A PORTUGUESE POMPEII.

NJ. Magitot, a member OF the Prehistoric Con-
eress which met at Lisbon last autumn, reports
on Portuguese POmpeii, which he had occa-
sion to inspect while on u tour to the territory
of Tertiary Slick at Otta. The place If called
Santarem and Citania. The latter Is the gen
era Portuguese name for ruins or ancient
towns, which cover entire hills in tho ncighbOr-
hood Of Braga. The most important OF these
very old town. ruins ia the Citania di Brteiros,
which occupies nearly kilOmetre square, and
is supposed to be of Celtic origin. Circular
walls, streets, squares, large architectural mon
umcnts, and even o number Of houses have re-
tanned their typical forms. For twenty centu-
lies this Citana was buried below debris. SOIL

quito "a primitive state of civilization is appa-
rent. Its architecture and plastic ornamental
ton point to a somewhat advanced state OF art

their general character recall those OF India and
China, which the wellknOwn Lyons archGO0-

made by Mi. Leigh Smith last year on the coast
of Franz Josef Land, including also general

shores of Franz Josef Land with comparative
