A Visit to the Butterfly City.

Drs. J.. Walter Fewkes and Walter
Hough have just returned from a visit
to eastern Arizona, near Fort Defiance,
where they explored the ancient burial
place of a tribe Of people related to the
Zuni Indians. This forgotten race had
built their city in the form OF one large
compartment house Of most peculiar
architecture. Houses constructed In
tiers, like the cells of the huneycomb.
formed the walls of the city, whose
foundations outlined a huge butterfly
with wings outspread. Through the
midst of the court between flowed q
ditch or stream of water, fed by O
spring bored exactly in the center.
The ruin is known as Kin Tiel oil
Broad House by the modern tribes in
these regions. Centuries ago it's popu.
lation was probably as large as that o.
the old Rome Of Seyerus or OF ancient
Troy. The explorers made extensive
excavations and found in its ruins Z
choice collection Of relics. They dug
into the city's cemetery, just outside OF
the walls on the east, where they found
relics of such a character as to leave
no doubts in their minds that the in
habitants were related to the ancient
Zuni. The pottery was decorated with
symbols similar to those found In an.
cient Zuni ruins, but different from
those Of the Moqui. They found many
skeletons in a fair state of preserya-
ton. These are now in Washington.
They will be given to a specialist, who
will make from them deductions Us to
the anatomical characteristics Of the
race.

Through Field and FaIlow."

a choice collection Of original poems by
JEAN HOOPER PAGE. F. Tennyson Nicely:
ia Fifth Avenue, New York, SO Queen
Street, London, Publisher. Cloth, gilt
top, S1.00.
Below is an extract from acriticism by q
well known journalist:
1t Is not always the brilliant work which
appeals to us most keenly. Sarcasm and
rhetoric have their place, but the book
that lies or the desk and Is found in the
mending basket is the book, nine times out
of ten, that deals with everyday life and
sweeps across the strings of the heart
While Mrs. Pages work, Through Field
and Fallow,n often touches the subj lemi
nor chords, it invariably swells to the tr
umphant major and rings clear and true in
sweetness of undying hope and unquench-
able faith.
Much of Mrs. Pages work has appeared
first in our great daily newspapers, but its
life has been less ephemeral than theirs.
Here and there u woman has treasured
some bit in her scrap book; a mar has
clipped a verse and put it away in the
drawer of his desk marked '~private."
Sooner or later in this little volume the
reader will find the poem that was written
for him.
Father Ryan once wrote: ITO upllft
the downcast, to sweeten any life, to feel
that we in some way nave helped to light
en- the burden that rests upon mankind
this is the only real comDeneation that
comes to the poet" This recompense will
be Mrs. Pages.
Mrs. Page is the daughter of S. X. Hoop
err, General Passenger Agent of the Denver
& Rio Grande Railroad, through whom
orders for the book should be sent.

When will the authorities give Of
feet to the verdict rendered by the ju-
rors who have heard the evidence In
the case of the People versus the Lqi

favor of delay that the guilt has been
proclaimed by ignorant jurymen; men
of the clearest intellect and noblest

have adjudged 1t the enemy of the

are a few authorities whose opinions

SKILL OF DOCTORS TESTED.
Fifteen Years of Suffering.
81 thought | should surely die"

When the stomach begins to fail in
Its duties, other organs speedily become
affected In sympathy, and life Is simply a
burden almost unbearab1e. Indigestion
and dyspepsia are SO common that only
the sufferer from these diseases knows
the possibilities of misery that inhere in
them. A typical example Of the suterings
Of the victim Of indigestion Is furnished
In the case of John c. Pritchard. He went
ON for fifteen years, from bad to worse.
In spite of doctors he grew constantly
weaker, and thought he would die. He
got we'll, however, and thus relates his
experience:
For fifteen years I was a great sufferer
from indigestion in it's worst forms. I
tested the skill of many doctors, but grew
worse and worse, Until 1 became so weak
I could not walk Fifty yards without having
to sit down and rest. My stomach, liver,
and heart became affected, and I thought I
would surely die. 1 tried DR.. J. c. Ayers
Pills and they helped me right away. 1
continued their use and am now entirely
we'll. I don't know of anything that will
90 quickly relieve and cure the terrible
sutferings Of dyspepsia as Dr.. Ayers
P~ills.'-JoHN c. PRITcHARD, Brodie, War
rem Co., N. c.
This case Is not extraordinary, either In
