" Men and Animal* Fall Victims to tht i Poisoned Waters. ;c j The death of Robert "Watson, a cat'? | r. tie man, after drinking of the waters i, I of "Death Spring,in the Rabbit j, ! Hole mountains, again brings into .1 , prominence this terror of Nevada ^ stockmen. The spriug is situated in i i i Humboldt county, Nevada. Its wa* j v ; ters are so impregnated with arsenic : > 1. that death results to most creatures that drink from it. Running from I the spring is a tiny stream, clear as 11 it crystal, which sinks into the ground ] >r i about a hundred yards from the ! spring. Along the banks of this ,r 1 stream aro to be found the bones of j1 j hundreds of small animals, and oven 1 ;e J of deer, sheep and cattle that have drank of the water aud died. ! Stockmen have bniit r. high fencs ; about the spring and. so far as possi- j ( i b!e, have enclosed the stream. It - i seems impossible, however, to keep stock from drinking the water. Situ- 1 . atod many miles from any other water i supply, cattle will get to it, no matter 1 :r what precautious arc taken to prevent r! them. Hundreds of head of stock are ! lost each '? on account of it. i' - ! Watson 1 lived in the vicinity " for a o.i.u-ter of ,a century and was |( wcii aware of the fatal properties of the soring. He was out hunting stock when lie became separated from i' , his companions. He lost his horse and w;;.. obliged to follow them ou 5 loot. ' ' i The wecon 1 day after his mishap, afier being nearly * .rty '-ours with- j, out water, he vouch' . the spring. Hi3 thirst was overpo .eriug and, in his q_ partial delirium. ..e drank of the poisr onous water, much the same as ehipt wrecked sailors drink from tho ocean 1 ?n wiicit their thirs: becomes unbearable, n- His friends, who had expected liiin to 2S overtake them every hotir, had, in the ; D' meantime, concluded that some misjjj i hap hatl occurred, and turned back a to look for him. They found hira shortly after he had drunk of tho deadly waters. He was still alive, but : suffering the greatest agony. All that could be done in the desert tc relievo | j him was done, but without avail. Ho j died within au lionr after his companions found him. , A similar spring is to be found bei! i twppii Mountain Meadow and Susan vi!le, Lassen county, California. The I j i waters of this spring and the stream { ! that runs from it ure green and uainj viting, unlike those of the Nevada j I j spring in this respect. The bones of S I many deer, cattle, sheep atrd wild I animals that have tasted of the water * j of spring or stream are to be found j ' in the vicinity. Mockmen have built jf . a seven-foot board fence around the I I spring, and on top of the fence have | pat several Hues of barbed wire, that , stock may be kept from it. Wagner** of America. 5 j Although Wagner never was iu this ;; l country, tuo possiomiy 01 m? cumiug | j over bore is referred to often iu his ! ! published correspondence. In fact, 1 I i be made America a stand-und-deliver I argument with bis friends, several times threatening to forever put aside 9 bis "King of the Nibclung" and to ; ^ i cross the ocean to earn a competency !L j unless they contributed to his support. ? ; That Wagner regarded America as i ** a gold mine well worth exploitation by jd . foreigu artists appears from a letter ' I which in 1848 he wrote to Franz j * , Loebmann, music director at Riga, j ul whose brother wanted financial assistance to go to America with an orches' tra. Wagner advised Loobmanu to j i assist his brother. Ho instances the <>an? nf a flerman musician who went to America an a poor man and in a | very short time was in receipt of an 8 excellent income; adding that a whole orchestra would certainly be stil 1 more lucky, for "in a country where t villages are constantly growing into i cities in rive years there can be no lack of opportunities for the settlein I ment of whole bauds of musicians." _r Could anything be more deliriously u naive than this last quotation??
