DISCOVERY IN TEXAS.
Unearthing an Old Burial Ground of
Indians and Aztecs.

A correspondent writing from Del Rio,
Texas, says:
A discovery of immense archaeological
interest has recently been made near
Painted Cave, on the Southern Pacific
railroad, about the junction of the Pecos
and the Rio Grande. Mr.. Vandervoort,
who owns farm near the town mem
toned, found on his place after n recent
blown down and leaving the roots
exposed. In the earth loosened by its
fall and upheaved by its spreading roots
Which "o''af% upon inspection aH% proved proved
to be a human skull. The skull was
that of the Aztec. After two or three
feet had been removed almost every
uphcaval of the spades brought to light
bone or weapon or other object.
There was great number of arrow
heads, both of stone and OF glass, in the
manufacture of which tho Aztecs ex-
celled. But to set at rest all doubts as
to what people the bones had belonged
race was found This weapon is
short metal axe, with blades of glass.
The metal is supposed to be copper,
but the specimens are furnished, In
crusted by age and burial. Several
shields are among the relics, and on
being cleaned were found to be of brass, 4.
each skilfully engraved with an owl.
Copper knihcs and stone tomahawks are
abundant, and there are twenty or thirty
head-bands of silver and copper. There
IL also a helmet or casque of thin silver
with small hole in the TOP. The head
dress of an Mztecan officer was helmet
with topknot OF feathers. Silver armor
lcr legs from kncs to ankle was found
near the helmeted skull. One bony
hand still clutched a dart with three
copper points, aud held it so firmly that
it was necessary to keep hand and all.
Another yhastly object was pair of
clenched jaws, holding beneath their
discolored teeth small image engraved
on agate. This must have been the like
ness of god thrust into the mouth. A
number OF gold and silver pendants and
"A quantity of Aztec currency were
picked up. The latter consists of bits
of tin in shape like the letter T.
Among the human bones were min
glcd those of several animals, too small
TO have been cattle-horscs were, of
course, unknown--and too largo to
have been dogs. They were those of
ocelots, trained by the Aztecs for the
hunt and for battle. That the occlots
took an active part is shown by the fact
that the jaws of one held the severed
skull of an Indian, while the teeth of a
second were fastened on thigh bone.
In turn a tomahawk was still sticking in
his partially-cloven skull
