REMARKABLE RUINS.
Lately Investigated by Special Agent
 Holsinger.

Mir. $. J. Holslnger, special agent of the interior department, has lately re- turned from the ruins at Bonita Pueb- la, N M., about 70 miles north of Gal lup. The object of his visit was to in spect the ruins. which are perhaps the most remarkable on the western con t.nent. with view to preparing a re- port to the government recommending that they be included in a national park or reservation. The ruins consist of eighteen buildings of various sizes, ranging from 2J0 rooms to 1900 rooms. The buildings are constructed of a kind of red stone quite Skillfully cut and set in an ir\'structible cement. The largest house is semi-circular in shape. The diameter or front is 732 feet, while half the perimeter measures more than 1900 feet. This Is considerably bigger house than the Waldorf Astoria. An other containing 800 rooms is ellipti- cal. The larger building is four stories in height as to it's outer wall The apartments are arranged in tiers or rows, each being one story less than the outer one. The center of each building contains courtyard. The stories range from twelve to fifteen feet in height. The joists or vegas are perfectly straight logs highly polished. The ends have been cut off as smooth as If the work were done with a saw. It must have been done with thin stone knives, great many of which have been found in the vicinity and represent incredible labor On top of the vegas there are willow poles all per fectly straight. fastened together so neatly and closely as to resemble sheets of corrugated iron.
 Almost nothing Is known in the out side world of these ruins though for long time the Hyde exploration com pany has been engaged in investigat- Ing them The company has explored Sso rooms of the largest building and has secured 5O,0O0 pieces of turquoise. several of them as large as mans hand. 5000 piecs of pottery, 10000 stone instruments and innumers ble other ar ticles, among them feather blankets, heads and sandals. Only fourteen bod tes have SO far been recovered. The company has suspended operations pending action by the government.

scene as bad.
At Elsinore the principal hotel. the
Jensen house, was partially wrecked
and will have to be rebuilt. Inc
guests escaped unhurt except for the
shock to their nerves.
The schools were in session when
some of the worst shocks occurred in
the forenoon, and there was another
panic there. The children attempted
to break for safety. but the teachers
managed to prevent a serious STAN
pede.
At Joseph the same situation devel-
oped. None of the children were hurt.
Mrs. Russell Kelly had a narrow es-
cape from a falling rock. She was
standing beside the stone house where
she resides when the building col
lapsed. The debris fell on all sides of
her. and a rock knocked her hat off
and grazed the side of her face, falling
at her side.
At the Annie Laurie mine on Gold
mountain the miners felt the earth
shake and heard rocks begin to fall
in various portions of the mine. There
were several minor caves, but the

At Kimberley there was n landslide
down the mountain which wrecked
some dwellings.
The Clear Creek road was blocked by
another landslide. Still another came
down over the Rio Grande Western

were broken and communication with
the outside world was interrupted.

Victoria. Il. C. Nov. 15.-Among the
arrivals by the steamer Empress Of
China from the Orient was Lieutenant
Il, +. Allison of the United States
Navy, who was on his way home from
Manila. Speaking of the massacre of
the members of the Ninth infantry at
Samar he said but the natives mad
grown to like the colored troops who
had been stationed there, and when
the Ninth arrived it was thought by
the Americans that the same friendly
feeling would be shown to them and
the guard was not as strictly kept as
it otherwise would have been.
The night before the massacre the
village presidente came to Captain
Connell and before the padre declared
that IL would take 100 more bombres
native laborers) to do certain pioneer
work. He did not have the men and
begged the Indulgence of the army cap
,ain. Honest and true In the leglt-
innate discharge of his duty, Captain
Connell said: DO the best you can.
Get any native who will work, but
clear away the underbrush."
Just after daybreak the natives with
bolOs to cut underbrush began coming
INTO camp. Then the massacre began.
The last underbrush man killed the
sentry, the church bell rang, the sol
ilers went to breakfast below the floor
that held their arms; the insurgents
scparated-half went up stairs and
shot down. and the other half went
into the mess room and murdered the
unarmed soldiers by force Of numbers.
Not one of the survivors turned his
back upon the scene of carnage until
all was lost. their officers fallen, their
comrades slaughtered and a terrible
vengeance executed upon the enemy.
They then saved themselves and their
wounded men.

Gently tainted at a dinner given in her

not been able to touch either her feet
to the floor or her back to the chair;
and the restricted circulation and
prolonged discomfort had finally over

present mania for high seats to the
fact that at the old French court sets
of handsome furniture were ranged
along the walls for effect, but never
occupied. The chairs and sofas actually
used were much lower. Furniture

into bits, severing the head, upon

Dcouillard's detachment which came
down from Basey.
Separated from their weapons, most
of the rank and file fought like heroes
with table knives, stones, clubs, and
such rude weapons as chance threw in
their way. 1t was bitter fate that
befell the black-a-moors who closed
with the Americans before they mad

the native dead were buried by their
own crew before they fled, but Colonel
De Russey ordered 1G0 more to be
