NEARLY PE-.AsH
Party Takes a Short Gut on the Desert
and Their Water Gives Out

A party Of six ~Skidoovians, taking
a short cut home from Darwin last
Sunday, experienced a touch of desert
thirst which cam near making thheir
trip a short cut to "Davy Jones' lock-
err In the party were Captain Otis,
Jack Hartigan, the Dunford brothers,
Phil Hogan and Phil Forg. They
were returning from Independence.
Thinking to save a days time, they
decided to strike straight across the
Panamint valley for Townsend 8 pass
instead of going the usual road by
Ballarat. They started with well
filled canteens, expecting to find more
water at a spring this side of the val
ley, but upon arriving there the spring
was dry, and their water supply was
practically exhausted. 1t was FIVE
miles to Emigrant Springs, mostly up
hill, and the sun was boiling hot.
Men and animals were nearly played
out. They struggled along for two
miles, then realizing the futility of
trying to make the other three miles
without water, picked the freshect
man and horse and sent him forward
to the springs to send back nelp ii
the horse could go through-the whole
bunch to perish if the animal failed.
Hartigan reached the springs, all in
could scarcely talk. Murray Suther
land went back with water. He found
the men next to helpless. Fresh water
soon reived them and they proceede
to Emigrant.-Skidoo News.

mind undoubtedly dethroned by his
awful suffering from thirst, John Gar
son, a young prospector, has probably
ere this fallen among the scorching
sand dunes of Death valley and his
body may be found any day.
1t is the same old story of the lever
for gold based upon fake reports of
the great wealth of the Panamint
range, probably due in part to the
stories told by WALTER Scott.
Carson was a well known young fell
low with a wealth of education and
grit. But he lacked discretion, else
he ncer would have wandered into
such a God-forsaken place as Death
valley alone. He left Greenwater in
July for the Panamints. His head had
been crammed full of the wild stories
OF gold in that section, and he stole
away one night, bent on locating ev-
erything that looked good. Parties
returning to the city say they saw
him fifteen miles beyond Furnace
creek, wandering about as if insane.
They tried to approach him, but he
ran away like a wild man and his zap
ture could not be effected.

his Majesty, WInnemucca, king of
all the Piutes, was recently married to
a princess of his tribe. Buena Vista
John, a truscd member of Winnemuc-
cabinet, says the royal consort is
past middle age and weighs all the
as four sacks of -four. Winnie.
mucca, who traces his lineage, ac-
cording to Piute tradition, from the
time when Humboldt valley was a
lake, is said too be the fifteen hundred
and fiftieth monarch of his line. He
has children past the prime of life,
and the old fellow takes a new wife
to provide TO ribs necessities in his
age. The Piute marriage ceremony
is a very simple affair. The chosen
bride retires to her wickiup at an ap.
pointed time and huddles in a corner.
If she does not like the bridegroom
she gets up and run away when he
enters the wickiup, but if he is the
man of her choice, she remains and be-
his slave for life. The old king
will now have an easier time thar has
been his lot for years past, as the
queen will have TO rustic enough grub
for the aged monarch.

EXPLOITING THE SALT
BEDS OF SAND Strings

FALLON, New, Aug. 17.-Charles
Kinney is here on his way to Sand
Springs, where he is putting in a
grinding plant to utilize the vast de-
posts of salt in that locality. He has
succeeded in interesting Philadelphia
capital. A trestle a mile long is being
built to a point in the lake where the
highest grade of salt is obtainable.
The trestle will be tracked with cars
run over it to carry the salt to the
grinding mile.
In order to introduce the product
on the market, he said, for the present
they will haul the salt to Fallon for
shipment. AS soon as industrial and
labor conditions will justify it, now
ever, the syndicate behind him, he
declared, would build a railroad of its
own, unless the Southern Pacific in
the meantime extended the Fallon
branch.

NO ONE TO TEACH IN
FALLON'S $780, 600 SCHOOL

FALLON, New, Aug. 1.-THE tax.
payers of Fallon believe they have a
strong kick coming against the state
board of education, as they have a
$4,000 high school building ready Tor
occupancy, with little prospect of its
being used this fall unless the stat,
board hurries.
The end of the vacation season is
two weeks away, yet not the first step
has been taken TO secur teachers. A
peculiar condition obtains here. The
old county board of education con
sisted of Mrs +. Y. McLane and Mrs.
j. w. Ferguson, with the then district
attorney, w. c. Grimes, an ex-o;cio
superintendent. Under the law passed
by the last legislature the board went
out of existence with the expiration
of the term of the district attorney.
Since that time there has been no
board, although there are funds on
hand to its credit in thehands of the
county treasurer.
The state superintendent of educa-
ion appointed IN assistant for this
district, but he has not visited Fallon.
