CLIFF DWELLERS' VILLAGE.
lis Discovery by Prospectors In the
Mountains of Arizona.

lis Discovery by Prospectors in the
Mountains of Arizona.
Recent arrivals from the Bradshaw noun
tains report the discovery of cliff dwellers'
village in one Of the most inaccessible can
ons of that range, which has never before
been seen by white men, says the San Fran
cisco Chronicle.
The discovery was made by two pros
pectors, White and Wi liam5, who did not at
tempt thorough exploration, but from their
description this is the largest village Of the
ancient people that has ever been discovered.
The village is located along the high banks
on either side of Willow canon and the
houses are estimated to be 260 in number.
1t is difficult to reach this canon, even
with pack animals, which accounts for its
having so long remained undiscovered.
There are three natural terraces along the
canon wall and the dwellings open back
from these. Narrow steps in the rock now
almost worn away, seem to indicate that this
was the method employed for ascent and de-
scent.
Several of the houses were explored and
large quantities of pottery and some imple-
ments, evidently used for culuvating the soil,
were found. In one the skeleton of a man
not over four feet eight inches in height was
discovered.
The canon ct this place Is half mile wide
and shows evidence OF having been cultivated
Ii this theory prove to be true it will throw
new light on the habits of this little-knOwn
people. So far as known no other evidence
has over been discovered of the elf dwellers
having cultivated the soil. party is now
being organized to Thoroughly explore the
new-found village, and the result OF the re-
search will be awaited with hinteress.-Chicago
