HAZE SETTLES
ACROSS DEATH VALLEY
AND LONELY OCCUPANT

TONOPAH. New. Nov. 20.-(A. PO
Descending 5000 feet from Chloor-
de Cliff, in the Funeral range, to the
floor of Death Valley, approximately
900 feet below sea level, Mr.. and Mrs
C. C. Boak and Miss Blanche Robb re-
Gently motored into that historic val
ley. They have just retuned to their
homes here.
Describing the trip. Mr.. Back de-
clared he considered "the view from
Chloride Cliff the equal of, If not sup
erior to that of .he Grand canon in
Arizonia."
In Death Valley they visited the only
white there, named Denton. He lives
at Furnace creek ranch. owned by a
borax company and maintained simply
to protect the water right Of Furnace
creek.
The heat at no time during pro-
tions of the two days we spent in the
valley was excessive Mr. Boak said
about 90 degrees in the shade being
the warmest.. Mr.. Denton. who has
been there eighty years, keeps the gov
ernment weather records and he told
us only 1874 in the shade was the
warmest on record.
"At times, he said during the heat
of the summer, black gazeous haze
would lie motionless on the sump of
the valley for days. During such times
he never dared go outside the house,
he said, bV. Kept his water-power pro.
PEELED fan going continuously until
breeze dispersed the haze.
Mount Whitney. in the main range
of the Serras, was clearly visible.

prospect of an early settleme0t, given
confirmation BY the fact that the

there vas nOthing striking in the

Weather conditions are stlll tavoE-

Opening prices were steady and

but after slight rise profit taking

dropped off to 1850 after having
been as high as 1920. Some cover

came from scattered sources, re-
