SUFFER- FOR LACK OF WATER.

A party of six Skidoovians, taking
a short cut home from Darwin last
Sunday, experienced a touch of des-
ert thirst which came near making
their trip a short cut to "Davy Jones'
locker" In the party were Capt.
Otis, Jack Hartigan, the Durnford
brothers, Phil Hogan and Phil Forg.
They we're returning from ~Indepen-
dence. Thinking to save a days
time, they decided to strike straight
across the Panamint Valley for
Townsend's Pass instead of going on
the usual road by Ballarat.
They started with well filled can
teens expecting to find more water
at a spring this side of the valley,
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 further, then realizing the flu
tility of trying to make the other
three miles without water, picked
the freshest man and horse and sent
him forward to the springs to senl
back help if the horse could go
through-the whole bunch to perish
if the animal failed.
Jack reached the springs, all in
could scarcely talk. Murray Suther-
land went back with water. He
found the men all alive but mex to
them and they proceeded safely to
Emigrant. -Skidoo News.

TONOPAH WILL
PLAY PULLMANS

The Tonopah baseball team will
cross bats with the Pullman team
on Sunday on the grounds at Cali
fornia Heights. The Pullmans are
a colored team and have been prac-
ticing for the past month. Young
Peter Jackson, the fighter, will
pitch. 1t should be a pitchers game,
for with O'Banion in the box for the
Tonopah team and Jackson, who has
no small reputation as a pitcher, dis
pensing curves for the colored team,
there should be very few hits allow
ed on either side. This will be the
last game in which O'Banion and
Hoag will participate, as they will
leave for their homes in California
as soon as possible after Sundays
game. Manager Rounsevell is try
ing to secure a game with the Millers
team for the following Sunday, as
the Millers aggregation have the
name of being able to put up a fast
game of ball and no doubt will give
the Tonopah team a run for their
money.
The game on Sunday will be a
benefit one, as all the receipts will
go to the players of the Tonopah
team. This should bring a large
crowd to the game as the boys de-
serve the support of the entire pop
ulation of Tonopah.
