AN IDOL OF MouND-sulLDERs.
The Modest Clay Deity OF the Early Amer
u1cAn Heather.

The Modest Clay Deity OF the Early Amer
uicAn Heather.
The State Historical society was en-
riched recently by an image Of pottery
supposed to be an idol Of some prehis-
toric race, probably the mound-builders,
says the Topeka Capital. The idol was
found near Aron, Independence county,
Ark, and was dug from a mound by
relic-hunters along with a number of
decayed human bones, copper arrow
heads and broken domestic utensils. 1t
is the property Of G. w. Hume, of
Strasburg, Mo. The idol is five inches
in diameter. 1t is rudely constructed,
having evidently been formed by hand,
or at best very crude tools. from COM
mon clay and afterward hardened by
being dried in the sun.
The idol represents human figure in
Il kneeling posture, the arms extending
at the side. The features are rudely
formed, yet, notwithstanding this, are
not altogether repulsive, the nose being
gracefully aquiline and the lips well
formed. The ears are missing, but the
remnants show that they were adorned
with rings. The cody is "squatty,"
and might be said to resemble toad.
At the top of the head there is hole
which seems to have a purpose, prob
ably that. of fastening head dress to
the figure. The image would hardly be
catalogued with the works of art, but
tits, nevertheless, an interesting relic.
The race whose deity was represented
by this clumsy bit of clay inhabited the
Mississippi valley from the great lakes
to the gulf at time to which the ira
ditions of man runneth not. Who they
were, where they came from, what their
manner of life was, is all a mystery.
True, many mounds, excavations and
burying grounds of this lost people have
been discovered, but so far they have
given but little Of their history. That
they lived and died before the race of
American Indians existed is proven by
the fact that the traditions of the latter
race. contain no references to this lost
people although their mounds and
relies arc mentioned. Many mounds of
this kind are found in Missouri, iInnois,
kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana,
and few have been discovered in
nearly all of the states in the Missis-
sippi valley.

BETTER THAN A CAT.
a Pet Snake That Occupies n Favored
Place in Farmers Household.

4 Pet Snake That Occupies n Favored
Place in Farmers Household.
A Niagara county farmer tells of a
snake which has been gliding about his
promises for the past ten years. The
snake is about f our feet long, is some over
three inches IL thickness at the abdomen
and has an open and engaging counte-
nance. Iii snul-eShip was first brought
to the farmers notice in 1881 by the Sus-
piGiouS actions of his son and heir. The
boy ono day attempted to kill the fam
lily cat, which had long been his favorite

IT, dog The family was at loss to
c:tplain his peculiar actions until one
Cay it was discovered that the lad was
l:@CpinE snake in his bedroom. He
led the reptile on milk stolen from the
pantry, and took the strange pet to bed
with him nights. The parents at
first were greatly Mortified and wanted
to kill the snake, but the boy protested
aad at last his wishes were regarded.
1t was found that tho animal was harm
l:Ss, and at last the family came to
look upon the reptile with considerable
'svor. lie keeps the premises free from
r1dcnts and saves the expense of feed
ing cats and dogs.
During the first five years of his resi-
tHnce with the family, says the buffalo
illqUircr, the snake retired to the eel

A DYNAMITE WRECK.
The Lafayette House Fired by nm In
ecndiary and the Structure De-
moiished by Hidden Bombs.

ST. JosErII. Mo-. Dec. &c. Al 1
o'clock this morning an alarm OF fire
was turned in from the Lafayette
house. The firemen responded prompt
Nv, and upon arriving at the scene found
fierce blaze raging i'm the sitting room
on the ground floor OF the hotel, caused
by an explosion. An examination re-
vealed that the plasfer.ng and weather
boarding on the north side OF the hotel
had been dug out with hatchet or an
AK.
The lower floor of the building in
which the explosion took place is
divided into two rooms. These We're
occupied by Sam Yates, n barber, who
formerly did business on Frederick
avenue. I'm the front room is his bar
Der shop, and the back room was used
as sleeping quarters for himself and
wife and three little children. Just be-
fore the explosion took place Yates,
who had been awakened by the fire
alarm, aroused his wife ana children
and took them into the street Their
sleeping-room was terribly wrecked,
the entire north end Of IL having been
blown ont, and had the Yates family
been two minutes later in getting out
of bed all of them would either have
been instantly killed or terribly man
glcd
1t Is the prevailing opinion that the
explosion was caused by dynamite
bombs.
The hotel is most disrcputablc one,
but the inmates seldom attract the at
tention OF the police. and little is
known of the place. IL is inhabited by
roomers and boardcrs. all of foreign
birth. and nearly all Russians or
Poles. At the time of the
anarchist execution ia Chicago
there were threats of an uprs-
ing here. but IL was promptly SUR
pressed, and later trouble with avowed
anarchists was similarly put down. At
that time the leader, Henry Christ, de-
clared that means were at hand To de-
stroy the city If necessary, and IL was
believed that dynamite had been con
ccaled by these people. Christ, who
has since left the city. lived near the
Lafayette house. and the crowd which
congregated there was under his leader
ship. The authorities now are in
clined TO believe that the explosion was
caused by part OF the dynamite stored
by the anarchists. aud that more is
concealed Ina at least two other portions
OF the city
