Important Data
on Watering Places
Of Nevada Desert

ert region are few in number and
very irregularly distributed-so ir-
regularly, that while in some dis
tricts watering places occur in groups
in others they are thirty to fifty
miles apart. Unusual activity in rail-
road work has so stimulated pros
pecting that there is a large influx
of strangers, many of whom do not
fully realize the danger of travelling
through an arid region, and it is
highly important that the springs and
other watering places should be To-
Gated as definitely as possible and
described for the benefit of prospect
ors and other travellers. 1t is believ-
ed that this urgent need for the dis
|semination of information in regard
to the location of known watering
places and the possibility of locating
and developing water at other favor
able points will be met in part by a
report by Gilbert E. Bailey, which
has just been issued by the United
States geological survey as Water
Supply Paper 224.
For many years Mr.. Bailey was
obliged to travel repeatedly many of
the main desert roads and trails, and
the information presented in his re-
port was in the beginning intended
| for his personal use. The authors
acquaintance with some of the des-
ert districts is necessarily more inti-
mate than with others, and the rec
lords are therefore by no means COM
plete nor are they of uniform value,
but it is believed that on the whole
fairly adequate and accurate descrip-
tions are given of most of the better
known and more accessible springs
and wells, and that many of those
that are less well known are included.
More than 800 watering places are
described and mapped, and the maps
shows also number of the principal
roads through the desert These
roads have not been surveyed and
only approximate locations are pos
sible, but the map at least indicates
the usual routes of travel
A copy of Mr.. Bailey's report can
be obtained on application to the di-
rector of the geological survey, Wash
Iington, D. G.

The southwestern part of the Great
Basin-that portion of it including
the arid areas of southeastern Cali
fornia and those of Nevada that are
most easily reached from California
points-is known generally to the
jewellers in the less arid districts west
of the Sierra as 1.-THE DESERT" but To-
cal names are applied to it's various
subdivisions. The most important of
the subdivisions are the Colorado
and Mohave deserts and the Death
valley region. The Colorado desert
extends from San Gorgonio pass
southwark to the Gulf of California
and includes the depression known as
the ''Salton Sink" The Mohave des-
ert lies farther north and it's boun-
diaries are not so definite, but 1t in
cludes much the greater part of San
Bernardino county and the eastern
portion of Los Angeles and Kern
counties, California. The Death val
ley region, which lies north of Mo-
have desert, stretches eastward from
the Sierra Nevada, covering large
part of Inyo county, California, and
extending into Nevada. 1t is named
from its central feature, Death val
ley, the lowest point on the continent.
At the present time public interest
in this desert region, which com.
prises an area of about $4,000 square
miles, is intense, largely because of
the discovery and development within
it of mines that are heavy producers
of gold. The resources of the desert,
however, are not confined to the prec-
ious metals but include a wide range
of products of economic value, among
which may be mentioned several val
liable salts, including borax, soda
gypsum, and common salt; building
material, including marble, onyx
brick, clays, and cements; baser met.
ais, like copper, iron, and lead; an6
gems, among which are turquoise anC
opal These products are widely dis
tributed throughout the desert coun
ties, and although the existence Of
some of them in commercial guam
titles and available form is as yet
problematic, others already form the
basis of important industries.

WINGFIELD SAYS
that NEVADA IS
GREATEST YET
YOUNG FINANCIER SPENDS SEW
ERAL HOURS IN TONOPAH
YESTERDAY.

George Wingfeld, one of the most
spectacular figures in the mining
world today, who has made millions
n Nevada mines and mining stocks
Turing the past four years, was in
ronopah for a few hours yesterday.
During his short stay Mr.. Wingfield
transferred his interests in the Tono-
pah Banking corporation, of which
he was a large stakeholder to Senator
Nixon, in furtherance of complete
dissolution of co-partnership which
las made millionaires of both of
Them.
The mining situation, so far as
Nevada is concerned, said Mr.. Wing
ield, is extremely bright, and
ook for an almost phenomenal out
Dut from the mines during 1909. The
Consolidated | regard without an ex-
eption as the greatest gold produc-
ng property, not only in the United
states, but in the entire world. The
producing properties at Tonopah are
lso, it seems, getting into Their
3roper stride, and an increasing pro.
luction seems to be assured. 1t looks
is though both Nye and Esmeralda
sounties would have a record break
ng bullion output during the re
nainder of the year.
Mr.. Wingield, after completing
he transfer of his banking interests
eturned to Goldfield.

A STRANGE ARREST.

NEW YORK, April William
Hunkins, q young Englishmen who
says he recently struck it rich in
Globe, Arizona, and who came here
as a member of a party of twenty
seven persons from Globe, was ar
rested by the New York police last
night upon the receipt of a telegram
signed, y. H. Thompson, sheriff of
Gibbs county"
Hunkins was at loss to account
for his arrest. Several members of
the party suggested that perhaps the
telegram was a practical joke. How
ever, the New York authorities de-
cided to hold him as fugitive from
justice until they can get further adj
vice by wire from Globe.

one day looked up from his desk and
suddenly asked:

Jones?"

not" the clerk addressed replied re-

commented, and turned again to his
papers.
The clerk had visions OF an offered
appointment as Secretary OF Legation
at Madrid. and that very night set
diligently TO work to acquire the Ian
guage OF the Dons, and with unusual
success. Two months later be ven
tured to suggest:
"Mr. Secretary, a short while ago
you asked me II was familiar with
Spanish. At that time / was not, but
| have since mastered IT,"
Indeed? Very good" the Score
tary said. "Have you become really
proficient in the language in this

the WAITING HABIT.
Which Mr. Msewhaekt Hopes Mao
Whaett Junior VIII Never Contract.

II suppose It's a fact" said Mr..
Macwhackt. that about the worst
habit you could contract Is that OF
sitting down and writing for some
thing TO turn up.
I've known n lot OF men that have
lad this habit but have never
known one OF them to have any
thing come TO him yet. or course
there's a chance OF mans being
struck by lightning. but II you TAKE
the total population of the world and
divide by the number struck you
would find that the chances OF be-
ing struck are very small and the
chances OF anything coming TO a man
who is waiting for something to turn
up are a great deal smaller still.
You see, as ! tell my son, VIII
Ham MlcWhackt, Jr., something, that
is TO say the something that we are
are always looking for to turn up,
is really not, as you might say, =
thing OF a migratory nature, that is,
not a thing that seeks people In
fact one of its chief characteristics
consists in its inclination to stick
somewhere, generally more or less
far of, in which It is like gold In
it's raw Ehape, which lies buried In
the earth at great distance, where
we must go and dig for 1t and dig
hard II we want to get It. Measles
and various other Affections come To
us, but not so, as a rule, with some
thing, meaning prosperity, which we
must go out and seek.
80 tell William that I hope he
won't join the great army of those
who sit down and wait for something
TO turn up. He might be struck by
lightning, but the chances are 80
much against it that 1t would be a
terrible waste of time to figure 'em
out and there wouldn't be anything
coming to him then.
What hope is that William VIII
get out and look and dig for what
he wants and not sit down and walt,
and he won't find the competition rs
keen as perhaps he thinks, for really
there are not such an everla ting lot
of steady, stick to it diggers. There's
a chance for every man than means
business.
"I tell Willie that II he doesn't
get the biggest prize in the whole
world he'll get something and some
thing worth having, If he'll only gct
out and get work around among men
in the places where the diggngs are
found.
That's what I'm hoping william.
Jr., will do-go out and work like
man for what he wants; the thing
OF all others that hope he won't
do is to sit down and wait for some
thing to turn up"
