Extending northward for nearly 100 miles
from Ell Paso Is the noted tornado del Muerta
Journey OF DEATH which has width of 30
to 40 miles. 1t formed portion of the route
connecting the earliest settlements along the Rio
Grande and here the traveller was compelled to
leave the stream far to the westward in it's
deeply cut, inaccessible canyon, and toll for two
or three days in the burning heat without water,
except such as might be carried. 1t was for three
centuries one of the most menacing and hazard
GUS overland Journeys to be encountered in the
American desert. Recent Investigations, however,
have shown that the region traversed is in real
fty basin. and that water Is to be found, in
many other deserts, within reasonable distance
al the surface
Beyond lies equally remarkable desert, the
Stero basin, which is the bed of ancient lakt.
and is noted for great salt and soda fiat, a SAL
lake, and most striking of all, the white Sands"
of about 800 square miles covered with
dunes of gypsum sand rising to maximum
height of 60 feet
The surface of the dunes is sparkling white
due to the dry condition of the gypsum powder,
but few inches beneath 1t is of yellowish or
ruff color and is distinctly moist and cool to the
touch, even when the air is extremely hot. '
The most characteristic plant of the dunes Is
the three-leaf sumac (Rhus .trilobata) which &C.
in the form of single hemispherical bushes
four to eight feet high, the lower branches hug
ging the sand The plant grows vigorously, the
trunk at beneath the surface often reaching
diameter of three inches. The binding and pro-
tecting effect of this bush is often shown In
striking manner when in the cutting down of an
older dune by the wind column of sand may
be left protected above from the sun by the close
covering of the branches and leaves, and the sand
in the column itself bound together by the long,
penetrating roots One of these columns was
about 15 feet high from its base to the summit
of the protecting bush and about feet in diam
eter at the base.
A marked popularity of the White Sands Is
that cottonwood is occasionally found In the
lower dunes, reaching foot In diameter, but sell
dom more than Is feet in height; yet at the same
time not a mesquite was seen. The mesquite is

Clothes for MILKING.

Clothes which have been worn in the
fields during the day are not suitable
for milking purposes. Every mixer
should be provided with clean white
milking suit Such clothes can be
bought ready made for less than a
dollar and if frequently washed will
add in securing clean milk. Mixers
should also wash and dry their hands
before milking and above all, should
keep them dry during milking. To
wet the hands with the milk is a filthy
practice.

NO BLAME

BIG BLAZE
COrOner's Jury Fails to
Place Responsibility for
Factory Horror.

After two hours deliberation this
morning the coroner's Jury that has
for the past three weeks been investi-
eating the High street fire horror of
November 26 returned a verdict that
no one person or persons was RESPONSE
BILE for the tragedy that cost the lives
of twenty-five girls employed by the
Wolf Muslin Undergarment Company
on the top floor of the burned building.
The presentment OF the jury calls at
tention to the fact that Chief Justice
William S. Gummere, in his charge to
the December grand jury, spoke of the
fact that the Legislature had taken 1t
upon itself to prescribe the duties of
owners of buildings in relation to the
providing of proper fire-escapes and
protection from fire.
No One CriminaIIy Liable.
The jury also cites that the owners
of the burned building had substan-
TALLY complied with the law. and for
that reason they find that no individ-
ual can be held criminally liable for
the death of Carrie Robrecht, of 10
Hampden street, she being the fire
victim over whom the inquest was
held.
After this finding the jurymen said
that while their duty ended there they
felt II necessary to call attention to the
fact brought out during the inquest
that there were many other factory
buildings In Newark that were as dan
gerous as the High street one. and that
drastic action should be taken imme-
diately by the Legislature to so amend
the State factory law as to throw
proy,er safegIlards around the lives OF

Are Recovered.

CURED in the Little Hutton colliery of
the Hutton Colliery Company here this
morning soon after the miners had
gone below the surface to begin the
days work.
The cause and extent of the disaster
was In doubt for several hours. The
first rescuing party to reach the scene
succeeded in bringing seven men and
a boy to safety and later recovered the
bodies OF the five victims who had
had no chance of escape.
At the moment of the explosion flames
spread through the affected passage
and smoke and poisonous gas fumes
filled the shaft.
The plight of the miners was rem
dered more desperate by a mishap to
the machinery of the shafts, where the
cages refused to move for a time. pre-
venting quick escape and interfering
with the ventilation.
Many Burned to Death.
The rising gases were checked by
distractions and driven back upon the
entombed men. Meantime the fire
ragged fiercely. and it is supposed that
many who were not killed by noxious
fumes were burned to death.
The rescuers were unable to go direct
to the spot where the miners were
entombed, and there was some delay
while they sought access to the place
through adjoining leads.
Word of the accident was carried
quickly to the homes of the miners and
presently thousands of persons sur
rounded the mouth of the colliery. As
always on the occasion Of such dis
asters, the anxious throng included
hundreds of half-crazed wives and chill
dren and the pitiable scenes familiar
to coal-mining districts were enacted.
The work of rescue continued bravely
amid discouraging conditions. The res
cuers, wearing helmets for their own
protection, went boldly into the pit and
succeeded in extinguishing the flames
in an area $50 feet in length. but en-
countered heavy falls of coal and slack
that had been loosened from the roof
of the mine by the explosion. At 2
o'clock this afternoon only eight of the
290 imperilled had escaped and the out
look for the rescue of others was
dubious. At that hour a total of ten
bodies had been recovered.

ANTITRUST AND
LABOR INTERESTS
FOR EX-sEa. SMITH
Organ of Workingmen Declares
Sentiment Strongly Favors
His Election.

That the antitrust and labor inter-
ests are satisfied that their interests
would be faithfully cared for in the
event of the election of James smith,
tr.. as United States senator to sue
ceed Senator John Kean is shown in
MANY ways, individually and through
naners which voice the sentiment OF
the labor interests.
Here is sample of what the Antl-
Trust and Industrial News says about
the candidacy of the former senator
from this State:
4The Hon. James Smith, jr., Of New
.-L viii be the next United States sen
ator from New Jersey. In announcing
his candidacy he comes out with dec
laration of sound progressive Demo-
cratic principles. Jim Smith does not
eeht behind closed doors. He comes
ont in the open and is not afraid OF the
Rlnelight.
N.public sentiment among the great
mass of workingmen in New Jersey Is
with the senator, because he is truly
democratic and one of the most affaple
ord kindly of men. No hunkyism, OF
saa NV secretary, no red-tape-always

That's why Jim Smith is so popular
and that's only one of the many rea-
CONS why the people of New Jersey are

to elect James Smith, jr., United States
senator"
Comments on Letter.
The foregoing statement follows a
Comment of the paper on the letter OF
former senator Smith announcing ms
candidacy in which the paper says:
"T'his is a clear-cut and frank dec
laration of his position by Senator

cratic people of New Jersey.
.+The Industrial News has long and
earnestly advocated the principles OF

so unreeervedly commits himself in his
letter.

broad and progressive reforms as the
