can only be reached by stage, the distance from the railroad is about 72 miles and on the trip relays are made, the journey requiring about 12 hours. The canon is a chaotic gorge 2l7 miles long and ranging in width from g to 13 miles. The chan nel from the Colorado river which flows through the canon is about 6, 500 feet, more than a mile below the surrounding plateau. Let those who have stood upon the brink of the laundering Niagara and shouted words of admiration for the sublime spectacle before them think of chasm nearly fifty times as deep and gorge many, many tim, s as wide. Let those who made the circuit of the Ferris wheel and look ed upon the magic city of the West from that dizzy height imagine their feelings when they are brought to 8 point from winch they could drop a plummet ten times as far. Even the lofty Eltfel tower dwindles into a pigmy by the side of the towering walls of this mighty chasm, It is impossible to give any fair account Of this wonder of nature, the skill of Michael Angelo, the genius ot Beethoven and the matchless pen of that master of wor painting, John Ruskin, would alike prove made quate to the task of embodying in song or story or tracing upon living canvas the gorgeous beauty aud overwhelming sublimity of this awe inspiring scene in the presence of which the senses cover and the stoutest heart quavers
 From Flagstaff a ride of eight hours carries us across the arid plains that lies between this part ot Arizona and California. Little oc- CUTS to vary the monotony of the scene.

NEW OF THE WALNUT CANON, ONCE THE
 HOME OF
THE. CLIFF JEWELLERS.
Discoveries in Arizona-A Trip Across the Plains-Spanish Adyen-
 turers of Old,

Los Angeles, Cal, July IF, '99. Editor of Graphic:
 In compliance with your request of the 11th, will write brief de- scription of portion of our trip, from Santa Fe to Los Angeles:
 From Santa Fe our party went to Flagstaff, Arizona for the purpose of visiting the canon and other points of historical and geographi- cal interest.
 No part of our journey has been of more interest than our visit to Walnut canon, once the home oi the Cliff Dwellers. This canon is about three miles long and from 300 to LOGO feet wide. Its sides rise in narrow terraces and far up beneath the cliffs are found the ruins of the homes of this prehistoric people of whom little is or can be known. The rooms are arr anged much like set of soldiers barracks, twenty or more in a groop. separated by wall made of stone and cemented with kind of clay. The rooms are on an average about 10 feet wide and from 70 to 90 feet in length. Pieces of broken pottery, few small corn eobs that have bee n found cemented in the walls and an Dccaslonal utensil of stone are 1 that remains to tell of the life and Character of these early North Americans.
 Some mlnes about 65 miles mort b of Flagstaff have been recently ex- amined and many curios have been exhumed. Innumerable strings of beads and ornaments of various kinds, pottery of different colors and designs, woven coitoL cloth aud few mummies make up part of this valuable collection.
 The mummies and skeletons that have been found seem to indicate that the people were of small size, Somewhat like the Pueblo Indians of today, but with the collection ast men tioned was skeleton of a 1an who must have been fully 8 feet tall. showing that there were giants in those days too. 1t is esti- mated that the race abandoned their home or were entirely exterminated about 800 or LOGO years ago. The cloth in which the bodies of the dead were ohcased and some other things seem to indicate that the people possessed at least some of the arts of civilized life.
 Quite a number of our party Undertook the long and tiresome Journey to the Grand Canon, The canon .ies wholly in Arizona and

Omaha-A mystery surrounds the
personality Of the young woman who
killed herself in q hotel In Hastings,
Neb., last night by swallowing large
quantity Of morphine. She had regis
tered as Mrs. w. l.. Leo, Balt Lake
City" but as kilograms have been sent
to Salt Lake and various other places
and no Identification has been made, it
is generally believed that Lee is not her

At the coroners inqust held today it
was learned that the woman arrived In
Hastings Tuesday night on Burlington

led by man who escorted her to a hack
The couple were driven TO tho Bostwick

RESENT A SLIGHT.

Lincoln-The slight put upon Mr.
Bryan by the Republican managers Of
the reception to be rendered to the
First Nebraska regiment upon Its re-
turn to the state next month was bitter
ly resented by the Democratic and Pop
ulist county convention held here today
Resolutions were adopted scoring the
management, reciting that it was inten-
tionally done, despite the fact that Mr..
Bryan's old regiment, the Third, was
invited to participate; that the managers
saw fat to invite a Republican colonel
from New York. Roosevelt, and ignore
the moet distinguished citizen Of ths
state solely because it was feared he
would spoil the imperialistic jubilee
they had planned.
Committees were appointed to request
Mr. Bryan 70 deliver an address one
evening during the three days OF the
reception upon the issue OF tho day, es-
pecially upon tho Philippine war.
Mr.. Bryan is absent from the city and
it is not known whether he will aceede
to the request. Only one fusionist gov
ernor, Pointer. has been placed upon
the programme for q speech. All the
other speakers are eminent Republicans
including President Mckinley, who has
promised to be present.

Of Col. Clark Balloon /.

The following little article is taken
from Yesterdays Denver News. 1t will
be information which many OF the citi-
zens Of Grand junction will be glad t.
gst. It has been a matter OF conject-
ure whero the famous Col Clark Bal
com, the most notorious wind bag who
ever struck this section had hied him
self to: na
"Clark Balcom Of CIR and Junction will
In few weeks take six carloads OF
Rock, Ford melons and cantaloupes to
New York in his patent refrigera ting
cara III which compressed air is used to
preserve the fruit. He expects by his
new process to be able to get the mel
ons to market much cheaper than with
the ice process Of refrigerating. II the
sale Of the melons is profitable a large
shipment OF Delta county fruit will be
made later In tho season."
When the people OF Rocky Ford get
through with Col. Balcom they will
have more experience, but no more
money than when they commenced. He
is harmless fellow il he is allow.d all
the rope he can get. a. he soon winds up
his little ball of yarn.
When in this city tho doughty Col
onel purchased, In his mind, every pour d
OF fruit in the valley. He was to build
a new ditch and do other sundry and
impossible things. There il ono thing
attractive about the Colonel, he is de-
lightful liar, an interesting one and can
keep body Of men at all times listening
to his proposed achemes to revolu utionize
the world with some now Invention or
other. .'

to General Ludlow. governor of the de-
partmcnt Of Havana, that the city is
able to bear n s.5.OOOOOO debt. Tho pros
ent six per cent. obligations, amounting
TO sl2,509.990 will be refunded and tho
remainder of the new bond issue will
be used for improvements. If tho ey-
listing debt alone was refunded Mr.
Haskins thinks 1t could be done nj four
per cent. and the total issue of s25. 600
700 would be favorably received in New
York at five Der cent. There are no
legal obstacles in the way of an immc-
alhtc rounding. providing the 'city
council wishes to do so.
General Ludlow desires to have Ua-
Vann severed and paved under his i'm

experience and takes much interest In
municipal improvements. He would
prefer TO lay aside the Dady and Haw-
ley projects. The Havana council may
