American Ruins.

ku-Aiu declined to visit this couatrv be-
cause wc had 10 ruins; aud the project
hn, Lcrn frequently br"Ached OF Importing
some ancient obelisk from Egypt or tumble
down castle OF the Rhine. to make good
our presumed deficiency Ia this respect
But whatever else we may lack, We Ger
;.luIy are not without our runs. This
continent Is full OF them-rutus which
although they may not compare In plctur-
esqueness with those OF the Old World,
will certainly rival the oldest OF them la
antGuity. The wonderful remains OF AZ
tees civilization In Mexico aud Centrai
America are well known but older tar than
these are those vestiges of an unknown
race which are found scattered all over
the United States, especially IN the Miss
issippi Valley and along the base OF the
Rocky mountains in Oregon, Utah, Color
ado and Arizona. Some traces of them
have been found also iD the Eastern States,
but they are not so well authenticated.
These ruins consist of mounds symetric-
ally raised and enclosed in mathematical
figures, such as tn" square. the octagon
and the circle. The largest OF them Gov
er .lx acres. and are over thirty-hve feet
high. Some Of cur famous cities, ere
St Louis and Chicago. are built on the
ruins of this vanqui>hed race.
In Wisconsin these mounds are built in
the shape OF various animals. such as the
buffalo bear, fox, wolf, turtle, eagle and
nlght-hawk. the expanded wings OF the
latter reaching two hundred and ntty ieet.
In these mounds have been found various
relics, such a. human bones, pottery, agri-
cultural implements. pieces of carpet, and
inscribed tablets. These mounds show
highly civilized people. They cultivated
the soil. wove garments, carved in clay
and stone, mined had a stable government,
laws, and religion, and temples were er-
ected upon these platform mounds for the
celebration of their mystic rites.
The recent discoveries and explorations
IN the Payson farm, Utah. and in Daven-
port country, Iowa, together with Profess"
or Hayden's report OF the discoveries OF
his exploring patty 10 southwestern Col
orsdo furnish some additional evidence OF
much interest and value In regard TO this
lost people and their lost arts. AT Payson
these mounds were six IN number, and
covered twenty acres OF ground within
were houses, the rooms oil whicn were as
perfect AS the day they were built, nicely
plastered. and containing various cooking
utensils. crockery ware and vases. Upon
one large stone jug was traced perfect
deIineation of the surrounding mountains.
CLAW moIds. needles,snd lasts OF stone
were also found, and wood carvings.
In one of the mounds were found two
skeletons, one six feet six inches 10 length.
with pipe in its mouth. aud a huge iron
weapon of some kind in its hand. I'VE

were an agricultural people, and had many
of the sciences known to us"

houses. cities, fortfications, aqueducts

Sitting Around.

They are sitting around upon barrels and
chairs,
Debating their owa and their neighbors' a.
fairs:
And the look OF content that Is seen on ezch

Seems TO say, 1--WE found my appropriate

Sitting srouDd.
In bar rooms and groceries calmly they sit.
And serenely chew borrowed tobacco, aud

While the stories they tell and the jokes that
they crack
Show their hearts have grown hard, and un-

While sitting around.
They've habit Of talking of other mems wives,
