A Pixies PEAK LEGEND.
Some One Has Connected It's Genesis
With Early Mythology.

WIN EarIy MgtnOlOEg.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
While the geological and meteorological
history of Pixies Peak is interesting, the
real history Of the place comes from the
Indian legends. To Ernest Whitney, of
Colorado Springs, becomes the credit of
discovering these legends and in a certain
measure preserving them. Mr.. Whitney.
went TO Colorado many years ago, and
became greatly interested in the Indian
traditions. He devoted years to his study
of them. and has visited nearly every
tribe in the country on its reservation in
search Of Information. His hardest work
was &c separate the old Indian legends
from the interpretations which We're the
result of intercourse with the whites His
work was cOnscientiously done. and, al
though many interesting features are
omitted as being apocryphal, the legends
as given to-day are the identical legends
which were told in the tribes 80 years
ago.
Mr.. Whitney IS convinced that centuries
as hare was a close connection between
the mounla.-. .rihes Of Indians and the
Aztecs, but says n- 49, 80 conclusive
proof The Indian legends. especially Inv
account OF the flood. which is a factor in
the legends of all savage races. will
prove Of interest TO the Bible scholar. who
will compare it with his Book Of Gene
sis.
Peak, as given by Mr.. Whitney, follows:
AT the beginning of all things the Lesser
Spirits possessed the earth and dwelt near
the banks Of the Great river They had
created a race of men to be their ser.
wants, but these men were far superior to
the present inhabitants of the earth ana
made endless trouble for their creators
Therefore, the Lesser Spirits resolved 20
destroy mankind and the earth itself; so
they caused the Great river to rise until
il burst its banks and overwhelmed ev-
erything. They themselves took each
large portion of the best of the earth that
they might create a new world, and
quantity of maize, which had been their
particular food, and returned to heaven
Arriving al the gate of heaven, which is
at the end of the plains, where the sky
and mountains meet, they were told that
they could not bring such burdens of
earth into heaven. Accordingly, they
dropped them all then and there These
falling masses made a great heap on the
top of the world which extended far above
the waters, and this is the origin of
Pixies Peak, which is thus shown to be
directly under the gate of heaven. Ut
was formerly twice as high as now, but
lost its summit, as is told in another le-
gend)
The rock masses upon it and all about
show that they have been dropped from

It's remarkable efficacious medicinal prop

Persons unintiated in the mysteries or
the fruit are liable TO throw up their
hands in horror at the vision Of dyspepsia,
which such a suggestion may summon up
but no harm can come TO even delicate

is an excellent brain food. because Il has
more phosphoric acid in easily digesnble
shape than any other vegetable known.
IT excites the action Of the liver. promotes
sound and healthy sleep, and thoroughly
disinfeets the mouth. This is not all. The
apple agglutinates the surplus acids Of
the stomach. helps the kidney secretions
and prevents calculus growths while il
obviates indigestion and is one OF the
best preyentives known OF diseases OF the
