warbling in
the trees. Mocking birds, red
birds, doves and hawks were plenty,
and high in air foated the omni-
present brzzards and the clumsy,
frightened turkeys.

SHORTY"

His Narrow Escape From Being Gre
mated.
Needless Eye: Thousands OF travellers
the sights they witnessed at Needles in
the person of Shorty" the Mohave In.
dian dancer whose limbs are deformed.
He always meets the trains, and for 10
cents performs his dance, which is gen.
orally finished by some spectator throw
ing cup or bucket of cold water on
him. But "Shorty" does not mind the
water, as he considers it part of the pro-
gramme, and it gives him chance to
start up again if be can raise another 10
cents.
''Shorty" ia the only one of his tribe
who lives after having been given up to
die by the medicine man. His escape
was narrow one. He was supposed to
be dead, and had been placed on the
funeral pyrs and the fire lighted when
he came to life. He was rescued, but
not before he had been badly burned,
hence his distorted limbs.
The incident occurred before this
place was settled by the whites
"Shorty" was taken sick from some un-
known cause, and all the arts of the
medicine man, ana the assistance given
by the squaws could not revive him.
After lying in trance for q number OF
days he was given up for dead, but his
relatives waited and watched until they
became tired out, and concluded that
he was no more So preparations were
made to bury the body. The pit was
dug, the logs placed across, the supposed
corpse placed on the pile, the incan-
tations were gone through with and the
fire kindled. The blaze enveloped the
entire mass OF dry material covering the
body, when sound was heard and sud
denly the logs above the body were cast
aside and "Shorty" bounded from the
the blazing pile. His hands and feet
were badly burned, but the head and
body being protected by heavy blankets
did not suffer. After recovering from
their fright, for they supposed it was
'Shorty's" spirit before them, his rela-
tives took him back to camp and gava
him such care as they deem necessary.
"Shorty" lives today as q proof that
Indian medicine men, as we'll as their
white compeers, can sometime be mis-
taken in their diagnosis.

Marvel station, the present terminus
OF the Nevada Southern, is situated on
the summit, only three miles from Van

The erection OF smelter at Needles
must be hastened by every legitimate
means within our power. Our town
would double in population within 80
days il l00-ton smelter was built here.
In order to have it ready for business
by spring the construction ought to
begin as soon as possible.
J. Bullock, who has a large contract
fa~ ho. fro, 81
to Marvel, has taken another contract
to haul lead ore from Goode Springs to
Marvel. At the present price of lead
there is good profit in working the
lead mines OF the Goode Springs mining
district. When the Nevada Southern
reaches there every mine will make e
snug fortune for its owner in short
time, provided they are worked system-
Rtically.
A. +. Stevens, superintendent of the
Free Gold Mining company, has
purchased the Legal Tender
mine in Crescent district for $4,000
cash. He had just returned from Pasa-
dena, where be went to close the sale.
The outlook at Crescent improves daily.
About 40 men are employed there now,
and a new mill is expected soon, which
will greatly increase the working force.
Several properties are producing ship
ping ore, which gives great encourage
ment to those interested in the district.

opnent of his properties Mr.. Campbell
is now loading a stamp mill near Mil
ford to ship by rail over the Santa Fe
L.
Having recently secured the best we'll
near the town, and djacent to his mines,
it will not be long before the mill will
be in operation. This means much for
the camp. Mr.. Campbell has the utmost
confidence in the mines of that section,
and heretofore his judgment has never
failed.

taken four hours and haif to make
half the distance, there was no possi-
bility of making the return voyage in
two hours. This proved to be'the fact,
and after tho boats bad made
about six miles of the return
voyage, each OF the yachts ran
down their sails snd it was declared
no race. All the steamers which had
been running in two parallel lines on
each side OF the yachts, about bali q
mile away from them, and sometimes
crowdine them little, go that it looked
like floating city with street in the
center down which the yachts were sail
ing, then put on all steam and started
for New York. 25 miles away.
1t was then a race for home. and we
had good opportunity of seeing what
each boat could do. There were two
steam launches that were said TO be able
to steam at the rate OF 80 miles an hour.
They gave us an exhibition OF their
speed, stesming completely around the
fastest vessels, and in place OF sailing as
an ordinary vessel does. sometimes
seemed to dive through wave, and at
other times to jump over them. The
steam yachts which we thought would
chow a very high rate OF speed, did not
keep up with the fast sound boats.
Some OF the sidewheelers had on so
much steam that the water came out at
the top of the paddle boxes in perfect
Niagara. With this class of vessel, after
they reach a certain rate of speed, the
paddles seem to lose their hold on the
water. The propellers were the fastest
boats in the fleet. Lack OF breeze, while
it prevented decisive race, gave us
some valuable pointers on the speed OF
the boats and it seemed to all OF us that
in the event of light breezes the Amer
lean boat would win. The En-
glish never seem to lose sight
of the idea that in making a
boat it must be substantial
enough to Withstand a hurricance,
whereas the American builder builds
solely for speed, knowing that there is
very little risk of heavy weather in sail
ing over the courses usually taken by
yachts. 1t is possible, also, that the
voyage of the Valkyrie from England
over to America, and the heavy weather
that she encountered, may have had
something to do with her losing the
race. In any event, the English may
pride themselves on the fact that their
boat is q staucb, sea-going craft, and
was only beaten on the last day of the
race by 46 seconds. VIAToR.

We said We never had, and begged to
be enlightened.
"I've lived on the desert for nigh onto
thirty years." he resumed, land seed

lin fer grub beats them all. Them
animals are rs we'll trained as any body
OF soldiers ever was under Gineral

by drawing straws or by ballot, / don't

reveille calls the pack together and they
come yelpin' and howlin' over the
desert like lot OF things possessed,
their appetites ehsrpened by the crisp
air and eager for their reg'lar diet OF
jerked rabbit meat. The avant courisrs
sniff around among the sagebrush and
greasewood, while the rest OF the band
form into q big circle, sometimes
spreadin' out on the plain over radius
OF two or three miles. The couriers
head jack-rabit in the circle and the
coyote nearest takes up the chase.
You know jackrabbit can run ten
times faster than coyote. and when
the one in pursuit gets tuckered out, the
next one takes up the chase, and 30 on
till the jack falls down dead from ex-
haustion. Then the whole pack leap
on to him, their jaws snappin' like
sheablades in shearin' time. Then
when the jack is disposed OF another
reveile is sounded aud the pack again
form into circle, and the circus Is kept
upunti every one OF the yelpin', yeller

Shipments of orc from the Camp
Mining Eotos of General
Interest.

Needles Eye: The editor OF the Eye
paid visit to the Vanderbilt camp on
Thursday ON tour of investigation to
ascertain the foundation of the recent
damaging reflections upon the camp
made by the San Francisco Chronicle.
As q result of this trip he is firmly of
the conviction that the future of the
camp is most bright, that there are
many hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of ore buried in the hills of that
locality, and he shares in the general
opinion that the article in the Chronicle
was part of a smooth freeze-out game
2l,eing worked by several parties unnec-
q sary to name, but VINO are known the
cot ,ntry over But the trick is an old
one and we do not think it will work
this time. Vanderbilt is all right. and
we W arrant the assertion that in a year
it will. be the biggest camp on the Pacific
coast.
We made a cursory examination of
several, properties, but our inspection of
the Cola Bronze, owned bv ]. X. Patton
and +. p. Taggart, was thorough. We
went down every shaft and through
every drih and level.
This min was the original discovery
poild on the ledge, others being located
after ward. 1t prospected we'll all along
the lmrface, and what developments
have besn made have been paid for
from the output. Roads have been
made y Blake, buildings erected, the
mine equipped, ptuspectors out6tted,
and mum Srous other outside expenses
have all b cen paid for from the output of

discovery. l'tAhas been developed by a
ehaft ITO feet En depth. four openings on
the surface, AND by drifts 500 fest in
length, and by numerous Slopes, levels,
etc. The vein has never pinched out
and it does not in any place become
broken. On the S00-foot level the ledge
has been drifte d tor 500 feet and
there is continu gus body of oreiall the
way.
The vein crops out between. walls of
gneiseic-granite and porphyry. the gram

phvry being on thr foot wall il ia

having a pitch of shout 80 degrees to

northeast and southw est. The vein 10

pay streak varies in width from three
inches to four feet alonls theivein.
A large number of shipments Of ore
have been made to Kingnlan, Needles
ard Selby's in San Francisco, and tie
returns averaged sl03 peu ton. There is
now in sight, already developed and
ready to take out, on g. close estimate
5000 tons of ore, and there are 200 tons
