metimes evaporation gets the best of them.North-west of Mud Lake, over in California, isHoney Lake, another remarkable body of water.It is sometimes dry so that teams can be drivenacross its bed, and then again it is on the ram-page. Its waters resemble soap-suds, and areadmirably adapted for washing purposes. Whenlashed by the winds, its waters become a rollingmass of foam, and afford a magnificent specta-cle to the beholder. If it only had permanentwater of the character alluded to, it would be anexcellent location for a huge laundry. Staqe lioiites to Lake Tahoe.—A favoriteroute to Lake Tahoe is via Carson City. It maybe more easily reached and seen on the west-ward tour, than to wait and include it on theeastward return. After a visit to Virginia City, the tourist willreturn to Carson City, remain over night at agood comfortable hotel, the Ormsby House,—whose proprietor considers it i/ie highest tonedhotel in Nevada and next morning, at 8.30 a.M., take Bentons Stage for Tahoe.
