The upper terrace of the building is
rooted only by the projecting rock of
the cliff. space of perhaps three
feet being left open between the top of
the outer wall and the rock above
From two cham bers in the inner wall
of this terrace the half mummifed
bodies of two small children were last
summer exhumed by a .'relic hunter"
prospecting for "fnds."
While some distance from a railroad,
this ruin is by no means inaccessible
to the travelling public. 1t may be
reached by 5Omile trip from Prescott
or Flagstaff, or a 80 mile trip from
Jerome, and is we'll worth going much
farther to see. The entire region in
which it is found, too, is covered with
aboriginal ruins, and only eight miles
away is that unique phenomenon
known as Montezuma well.
Last summer the friends of Monte
yuma Castle, alarmed by the damage
done to its walls by reckless excava-
tions, determined TO make al effort for
the D eservation of this and the other
antiquities of the Southwest. A
humble of endeavors had b.en pre-
viOu-ly made TO obtain come general
legislation of similar nature, but with
out success. Urged on by the danger
to the cattle, however,it was determin-
ed to try once more, and congress
was asked to give protection to
aboriginal remains and to set apart
a small appropriation for putting some
of the more important ruins in repair.
Tue only result attained, aud this af-
ter some haggling, was an amendment
To the Indian appropriation bill, pro-
hi biting the removal of relics from
the public lands without permission
from the secretary of the interior.
At the last session Of the Arizona
legislature bill was passed protecting
the aboriginal relics scattered through
the territory imposing fines on the
destruction of old buildings, and the
carrying.off of the old relics from tie
st te.

rises sheer for nearly hundred feet

As the tourist comes suddenly upon
this grand old fortress, nestled beneath
its protecting rim of grim, brown rick,
it produces an eff ct upon him which
is innescri badly weird. He seems
transported as by magic into a differ

The precipice into whose walls tn; s

composed of i've terraced stories, and
measures 4S feet in height. The walls
are of adobe, built much after the fash

Indians. and entrance, as in these lat
ter, was originally gained from the
top. The roO's are constructed of good
sized timbers set in the walls, across
which, transversely, are placed poles:
and these are covered with reeds and
mud. Twenty large rooms and eight
small ones in all are found in the cas-

castle walls, is spread magnificent

Office of Commercial Agent.
| Ell PasO, Texas, Sept. 10, 1887.
In order to obiviate delays to sea-
board, freight shipped via the Morgan
Line steamers and Sunset Route, it
was intended to have the steamers sail
direct to and from Galveston, until the
quarantine restrictions at New Orleans
| were removed. It was considered, how
ever, that this would lengthen out the
thoroughly esta blished fast time sched-
ule attained by the Great Sunset Route
and inasmuch as the steamers sail to
and from Algiers and do not touch at
| New Orleans, arrangements have been
effected whereby the Texas quarantine
authorities will station a special agent
at Algiers to supervise quick transfer
from ship to car and give certificate
permitting Immediate despatch, thus
making no change of time or facilities.
1t will be observed, therefore, that
the Sunset Route management are
ever alive to the best interests of its
patrons, and we solicit a continuance
of the bestowal of your business.
For the protection of the interests of
our patrons, we would announce that
restrictions have been promulgated
prohibiting the handling of freight or
iginating in New Orleans, or passing
through that point, either having des-
tination in the state of Texas, or des-
tIuSu W pOluGS USyOuu. GueTeiOre, we
would request that for the present no
freight be routed through New Or
leans.
On freight originating in Chicago,
Cleveland, Cincinnati and adjacent ter
ritories, we would solicit routing
through ST. Louis, care Frisco Line,
81. 81 T. G. and Southern Pacific; M. K.
& 7 II. & T. G. and Southern Pacific:
@. r. I. & p, b. & T. c.. and Southern
Pacific; or Burlington. M. K. & T., H.
& T. @. and Souther Pacific.
This does not in any way effect
freight to and from seaboard via Nor
gan L ne steamers and Sunset route,
as same does not pass through New
Orle ans.
The post Office department advise
that all mail from New Orleans to Mo-
bile Scranton, Ocean Springs and
other supposed infect districts is fumi-
gated and no danger from that source
is likely to arise.
