Did the Chinese Discover American

O1o the Cn1neso discover Amerlcay
An interesting discovery recently re-
ported is that of a rock covered with
curious characters resembling Chinese,
in Mexico, in the mountains Of Sonora.
According to The Great Round World
the characters appeared to resemble the
Chinese 80 closely that well educated
Chinaman was asked to go to see the
rock and give his opinion about it. He
had no sooner looked at it than he de-
clared it to be a veritable Chinese in
scription. He made copy of it and has
already translated enough to show that
the writing was cut in the stone about
1000 years ago. There are ten lines of
characters on the parts Of the rock ex-
posed to view.
The Chinaman who translated the in
scription said it was an account Of q
Chinese settlement that had once been
established in the place where the stone
was found. He said that in the history
of China there was record of an ex-
petition which had been sent to that
portion Of the western coast which is
now Mexico. If this is true, the CONT
nent of North America was discovered
by the Chinese centuries before the time
of Columbus.
Evidence is coming to light in vari-
GUS parts of the globe of the tremendous
journeys that were undertaken by the
Chinese in the early days Of civiliza.
ton. 1t has lately been discovered that
they at one time formed colonies in the
islands Of the Pacific ocean. In Aus
tralia evidences have also been discov-
cred of Chinese habitation.

The method of construction is said TO
be simple. Poles, such as are used for
str!nging telegraph wires, are placed in
pairs. with their tops brought together
ana with their bases resting on the
earth or rock fifty fee. apart. Through
the :ops OF these poles of varying lengths
are run TO and connected with the tics
which support the rails. the rails them
selves being outside the supporting or
cantilover rods, and the trucks or We
