THE MOJAVE RIVER.
The Recent Rains Have Caused 1t (,
Rise.

The Recent Rains Have Caused 1t to
Rise.
The Mojave river ie river once more
and is now rushing tumultuously be-
tween its banks. bringing back to life
the vegetation which for two years has
alept along it's borders.
This stream is one of those peculiar to
the desert stretches of our western states
and territories, one which alternately
appears and disappears.
In some places existing as clear
flowing: watsrcourss for miles, and then
again sinking for q great distance be-
meath the sunbaksd sands of it's former
bed until an upheavsl of the underlying
strata again brings its water to the sur
face.
For nine months Of the year this is the
appearance OF the Mojavs river.
1t rises in the San Bernardino noun
tains and runs a northeasterly course
until its contents are lost forever on the
western confines of Death valley.
When the SHOWS on the peaks of the
mountains are melted by the warm
atmosphere of approaching spring, this
stream becomes raging torrent, which
rushes madly through its channel, deal.
ing destruction on all sides.
The recent rains which have fallen
over the Southern California eeaboard
extended over the mountains, and the
people of Bsrstow and Daggett were,
last Thursday night, awakened by the
sound of rushing waters and knew the
Il ood WAS upon them.
The freshet was entirely unexpected,
as it generally occurs in February or
March. The worst however, is now
over and the waters are rapidly falling.
There was no freshet last year, and ae
there has lately been constructed in the
vicinity a large irrigating canal, fears
are entertained for its safety.
This apprehension proved needless,
the ditch being amply protected by
wing-dams, which effectually saved it
from damage.

The Law Committee OF the Kings

tified before the Committee that the
amount due them was mostly for serv-
Ing subpocnas.
THIS statement of the c%onstables sur
prised the Committee. because II Is sup

son and his policemen to serve subpoenas
and attend to all the criminal work OF the
town.
The c~onstables were to attend only to
civil cases. When Lawyer George +.

~visors, questioned Constable McAvoy on
this point, that town official made the
an agreement with Capt. Hendrickson
to serve. s~ubpoenas and do other Grim
