DEATH VALLEY.
An Hour Without Waterin THIS
Spot During the Heated
Term Means Death.

Death valley is probably the most uni
que natural feature in California. 1t is
located in the Southeast corner ot lncyo
county. and is lncosed by the Panamln'
mountains on the west and the Funeral
Range on the cast 1t is seyeniy-hVe
miles long, aud at lis narrowest point bul
eight miles wide.
At one time, most probably, 1t was the
bed of an ancient river. The lowest de-
nression is 200 feet below sea level, but
above this rises Telescope Peak, l,OOo
feet high. of the Panamint Range, and
directly opposite the Funeral Peak when
reaches an altitude oits,O 900 feet. During
the winter these peaks are covered with
snow.
This remarkable valley was discovered
II 1850 by party OF immigrants many oil
whom lost their lives in the attempt to
cross it. The name has clung to it, also,
as being the scene of numberless TRACE
dies. Early in its history traditions OF
gold and silver deposits of wonderful rich
ness within It's boundaries persuaded
many adventurous persons TO undertake
the hazardous experiment OF It's eAplora-
ton. The number who have lost their
lives in this desolate field is undoubtedly
great. Pursuing the mirage OF rich de-
posts of precious metals, these advent
urous prospcctors succumed at last to the
intolerable heat and the agonies OF thirst.
The range Of the thermometer is prob
ably greater in Death Valley than else
where in the western hemisphere. In the
winter the temperature is way below zero,
while in July and August at 1877 degrees
above, frequently rising several degrees
higher. For weeks at time the lowest
temperature observed exceeded 100 de-
grees. The deadly heat burns every ves-

and vegetables in this region, anticipating
