OF course, the tenderfoot has no show
when he gets lost or his water gives
out on the desert; but even the season
ed desert resident frequently gives UP
the ghost. Last April James Littlefeld
of Ballarat started on foot from the
Borax ranch on Furnace Creek to go
to Ballarat. 1t was a twenty-four
hour journey and he took an ample
supply of water.
In his haste to reach the end of his
journey he tried to make shot cut
and lost the trail. His water gave out
and for four days and three nights he
wandered over the desert.
He was without water after the first
day and without any food after the
second. In his half-crazed condition,
seasoned as he was to the heat, he
tried to kill himself, but failed.
He finally reached an Indian camp
at Emigrant Springs and the natives
took him by team to Ballarat. There
he was full month before he recover
ed from his sufferings on the desert
without water
All the papers printed near the Mo-
jave Desert are trying to discourage
miners, especially of the tendeTfoot
class, from rushing into Death Valley
during the hot weather. The only big
company in the whole regionds tire Borax
company on Furnace Creek. The man
ayers have stringent orders not to sell
hay or horse feed to any one, and
several prospectors have been compel
led to return after reaching the new
mining district, as their horse feed
gave out and they couldn't buy any
The company has given water, food
and horse feed to several prospectors
who would have persisted except for
such aid, but it is dangerous to venture
into country where money will not
buy the necessaries of life.
By october the heat is lessened in
Death Valley and then there will pro-
baby be a great stampede to this new
mining district. The business of fur
nishing food and supplies for man and
beast promises to be as lucrative as
mining, as hay is now selling at the
nearest town for $50 a ton.

The following excerpts from the Mania

Things theatrical in Manila are not in
very good way. However. it is to be sup

has been but one noteworthy incldent-the

Unfinished Educations.
Erom the Chicago- Tribane

From the Chicago Tribune.
Fifteen years ago there was hardly a
town in western Kansas which did not
show many foundations on which no super
structures had been erected. The founda-
tions remained uncovered because of the
collapse of the boom. Some of them were
small and shallow. Others were laid broad
and deep The elements assaIed them all
alike. The rains washed the mortar from
between their bricks and stones. The frosts
disintegrated the bricks and stones them
selves. Foundations which. if built upon
in the ordinary way would have endured
for generations. fell, i'll a few years, into
such utter ruin that when good times" re-
turned to Kansas it was in all cases I'M
safe, and in many impossible to erect
buildings upon them. Only small portions
of the. material they contained could be
utilized in the construction of other founda-
tons s
Not unlike the fate which these aban-
doned foundations suffered is that which
overtakes the educations which many men
acquire in the schools. Schools and colleges
lay but the foundati ton of education They
may lay it broad and deep. but if no SUI
perstructure is later erected over it the
foundation will quickly fall to pieces As
ISOLATION, the mortar that binds the bricks
and stones of the mind together will be
washed away in time. Ideas which are the
minds bricks and stones, will crumble and
fall apart foundat ton without a suner-
structure is worthless. 1t has no adapta-
bility to its environment Nature will not
let it long exist. There are thousands of
men and women who have a smaller sum
total of knowledge and reasoning power at
thirty or forty than they had when they
threw aside their school text books. They
have erected for themselves no intellectual
superstructure, and their intellectual
foundation. being unprotected, has fallen
into decay

Colors Not Easy to See.
From Success.


What color is least easily seen at dis
lance? One would naturally say some
dull neutral tint, sombre gray or brown.
This has been the conclusion of most mill
tary men. and our brilliant dress uniforms
have given way for practical campaigning
to khaki and other dull coiors. Is this a
mistake? Possibly so, according to the re-
suits obtained in recent experiments In
England. 1t has been found there that
masses of dull color are very much more
conspicuous at distance than mixtures
of bright tints. For instance. a battery OF
field artillery whose carriages. and cais-
sons We're decorated with stripes OF red,
blue and yellow could be made out with
difficulty at a thousand yards, while other
batteries painted a uniform brown or drab
were easily seen at great distances. 1t
would seem as II. on the same principle a
regiment OF gayly dressed troops might be
less easily visible than one wholly CARRIED
in dull-colored khaki.

which has been pasted good. stout canvas.
The dressing room owned by Miss Tanguay,
when set up. is twelve feet long, eight feet
high and ten feet wide. with a V-Shaped
roof. The fats are made with hinges in
the center TO admit of their being folded up
and placed in a huge tarpaulin envelope
for protection from weather while in
transit. The inner sides of the fiat are
sealed with dark green burlap, the wall
decoration now so much in vogue for IL
braries, studios, ETC. About foot from the
top of the flats there runs a small gilt mold
ing, from which, when ready for use, hang
photographs of friends and associates OF
the little star. The floor is covered with
a beautiful Smyrna rug. while the furniture
decoration consists of coy corners and two
or three restful-looking chairs also gilt fin
ished and upholstered in beautiful design
OF pink cretonne, which. with the dark
green burlap of the walls. sets off the room
to fine advantage and develops most ar
tistic color scheme.
In one end of the room Is the makeup

French plate mirror, surrounded Dy guam
tity of thirty-two-candle-pow electric

ceiling a sunburst has been arranged with
yari-cnlored lamps which can be changed at
will, and which assists materially In the
important task of making up the piquant
face of the little Tanguay.
