Springfield, ILL.,, June Gov. John
Altgeld is of the belief that the unIte
States supreme court has established
n dangerous precedent in demanding Il
V. Debs and his friends to Jail. He eN
pressed himself in Il very caustlc mahhr
that the court had trampled on the rlght
of the people and been the tool Of mono
poly. He gives his views for pubiIca
ton in a single article in which he says
in part: "Ths decision marks turning
point in our history, for it establishes a
new form Of government never before
heard of among men, that is, government
by Injunction The provisions OF the CON
stitution, that no man shall be deprived
of his liberty without a trial by an impair
tial jury, is practically wiped out by TINS
decision of the United States supreme
court, and the theory that ours was eN-
clnsiyely n government of law is at an
end. for every community is now subject
TO obey any within or prejudice which any
Federal judge may propagate. ANA II

Turning now to the old world we have
to note some interesting discoveries made
recently by the "men of the spade" One
of these was of Pamela Setteimini, neal
Pompeii, on the property of a certain NJ
| Vincent de Prosco. A house has beer
unearthed that was covered at the time
the city was buried, and it is said to b,
in more perfect condition than any build
ing yet discovered. 1t contains seyera
large apartments and three bath rooms
with the basins in sculptured marble and
with leaden pipes Ornamented with bronze
faucets. The three rooms correspond
says a writer in describing the discovery
to the "calidarium, tepidarium and frigid
arium, which were always to be found in
ancient houses of the first class. In con.
sequence of the eruption in A. d. 20, the
Pompeian houses brought to light hereto
fore have been of little value from an
archaeological point of view. Fortunate
ly, however. that on the property of NJ
de ProScO is perfect and archaeolOgists
are happy over the fact. The roof meas
ures over Al feet in length"
The archaeological researches in Rome
of recent years have thrown much light
on the life of the early Christians in that
city, but no discovery has produced such
interest as that of the tomb of Amplias
Says Paul, in Romans xvi, s: Greet
Amplias, my beloved in the Lord" Who
was Amplias? Who We're his friends ?
Why was he buried in this particular
place? The answers to these questions

tomb, and flood of light is let in upon

is tomb stands in one of the catacOmbs,
eXcavated in the time of Domitian, on
the ground then belonging to Flavia Do
militia, his niece. Roman history pre-
serves the fact that Flavia became a
Christian. Amplias, the friend of Paul,
must have been a distinguished man.
The tomb is of such a character that only
the possessor of great wealth could have
constructed so remarkable q resting place.
Was this the work of Flavia, the niece
of the great Domitian? Was it erected
at the cost of his family? or by the early,
Christians of Rome? These questions
may be answered, for the investigations
are not yet concluded. All that we know
at present is that there is no tomb in
the catacOmbs that equals it for beauty
of its adornments and variety of PICTORIAL

THE STEAMER COMMA.
1t is Charged a Shifting Cargo Caused
Her to go Down.

San Francisco June 2.-The condition
Of the cargo of the Colima when she left
Mazitan is an important one in view OF
the kilograms printed yesterday. In the
dispatches from tree different sources
comes the statement that the cargo of the
COlima shifted and the steamer was top
heavy, because of the deck load. This
statement comes from survivors who re-
lated on the San Juan and at MaZatlan
and from Mazanillo where some of the
survivors remain, that this was true.
The question is, was the Colima disaster
due to bad storing of cargo and to deck
load too great for the steamer to bear
in heavy weather. Mr.. Alexander Center,
the agent in this city does not believe the
statement that the cargo shifted. and he
declared that the cargo was loaded in the
best possible manner Mr.. Center said
the COlima did not carry dynamite as re-
ported. but said there was quantity of
gun powder aboard which was stored in
the magazines.

Curious and puzzling as anything
brought to light in recent years was
some ancient handiwork found not long
ago in making excavations for a canal
connecting lakes Eustis and Dora in
Southern Florida. The first excavations
revealed the existence of a clearly de-
fined wall lying in line tending toward
the southwest from where it was first
struck. The wall was composed of a
dark brown sandstone, very much crum-
bled in places, but more distinct, more
clearly defined and the stone more solid
as the digging increased in depth The
wall was evidently the eastern side of
an ancient home or fertilization. This
sand mound was dug into only a few
inches, but enough was discovered to
warrant the belief that here on the north
western shore of Lake Dora is submerged
a city or town or fertilization older by
centuries than anything yet discovered in
this portion of Florida. Small curiously
shaped blocks of sandstone, some of
them showing traces of fire. pieces of pot
terry and utinsels made of notified flint
were thrown out by the men while work
ing waist deep in water. One spear head
of mottled flint five and half inches
long by one and quarter inches wide,
nicely finished, was taken from the TOP
OIL the SAND mound and about four feet
below the water level of the lake.
But in no part of this country, per-
haps, have so many valuable finds"
been made as in the territory of New
Mexico. All this region seems to have
been thickly peopled ages ago by a highly
civilized race. On the highest point of
the great Potrero de las Vacas of New
Mexico are the most remarkable pre-
historic relics that have been discovered,
being no less than the gods sculptued in
stone that We're worshiped by the an
clients. These are the statutes of noun
tain lions carved from a volcanic rock
The images are inclosed in a rude and
almost circular stone wall, in a space so
feet in circumference, three feet in height,
with an entrance projected 10 feet to-
ward the southeast, three feet wide. The
lions face directly toward the east, are
two in number, separated by space of
II inches, and are each six feet in length
and each represents puma or mountain
lion in the act of crouching for spring.
The heads of these statues are almost
entirely destroyed, showing plainly the
marks of the pious hammer that have
sought their overthrow. The legs, bodies
and tails of the animals are better pre-
served and constitute the remains of the
