OF this town Davis says /:

feet, 1.24O. OF this town Davis says:
It is the best sample of the ancient
mode of building. Here are two large
houses, three or four hundred feet in
length and about one hundred and fifty
feet wide at the base. They are situated
upon opposite sides of a small creek,
and in ancient times are said to have
been connected with a bridge. They
are five and six stories high, each story
receding from the one below it, and
thus forming a structure terraced from
top to bottom. Each story is d.
vided into numerous little compart-
ments, the outer tier of rooms being
lighted by small windows in the sides,
while those in the interior Of the build
ing are dark and are principally used IS
stOre-rooms. The only Meahz
of entrance is through a trap-doar in tho
roof, and you ascend from story to story
BY means Of ladders on the outside,
which are drawn up at night"
Their contact with Europeans has
modified somewhat their ancient style
of buildings, principally in substituting
dOorways in the walls of their houses for
those in the roof. Their modern bull
dings are rarely over two stories in
height, and are not distinguishable from
those of their Mexican neighbors. The
village is sourronnded by an adobe wall,
which is Just included within the limits
of the model, and incloses an area of
eleven or twelve acres in extent. With
in this limit are four of their estafas, or
secret council houses, These are cir

A Canary which Sings IS A Life on the
BIS Ocean Wave."

j. G. Christopher, barber at Balls
ton Spa, is the possessor of a remarkable
canary bird, the voice of which has been
developed in peculiarly painstaking
manner, so that now this educated"
songster can successfully render the
well-knOwn air, "a Life on the Ocean
Wave" The bird will commence to
MARBLE like any other of these pets,
but after uttering few notes will imme-
diately strike into the tune, and when
its voice has attained fun height the
above tune will be sung entire, and in a
manner that sounds singularly melodi-
Gus and attractive, literally setting to
note its natural vocal powers. This
was only achieved after the most dill
gent and patient attention. As soon IS
the bird was old enough to pick up a
living it was put in room apart from
all others, and a music box also placed
in the apartment that was kept per-
petually going, repeating the one tune
over and over again, so that this singu-
lar pupil had no other person to learn
from but that. After four months of
such apprenticeship, the owner was re-
warded by hearing his little favorite
render " A Life on the Ocean Wayen

Much speculation has been made with
regard to the reality of Mr.. Conant's
petrified man, each differing, and now
comes an interview with Denver as
sayer published in the Democrat of that
place. The assayer says in regard to
Mr.. Conant's ''man:"
"In August, 1875, FIVE of us were
prospecting in the vicinity of Pueblo.
In coming upon sandstone quarry, one
Of the party observed soft OF likeness
OF man drawn upon the rock. The in
cident occasioned deal of talk about
ancient creations, and the idea Of get
ting up a second Cardiff giant was then
favorabiy discussed. The party agreed
to undertake the task, and stone cut
ter named Saunders, who had been
working in the vicinity, and known to
be clever hand at modelling, was at
once sought out and sn agreement made
for the fsure. While the plan was in
progress one of the party, in e joking
way. said the thing ought to have tail,
as in ancient times men had tails or
inches long. 1t was decided among the
party that the figure should be known
as a petrified Aztec Indian, and that
they would resurrect him after six
months and impose him on the public
as such. The stone-cutter not seeing
the joke set to work and made the fig
ure, with tail appended. The price
paid the artisan was Sl35, and after he
had completed the figure it was buried.
The Muldoon' was made out Of sand
stone and dried by the cabin fire. which
partly accounts for the little moles on
the surface. After the burial-two feet
from the surface Of the ground--the
party went their ways to await the res
direction. A few Of the prospectors
had got wind Of the proceedings and
were keeping an eye on the party, and
so they dispersed in different directions.
Finally they became scattered, some in
New York and the remainder in differ
erent portions of the country. l had
forgotten nearly about the matter when
the discovery was chronicled in the pa
pers. But l considered it best to keep
still about it, and it was only through
accident that ] said any thing in regard
to the matter"

From early morning till dark he is on
the march, and at all hours of the day

tary wandering. His special mission
seems to be picking up pins. Not one
escapes his eye, and the lapel of his
coat, where he sticks them, is always
covered. Occasionally when he meets
a little child he will stop it, take a pin
of his coat, and with benignant smile
hand it to the youngster and resume his
walk. Upon meeting him a day or two

face which l had never seen before, and

of money in one Of our broken savings
