True Story of the Death Valloy Horror, Lost in the 'Mountains ~Terri ble Bufteriugof a Train that Oroesed the Bierras in Midwinter, From the 8an Franciscs Chronicle, SAN Ber~NaroiNo, May 1.—The story that Is commonly told of the emigrant traln that perished in Death valley In 1849 forms one of the most painfal chapters fn the history of Cal- ifornia. It has been frequently retold with all ite thrilliog details, The scene cf death, as 1 looked years after, with the bleached bones of oxen and the fragments of wapons scattered over the yalley, has often been piot- ared. Only two of the party of elghty- seven, It s sald, sorvived. ~ Although the account of the terrible sufferings of that band of emigrants ¢ one of the favorite storles told of early Call- fornia days, the trath of that terrible journey 18 yot to be made publie. The following narrative is based upon facts gathered from the many who survived the privations and sufferings of that winter in Death valley: In the first mad rush for the *‘Land of Gold” ia 1849, many of the Argo nauts were men who left nome, wives, children, kindreds or sweethearts, to whom they expected to return In the uear futare, All who came expeoted to return immedlately. Some came to our shores to bulld up homes. The great hegira of 1849 was made up of fortuve-hunters eager to reach the en- chanted land, 3 They left the ‘‘states” without regard to the season of the year, and thus many arrived at the great half-way house—Salt Lake— late In the fall, and there learned of the snows of the Slerra Nevada moun- talos and the fate of the Donner party and others who attempted to cross the almost unexplored wilds during the winter months, IMPATIENT PIONEERS, Many trains declded to winter at Salt Lake and spread themselves out among the Mormon settlers, where they could find food and shelter for themn: lves and stock. About the lst of October the Impatient fortune hunters, bemoaning and cursing their inactivity, began to canvass the theory of crossiug by some southern route, No one, however, appeared to know anythlog of the country, and further they had been told by Fremont that the route was impracticable, Still they were not satisfied and finally dis. ocovered in the porson of & Mormon, Maj. Hant, a person who had been over a southern route with a pack traln, aud who declared it feasible for wagons and offered to pllot them shrough for §10 per wagon, A train of 105 wagous and two carts was made up, containing about 200 persons. The rodeo took plics at Hobble Oreck, U, T., ten miles s>uthwest of which on the 21 of October, 1849, an organiza- tlon of the tralu was ¢ff:oted by eleat- ing Cipt. Baxter, of Michigan, cap- taln, Dr. McCormick of Towa City, Io., svcond {n command, and dividing the traln into neven sections, each with & captaln for guerd duty, and with Maj. Hont omployed as gulde, The traln rolled ont and reached Beaver creek, in Southwestern Giah, without any incldent worthy of uote, LED ASTRAY, Here they were met by Capt. 0. K, Smith with a pack train from St. Louls, Mo, Capt. Smith bhad led a pack traln over the old Spanish South. ern trail and peofissed to know a cut off by which & hundred miles could be saved, by following up Beaver creek, leaving it near the polnt where the Mountain Meadows massacro after- wards occarred, and c(rossing a range of mountains and striking the old Spanish trall near the oroseing of the “Muddy.” He Induced nine of the men, led by Will Webater, a daring, reckless man, to join him, and then the entlre trsin followed him with the exception of seven wagone and the guide, Maj. Huat, who pronounced againat the route. The train pulled out, and following the trali taken by Capt. Smith, fol- lowed It up on to the range of moun- talns between them and the ‘*Muddy."” Here they found by his wanderin, and windlug trall that Capt. Smith ms lost his way. The traln encamped and sent out ploneers to look out a route off the mountains, Two days were lrnt in a froitlesss search, and as all the ploneering partles had returned, with the exception of one composed of the Rev. Mr. Brierly and two young men, and reported it impossible to get off the mountains, it was determined to retrace thelr s and follow the trall taken by Maj. Hunt, On the morning of the third day the teams were hitched to the wagons and every- thing prepared to start. 1hey were detained a short time while the men burled a comrade who had dled the night before. While they were walt- ing Brierly and party came in and reported finding & practicable route down a valley which opened out towards the southwest. IN DEATH VALLEY, The train was here again divided. Sixty-five wagons followed Brlerly down Into what ls now known as Death valley, the balance of the train returning ana taking the Spanish trall followed by Maj. Hunt, The experl- ence of the train of sixty-five wagons which followed Brierly ‘‘down Into the valley of death” was a severe one, They travelled for days without food for thelr stock and barely water enough to subsist on. Still they continued on their course, leaving thelr way dotted by the carcasses of thelr oxen, which fell down and died from starva- tion. Finding it impossible to pro ceed with the wagons, they were fially abandoned, and, packlug as much provislons on their starving cattle as they could carry, all started west, every man for himeelf. They wok diffsrent routes—some came out by the Mohave and Cajon pass, others by the San Fernando pass and others came out on the plalns north of Tehachepal pass and were found and cared for by French and McKinzle, Upou the abandonment of the wagons » man named Bonnett and his family and another named Arkane and his family, together with three or four young men remalned in the valley. Rellef faillng to come, John Rogers |!ar relief, and passing through San Fernando pass, reached Los Angeles, and packing two animals with provis. ions, went out and brought the fam- {lies in, arrlving at Chino raoch on the 26.h of March, MAJOR HUNT'S PARTY. The entire Death Valley party suf- fered most Incredible hardahips, living most of the tlme on the carcasses of thelr starved oxen, which afforded but scanty nourlshment, as even the bones contalned not s particle of mar- row, They traveltd e for days on foo sver the hot, burning sands, witha very scant supply of water, Notwith. standing this,only two d s ocourred on the journey. The seven under Major Hunt aud the balance of the train which tarned back from the mountains and followed him all ar. rived In safety, the last of them arrly {ng at the Chino ranch on the 12th ot January, They suffered great hard- ships and lost great numbers of thelr oattle, but they brought the firat wa- gons into California by the southern route from Utah, Oapt. O. K Saith after wandering In the mountalus for some times, finally etruck the ‘‘Mud- dy,” and, following It down to the Spanish trall, succeeded In getting fn with ten animale out of seventy., The nine men who joined him from the emigrrot train at Boaver ereek trav- eled with him for a week or more,bat, becoming dlsconted, they killed and *‘jerked”’ thelr last horse, and under the leadership of Will Walker, started west. All of the men wanted to travel southwest, but Walker Inaisted on leading them northwest. They finally got into snow, thelr provisicns gave out, and Walker began to vaguely hiat that some one would have to farnish meat for the others, At this two of the men, Savage and Planey, got up one ulght and left them, and, orossicg a range of mountalns to the south over thirty feet of snow, found an Indlan camp. The Iudians cared for the wanderers, and, under the guldanee of cne of them, they finally reached Monteroy In the spring of 1850. THE REMNANTS OF THE TRAIN, Thus the presonce of the remnants of the sixty-five wagons which are still to be seen in the sandy wastes of Death valley s explained and a horrl- ble myth which has harrowed up the feellngs of the symyathetic tor the ast thirty years s dlesipated, and as rnrthu evidence that the foregoing Is a true account, it Is stated by many miners and prospectors who have vis- fted and carrled off portions of the wrecked wagons, that while the skele- tons of cattle lle on all sides, not a human skeleton {s to be seen. Daath valley has been in the last few years scoured over by prospectors, who fall to find In it any of the terrors vividly deploted by fictlon writers, It is in- deed a misnomer.

Washington Letter to Cleveland Lealer, Iam surprised to find how little people know of Washington and its life. Fifteon thousand strangers come here every winter, and hundreds of thousands viait the capltol every year, but, as ueual, nct one man in ton recs anything,‘and the great maasus at home know absolutely noth- Ing of the strange slghts and strange people who muke up the 200,000 residents of Washlngton, Last night, for Inetance, in a stroll on Pannsylvania avenue, I notloed a couple of ocougressmon entering a little saloon directly opposite the Na tlonal theatre. It was a low wooden building, old and weather-worn, and on the lintels of its door I notlced the words, ‘‘John Hancock, founded 1840. ‘*‘Directly over this entrance was the slgn, “‘Old Curioslty Shop.” I entered a long, narrow room, with a celling 8o low that the head of a Slade would sorape it. The bar, fitted out as olegartly as any in Washington, covered the wall at the right of the entrance. Back of It hung pictures and relics of the orimes and honors of the past, and the walls of the rest of the room were covered with articles which would make any museum rich, The old, gray-halred negro who tended the bar was in himself a curl- onlty. He told, as he filled my glass, that he had been tending the same bar for thirty-five yesrs, and that his saloon was the chlef resort in former times of the statesmen of the capital. Sald he: “I have often seen Clay, Webster and Calhoun drinking here together, Henry Olay and Daniel Webster used to be here night after night. Clay always drank brandy julips, and his spirits rose rapldly under the luflaence of liquor, Webater drank oonslderable, and the only observable change In him was that his eyes grew brighter and his talk became, if any- thing, more measured. Calhoun sel- dom drank strong drinks, and took elther lemonade or sherry, and often nothing. He would come In to talk, They were lively fellows them days, and they liked their fun just as well as the blg men do now, They often played cards here."” “Did they gamble?" I asked. ‘‘Not for money, but generally for the drinks, I remember a game of cards Olay and Wester and two other men played here one raloy night. They played here for the drinks and smells. The men that won drank, and those that were defeated pald for the daluks and were forced to smell the glasses of thelr opponents, They started In at 10 o'clock and they played untll 2 Luck was sgalnst Clay, and T don't think he won a drink durlngthe whols evening.” I spenta very pleasant half-hour examining the carlositios hung on the walle and but up In cases around the room. In one place there was a pair of shoes formerly worn by Washing- ton, No. 19's, I should say, with broad, flat soles and common-sense heels. No aristocratic lustep had the President Lincoln stood near by one of John O, Oalhoun's, the great seces- slonist and the great unlonist almost kissing each other. A ploture of Charles Gultean was appropriately made s companion to ene of J. Wilkes Booth, and on the other slde of the room was a theatre bill, glving the play at Ford's the night the assassina- tlon of Linooln occurred. Bllls offer.

There was currency of all kinds, postage stamps dating back al- most to thelr orlgin, and & hundred or more autograph letters, any of which would be very valuable new. This little saloon 1s one of the curlosities of the capital. It s not down in the gulde-books, bat its history and mus- eums make {t worth seeing. A Case not Beyond Help: Dr. M. H.

New York Sun The high price of hops this year has produced activity In the business of supplylng a substitute which fs cheaper. Several preparations are used, The substitutes can be sold at o profit when hops are 10 cents a potnd. As hops are now selling at 90 cents, and have sold as high as $1.10 a pound, the demand for the hop substitutes is brisk. Some of the substitutes are made abroad, but the large profit has induced the invest- ment of Amerlcan capital In the busi- ness, The competition in the beer busi- ness Is so great that even the small quantity of hops used to make a bar- rel of beer becomes a considerable ftem in the cost, The use of the sub- stitute 1s considered somewhat of a secret in the buslnees, but the geods are openly advertlsed, and warranted to meko boer as bltter, as clear, and of as good keeping quality as can be done with the best hops. The nature of the Ingredients of the subatitute is kept a secret, bat the makers aver that it is not deleterious. Of course, the enormous price of hops thls season has stimulated the hop raisers to vigorousefforts to secure a good crop next season, From Call- fornia it ls reported that the plant will be one-fourth greater than last season, and slmilar reports come from the hop districts of thls state. As hops lose thelr strength by age, ic is impracticable to store in plentifal years to provide for the short years. hops are always low priced. When there is a plentiful crop here and a short crop in England American hops are used to make Lnglish beer. It s, therefore, apparens that the Eoglishman did us a gross Injustice who sald: ‘They can make good ale in this country, for they ha'n’t got the 'ops, you know.” IS _UNFAILING mTA AND_INFALUBLE SNcuniva 4® Eplleptic Fit NERVINE B l us Dance, Alco- holism, Opinm Fating, Scminal Weakness, Impotency, Syplilis, Scrofula, and all Nervous and Blood Diseases. @& ~To Clergymen,Lawyers, Liters Merchants, Bankers, Ladie gedentary employment cause tration, [rregularitiesof the Blood, Stomach, Bowels or K , or who require a v tonie, appetiz Nervine is invaluat imulant, Sama £#™ Thousan( proclaim it the n wonderful Invigo ant that ever sus tained a sinkingsys- tem. $1.50at Drug- ‘DEB gists.
