Will Not Depend on
Summit Lake.
Boilers For Great 100000
Gallon Pump.
Are Now In PositIon-An Expendi-
ture of 100000.

The Akron Water Works company
within the next six months proposes
to supply it's patrons with pure spring
water.
The company has commenced sink
ing a number of artesian wells. A
number have been completed and the
supply from these has been so large
that it is now believed a supply suffi-
cient for the entire city can be OBJ
tanned in this way. The company feels
so much encouraged that dozen ad.
ditional wells will be sunk at once.
If the experiment proves success
full Summit Lake water will not be
used except in times of great emer-
gencies. The work has been carried
on very quietly and but few people
knew that the company was sinking
the wells.
The new 100000 gallon pump will
be ready for use Dec. 1. Work on
the foundation will begin next week,
The boilers were placed in position this
3
week. The improvements now under
way will cost 100000. 1t is the in.
tentlon to make the local pumping sta
tion one of the finest in Ohio.

Meeting Of Pomona Grange at North
ampton Saturday.

dIHptOH SdtuTudy.
The October meeting of Summit
county Pomona grange was held at
Northampton Grange Hall Saturday,
Oct. 13.
The weather was fine and the at
tendance good.
A table filled with exhibits of apples,
sweet potatoes and two plates Of
Strawberries, ranging from blossoms to
mature ripe berries, was one of the
pleasing features of the meeting.
. After partaking of a bountiful dim
ner the Master called the meeting to
order in the fifth degree.
After disposing of the special busi-
ness an open meeting was held and
those waiting outside were invited in
for the literary program.
The committee on state grange ar
rangements reported that contracts
had been secured with all of the ho-
tells except the Buchtel, which refused
to make any reduction from the regu-
lar 50 rate. The report was accepted
and the committee continued. The
prospects are now good for an enthus.
iastic meeting of State Grange at Ak
ron in December.
NJ. Crawford exhibited specimens of
the dwarf COW peas, planted about
July i, showing vigorous growth and
an abundant development Of nitrogen
tubercles on the roots.
A general discussion of the merits of
the mammoth and dwarf varieties of
COW peas followed, q number of the
members present having sown eXper-
mental plots. 1t makes an excellent
crop for late forage, showing n high
per centage of protsin, so essential in
the production of milk. The exhibit Of
strawberries brought out some discus
sion as to what causes berries to grow
in the fall.
There is no known method by which
full crop can surely be produced,
but 1t seems that dry summer follow
by moist growing weather is quite
likely to produce some October berries.
Several of the members had found ripe
strawberries in October this year.
S. ]. Baldwin called attention to the
Grout bill in Congress, which will be
called up Dec. 6, and that we should
sec to it that our member of Congress
pledges himself to vote for it.
The next meeting will be held at
Tallmadge, Nov. 10.

Approve Of the Proposals In the
French Note.

Paris, Oct. 16.-(Spl.)-A dispatch
from Tien Tsin, dated Oct 10, says
that at the Council of foreign minis
ters the proposals contained in the
French note were unanimously ap-
proved. Conger demurred as to the
procedure. He suggested that the
French propositions should be imposed
on China by negotiations and not
made the basis of negotiations. The
British representative urged in addi-
ton that Tsung Ii Yamen should be
replaced by single foreign ministers.
Also that adists concerning the pun

for two years. The British sugges-
tions were unanimously approved.

Aztecs-that he, Monte zuma is to come
as he did once before in Mexico, to re.
deem his people The names of Monte
yuma and Quetzalc oatl are here inter
mingled and confused; there is, how
ever, little doubt that the Quetzalcoatl
cult is introduced in the name of Monte
yuma.
There are images of Quetzalcoatl in
Mexico that nearly resemble the image
of Buddha. as he is represented in China
and India. There are mounds in China,
Japan and India that closely resemble
the mounds and pyramids of Mexico.
There are decorations in the buried
cities of Mexico, which, when uncov-
cred, display wonderful resemblance to
Chinese and Japanese fresco work. The
figures as we'll as the colors are suggest
i've of the Orient.
1t is not incredible that there has
been contact between ancient India,
Japan and China with America. The
route of the Chinese explorer, Hwui
Shan, along the coast lines of Asia,
across the North Pacific ocean, from one
Aleutian island to the other, each al.
most in sight Of the other, and thence
to the Alaskan border, sheds light on
the great problem. It is certain that
the tribes of Siberia crossed Bering
strait and it is not improbable that en-
terprising explorers of that day pro-
ceeded southwark to the temperate
climes that invited their approach.

WE WONDER.
Ottumwa, Iowa.

It would be interesting to know what
the late George William Curtis thinks
of the modern Harper's Weekly, sup
posing that Journal Of Civilization to
circulate where Mr.. Curtis is at present.
Even as we view with alarm the display
of feminine undergarments in some of
our contemporaries, so do we contem-
plate with amazement the exhibit of
other worldly matters contained in the
Weekly; and we are sometimes con-
strained to wonder, Is this the Civiliza-
tion which we represent among the
nations of the earth? In the current
number of that publication we reckon
up no less than ten advertisements of
spirituous liquors of various kinds,
besides solicitations in behalf of playing
cards, cigars, beautiful busts, improved
syringes, and other wares which were
esteemed monstrous naughty by Mr..
Curtis, Dr. Holland and many of their
contemporaries.
Then there is picture, given without
comment, of which the moral is by no
means clear to us. 1t represents an in
surance agent being tossed in blanket
by the boys in alumber camp. The idea
appears eminently feasible, but are we
to understand that the editor recon-
mends so radical course? Is the
Weekly becoming incendiary? Or is
this too an advertisement, planned in
the interest of the accident insurance
companies, designed to secure for them
an increased patronage on the part of
fire and life insurance agents?

before him he who looks upon China
man. either east or west, will see an
Indian. There is the same high cheek
bone, straight, black and coarse hair and
the impassive face of each to bear testi-
mony.
The picture here presented is faith
full representation of terra Gotta image
found in an excavation made by the
author of this paper, in the great pyra
mid of Cholula, Mexico. The image
was found in condition that would
prevent any attempt at fraud {; it was
found in an excavation or trench made
in lower terrace of the great pyramid
and in close connection with mall OBJ
jects of pottery. It is the face of a
Chinaman. The theory is that these
images were made to represent the peo-
pie who participated in building the
pyramid. Whatever there may be in
this, the fact remains that the image
was found in the situation described.
Mexico a Land of Mystery.
Mexico is land of mystery the
Aztecs, who came to the valley about
six hundred years ago were themselves
intruders, the successors of race that
had flourished and fell many years be-
fore the advent of the latter. The
Aztecs were not the builders of the
great pyramids at Teotihuacon and at
N,ol,1o Tbov ooroo IN tho uo11ox, xpboro
the Toltecs $50 called) had fourished,
appropriated the idols and sculpture of
the vanished people, made sacrificial
stones of the historical records Of their
predecessors and built lowly teocallis in
imitation of the great structure in the
ancient City of the Gods, Teotihuacon.
Nearly one thousand years prior to
this, Quetzalcoatl had introduced the
gentle religion of the Buddhists. We
have no means of knowing who had
been in the country before, but it seems
there were no human sacrifices, so far
as is known, until after the Aztecs had
taken possession of Anahuac.
No less historian and scientist than
the great Humboldt, bears testimony to
the Quetzalcoatl myth, if myth it be,
and to the facts that give it solid
foundation in American mythology. It
is to be said that tradition in nearly
every instance has foundation of truth
no matter how improbable may be the
relation. The story of Quetzalcoatl ap.
pears in many places. Humbolt says of
him, that he was without doubt, the
most mysterious being of all the Mexi-
can mythology. Hwui Shan, the rep.
uted leader of the party Of five Budd-
hist priests, claims to have been associat-
ed with him. He was high priest, a
legislator and man of great wisdom.

THE NEGRO AND THE SUFFRAGE.

edited by Rev Il. w. Williams, negro,
speaking of the social problem says:
prominent colored citizens of New
York held a great mass. meeting at
Cooper Union October 3, and said that
negro disfranchisement was the para
mount issue. They passed resolutions
protesting against the disfranchising of
negroes in Southern States; calling on
congress to reduce the representation of
such states in proportion to votes cast
asking congress to pass laws for the en-
forcement of the Thirteenth, -Four.
teenth and Fifteenth amendments to the
Constitution, and force bill if neces.
sary, protesting against lynching ask
ing the president to use military force
to prevent lynching.
1--WE think that we have lived long
enough to know that great mass meet
ings held by colored citizens of New
York, however prominent they may be,
to protest against the disfranchisement
of the colored people of the south, mean
absolutely nothing but trouble for the
negroes Of the south.
"That true life and existence which
we covet, and which all good people de-
sire that the negro should have, will not
and cannot come to him by any legisla-
tive enactment or by any constitutional
amendments.
1--WE would, therefore, say to the COL
ored people of the country, that their
best interests are not to be found in the
sentiments set forth in the New York
meeting reported above. We will never
live to see the day when congress will
pass laws for the enforcement of the
Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth
amendments, neither will there be a
force bill to prevent lynching passed by
congress.
"Our advice to the colored people of
the country is to take no stock in such
delusive sentiments to do so would be
fatal to our own best interests our des.
tiny as citizens of this great common
wealth is in our hands we may shape it

tion of congress- We have had con-
gressional enactments in our behalf, and
they are now and ever will be dead let
ters, so far as any intervention of con.
gress is concerned. This is sufficient to
teach us that our success cannot come
to us through such abnormal measures.
"The greatest blow the negro has ever
received, and one from whose damaging
effects he will never recover, was given
him by congressional enactments. 1t
was the unconditional imposition of the
right of franchise, for which he was in
no way qualified. No government has
ever done defenseless people greater
injury.
"We do not consider that those states
that have passed amendments to their
