There is much room for speculation
regarding the people, whose bones are
being exhumed just across the Santa
Cruz, opposite the city. Q. Monler,
The contractor, commenced a brick
yard there last March and has since
then, in the course OF his pursuit, un-
earthed human bones and skulls Ia a
good state Of preservation. They
seem to have beet Systematically ar
ranged in burial, leading to the con-
lection Of their belonging to a higher
state OF civilization than any of the
tribes inhablting the country on the
nrst visit OF the Catholic missionaries.
Who we're these people aud what we're
their habits, are questions for anti
quArlans to solve. 1t seems lmproba-
BILE they were OF any existing race,
since the skulls, of. which a dozen or
more have been found, invariably
fun sets Of teeth in the most perfect
state of preservation, something ex-
tremely rare in these latter days.

One of the strungest contrasts in Ma
pies is TO walk from the royal palace,
with its fino marble staircase, mp the
new Corse Re d'Italia and to climb in
to the steep streets around the Church
Of San Soverino Sosio.
These streets are the dwelling places
Of the dyers, and enc steps from regal

ricd ON in the street, and little streams
Of water-red, yellow, brown and black
pour over the rough stones and gath
er in mrlticolored pools, while ON low
benches against the walls women are
washing clothes, standing in the dirty,
soapy water that splashes over from
their tubs
The passersby walk heedlessly through
the dye and soapsuds, while the chill
dren find pleasant occupation in throw
ing mud of every variety Of color at
anybody who chances to be wearing
light colored garments. 1t is veritable
feast of color from the merely spectacu-
lar point Of view, but visit to these
streets leaves bodily as well as o
mental impression.
Very often in tho depths of these sor-
did alleys one comes across q forgotten

unknown, its great court of honor
crowded with booths, its vast halls fill

The standard attained by the per-
formance of modern pumping engines is
pretty high, as, was illustrated by an
incident which occurred not long ago
here in New York, where some large
pumping engines that had recently been
set up and were working at rather high
speed and almost absolutely withoat
noise were inspected by an expert in
such matters who hailed from an into
rior city. He remarked. "Well, those
engines work very nicely now, but wait
until you get to pumping water at that
sroed and then you viii hear something
from them probably"
His astonishment may perhaps be i'm
agined when it was demonstrated to
him that they were at that moment

ously doing so for 4s hours s-American

A HARD RAILROAD TO BEAT.
One Man In Double Distilled III Luck
Found IL 80.

Found II 30.
The Southern Pacific is about the
worst road in the wide, wide world to
fool in the matter of transportation.
The Southern Pacific has such plain
monopoly Of California business that it
is not necessary for it to look for favors,
so it closes down very tight. Even the
tickets which the scalpers succeed in
getting are so hedged about with pre-
cautions that It is like taking civil
service examination to beat one of them.
The favorite is a long slip which is
designed to be punched to fit the de-
scription of the purchaser, SO that by
no means can it be used by another
than the rightful owner. When one of
these tickets appears in q scalper's stock,
it looks like porous plaster being

was as nothing to the faro back over

soul with regrets he came upon neatly
folded slip OF paper which had besn lost,
doubtless by some hurried tourist. It
was one of those pieces OF oIganette mu-
sic representing ride back to Ogden.
Jim read it over, printed matter,
punches and ell, and rushed for drug
store. He bought dyes for his hair, a
stain for his complexion, got pair Of
blue goggles and ran concealing band
age over his chin. A barber took OH
his mustache, and for dollar a cheap
oculist made his eyes blue, so that the
goggles were re-enforced with corrobo-
ration. 1t took all his money but 40
cents. Then he climbed aboard tho
train.
He had reached Port Costa when the
conductor came around and gave one
hurried look at tho ticket.

TORAL'S SPANIARDS.
GAVE UP ARMS WITH FEELING
OF RELIEF.
All Have Surrendered Except Those
at Guantanamo and No Trouble
Expected There-Report of Gu
ban-Spanish Fights Untrue.

SANTIAGO, July 25.-With the ex-
ception of those at Guantanamo, all
the Spanish troops within the area OF
territory indicated in Toral's capitu-
lation of arms have surrendered to the
United States. Lieutenant Miley, of
Skaters staff, who was designated as
commissioner to receive the surren-
dered Spanish in outlying districts,
has just returned from his expedition
and reports that he had not the least
trouble in obtaining the surrender of
the various garrisons, the Spanish
giving up their arms not only without
reticence and reluctance but with a
feeling of relief at the termination of
hostilities. Three thousand stands of
arms were turned over to the Ameri-
cans.
Rich and influential plantation
owners declare that Spanish guerrillas
and volunteers are ready and willing
to work as zealously as they fought
and are of the opinion that prosperity
will quickly come to the country with
peace under the American flag.
The surrender of Guantanamo is of
greater Importance than was at first
believed. At that point there are over
seven thousand troops, the greater
part of whom are seasoned regulars of
the Spanish army. The commission
ers left yesterday on their return to
Guantanamo. 1t is stated that the
surrender of troops there will be &C
complished without the slightest
trouble.
The reports of fighting between the
Cubans and Spanish is untrue.

End and 3rd

Bishop Rondthaler announced Sun
day that a meeting would be held
at the Home church Tuesday night to
elect delegates to the Moravian Dis
trict Conference which will be held at
Bethania on August End and Bird.
The Wachovia Moravian, referring
to the coming conference says: 1.-The
District Sunday School Committee was
formed at the first Friedberg Confer
ence in 1894, and has been active ever.
since. 1t is interesting to remember
that not one of the many Sunday
schools. founded under the direction
of that committee, has failed. The ar
rangement has now continued fourteen
years, and the blessing which God has
laid on it, in the founding and contin-
uation of new schools, is wonderful.
cat the Bethania Conference the
Sunday school cause will again have
the place of honor. There will be re-
ports from all the schools. Every en-
couraging word on this subject will be
carefully gathered up. The difficult
ties and the discouragements will like
wise be considered. The needs of SUI
perintendents. teachers and scholars
will be studied. improvements in Sun
day school work will be advanced.
Old features which have approved
themselves will be recommended. The
singing in Sunday schools will be duly
regarded and the teaching of the les
sons commented on.
s'But, while the Sunday school will
have the foremost place in the coun-
sells of the Conference, the other great
interests of the church, such as mis-
sions, education, Christian Endeavor
and prayer meetings, will not be over

THE FUTURE POLICY.
Civic Federation to Hold a National
Conference at Saratoga


Conference at Saratoga
CHICAGO, July 24.-The Civil Fed
Grafton of Chicago tonight gave out a
call for a national conference to be
held at Saratoga Springs, N. Y, Au-
gust 10Th and Goth, to discuss the
future of the general policy OF the
United States. The call is signed by
over 1000 representative men from
every state in the Union. The call
says: 1.-The undersigned deem it de-
slrable that national conference be
convened at an early day to consider
the future of the general policy of the
United States. The war with Spain
gives promise of the overthrow of
Spanish power in Cuba, Porto Rico,
the Philippines, and the other of the
country's colonial possessions. The
question of what disposition the Unit
ed States should make of these pos
sessions when peace is reached is none
too soon in engaging the thought of
our people. This question impresses
US as being one of the most serious
the American people have had to con-
slider.
The circular letter sent out by Chair
man Henry Wade Rogers and Secre-
1dr y hdlpn M. taSley, asking Tor Sig
natures, stated that neither the gene
sis nor conduct of the war would be
discussed, nor any political cast be
given to the proceedings, the object
being entirely educational. The re-
sponses were prompt and enthusiastic.
The signers consist of Governors,
Mayors, Presidents ofBoards of Trade,
Presidents of colleges, lawyers, presi-
dents of banks, labor leaders, leading
clergymen and manufacturers. While
only individual names were asked for,
a great many organizations authorized
their presidents to sign officially.

success. A new track will induce our

would mean good races every few
