evidence OF the soundness OF his theories.

top strata Of auval soil they found a layer OF
adobe or plain formation OF the quaternary
period and In the strata OF fine silt lying under

riors Of n prehistoric race. Professor Walters
learned OF the discovery, and. under his direc-
tIon. pits were dug In n great number of places
revealing the fact that under an area OF thirty
acres these skeletons OF an extinct race were
thickly buried.
The skulls found to be broken, as if by
blunt weapons. or pierced with spears or ar
rows The arrow points are found inside the
skulls or sticking into the other bones Of the

There is much talk throughout the
state in favor of calling an extra session
of the legislature to pass a law giving
ike railroad commissioners power to
put their new schedule Of rates in force
and 1T is even SAID that SO much
pressure has been brought to bear upon
the governor that he has decided to call
a special session. We believe this is pre-.
mature and that the step ought not to
be taken hurriedly. The final hearing
on the Injunction has not been held yet
and it is more than probable that when
it is, Judge Garland will hold with the
