Mears at Liberty.

FARGO, n. D., Nov. 2S-EX-Banker
E. Ashley Mears once more breathes
free air, but in a somewhat limited
way. The supreme court met Wednes-
day afternoon to consider his case and
a rather warm session was had. The
matter was argued at such length that
it was impossible to finish it last night
and adjournment was taken till Mon
day when the hearing will be continued
in Fargo. Attorney General Standish
secured Mears' release from jail till
Monday by having his client sign and
deposit with the clerk of the supreme
court the deeds over which the conten-
tion is made. These deeds act as bail
for Mears' appearance Monday, and aft

the signatures will be considered as if
signed by the order of the lower court.

THE GARDEN OF EDEN.
DIR. LIE PIOugeOn Says Central
America Was the Cradle of
Humnuify

DR.. LIE PlOugeOn Says Central
America Was the Cradle of
Humanity.
New York Mail and Express.
A few weeks ago we were assured
by learned Psychologist that the
cradle of the human race was in the
region of the great lakes of Central
Africa, and some very good reasons
in support of this view were put for
ward. Now, however, it is claimed
that the Garden of Eden was located
neither in Asia nor in Africa, but in
Central America. DR.. LIE PlOugeon
has devoted many years of his life
to an investigation of the monu-
ments and ruins of Yucatan, which
have puzzled generations of arch
aeologists and explorers. Existing in
that country are the remains of an
cient cities, disclosing the remark
able civilization of a prehistoric age,
embracing temples, palaces, elabor-
ate sculptures, hieroglyphics, wall
paintings and the great pyramid of
Chichen. Having an intimate knoWl-
edge of the language of the native In
dians-the warlike Quiches-Dr. LIE
Plougeon lived among these people
for some time, and was rewarded by
discovering that the language these
aborigines speak today is Identical
with the writings on the monuments.
With this knowledge he renewed
his research, and claims to have
found from the hieroglyphics a sue
cinct and coherent record of the
feud between Cain and Abel. The
ancient land of Maya, which he has
rediscovered, is interpreted by the
doctor as the first or primitive land,
and the story which he declares IS
written upon the walls of that an
cient city and upon Abers tomb is
this: According to the Maya laws
the youngest brother must espouse
the youngest sister, and Prince Con
-Abel-having married his sister
Moo. and being moreover success
full warrior. is envied by his brother,
Aac-Cain-and finally slain by him.
Prince Aac then paid suit to Queen
Moo, who repelled his advances, built
a mausoleum over the remains OF her
dead husband, and, having caused
record of the transactions to be sculp-
tured upon the tomb. set out for
new country to escape the lmpor-
tunities of her fratricidal brother.
There appears to be no reference
to Adam and Eve in the Yucatanese
inscriptions, but the serpent is men
toned as are also other incidents
agreeing with the Biblical story.
From Yucatan the fugitive Queen
Moo and her followers made their
vav to Egypt. and DR.. LIE Plougeon
relies the Egyptian mythology as
supporting his Interpretation OF the
mysterious writing found in the dead
cities of Central America.

CANTILLIoN IN TOWN.
He Has Signed to Play With CO.

Joe Cantillion, who acted aus um-
pire the last half of the season in the
Western league, reached st. Paul yes
terday morning from the West, where
he has been managing one of the teams
in the hoodooed trip to the coast. Can
tillion, who was here long enough to
shake hands with a number of his
friends, was on his way TO st. Cloud,
between which place and st. Paul he
will spend the winter. He has signed
with Tom Lotus, who, aided by Com
iskey, landed the Columbus franchise,
to play second base the coming season
in that city, and will captain the CO.

for Barnes, who is still in San Fran
cisco. 1t appears that While there
were two teams in the California cap
ital and the other two in Les Angeles,

and business men, the object being to
encourage and promote Independent

by leading citizens. Sentor Cronkhite
spoke forcibly, claiming that the coun-
try owned nothing to the great eievtor

the chamber of commerce, and to sus-
tain and build them up should be his
