 Leave of absence was granted 10 District Attorney Morrison for 30 days from March lst.
 The contract was awarded to F. G. Parker to remove the wall from the east side of the court house, also for the erection of a new water closet.
 Mir. c. Nj. Clark, county commis- sioner for the Columbian Exposition appeared before the Board relative to a position from numerous tax payers asking for an appropriation of $1.00O, to enable the commis- sioner to proceed with the collec- tion of an exhibit of the resources of this county.
 The commissioner testified that he had been notified that the terri torial board had only apportioned S6Ss, and had not even paid that amount and owing to such negli- gence the further gathering of the exhibit was an impossibility, and in order that the interests of the county may not suffer through such negligence, the following resolution was presented and adopted
 RESOLVED, That c. Nj. Clark is hereby authorized to proceed with the collection of the Yayapai eoun- tY exhibit and his actual expenses, freight to Prescott, and salary of three ($S) dollars per diem for his sserSISceS aud the payment of the same is hereby guaranteed upon presentation of assigned accounts of such expenses to the board, to an amount not to exceed $500.
 The help thus extended is in- tended only as temporary advance = assigned vouchers being held as a claim against the territorial board who have failed to aPportion to this county the amount or in the manner prescribed by law.
 The law creating the territorial board and the appropriation of S0,S55, expressly states that the apportionment shall be based upon the amount of taxes paid to the ter ritorial treasurer, which would give Yavapai county S6,231, ,24, of which amount Commissioner Clark has been allowed only S6S2, only a DOT ton of which has been paid.
 Adjourned to meet at the call of the chairman.

times in regular streets and had two or more
stories. were usually Of cobble stones and
rubble. The more important buildings were
faced with dressed stone. mortared and plas-
tered inside and out with adobe earth and white
washed with white clay. They had no roofs.
because the rock shelter served for that pur-
pose and the climate was SO warm and dry that
there was no danger of catching cold from the
exposure. As a safeguard against enemies they
had no doors, the occupants entering through
loophole-like windows by ladders of rope.
These were timid people. well advanced in
their peculiar civilization. but unable to cope
with their fierce savage neighbors.
wONEN's AND CHILDREN's WORK.
Doubtless the women and children were en-
ployed to gather stones and fetch mortar for
building. That the stucco laid upon the
walls was spread by hands is proved BY the
marks of the pores of the skin left on its sur
face. Occasionally the whole print of a hand
l. left. In this way Is preserved impression
OF the slender fingers of woman, dead for
nobody knows how many centuries: likewise
the chubby palms of little girls and bows with
every crease and dimple reproduced. One of
the most interesting traces in the plaster is
very excellent cast of a corn cob. Eighteen
feet beneath one of these ancient structures
was discovered a petrifed human skull. the
brain cavity filled with sOlditied sand.
Whereas the poor and humble among these
people dwelt in small and often isolated houses
the palaces of the rich and powerful were on
superb scale. In such a castle as that to be
shown in the picture az Chicago the front

RELICS OF CLIFF JEWELLERS.

In Asia Minor towns are clustered around the
ancient rock shelters, which are even yet in
use TO some extent. Some OF these caverns are
so far modernized as to be deliberately frescoed
and carved within, serving as chapels OCCASION
ally. The chalky geological formation in which
these hollows are found has been wrought by
the elements into all sorts of fantastic shapes,
resembling castles and fortresses, or more often
having the form of lofty cones. 1t is a weird
country in which the prehistoric cliff dwellers
of Colorado and New Mexico lived-a region of
mirages which cheat the eve and of echos
which haunt the wind-blown caves. Many of
the caverns are whispering galleries filled with
strange murmurs while under certain atmos-
pheric conditions the prospects offered to the
eve are of mysterious lakes and landscapes
which have no real existence. Surely the super
stitious barbarians of old must have imagined
themselves beset by demoniac influences.

COAST SURVEY.


tunately it happens that there is no such range
Of mountains parallel to the coast" as was
described and supposed to exist. and hence it
has been found necessary to avail Of an addi-
tional provision Of the treaty. that wherever
the summit OF the range of mountains referred
toshail be at . greater distance from the coast
than ten marine leagues the boundary shall be
formed by line drawn parallel to the wind
ings Of the coast, but never more than ten
marine leagues from the shore.
THE INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT.
1t would be inordinately expensive, il not alb
solutely impracticable in that bleak and DESC
late mountain country, to survey q continuous
boundary line which should meet these require
ments by winding parallel with and thirty miles
from the innumerable indentations Of the coast
at every point and for this reason the British
and United States governments agreed last
summer, by treaty concluded at Washington
between Secretary Of State Foster and Charge
d Ahaires Herbert, to execute q coincident or
the Portland canal to Mt. st. Elias, and thereby
come into possession Of such information a.
would enable commissioners OF the two govern
ments to adjust the dispute satisfactorily to
both sides without mourning the expense Of q
more minute and exhaustive survey The two
commissioners provided for, SO far as they
may be able to agree, are to make q joint re-
port to their governments, and such facts a.
they may not agree upon are also to be SUBJ
mitted, either jointly or severaIly. Az soon az
the reports are prepared the two governments
are plsdgsd 70 proceed at once to The consider

rooms were used for living and sleeping in.
while the dark back rooms served for storage
purposes. There room for corn and an
other for beans-small quantities of both vege-
tables have been found in these compartments
and other kinds of food were similarly slowed
away. in tine central rart of the structure
the kitchen. where sheep were roasted in pit
and cakes of acorn paste were baked on smooth
hot stones. The refuse was thrown in heap
outside. The upper rooms had communicating
doors and outer apertures leading into the back
part o. the cave.
Bu. by far the most important of every such
great house was the sacred room, utilized for
purposes of religious ceremonial. 1t occupied
the whole of a circular tower. which was some
times FORTY feet in diameter. with double
triple wall of hewn stone. dressed on the ont
side to the curve This tower constructed
without regard to cost OF labor or convenience,
being regarded as indispensable. The only
trance 10 it was apt 10 be through tube-,ke
passage twenty feet in length and only two feet
in diameter that admiJtance was only to be
gained by crawling. This safeguard
against intrusion. Nothing is known of the re-
hgion of the people. save that they worshiped
the sun. Their houses usually faced the east.
SOME HOUSES OVER POUR STORIES.
Some of the houses had four or more stories.
The floors were made of cedar logs. the irresu.
larities filed in with smaller poles and twigs
and covered with a carpet of cedar bark. The
cedar Is perfectly preserved today owing to the
dryness of the climate. In Inat region the
cedars in the forest do not rot. Dead. they
stand erect. solid and sapless. the winds and
whirling sands carving them INTO forms of fam
tast,o beauty. Finally they are literally blown
away in atoms OF fine dust.
Such fortified town in a rock-shelter as has
been described may have had l 900 more in

ac-es of waving corn and corrals of sheep.
which afforded the people subsistence in time
of peace They grew beans also and the forest
supplied them with acorns and pine nuts-the
latter esteemed great delicGcy to this dav in

for approaching foes was kept up from the
watch towers on top of tine cave dwellings far
up the canyons side. At sigma! OF danger

were safe. 1t must have been melancholy
thing for ;hem to see their crops and focks
destroyed by savages, as doubtless often hap
pened.

nothing of metals. 1ney cut down trees with

alton and establishment Of Q permanent and
final boundary line.
That is the program which Is now to be pur-
sued The first preliminaries to this seasons
work were looked after last summer by our
government in a way that is quite interesting
to the lay reader. The initial task was 10 fix
the latitude and longitude of Sitka The lati-
tude could readily be determined by a we'll
known astronomical process. but the ascertain
ment Of the longitude was a matter of more
difficulty. To do this a bright young man of
the coast survey staff was dispatched to Tacoma.
Wash. with seven costly chronometers in his
custody. He took passage In q steamboat ply
Ing regularly between Tacoma and Si.ka and
during the season he accomplished no less than
nix round trips. On starting from Tacoma he
set all his chronometers accurately by Tacoma
time, and on arriving at SItka he COM
pared the mean time averaged by the
seven with the time indicated by the
best Regulators" to be consulted in
Sitka. SO as to ascertain the difference Of time
between the two points. Then. setting his
chronometers carefully by Sitka time, he
started back to Tacoma, and on reaching that
port compared the time there with the mean
time indicated by his chronometers Some Of
the chronometers Of course ran trihs faster
than Others and the most reliable results could
be had only by considering the average. The
nye subsequent trips were taken for purposes
OF veritcation. lest the results noted on the first
trip should be In any degree misleading. From

Light, Love, Life.

At the close Of DR.. Bartlett's Easter sermon
last Sunday morning at the New York Avenue
Church he read a short poem, to which his dis
course had been directed throughout and Of
which he had spoken in terms of the highest
praise. 1t was based upon sentence In one
of DR.. Bartlett's addresses: There are but
three definitions Of God in Scripture-Ligh.,
Love, Life" The poem was afterward sent to
DR.. Bartlett in an envelope that contained moth.
ing but the sheet upon which it was written.
1t was unsigned and the author is unknown. II
attracted great deal Of favorable attention at
the time it was read and is considered to be q
work Of real merit. 1t was as follows:
Close lower the clouds,
And all about me gathers blacklist night
Blind,-I would wander dazed and lost
But ''GOd is Light"
Earth's friends fOrsake,
And those whom best serve ungrateful prove:
Lone life would be, and drear,
But "God Is Love"
Death CALLS
And sudden quiet follows busy strife;
unfruitful all LIES labor and Its pain
But "God Is Life.'
Then on
Darkness. nor foes, nor death shall fright.

The whole party will remain six months this
season. and it will probably require two seasons
more TO complete their worh. unless the weather
this summer and next shall prove exceptionally
favorable. One or Two members of the party
will be detailed, in accordance with a previ-
Gus arrangement. to accompany the Canadian
party In their reconnaissance. and reciprocaily
one or two members of the Canadian expedi-
ton will be permitted TO join our party and
observe their wora. for the mutual information
and enlightenment of the two governments.
The steamer Patterson will be used princi-
pally In the survey of Sitka harbor. and the
Hassler will render service in making what is
called ''cnronometric connection between
Sltka and the astronomical stations at the foot
OF Mt. st. Elias and at the mouths Of the Unuk,
Stikine, Taku and other rivers of southeas fern
Alaska. The three other vessels will be
stationed at the mouths of the three
rivers named and will also transport the
land parties from one point to another.
wherever the exigencies of their task NAV call
them Five engineer subparties will ascend all
the rivers for distances of from thirty TO sixty
miles, to take measur ements. make surveys and
gather facts and data requisite for the de-
termination of the disputed boundary line
THE DISPUTED BOUNDARY.
Only comparatively small proportion of the
entire Alaskan boundary is the subject of the
present controversy between Great Britain and
the United states. All that vast stretch Of
partition from Mt st. Elias to the Arctic ocean
700 mies-is agreed upon, the survey re-
Gently made by the United States of thar por-
ton having been accepted by the British gov
eminent practically without question, and like
wise that portion Of the line which extends
from the southern cape of Prince of Wales
Island to the head of tine Portland canal. The
dispute is solely with respect to the middle and
difficult portion of the line, from the Portland
canal to Nj. st. Elias, and arises out Of a curl
Gus defect ill the original definition Of the
boundary in the treaty of 1925 between Great
Britain and Russia. from whom our govern
ment derives its present ownership of Alaska
This definition was based upon what little in
formation was available at the time that treaty
was made. and it now transpires, strangely
enough. that some of that information was
in reality misinformation. For instance,
the treaty. after describingthe bound
airy line as beginning at the southernmost ex-
tremity of Prince of Wales Island, on the
fifteth parallel, traces it from that point north
westward along the summit of a range Of
mountains parallel to the coast to the 14lst
meridian, and thence following that meridian
in an unbroken astronomical line due north
ward to the Arctic or frozen ocean, Unfor-
