There never was another camp In

been very few similar copditions in the
world. For over seven months the

aged about $4,000. says the New York
Mail and Express. Over a dozen men
went there penniless and came away
worth over 100000 in less than .

Fully half the population walked hun
dreds Of miles to get there. No rail-
road ran through southern Arizona IN
those days. and the awful Colorado
and Mo5ave deserts had to oe crossed
in wagons or on foot by the multi
tude Of fortune seekers from Califor-
mia. Desert sandstorms were encoun-
tered, and for days travellers to Tomb
stone endured a temperature OF over
1870 degrees in the shade. Many q man
died on the hot. sandy plains. Miners
on their way to the new camp from
the east and south toiled acroes the
Arizona alkali plains through I'M
mense cactus areas. and risked their
lives in the then hostile land OF the
Apache Indians.
When Tombstone was reached there
were new privations and more physl-
cal distress for the greater number.
especially for those who had fastened
from offices, stores. clerkships ana
their pastors study. Over one-third
of the men in camp had very little
money. or none at all, and knew no
way Of earning 1t except by the hard
est kind of manual labor. to which
they were unused. 1t cost 81 a night
to sleep in a dirty. rough, pine BUNK.

mon overalls at IS each, smoked hams
at $12 each, and cowhide boots were
disposed of as fast as they could be
hauled to camp across the desert from
Los Angeles and Yuma for $35 pair.
In 1881 all the Tombstone mines that
paid well were In the hands Of few
persons and the population of the place
had gone down from 10000 to 5000.
In 1888 the mines. with two exceptions.
