TREASURES OF AZTEC TIMES.
Valuable Archaeological objects
Found in the Gale de las
EScaIerIIIas.

The work that has been carried on in
the Gale de las Escalerillas for the lay
ing of the sewer mains has led to i'm
portant archaeological discoveries, for,
as is well known, that street, as well
as the present cathedral, formed part
of the site of the great temple of HUT
zilopochtli, the Aztec god of war.
The latest discoveries seem to be
the most important of all. Foremost
among them are two-fgures of the god
Ehecatl (god of air), the companion Of
Quetzacoatl. One of these figures is
painted red, yellow and black, and, in
spite of the dampness of the ground
where it has lain for centuries, the coll
ors have remained fresh and vivid.
These idols are adorned with disks
of gold, which are polished and en-
graved in remarkable manner, says
the Mexican Herald. The disks are
about 20 centimeters in diameter and
the gold plate is of fair thickness.
Other objects found at the same
time were four ear ornaments of gold,
gold jewel case belonging to the god
of air, beads, amulets of green stone,
axes of slick, small idols of stone, lances
of sharp stones, a curious mask of
pyrite of iron, knives of large dimen-
sions, mask of diorite, censers of
earthenware painted in colors and many
other figures of stone and cement, the
latter being always polychromatic.

MAKE GOOD DETECTIVES.
Many Women Seem Adapted to the
Work of Ferreting Out
Crimes.

In New York city and the surround
ing towns almost 100 women are en-
gagged in detective work; in Chicago
the number of women similarly en-
ployed is quite large, says the Chron-
icle. A large percentage of these wom-
en- are employed in the big stores,
where shoplifting is so commonly
practiced, that the head of one large
establishment said: "We could no
more do without detective in this
store than we could do without a
model to show off our gowns" The
lodges of shoplifters are innumera-
bic. Some wear long capes and slip
lengths of silk or passementerie,
feathers and handkerchiefs under
their arms; others wear outer skirts
with long Sits concealed by the gath
ers, so that they can slip their thefts
into pockets in an underdress known
as a "kickshirt." Handkerchiefs and
gloves are tucked into muffs and bod
ices, and, worse than all, children are
pressed into the service. One success
full woman thief tucks lace and en-
broidery and any l1nick- knacks she
can lay hands on down the backs of
her two little children, who are ex-
quisitely dressed; others instruct
their small daughters to take any
thing that is put in their way. Chill
dren of eight and nine make clever
shoplifters. Sometimes two women
work together and then it is very diff
icult for the detective to trap them.
Women detectives are valued and well
paid whom they are skillful.

COMMITS SUICIDE.
John E. Heating, of Des Moines,
Kills Himself.

John E. Heating, of Des Moines,
committed suicide at the Downing
Hotel in this city Saturday night. He
shot him. elf in the head with 3D.
calibre revolver about 10 o'clock and
died about O'Clock Sunday morning.
The ball entered his brain just above
the nose and between the eye brows,
and the wound was so vital that he
did not regain consciousness. DIR. E.
L. Fitch happened to be in the hotel
lobby at the time and he went to
Keating's room at once, but medical
aid was of no avail. DR.. r. O. Hoff-
man was also called.
Mr.. Heating come from Des Moines
on the evening Rock Island train ar
irving here at 9:10. He went inn
mediately to the hotel and registered,
writing his name and address in
flowing and legible hand. He was as
signed to room No. 10 and retired at
once. He had been in his room only
few minutes when the report of the
revolver vas heard. 1t aroused many
of the guests of the hotel and caused
considerable excitement for a few
minutes. When the hotel employees
and DR.. Fitch entered the room they
found him lying on the floor, blood
oozing from the wound and the re-
volver at his side.
The dead man is a brother of Capt.
w. H. Heating, of this city, and he
left letter addressed to the latter.
The letter was only note asking his
relatives and friends to forgive him
for the rash act. He said he was dis
couraged and disheartened over the
fact that he feared be would be
cripple all his life, the result of an
injury sustained last spring. 1t that
time he was employed on farm land
in helping to lift some machinery or
heavy material in the barn, the board
of the floor on which he was standing
gave way. The heel of one foot only
went through, doubling his foot up
and tearing the ligaments Of the heel
loose from the bones. The accident
was very painful and he suffered
severely for months. He had appar-
emily recovered, however, and had
been at work on farm near Des
Moines all fall, husking corn and do
ing a mans work. The wound both
cred him some and made him lame,
but his friends supposed it would
eventually heal up. When he walked
through the hotel lobby Saturday
night, the guests sitting there did not
notice that he was lame at all.
Mr.. Heating was SO years old and
had lived in Iowa 81 years. He was
born in Boston, Mass, and came west
with his parents when one year old.
The remains were taken to the home
of his brother, Capt. w. H, Heating,
where they were prepared for burial.
A prayer service was held there early
on Monday morning and the body
was then taken on the morning Iowa
Central train to Belle PLANE. From
there it was taken to Walnut Greek
in Poweshiek county for interment.
Deceased leaves three brothers and
one sister to mourn his untimely
death. The family have the sympathy
OF all in their bereavement.

ing nicely. The kidney trouble, how
ever, does not yield to treatment. To-
wards evening the senator became rest

co. T REUNION.
Veterans of the Philippine War
Have Happy Time.

Volunteers, together with few in
vited guests, held a happy reunion in
Kalbach's hall Saturday night. In
order to accommodate all the boys who
are employed in stores and other
business houses, the banquet and ex-
ercises were delayed until II p. m.
From then on, merriment and good
fellowship flowed freely for several
hours. Cigars and refreshments
were served, Charles Moore of the
Mendenball chop house being the
caterer. Sergeant Fred Moore acted
as POSTMASTER and a number of ex
cellent responses we're had. The
boys related many of their expert
ences, lived over again incidents that
happened in the Philippines, sang
their army songs and gave the yells
that distinguished the Iowa boys in
their campaigns.
Fred Moore and Harry Carbon had
charge of the arrangements and they
left nothing undone for the pleasure
and entertainments of the guests. The
intention now is to make the reunion
an annual affair, and judging by the
success of the first one, none of the
boys will miss any of them. Mayor
Wray was guest of honor and re-
sponded to a toast. The old members
of the company, and ex-members of
the Spanish-American war army
present were as follows:

Through all this fervid welcome the

The cries were confined to plaudits

general tumult. So direct had been
the warnings of the project of police,
NJ. Pepine, to cause the arrest of per-
