Hundred* of Acre, of n Scene of Al- iiioat liiile.riilinlilr llemily In the Midst of Mile on Aide of Unrren nud Deadly Sand Flat*. Not half the plants of Death valley are known to scientists; most of those that arc known are little more than names and will never he more until the prying arm of the railroad shall have laid bare some of the secrets of tills vale of Hiuoin. Most beautiful and most plenty on the desert are the cacti, and the rapid ity with which their dry and apparent ly withered stalks put out blossom* under the touch of the rains is wonder ful. The largest and showiest blossom of them all grows on a short, stock stem which during the summer does not seem to have life enough to produee the magnificent waxy flowers, which are often as much as five Inches across. A cactus much larger than this—the barrel ouctus—has a very small and In significant bloom, while the tiniest of all, a low, creeping, round stemmed. Jointed growth, has an Immense pink flower, bcuuliful as any orchid aud rivaling the fairest rose of Persia In Its odor. Unfortunately the names of these rare species are not well known, and the commoner varieties, which arc also found on the coast slope, hear no such gorgeous array of blossoms. Old friends greet the traveler on the rim of Death valley (oo. There Is the chotln (pronounced ehoyah), which, while large and many branched, pro duces few or no flowers, reproducing Itself by "slipping." as our grand mothers were wont to say of their choice geraniums. Wherever an un usually long brunch falls to the ground It seems almost (6 work its way Into the earth, so soon do the shifting sands cover It. Then a process of rooting takes place, so that soon an entirely separate plant comes up a few feet from the parent. So it Is that great beds of cacti are formed throughout the desort. One noticeable thing about all the plants In and around Death valley Is that they grow low to the ground, for no living thing can stand agaiust the simooms that sweep this level floor for 2(XI miles on over Into the Nevada des ert. Those low glowers protect them selves from the drifting sand In a won derfully ingenious manner. When the plant first breaks from the ground It conies up not In one stem, as do the taller cacti, hut In many tiny, branch ing stalks, so that wlmt solid earth and rocks there arc among the sand clouds fall between these stalks and form a sort of openwork barricade. Against this the sand drirts, but does not choke out the life of thq plant. The winds of the desert always blow from the same direction, so that the barri cade Is always available, whether It be a rain, wind or Hand storm that Is blowing.

Wild animals oppressed liy heat are almost human In their actions. They seek shelter from the sun, thirst much for water and fall down at last sun- struck. The tigers of India seek jun gles nearly impenetrable to man, where in the pools tho* wallow for hours chin deeji in the water rather than endure the heat of the sun driv ing through the mass of foliage over- head, some the t'attle seek the woods and shaded spots when the sun begins to show Its fury, but they are soon driven out by a more deadly enemy, the armies of bloodthirsty and keenly weuponed bi sects, and resort to the hills. Curiously enough, many Insects prefer keeping In the shade to quenching tlielr thirst with blood. When the cattle seek the pools and streams lish gather around to snap up the tiles killed by the tails of the beasts. Fishermen see deer along Adiron dack and Maine lakes and streams in the hot days of summer. The deer In the streams nibble at a Illy pad now aud ngalii aud swim across to IslandH or the opposite shore. No mammal hears the heat so well as domestic cats. When dogs seek the shade cats stretch themselves out in the sun, and not till dogs pant In the shade will they move Into the shadow. When It Is hot cats drink a good deal nnd lie quietly In a sort of doze, as if thinking of ice heaps and snowdrifts. According to mi niihnnl collector, the polar hears seem to enjoy the heat of midsummer. When the sun heals down hottest these thick skinned brutes lie stretched out in the full glare, just as a dog or cat lies down before a lire In midwinter. The birds of the Helds, the roadside i birds, the sparrows and the pigeons bathe In the hot dust, hut also And de light In n |iiii 1, drinking great quanti ties of water and splashing about with the greatest enthusiasm. In England the rooks gather round tile sheep troughs waiting eagerly for the evening supply of water to he turned on. In Australia parrots and birds driven from their shady perches and flying over an opening la time of drought sometimes fall dead. The woodchuck retires to the moist depths of Its burrow, the squirrel to Its home tree. The hare lies la the long grass beside a brook In an alder bed. The snakes, the mud turtles, the drooillllg Inserts seek the cattle paths and road sands or some log In a pool of water on which the sun heals heavi est. The heat Is to them welcome.

The ship, beaten by the storm and In need of repairs, was compelled to lay In harbor for some time, and It was while there that her captain gave to one of the citizens, Thomas Smith, a slmill quantity of rice, which principally constituted the cargo.
