people OF the republics Of the South are
active In their efforts to secure at that
great exhibit, an adequate display Of
ancient American ouriosltlcs.
Last July the Government Of Hon.

the ruins within It's borders to the
Museum Of Archaeology aud Eth.
noloey at Cambridge, Mass, for a
period OF ten ycats. The authorities Of
that Institution Immediately took stepi
to have the country thoroughly ex.
ploged. A company was formed and
mn expedition arranged by which the
most exhaustive research could be
prosecuted. In the latter part Of De.

safcly In Central America, and pro.

extensive ruius exist. Copan is siIuat-

corner Of Honduras which adjoins
Guatemala on northwest and Salvador
on southwest. The ruins are scattered
over n large area on the left bank VI the
river. They are now halfburied by

terraced ediilccs, temples, mansions
and various other kinds Of works.
What are supposed to be aliars covered
with hicroglyphic or symbolic figures
abound. The inscriptions In the In

preserved as when frat carved. But
those on the outside, owing TO tho con

are undecipherable.
Similar ruins exist IN Yucatan,

MIR. G. s. NAWAN, one Of the
speakers at the "Iiberal" rally ri the
Walker pavilion, on Saturday night,
paid high compliment to the in-
togrity Of the DISCREET NEWS, which
we duly appreciate. He made, how.
ever, a rather Illogical application OF n
paragraph from It's columns, which lao
read for the benefit OF his h carers. The
gentleman said:

"If you want the advice Of tho Desc.
