OLD BUILDINGS IN SARDINIA.

The Mystery of Their Construction Not
Yet Penetrated.
For centuries past the ingenuity of
learned men has been exercised on the
Noraghe of Sardinia, but to this day
they have no more been able to discover
the origin of these famous buildings
than had the Romans before them.
They were unable to say whether they
were used for tombs or fire temples, for
trophies of victory, for observatories,
OF merely for human dwelling places.
More than 5000 of them have been
counted in Sardinia, standing on arti-
fetal mounds 80 or go feet high, and
measuring at the base 100 to 300 feet
in circumference. They are usually
in the shape of towers, built with i'm
nlense blocks of stone roughly hewn
with hammers. No cement is used in
their structure, nor is there any in
scription to indicate their origin.
A low entrance at one side leads into
long and lofty passage, communicate
ing by very low door with domed
chamber beyond. On either side of this
small cells have been formed in the
walls. A spiral staircase rising steeply
from the dome leads to another but
somewhat smaller chamber above, and
again beyond this to the broken top
of the Noraghe.
Nothing has been found within these
buildings, and to this day their exist
ence is a mystery.
In the same vicinity other buildings
have been discovered which are no less
puzzling to antiquaries. The general
opinion is that they were built for the
purpose of burying giants.
The most interesting archaeological
mysteries of this country are the Denes
of Essex and Middlesex. They are per-
pendicular shafts sunk in the earth,
with lateral caves at the bottom, but
the purpose for which they were dug
out has never been discovered. It is
possible, however, that they might
have been used as granaries or even as
places of refuge in time of trouble.
The Rathes of Kerry form an inter-
esting study, the only conclusion that
has been arrived at, however, being
that they were inhabited at some re-
mote age by a race of dwarfs. The dis
trict is covered with hundreds of green
mounds, beneath which, when the earth
has been removed, it is seen that there
are tiny underground buildings.
A small opening. through which a
man is barely able to crawl on his hands
and knees, gives access to the inclosed
and walled-in space beyond, which is
divided into several smaller chambers.
Each one communicates with the other
by a small hole, similar aperture be-
ing made in the outer wall for the pur-
pose of ventilation. A rude fireplace is
sometimes found in remote corner,
but no outlet beyond the holes for ven
tilation is provided for the smoke.
Very little more than this is known
about these mysterious habitations.-

One Good Use for High Heels.

There they go now. The sergeant is

In front of the stone house the dc.
tachment halted and the sentry saluted.
1T IS nine o'clock" said the sergeant.
The sergeant unlocked the door, tie
key grating harshly in the rusty pac-
lock, and the next moment he looked in
and called for Toby.
There was no reply, and the soldier
went inside.
A moments glance seemed sufficient.
there's hole in the roof" cried he.
"a hole in the roof?'' echoed half a
dozen voices.
Bring light. Quick! The little
scamp has escaped"
The utmost confusion reigned.
A light was brought and revealed the
interior of the stone pile; loose clap
board in the roof told that the little
rebel had actually taken flight, and the
white-faced sentry seemed ready to fall
on his knees with fear.
''He was here ten minutes ago. I
heard him." he managed to say.
'''And ten minutes to him meant a
great deal. He can run like deer"
put in Abner Bryant.
1T seems to me heard horse cross
the bridge little while ago." remarked
another. and then the soldiers separated.
The sergeant and one other fastened
to Toby's home and searched it, Abner
Bryant ran home to get out his best
horse, but startling discovery awaited
him.
The ''best horse was gone.
The excitement that followed Toby's
escape was intense. The patriots of the
hamlet secretly rejoiced, while the three
tories bit their lips with chagrin.
Some months later Abner Bryant re-
ceived letter exploiting the good
qualities of his missing horse and thank
ing him for the use of it.
The letter was signed "Toby Travers,"
and the enraged tory tore it up and
threw it into the fire.
What became of the little rebel of the
crossroads?
The day after the surrender at York
town he was the bearer of message
from Washington to CORVALLIS and the
defeated general looked at him with a
great deal of curiosity.

A flush came to the Briton's face and
he turned it away. But the next mo-

captain: @:

afterward unearthed it and used some
of it against us in the siege of York
town." he said, with smile. "Your
general nearly lost a young captain
that time; but I commend your courage
on that occasion. You deserve to be
made major"
1t was the proudest moment in Capt.
Toby's life, and the next proudest was
when he went back to the little hamlet
and turned over to Abner Bryant his
black horse which had carried him to
safety on the most eventful night in his
history Republican,.

in Arizona-a practical. sensible insti- tuton where parents can safely send their children to be educated.
 Tucson Citizen: A Mexican few days ago, while searching for a horse in the Santa Catalina mountains, ac- cidentaNy came upon an old trail which had evidently been constructed by human beings. Out of curiosity he followed it up and at the end found a tunnel some thirty feet deep, at the mouth of which were some picks, shoveis, etc., and a quantity of gold bearing quartz. It was evident that the tools were old and had not been used for years, as the handles were moss covered and rotten. B. Brichta. to whom the find was reported, has grub staked a party and is now await ing their return With full details, as the old mine will be thoroughly in vestigated.
 Tucson Citizen: Two more China men fell into the clutches of the law, which they evidently desired to escape last evening. Inspector Mehan was on the lookout for them, but when the train arrived they were no where in sight, having taken refuge in the closet of the second-class coach, where they were soon located. They had locked themselves in and no amount of commands or persuasion could get them to open the door. A ladder was procured; on looking through the win dow they were discovered crouched down in the corners. Seeing that fur ther attempts at concealment were useless, and upon being spoken to in their own language by one of their own countrymen, who was assisting the inspector, they came out and after their papers had been examined and found unsatisfactory, were taken into custody.

Carlisle on Finance.

In Chicago Secretary Carlisle ad-
dressed large audience of working
men in the Auditorium. He spoke in
support of the administration and in
favor of sound money" basis. Re-
ferring to the position of the free sill
yer advocates, Mr.. Carlisle said:
The naked proposition is that the
United States shall coin, at the public
expense for the exclusive benefit of
the individuals and corporations own
ing the bullion, all the silver that may
be presented at the mints into dollars
containing 371l 4 grains of pure silver,
or i12l2 grains of standard silver,
worth intrinsically about 1 or cents,
deliver the coins to the depositors of
the bullion, and compel all the other
people in the country to receive these
coins at the valuation of 100 cents each
in the payment of debts due them for
property sold, for labor and service Of
all kinds, for pensions to soldiers and
sailors and their widows and children,
for losses sustained under policies is
sued by life and other insurance com
panies, for deposits in saving banks,
trust companies, building associations
and other institutions, for debts due
TO widows and orphans by guardians,
executors and administrators of deced-
ents' estates and other trustees, for sal
aries of all civil, military and naval
officials, and the compensation of pri-
vate soldiers and seamen, and, in short,
for every kind of obligation recogni-
zcd by the laws of the land, except
only in cases where the prudent capi-
talist has taken the precaution in ad
vance to contract for payment in gold
or its equivalent.
To say nothing of the gross partia-
lity and manifest injustice of such a
policy its immediate effect would be
| to contract our currency to the extent
of about SG20, 900, 900 by stopping the
use of gold as money and putting a
premium upon the coins of that metal
equal, or abont equal, to the difference
| between the intrinsic value of the gold
| dollar and the intrinsic value of the
| silver dollar. Gold coins would at
once become n commodity and would
be bought and sold by spectators in
the market just as they We're during
the war when we had deprecated
paper currency

The tremendous new naval program
which Mr.. Goschen announced in the
English house of commons, speaking
in his capacity as first lord of the ad
miralty, was accepted with practical
unanimity by the whole house without
regard to party. British finances are
prosperous, and hundred million dol
lars is about to be invested in new
ships. This great naval scheme
makes our own new policy seem small
although the decision at Washington
in favor of six or eight new battle
ships, to cost from $50, 900, 900 to SEQ,
900. 900, would look pretty large but
for the comparison with England's
gigantic appropriation for new ships
enough to form a navy in themselves.
We may venture to predict with conf
dence, as well as to hope with much
earnestness, that these new British and
American floating fortresses will never
have occasion to be used against each
other. Recent discussions have only
tended to make clearer the closeness OF
the Anglo. American family tie, and
the impossibility of war.

Cattle Treated for Tuberculosis.

All the herds of cattle of the Agri-
cultural College have just been treated
for tuberculosis by means of Koch 5
lymph. The test was conducted by
DR.. Connoway, professor of veterinary
science in the University, and j. X.
Hickman, assisted by the students in
veterinary medicine. None of the ami
mails showed the slightest indication
of disease and all We're pronounced en-
tirely healthy,
Four herds of thoroughbred cattle
are kept by the college for instruc-
tional and experimental progress, viz !:
Jerseys, Shorthorn, Hereford and Abb
erdeen Angus. The foundation stock
of these herds was produced in 1887
and since that time no opportunity has
been offered for the introduction of
disease among the cattle This is the
first public test for tuberculosis con-
Quoted in the state and it is exceed
ingly gratifying to the University au-
thorities and the consumers of tho
dairy products from these herds to
learn that they are entirely free from
contagion.
