much as few movements Of this kind in
America have been Of such paramount i'm
portanco aud none more interesting to the
students Of vanished races. It will doubt
less be matter Of surprise to many per-
sons to learn that Mr. Cushing has been
for some time engaged in uneovering the
traces Of an ancient civilization, which be-
came extinct more than a thousand years
before Columbus discovered America.
AL through Arizona. New Mexico and a
part Of southwestern Colorado are found
ruins which show that the extreme west
ern part Of the American continent was in.
habited by a people learned in architec-
ture, astronomy, civil engineering, cloth
weaving, pottery and agriculture, even be.
fore the Aztecs gained foOthOld in the
ancient valley Of the AnAhuac. Save for
these scattered ruins this race Of people
have vanished utterly from the face Of the
earth. Whittier they went, or whence
they came no man knows, for no writer
record was left behind to describe theil
lives or explain their fate. 1t is 10 wrest
from the shifting sands Of the far south
west some definite knowledge of these
people that Mr.. Cushing is devoting tn,
best years Of his life and large sum oi
money, devoted for this purpose BY Bos
ton lady who is interested in the unrayel
ing Of the mystery.
History calls this ancient people th,
Toltecs. Tradition says that even the 1ol
tees had predecessors in thr!Ulmecs, al
though upon what ground this tradition i,
based has never been made clear. So fai
as we know the ToltecS came from th,
country Dsrth and west of Arizona anC
New Mexico to old Mexico centuries be-
fore history in this country began. TheJ
were superseded, or followed, in Mexict
by the Aztecs; whether by the fortunes o
war. or other causes is uncertain. Trace
of them have been found AZ far south a
Central America, hut here tradition itsel
comes to an end. Observing travellers who
have visited Mexico and Central Americi
assert that the Toltec ruins in those coun
tries denote people Of Egyptian origin
They can offer no explanation, however, o
the manner in which Cleopatras country
men could reach the American continent
while at the same time casting doubt mp
on the theory that the Toltecs came +
America from Asia by way Of Behrinl
strait and the Pacific coast.
If Mr.. Cushing shall be fortunate
enough to add to our knowledge Of thi
ancient and remarkable race he will hav
put hiS time and energies 10 good use. H

Miss Kate Field. who is now in
Boston, has taken firm stand against
prohibition, and in one OF her recent
addresses said:
people seem 20 think it range that q
woman should take my stand In this
matter, but l simply wish TO be what
most CT my sex is not-consistent. | am

Again, 1t creates new crimes that
usually peaceful citizens take . delight
IN violating, and thus brings on feeling
of contempt for ali law aud authority.
Besides, 1t is not the worst form OF in-
temperance, aud the evil charges against
II results more from the quality than the
quantity drank. My opposition TO pro-
hlbitton has drawn upon my head
naturally the enmity OF the Prohibition
ists, and con equently their abuse, aud
the result is they charge me with being
an agent of California wine syndicate.
"What led me 10 oppose the movement
really was what l saw out ia Iowa after
prohibition had been successful, and |
became then and there impressed with
the Idea that no ouch Incorporate and
unlawful actions and gross violence could

There is a decided change in the
status OF the soldiers who fought to
crush the rebellion since the present
administration has come into power.
Under the last administration the Grip
pied or disabled soldier, who humhly
asked for what Justly belonged to him,
was insulted aud denounced as a
treasury raider. Now, however, 1t ia
different, and every man who con
siders that he Is entitled 10 a pension
can rest assured that his claim will be
carefully and impaEtially considered,
and if well founded that he will re-
ceive every dollar that he is entitled 10
under the law, Commissioner Tanner
has recently issued an order In which
he says: "Wheneyer a penSioner ID
disabled in hand or foot in p degree
emitting him 10 S24 per month undei
the act of March 8, 1888, such pen
sioner shall by reason of that fact ht
entitled to the rate of $50 Per month
under the act OF August 4, 1883
This shows disposition on the par
oil the administration TO construe thu
pension laws in the most liberal man
per, and consequently there is ever
reason to believe that the descrvin
soldiers will receive all that they ar
entitled TO.
