@ULD LUnED MANY TO-DEATH

Path to California in the “Days of ~’49” Literally Strewn With Bones of Unfortunates. :

“Thbe days of oil, the days of gold, the days of ’49,” marked the most picturesque gold rush in history. On the heels of Marshail's discovery, following - Sutter’s lead, éxcitement bec?me intense and gold in California was the ruling topic everywhere. By January, 1849, 90 vessels carrying 8,000 passengers sailed from various ports for San Francisco and 70 more were ready. During the year 549 vessels entered pert carrying 35,000 passengers , and 42,000 immigrants arrived overland. In a few months the population of San Francisco climbed from 2,000 to 14,000 and that year the first Pacifie mail steamer passed through the Goldcn gate. Four hundred sailing vessels were abandoned in the harbor while their owners and crews joined in the mad rush to the ‘gold flelds. Labor Jumped to. $lO a day and was scarce at that figure, - ‘ i

Between the spring of that year and the autumn of 1850, it is estimated . that about 'a million people—men, women and children—left the Eastern states bound for the new Eldorado. But of this vast army thousands died of bunger and thirst amid the burning alkali' deserts of New Mexico and Arizona ; thousands more lost their way und 'perished miserably in the gloomy canyons and intricate fastnesses of the Rocky mountains, multitudes fell \'i(-timq" to th‘e tomahawk and scalping snife of the Apaches, the raids of thee Sioux bnd the opposition of the Mﬁ mon elders,. who, resenting the intrision of, the gold .seekers, sought to stem the tide by force. = i

REALLY WAS PIRATE CHANTY “Fifteen Men On the Dead Man’s Chest” Did Not Come From the Fertile Brain of Stevenson. ] It will be news to most persons that part at least of the sea-song in “Treasure Island” is authentie, and certainly was sung by the pirates and buccaneers in the Caribbean in the late Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries.

- Dead Man’s Chest is an island in the Virgins which has now lost its identity in the new name “Dead Chest Island.” Here the pirates were in the habit of repairing to careen their ships and stretch their legs, and naturally it was an ideal occasion for songs which would have strong piratical and local flavor, SN SRR R

Curiously enough, 'there;is a little church on the Chilian coast |which is obviously: built of ship timbers, and recently an ‘enthusiast waiting for a coasting steamer bethought him that if the building came from a ship the bell probably did as well. A climb among the rafters did not reveal the name of the ship, as he hoped, but, sure enough, round the edge of the bell were the words, “Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest.” All that the priest could tell him was that the church bell ecame from a ship that was wrecked in 1722, Which was just the time that the West Indies were getting rather hot- for the pirates, and many were being driven into the Pacific.

It is an interesting sidelight on the strange nooks and corners from Avhich Stevenson (“R. L. 8.”) collected the material for his books. *

Counterfeit Cu rrency.

The distinguishing characteristic between real: and counterfeit “paper money is in the quality of the paper used. Every bank in the country has its own special paper, and each bank has its secret' distinguishing mark on every bill issued. It is very difficult for. the counterfeifers to obtain exactly the same kind of paper—of the same texture and thinness—and more difiicult still to incorporate in it the secret mark, and, although they may issue notes of a similarity that will deceive the publi¢, these notes very seldom pass the scrutiny of the experienced bank official. There are other characteristics’ in the counterfeit note, such as bad printing and coloring and awkwardness in the insertion of new figures when the notes are raised, but these are more easily detected, as are also clumsiness in the execution of the forged signatures.

New Mexico Wonder.

One of the natural wonders of New - Mexico is the Alamogordo, or Tularosa, desert. Itis a sandy plain, measuring from 100 to 125 miles from north to south dnd from 85 to 50 miles from east to west, and ‘it represents, in the opinion of many authorities, the upper surface of a’ gigantic block of the earth’s crust that sank after the deposition of the cretaceous strata, It Is surrounded by an elevated border, and ‘on the east, especially, the cliffy rise sheer to a height of 1,000 feet. The curious Organ mountalns are op its southern border. Within the plain, where floods of lava once swelled up, are vast deposits of gypsum, which. forms as white as snow, wh!ch‘f”'thg%:i wind drives into vast drifts. The vegetation is peculiar and highly int’eregt-.-,-] ing to botanists. R e
