GREAT SALT DEPOSIT.
Toward the east side o tn, valley, ex-
ending for several miles iu length and
some two miles in width, is an enor-

ike a great masa OF ice. In places

BELOW SEA LEVEL.
Along the course OF the Amargosa

below that of the sea level; as much as
120 feet was found at point opposite
Bennet's Holes. Large beds OF extinct
homes, rich in borax, soda and other
mineral salts lie in the valley.
INTENSE HEAT.
During the summer months the heat
is very oppressive. Birds figing across
the valley have been overcome, falling
to the earth from exhaustion. Every
living thing seems to seek shelter while
the sun shines, only appearing after the

from his Sunday trip to Glendora. He
had no aversion to talking about the
matter and said:

dorsed by Democrats in a manner that
was discreditable to the party and was
repudisted by the best Democrats of
