MOST DESOLATE ON EARTH.
CALIFORNIA; NATURAL WON
DER, DEATH VALLEY.
Fred Monsen, the Artist-Explorer'
Tells Of That Strange, s,,s
Weird Region.

The Sacramento Camera CLUB is eA-
tremely fortunate in having prevailed
on Frederick Monsen to deliver his Ia
nous illustrated lecture on Death val
ley under its auspices. The lecture
which should pack the congregational
Church from door to pulpit-wiu De
given tomorrow evening. The pro-
ceeds are to be for the benefit OF the
club.
Mr.. Monsen is a fluent writer, an art
list and one of the most pleasing lectur-
-ers in the country. He has spent many
years in travel, gathering material for
his lectures on the desert regions OF
the Southwest. and the narrative he re-
lates of his experiences in Death Val
lev is intensely interesting. Upward of
100 beautifully colored pictures will be
thrown on the canvas by powerful
dissolving lantern to the dimensions of
sixteen feet in diameter.
Mr.. Monsen's pictures are not of the
ordinary kind Each is a gem of rare
art. carefully made from photographs
taken by himself and colored by HIM
self, for he has few equals in outdoor
photography and the preparation of
lantern slides. Some idea can be OBJ
tanned of the interesting character OF
Mr. Monsen's Death Valley lecture by
an outline of his trip given in an in
terview with a Record Union re-
porter: IS
IT started from Daggett," he said,
ION the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad,
with bronco team and blackboard,
provisions, two barrels of water and
tank under the blackboard seat with a
capacity of forty gallons more of wa
ter. 1t is 166 miles from Daggett to
Death Valley, through the desert all the
way, with practically no water, except
at two springs called Garlic Spring and
Cave Spring, where the water is alkali.
The longest single stretch between wa
ter holes was Nxty miles, and it took US
three days to make the drive in the
sand, travelling from early morning un-
til dark every day.
when we had got within striking
distance of the valley my driver gave
out-died in my arms-and is. buried
in the desert under pile of stones to
mark his grave. About the same time
my team showed signs Of exhaustion,
and I concluded to make for Pahrump,
New, little settlement across the line
and about thirty miles from where my
team finally gave out and died. I
walked about thirty miles, leaving the
blackboard and my traps until I could
get back. When I got to Pahrump I
found the only show for a team was
to take a pair of wild cayuses and
break them to harness. Two weeks
found the team tractible enough, as
teams go in that country, and I went
after the blackboard, brought it into
town, stocked UP with supplies and
headed for the valley again.
My route was down the canyon call

ably suggestive by the heat of the val
ley and the washed up appearance of
the ground, due to cloud bursts. In
