Al Lively Carip.

The JOURNAL MINER man. accom-
 panied by Henry Goldwater, yester-
 day visited the railroad work at
 Point of Rocks, and found it quitesa
 lively place. Small squads of work
 men are scattered through the rocks, on the line of the work, from the lower end of them near Ole Pe- terson's place clear up to John Duke's place. There are two camps,
 Rtioa smssasrd Waters ,,and in all there are between 2O0 and 300 men employed. This force will be aug
 mented by about 100 more men in a
 few days by the arrival of Brady's force from Hell's Canyon. The lat ter will go into camp across Gran ite creek directly opposite the log house. His steam drills and other articles have already arrived on the ground. There are about two miles
 of completed grade scattered along at intervals, while large amount ot work, but not vet completed, repre-. sents nearly that much more l. long fill, thirty feet high and about nlAlf AcCl WlQt dN It's ndStf tONaktA just south of the old McCrum resi- dence, will be used to form a stor age reservoir. About twenty or thirty teams are at work there pill ing the dirt up to form the roadway and dam. Mir. Massicks, who owns the McCrum ranch, and who gave the right ofway through it in consi6 i eration oi this reservoir being made by the company, has laid a pipe on the ground underneath the em- l bankmeut to take the water out as | required, and 6 rayine just south of | the embankment will be spanned l with bridge, and will allow the escape of all water above a given night, so that there will never be any danger of an overflow of the | track. It will require about a month and half or two months l yet to complete the work through 1 the fecks. In the meantime two other camps will reach here from i Hells Canyon, and do the work be tween Dukes and Prescott.

The ToItecs.

Of the races which inhal tied tho American continent before the white man undertook to civilize it, says the Fl Paso Herald, the toltees are worthy of notice for the civiIi- zation they brought, presumably from Asia, or some unknown part of the world. It has always been a mystery where they came from, and will probably always be SO, but the fact remains that they have left to thinking people lasting remem- brances of civilization which was unexcelled at the time they arrived on the American continent. The pyramids of Egypt, which tourists travel thousands of miles to see, are inferior, if anything, to what can be seen to-day in Mexico by those who are ambitious of taking ia the sights of the world. The pyramids of the Sun and Moon, which were built by the Toltecs, are to be seen to-day in Mexico. The former iseollossal in its proportions. and equals in architectural skill anything which Egypt can produce. Its length is S40 feet, breadth. 6O9 feet, and its height in proportion to the rest of its colossal dimen- sions. It was built by these peo- pie to perpetuate their idea of re- hgion. The pyramid of the Sun was supposed to represent day, and tho pyramid of the Moon Represented night. The latter was 6OO feef long and 5l0 feet wide. In each If these splendid structures an idol was placed of gigantic proportions. which 1t was supposed would over protect the people from the influence ofthe Tilspirit which was supposed to remain around whenever 1t was cloudy. The Mexi- can government about four years ago sent a party to investigate, and report on the discoveries which it was expected would be made ia tbis pyramid. They were thorongblv explored and a report given w6icI corroborated the wTitino h, tb,, ~.
 cient history with regard t, tha- ''t
 pyramids The expedition rb;rt,
 went to Palenque, few wears aGa l,,a'
 sent by the French governmsSS, disclosed the fact that there was nothing which Egypt could pro. duee which Palenque could not dis count. The Toltecs certainly gave to the world something to think about when they built these stupen- dous monuments to their ererlast- ing grandeur aad civilization.

FUN WITH 4 DRUMMER.
q Wonderful Echo That Is PsrpstuAs
 Source Of Joy to a sleepy Town.

q Woaaerful Echo That Is Perpetual
 Source Of Joy to sleepy Town.
 'aThe meanest trick that was ever played on me, said St. Louis drum mer who was trying to boom a con versation in the smoking cnbby in a sleeper, twas by an echo. The little town is on the side of the hill and is as sleepy and uninteresting place as one will find in years journey. got into the town on one boiling hot day in August about o'clock, and proceeded to, rustic around to get 1 through business aud skip out.
 The town was SO internally lazy | looking that didn't have much con fdence in my ability to get business | At the postoffice corner an aged and aecrepit gray mule, with Tapping ears and solemn mien presided over the session of whittlers, who were in session under the big sycamore tree. aeeested one of the group to find ! out where Josh Wilkins, the princi. pal storekeeper, might be found, and learned that he was tending bury ing over in Catnip Holler. Just as ] was about to move away I heard Q mufied cry of
 " Help helpf
 ''rhe whittlers paid no attention, and the gray mule was giving all his time to fly on the end of his nose. Again beard the distant muffied cry of Help helpf
 It's a darn shame about that poor nigger,' remarked one of the whittlers.
 " Whats the matter with the nig ger1 asked, at the same time look ing suss s)iciously at tho wooden grated ma1fhole of the sewer on the corner
 Well, you see. it's this way, stranger. Bin Stark's bull pup crawl ed up the sewer from the cIick and got fast, and when the nigger crawl. ed up after hlm he got fast, too
 Great heavenst Why aren't yoH digging for hint The poor fellow will die
 fof course he may die, stranger, but then it's pretty hot today. and he is only a nigger. anyway,
 This is inhuman! Come, men, and we'll rescue the peor fellow,
 Just then another cry of 'Helpf drove me almost to a frenzy I gave some change to the lazy calored men and sent them for shovels and picks They came. and after distributing the implements I went to digging like a crazy man Presently look cd around to see why the others were not helping me, and there was not a soul in sight. l was wild with rage, | and cried down the manhole to aEk how the man was getting along. Not Q word came in answer. I backed of a little to survey the work. and heard that same mufied sound say;
 Come off the perch You are an old fool
 T looked around and saw the whole town coming at me. They were and shouting, and l knew was the cause of Q great joke. They ] led me to a baIroom and told me to register in Q big book labeled Echo Fools. There were over 500 names of people who had been fooled. It was one of those whispering echoes where sound is thrown back from he bluff to one particular spot. - Detroit Herald. II

 Pigeons as letter carriers tradition tells us were employed at the time when Joshua invaded Palestine as mediums of communication between headquarters and camps in lands far of on the other side of the Jordan. At tho time of the Talmud they were used in amusing games. The Talmud tells us that betting was indulged in at the pigeon play. The owner of the pigeon which reached first the point designated was the winner.
 Another play connected with bet ting was the "kubyaH Ruby means a small pot tArabic kubeia, snail glass;. The kubya was little pot wherein dice were shaken and thrown upon the table. The dice were numbered as our modern ones are. Against these two games the Tallnud was in arms, and their players were not allowed to appear as witnesses before the bar. Boston Transcript
