RELICS OF ARcHAEOLOCIC

| The Smithsonian Institution will
soon publish most interesting ac-
count OF excavations recently made
near WINSTON. Ariz., under it's
auspices. the result of which was the
discovery OF many things OF archaeo-
logical importance. DR.. J. Walker
Fewkes had charge OF the digging,
which unearthed portions OF the ruins
OF four ancient and long buried cities.
The aboriginal inhabitants OF the
region have traditions to the effect
that the towns In question were the
dwelling places OF remote ancestors
OF their own. and the finds made
incidentally to the excavations seem
TO show that this belief Is presumably
correct. Up to a comparatively recent
date the walls OF the ruined build
ings rose to considerable height, but

says the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
One OF these buried cities to which
the most careful study was given, was
evidently pueblo OF great size, of
rectangular shape and inelosing plazas.
From this ancient ruin, now repre-
sented only by huge mound, were
taken several hundred beautiful OBJ

They were acquainted with bells made
OF copper. They had rattles of sea
shells and wore fringes OF shells on
the margins of their garments. In
ceremonials they made use of stone
slabs painted with animals. The war
riors were armed with bows and ar
rows tipped with stone and obsidian
points. They had clubs. stone ham
mers and axes. They made needles,
bodkins and avis Of bird stones, an
telope tibiae and ribs, which they
sometimes carved in imitation of AMI
mails. The women were adopts in the
manufacture of earthenware vessels,
which they decorated in elaborate fig
ures in several colors They were ia
miliar with the art of glazing pottery
and practiced etching OF the same to a
very limited extent. They buried their
dead just beyond the outer walls and
deposited with them various votiye
offerings, pottery, basketry, ceremonial
and other paraphernalia, having first
painted the face and wrapped the body
in mating. The symbols on their pot
terry indicate that they recognized the
sun and spider as powerful deities.
They worshiped the rain. clouds,
lightning, snake, tadpole. frog and var
ious mythical birds. They entertained
an idea of future life and associated
the dead with rain gods.

Fivs-Year-OId Girl Comes From

A number OF passengers at the rail-
road depot of Cincinnati, says the
Enquirer OF that city. gathered in the
waiting room around very interesting
little mite of girl. perhaps years
old, who sat by herself. hugging doll.
The little one was pretty, with large
black eyes. raven black hair. rather
dirty hands, but a face so pleasant and
full OF light that il naturally attracted

name. yet ladies' who bent down over
her seem TO understand her dainty for
eign jargon. Around the child's neck
was a string that held suspended upon
her bosom the photograph of a young
woman holding babe in her arms
To the photograph note was written
in the Polish language stating the
name OF the child whittier bound, and
asking strangers 10 show her along her
way. The child had come all the way

st. Louis. The place from which she
started originally could not be learned.
Her clothes were very poor and her
little shoes were made of the coarsest
kind of leather. She carried no bag
gage except little school sack, in
which were a few primary books, nuts,
candies, cakes and large envelopes that
contained her transportation. OF these
the little one was very careful and
would cry in a frightful manner If
anybody touched them. From steam

Clarke leaned as far back as possible
to give the animal chance, and while
