Colton of Kansas City, Is one of the survivors of the band of "Jayhawkers' which marched across Death valley In 1849, says the Kansas City Star. Each year the survivors of this band hold a reunion at the home of one of the survivors. There are only four survivors now, and this year the reunion was held at the ranch of Mr. Colton near Eddyvllle, Neb. The "Jayhawkers" were a company of 35 men and one woman, who left Galesburg, 111., May 1,184s, for the newly discovered gold fields In Cali fornia. October 15 they entered Death valley and began the march of 800 miles across Its dreary waste of sand, alkali, nitre and borax. Upon this march their cattle died and the wag ons were abandoned. Some were crazed with thirst. Others starved to death. Others, too weary to march further, lay down and died. When the company emerged into green fields February 4, 1860, more than hulf of them were missing. The four survivors are Mr. Col ton, John Groscup, Latonvllle, Cal.; L. Dow Stevens, San Jose, Cal., and Mrs. Juliette W. Briar, Lodl, Cal. All of these were at the reunion upon Mr. Colton's ranch February 4. This band of "Jayhawkers" Is said to be the first white men to have crossed Death valley, which Is 1000 feet below the surrounding country, and 200 feet below sea level. One of the strongest men of the company, who entered Death valley weighing 150 pounds, weighed only 64 pounds when he came out. II. E.

Business of Shipping Stolen Horses From Texas Into Cuba Is Carried on Hundreds of Texas Horses Are Stolon Each Year. American horse thlves are extend ing their operations Into the field of export trade. The Houston, Texas, Post, gives the following account of stolen horses being shipped from that state into Cuba. The Post says; Sheriff Anderson is authority for tne statement that a great many horses are Being stolen In and about Houston and shipped to Cuba. At least, he states, a great many horses are being stolen In this Immediate vl cinlty and shipped out. He con eludes that they are being shipped to Cuba from the fact that horses are In big demand there and that it is about the easiest and quickest place to reach by those who desire to run stock out of the country In a hurry. During the past several months many scores of horses have been stolen from people In Houston. The sheriff always, upon notification, gets busy and wires and sends postal cards over the country, as well as publish Ing descriptions of the missing anl mals In the sheriff's department of the Post. In many Instances the horses have been foi:nJ!, but In many Instances the animals disappeared so suddenly, leaving no trace whatever behind that Mr. Anderson has found the only solution for It, that they are being shipped to Cuba. He states that he believes he has a line on the situation, and has learned enough to convince him that there Is regular organized gang of horse thieves operating here, and that the gang has connections In different por tlons of the state. Houston Is not the only place that has suffered at the hands of these gangs. It would appear, for during the past several months hundreds of animals hay been stolen all over the state. There Is hardly any doubt In the minds of the officials that the bulks of the horses stolen over the state are concentrated near Houston and from the rendezvous shipped over to Cuba. Should Sheriff Anderson be correct In the belief that he has a line on the gang operating here and should he be successful in running this gang down, it will doubtless have the effect of breaking up the many other gangs in the state.
