True Story of the Death Yallay
Horror.
Lost in the 'MountainsTerri
bio Bufteriug.of a Train that
OroBBod the Biorros
in Midwinter.
From the Ban Fr anctici Chronicle.
SAN 13EiiNAnoiNo , May 1. The
story that IB commonly told of the
emigrant train thut perished In Death
valley In 1840 forms ono of the most
painful chapters In the history of Cal
ifornia. It has been frequently retold
with all Its thrilling dotalla. The
scene of death , ai It looked yoara
after , with the bleached bones of ox"on
and the fragments of wapona scattered
over the valley , has often been plot-
nrod. Only two of the party of eighty
aevon , It la said , survived. Although
the account of the terrible sufferings
of that band of nmigrants U ono of
the fttvorlto stories told of early Cali
fornia days , the truth of that terrible
journey in yet to bo made pnbllo. The
following narrative Is bated upon facts
gathered from the many who survived
the privations and Bufferings of that
wlntur In Death valley :
In the first mad rush for the "Lind
of Gold" ia 1819 , many of the Argo
nauts wore men who loftnomc , wives ,
children , klndreda or BweethoartH , to
whom they expected to return In the
near future. All who came expected
to return Immediately. Some came
to our shores to bnlld np homos. The
great hegira of 1849 was made np of
f jrtutiO'hnntcra eager to reach the on *
chanted land.They left the "states"
without regard to the season of the
year , and thus many arrived at the
great half-way house Salt Like
late In the fall , and there learned of
the snows of the Sierra Nevada moun
tains and thofato of the Donnor party
andothoro who attempted to crois tbo
almost unexplored wilds during the
winter months ,
IMPATIEHT FIOUEEIW.
Many trains decided to winter at
Salt Lake and spread themselves ont
among the Mormon sottlera , where
they could find food and shelter for
thumni 17os and stock. About the 1st
of October the Impatient fortune
hunters , bemoaning and cursing their
Inactivity , began to canvass the theory
of crossliig by some southern routo.
No ono , howovcr , appeared to know
anything of the country , and further
they had boon told by Fremont that
the route was impracticable. Still
they were not satisfied and finally dU-
onvprnd in the person of a Mormon ,
Maj IIant , a person who had boon
ever a southern route with n pack
train , and who declared it feasible for
wagons and offered to pilot them
Uir' u jli for $10 per wagon , A train
of 105 wagons and two carts was made
np , containing about 200 persons. The
rodeo took pl 03 at Ilobblo Greek , U.

the 21 of Ootobor , 1840 , an organiza

tain , Dr. MoOormlck of Iowa Olty ,
Io , , Bboond in command , and dividing
the train Into novon sections , each
with a ciptaln for gn&rd duty , and
with Maj , Hunt employed as guldo ,
The train rolled out and roanhod
Beavircmk , in Southwestern Utah ,
without any incident worthy of note.

llero thry were mot by Oapt. 0. K.
Smith with a pack train from St.
Louis , Mo. Oapt. Smith had led a
pack train ever the old Spanish South
ern trail and prof i mod to know a cut
off by which a hundred miles could bo
saved , by following np Beaver crook ,
leaving It near the point where the
Mountain Meadows massacre after
wards occnrred , and ( tossing a range
of mountains and striking the old
Spanish trail near the crossing of the
"Muddy. " Ho induced nine of the
men , led by Will Webster , a daring ,
reckless man , to join him , and then
the ontlro train followed him with the
exception of BO yon wagons and the
guldo , Maj , Hunt , who pronounced
against the route.
The train pulled ont , and following
the trali taken by Oapt. Smith , followed -
lowed It up on to the range of moun
tains between them and the "Muddy , "
Hero they found by his wandering
and winding trail that Oapt. Smith hid
lost his way. The train encamped and
sent ont pioneers to look ont a route
off the mountains. Two days were
spent in a frnltlosss search , and aa all
the pioneering parties had returned ,
with the exception of one composed of
the Rev. Mr. Brlorly and two young
mon , and reported it Impossible to got
off the mountains , It was determined
to retrace their stops and follow the
trail taken by Maj. Hunt. On the
morning of the third day the tiams
wore hitched io the wagons and every
thing prepared to start. Ihey were
detained a short tlmo while the men
burled a comrade who had died the
night before. While they were wait
ing Brlorly and party came In and
reported finding o practicable route
down a valley which opened ont
towards the southwest.
IN DEATH VALLEY.
The train was hero again divided.
Sixty-five wagons followed Brlorly
down Into what is now known as
Death valley , the balance of the train
returning and taking the Spanish trail
followed by Maj , Hunt , The experi
ence of the train of sixty-five wagons
which followed Brlorly "down Into tbo
valley of death" was a severe ono ,
They travelled for days without food
for their stock and barely water enough
to subsist on. Still they continued
on their course , leaving their way
dotted by the carcasses of their oxen ,
which fell down and died from starva
tion , Finding It Impossible to pro
ceed with the wagons , they wore
Gully abandoned , and , packing as
much provisions on their starving
cattle as they could carry , all started
west , every mau for himself. They
cook dlllarcnt routes some came out
by the Mohave and Oajon pasn , others
by the San Fernando pass and others
came ont on the plains north of f
Tehachopal pass and were found and
cared for by French and McKlnzlo.
Upon the abandonment of the wagons
a man named Bennett and hla family
and another named Arkano and hla
family , together with throe or four
young men remained in the valley.
Relief failing to come , John Rogers
and another young man were sent out
for relief , and patsing through San
Fernando pass , reached Los Angeles ,
and packing two animals with provis
ions i , wont out and brought the fam
ilies In , arriving at Ohiuo ranch on
the 2Gih of March.

The entire Death Valley party suf
fered most Incredible hardships , living
most of the tlmo on the carcasses of
their starved oxen , which afforded
but scanty nourishment , a even the
bones contained not a particle of mar
row. They traveltd e for days on fee
over the hot , burning sands , with a
very scant supply of water. Notwith
standing thisonly two deaths ocsnrred
on the journey. The seven wagons
under Major Hunt and the balance of
the train which turned back fro-n the
tlII
mountains and followed him all arrived -
rived in safety , the last of them arriv
ing at the Ohlno ranch on the 12th of
IiJ
January. They suffered great hard
ships and lost great numbers of their
cattle , but they brought the first wa
gons Into California by the southern
route from Utah. Oapt. 0. K Sulth
after wandering In the mountains for
some times , finally struck the "Mud
dy , " and , following It down to the
Spanish trail , succeeded In getting in
with ten animals out of seventy. The
nlno mon who joined him from the
emlgrrnt train at Bearer creek trav
eled with him for a week or morobnt ,
becoming dlsconted , they killed and

the leadership of Will Walker , started

southwest , but Walker Insisted on
leading them northwest. They finally
got Into snow , tholr provisions gave

two of the mon , Savage and Plnnoy ,
got up ono night and left them , and ,
crossing a range of mouutaiun to the
south ever thirty feet of snow , found
an Indian camp. The Indiana cared
for the wanderers , and , under the
guidance of ouo of them , they finally
reached Monterey In the spring of
1850.

on the lintels of Its door I noticed the

the \ past , and the walls of the rest o

considerable , and the only observable

Substitutes for Hops.
Now York San
The high price of hops this year has
produced activity in the business of
supplying a substitute which is
cheaper. Several preparations are
used. The subatitnteu can bo sold at
a profit when hops are 10 cents a
pound. As hops are now selling at
00 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
largo profit has induced the Invest
ment of American capital In the busi
ness.

ness Is so croat that even the amal
quantity of hops used to make a barrel

Item In the cost , The use of the sub
ntltuto la considered somewhat of i
secret in the business , but the goodi
are openly advertised , and warranted
to make boor aa bitter , as clear , and
of aa good keeping quality as can bo
done with the best hops. The naturi
of the ingrodlonts of the aubatituto i
kept a secret , but the makers ave
that it is not deleterious.
Of conrst ) , the enormous prlco o
hops this season has stimulated the
hop raisers to vigorous efforts to secure
a good crop next aeason , From Call
foruia it la reported that the plant
will bo one-fourth greater than last

the hop districts of this stato. As
hops lese their strength by ago , h Is

When there Is a plentiful crop hora
