Central American
Ruins.

"The ancient ruins of Central Am
erica furnish the most tempting ielu
for exploration Of any spot on earth"
says Or. John Rec Chandler Of
Buffalo, who was formerly govern
nsnt archsolOgist ef GuAtsmala,
and is peeliarly familiar with tho
subject. "Unlike the ruins in the
Far East" he says, they have Sufe-
red but little from spOliAtion. The
worst instance of that Kind was at
Santa Anna, in GuAtemala. In the
early eighties some Germans obtain
ed . permit from the president and
literally sASed Of the trent ofons Of
the most wonderful old temples in
existence. Instead of taking the
entire columns, they ripped of strips
with stone saws and in that way
secured vast quantity Of eIt.Aord-
mary bas relief carvings, which are
now in tho National Museum at
Berlir, and arong the most treasHr-
ed Of all that great institutions pos
sessions. 1t was a piece Of eusrag-
eous vandalism and, happily, has
never been repeated. The most
interesting ruins yet discovered are
at st. Lucia Oszumalquepa, in 6ua-
temala; at Quirigua and zasulen,
and at Uxmsl and Tikal, IN Yucat-
an. At Quirigua there are . num-
Der Of enormous monoliths covered
with the NEST intricate and beautliui
carving. They lined q sort Of patn'
way up to . temple. At Aaeulen
the ruins are especially remarkable
for the many large buildings. As
was evidently at one time 9 great
tribal capital. These, and scores OF
ether ruins, have hardly been toucn-
cd by explorers, and there is no
telling what wonders they contain.
The only considerable work that has
been done in that region is by the

have been coming down every year.

''The idea of an army of occupa-

in view of the fact that the United

BULLETIN NO. 3.

We find that for some reason the far
mers in the valley have not as yet tegun
to deliver their beets in any considerable
quantity. -,
Under our agreement with them we
ordered in the beets this year at tbs
earliest possible moment starting about
the 10th of September and up to this
date, tho 15tn OF October, we have only
received about 1900 tons of beets
We feel that it is necessary to urge
upon the farmers the fact that they are
injuring themselves and also the Sugar
Company by not making every effort to
hurry in the beets when ordered.
We hoped to open the factory about
the 5th Of October, but fnd it will be
the 18th before we can possibly get
started. When we do start every farm
ner should be actually at work in order
to avoid the necessity of closing down
This is a doubly serious matter to US as
the Ditch Company desires to close
down on the water before it will be pos
sible for US to work up the bsets when
they are so slow in coming in
On reading this notice we want to ask
every farmer te put iorth every effort to
deliver their beets to US without delay.
