A Terrible Tale of Suffering.
A correspondent of the Sacramento
Union thus relates the sufferings of
Frank Gilbert, who recently crawled
into Desert Station, almost dead from
thirst, hunger and fatigue. The narra
tive is from the lips of the sufferer,
with the declaration that nil the state
ments are verified by Hall, Caughlin,
Lent and others. He said:
"1 had been at work forjudge Colby
of Havilab, Superintendant of the Joe
Walker mine, and started with a good
horse to visit the Slate Range mines,
and arrived here Wednesday. After a
good night's rest T left for Slate Range
Thursday morning at 8 o'clock. The
weather was quite hot, but I filled my
canteen with water and started off; at
Mesquite Spring, eleven miles away,
1 found water, arriving there about
noon, and after a rest I filled my can
teen afresh and started for Bedrock
Springs, the next water, have full and
clear Instructions from Ball as to the
route. These springs are a little off
the road, and somehow 1 passed the
trail anil missed the springs; to next
water was thirty miles of desert, and
in the afternoon I had culled on my
canteen often, and by 3 o oloek I had
exhausted Its contents, and by 4
o'clock was very thirsty, the sun pour
ing down intense heat, and the dust
from a land storm almost blinding me
and my horse, now showing signs of
great thirst and fatigue. Thinking to
strike Bedrock Springs every rod I
urged my horse forward, but as mile
after mile was left behind and the sun
sank behind the hills, 1 became con
scious that I must haVe passed the
springs; but I kept on until dark, and
then turned to retrace my way, well
aware that I must have water for my
horse or I would never reach
Slate Range, across that thirty mile
desert; about midnight, becomingsat
isfied that [ had lost the spring trail,
I tethered my horse to a bush and
slept two or three hours, but at the
tlrst break of day I started again and
left the road for a canon where I
thought there must be water. I went
up the canon four or five miles but
found no trace of water. I then began
to suffer Intensely for water and took
across the mountains, throwing away
my pack to lessen the weight on the
horse. At about 10 o'clock t reached
the summit, when my horse weaken
ed and refused to go a step. I tied
him up and started down the canon
on the east for water; the heat had
now become great, and I was suffering
till the agony of hell, but nerved by
the thought of dying of thirst I ac
tually ran a long way. and at last,
aware that there could be no water
found, started back to the spot where I
left my horse. I was becoming so
fully exhausted and almost overcome
with the heat, and without reflection,
or in delirium, I can't say which, I
took off my vest, trowers and woolen
shirt and threw them away; slowly f
dragged myself to my horse, mounted
him and started to the west, but in a
few hundred yarda he again stopped
and refused to go ahead. I then saw
certain death before nic unless I could
obtain solne relief. My body was ex
posed almost naked to the torrid sun,
and was becoming blistered, my
tongue was parched, swollen and sore,
and I was suffering more than I can
tell you; it occurred to me'that my
only way to live was to bleed my poor
horse and drink his blood, but I had
thrown away my kuife with my cloth
ing, and trod no Instrument to bleed
him. I hunted, around and found a
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
piece of slat»> rock which was sharp on
one edge, and with this I succeeded In
opening v vein <>n tin* inside olt' hind
leg, and the blood trickled forth. I
putmv iiionth to the wound and moist
ened my tongue with the hot, pungent
blood, which, though hitter ami
naseous, afforded nic some relief, and
in a few nioments f was aide to swal
low, and then 1 drank all 1 could; and
tearing open the wound, I held my
hat and caught at least a quart of blood
which 1 afterwards drank and then
laid down In the shade of a
bush; the blood made me quite sick
at the stomach for a little while, but I
soon got stronger, and, conscious that
my life depended on my endurance,
started down the mountains, lying
down frequently in the shade of
bunches of sage brush; whither I was
going I knew not, only that I prayed
to God for strength and direction to
water; I kept on until dark, and then,
having reached a dividing ridge laid
down; the hot air was blowing hard,
and singed mm like a furnace, hut with
my hands 1 dag down Into the sand
to moist earth and showered" it over
my body to cool my agony, for the re
lief i had experienced from drinkinir
blood had all departed, and all my suf
ferings returned tenfold. At last T
fell asleep and must have slept several
hours (as near as I can tell, till mid
night,,) and when I awoke the wind
bad become fiercer and cold, and I
was so chilled and benumbed that I
could scarcely move, and racking
pains as sharp as a knife pierced me
through and through. 1 rubbed my
cramped limbs and tit last got so I
could stand; when by swinging my
arms and stamping the ground 1 was
enabled to walk, and although my
feet were so swollen that 1 could not
put on my shoes, and the sand had
worn the flesh from my soles, 1 started
about daybreak down to the eastward,
and about!» o'clock, when the sun had
become almost intolerable, struck the
road which I came in and from the
bones of a skeleton horse which I re
membered, I knew I must be twelve
or fifteen miles from Mesquite Springs,
and although nearer Bedrock Springs;
I felt it unsafe to find an unknown
place, and one, too, which I had first
missed, and I was assured that my
only chance for life was in reaching
Mesquite Springs. i started, and
every half or quarter of a mile, I would
dig down to damp sand and get tem
porary relief by a regular sand bath,
and resting a little while go forward.
Oh! sir, if you only knew how I suffer
ed during that struggle for life along
that terrible road; now 1 prayed for a
wagon; for a breath of cool air; for a
drop of water to cool my fevered
throat and parched mouth. My feet
were bleeding, my fingers wore to the
quick digging, and my tongue pro
truding from mouth and cracked with
heal and fever; unable to swallow
and almost suffocated, my body cov
ered with burning blisters, and my
strength almost gone. 1 thought of all
1 had ever done, of friends and life, and
then came the thought of death in that
terrible desert, it was horrible, so 1
walked and crawled along, and about
1 o'clock I think, reached the spring.
1 remembered now drinking water
had caused death, and although I
crawled and rolled into the spring,
whose waters were as sweet as life,
and were life, 1 only bathed my
mouth and tongue until the swelling
subsided, and then I drank a Cup full
or so. For about an hour I lay in that
glorious spring, and gradually my
fever stopped and my burning throat
quenched. And then the pangs of
hunger came on, and I felt almost
fainting with its terrible gnawing. 1
then left the spring, and after the
longest hours I ever knew, reached
this place In the condition these gen
tleman tell you. 1 shall never forget
their nor your kindness, and may (<od
grant death at once rather than a sec
ond journey of sixty-four hours with
out water."

AS THE CHARMING CHARAC
ter of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara, becomes known to the world,
it Is not surprising that a widespread and
growing Interest in this region should be
awakened. It is the constant aim of the Press
to furnish perfectly reliable information on al
points of interest to tourists, Invalids and
home-seekers, which we are now able to do
with greatly Increased facilities.
While tho PRESS seeks to promote the
prosperity of all Southern California by all le
gitimate and honorable methods, it Is more
directly Interested In the growth and coming
greatness ot Santa Barbara, 'The unequaleu
loveliness of the climate, Its almost Incredible
hcalthfuliiess, the beauty of the scenery, the
wondrous variety and fertility of the soil, the
almost unlimited range of products which
flourish there without irrigation, will be
known from time to time by facts Which can
not be controverted, In the columns of tho
PRESS.' Any intelligent person can become
familiar with this pin t ofthe State by rending
the PRESS for a year.

TESTIMONIALS x
University of California, "j
Department of Languages. >
Oakland, July 11.1872. J
Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind
ley has been a student in my department of
the University for five consecutive terms, vis:
from September, 1870, to April Bd, 1872. During
this time she studied the French, the Spanish
and the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency and attend
ance, her average credit mark for live terms
being 97 percent.
On entering the University, Miss Lindley
Possessed already such knowledge of the
rench and Spanish Idioms as to be able to
speak them with ease, fluency, correctness,
and a pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly fa
miliar with the theory and philosophy, as well
as with the application of these two tongues;
and she may safely be recommended as a enn
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French and Spanish languages.

TO THE FARMERS OF LOS

1o the new IMPROVED GANG PLOW, pa
tented by D. A. Manuel, of Napa, and adopted
by the Granges of this State. The points of
superiority are: Lightness of draft, It being a
centre draft; a castor wheel in the rear, which
makes it turn in a space sufficient to accom
modate its length: it has a falling pole and
can, by sliding, be adjusted to tne driver's
weight, and removes all pressure from the
horses' necks. We only ask formers to call
and examine for themselves.
