plored in the vicinity The material
is brown jasper in the best speci-
mems and grades down to light vel
low color and softer quality of
stone. Some specimens have q chalky
appearance and look as if they may be
changed by the weather. I am not
sure about the place from which this
brown material came, as I have not
seen any Of it in the quarry, but par
ties living in Franklin county told me
it is found there and hear of quarry
on the Niobrara river also.
The chipping is much finer, the i'm
plements much more artistic and the
forms much different than any have
yet described in detail. The
"Scraper'' is greatly in evidence in
this locality. This is blunt instru-
ment which is flat or concave OH one
side and Clipped to resemble thumb
on the other it was used to dress hides
by being fastened in the end of piece
of elk horn. This elk horn was tri-
angular piece with handle about ten
inches long and the part to which the
scraper was attached was about five
inches long; this made sort of hoe
with a flint edge and must have been
quite effective. We are enabled to
give such all accurate description be-
cause we have found them with the
flints inserted, and the recent Indians
used the same tool with piece of iron
in place of the flint. A great quantity
of these scrapers has been gathered
OH the Wright site.
Large implements are numerous;
one is unique; it is about four inches
long and over two wide it looks like

the other, which gives it the appear.
has grown larger than the other. Its
very effective corn knife if fitted with
handle. The large implements
found along the Platte and its tribu-
taries are to be studied carefully, as
they form class not common. Here
is where Nebraska excels, and hope
to see the day when we will know
more Of these massive flints. One was
found near Fullerton that measures
twenty-three inches in length, which
I have mentioned before. When we
know the use of this huge implement,
we can better tell what the smaller
ones were used for.
A number of very small "war
points, were found. These are not
over an inch long and many are half
that length. They have no notches
in the side, but were fastened loosely
in the split end of the arrow shaft.
so that upon pulling out the shaft the
point would be left in the wound.
These little bits of flint are Clipped SO
skillfully and made so sharp that one
must conclude that much pains was
taken in their manufacture.
Another small point is also quite
common; these are called "bird
points by our eminent archaeologists,
and are scarcely larger than the war
points they have notches cut in the
sides, sometimes two pairs of them,
and some have been found in the east

on this very hill for the grave of his
sister, where his mother told him she
was buried, "when the Pawnees lived
on this hill" He was evidently
wrong, as Judge Hudson, of Colum-
bus, told me that he passed over this
ground many times in the early 4O's
and the ruins looked as ancient then
as they do now.
speak Of this to show you the con-
fiicting testimony with which one has
to contend in this connection. If we are
to take the form, size and general mode
of structure in the village, which we
know the Pawnees built, as criterion,
am quite sure the Pawnees had some
thing to do with the building of the
Wright site. This is not safe prentice,
however, so we can only say with
was similar to the Pawnee mode of
construction.
None of the early travellers mention
this as all inhabited village, so far as
my reading has yet shown; many of
them speak of this territory as "Paw-
nee country" but the location is not
specifically mentioned anywhere that
I have been able to find. So may we
not safely assume that it at least an
ti-dates the white traveller?
A careful tracing of the Pawnee
tribe proper, or the Chou-i, the Kit
ke-hahk-i and the Pita -hau -erat bands
leads one to believe that they never
lived so far west, but the Skidi band
was found further west Con Horse
Greek, west of Fullerton)by Ellsworth,
in 1882. Ellsworth followed up the
Platte river that year on trip to
make treaties with the Indians, and, if
so large village existed so near his
route, would he not have been likely
to at least mention it? However, he
found the Skidi band farther west,
but we know that these same Skidis
came form the south, so it is possible
that they occupied the Wright site on
their way up the Loup in all early
day. That it was occupied before
contact with the whites is quite evil
dent, as no iron has been found and
not single article shows contact ex-
cept small piece of substance that
has every appearance of bone or ivory

feet under ground and found in black
and ashes; had passed through five

this site, thought it proved contact
with the whites, but upon careful ex-
animation it was found to be beaten
out of native copper and had never
been through mill, as can be seen
by the uneven edges A number of
copper bangles were found and one
very fine knife, showing all unev en-
thickness as if beaten out by hand
this knife is two inches long and
nearly all inch wide.
The pottery found here is not the
same as that found OH the Roca site,
but is better preserved and more elab-
orately ornamented. The handles are
different design in general. No
fabric impressions are to be found ex-
cept very few found near the more
ancient lodge circles The difference
in the pottery first drew my attention
to the difference in age shown on
the site.
To the north of the village site are
steep bluffs and at their base runs the
Beaver creek; these bluffs are so
steep that horse can scarcely climb
them they formed good barrier to
the north, while at the south side of
the village still may be traced a trench
and the bank of earth which came out
of it, reaching from one draw to the
other; the draws are deeply worn and
the banks are scarcely less than on the
protected, as is the north, by steep
bluffs; the south was evidently pro-
tected by a ditch and bank, and the
site was admirably situated from
military point Of view The ditch is
sixty yards long, and this part of the
site covers over ten acres.
Many of the lodge circles are sixty
feet across; they are very plainly
defined, as the land was first broken a
year ago. They show that the lodges
were built OH top of the ground, not
dug down as so many are. The fire
place (when it can be found at ally is
at the surface. The depressions are
three feet deep in some instances, or
more properly, the circular ridges are
three feet high.
There are also few ''mound
houses" found here, of which shall
have occasion to speak when describe
another site, not far away.
On the next ridge to the east is the
place of sepulchre, five acres COM
pletely covered with graves; it was
here that the Pawnee boy thought he
found the grave of his sister, but the
Pawnees never buried here but Oh
low ground near their village. The
graves are plowed up every spring.

ENGINEERS OF THE WORLD.

Worlds Fair, St. Louis, Oct. 7.-Ihe many great engineering works oI Ine world and their fast increasing nun. ha1. lraya prompted the organizers oI inc Worlds fair to give due recogni- lion to the profession. Col. John A: Oclyerson chief of the Department or Liberal Arts. himself an engineer Who has to his credit many great Wofks, has published the following letter TOT the information of members or the pro fession everywhere: 1.-The agitation III engineering societies as to the proprl- ety of a code of ethics 10 govern the members of our profession Is evidence of q desire to ennoble the calling of tha engineer. None of the so called learned professions is so intimately connected with the material prosper ity of our country as is that of engi- neering. Yet in the face of all this, the profession is not held in that high esteem to which it is justly entitled. This is due. in a great measure, to the fact that the public is not as familiar as it should be with the functions Of the engineer, whose individuality is more or less oyershadoWed by the great corporation which employs him.
 ssMuch can be done at great exposi- lions by bringing the general public into contact with the work which the engineer has wrought and which em, phasizes his science, ingenuity and skill Heretofore engineering work at expositions has been somewhat ob- scured by being mixed up with trans portation and other related matters which indeed are closely akin to it. In the coming exposition at St. Louis, civil, military and architectural engi- neering pertaining to public works, will be housed together in the Liberal Arts palace.
 ''Inl the interests of the profession as well as those of. the exposition, l hope to secure for the several groups 1 devoted to engineering the best ex- amples of what the engineer has wrought in all parts of the world With the proper cooperation of the engineering profession, which should be readily accorded, there would be gathered at the coming exposition the greatest engineering exhibit which the world has ever known. Every engi- neer can do something toward the re- alization of the much desired result '

THE LITTLE F1NGERNAIL.
It Was Worn Long Many Years Ago, Hut Now It Is Carefully
 Manicured.

Forty years ago in certain parts of the United States it was the custom to grow long nails. I we'll remember some of the swelIs and buffers who de voted more attention to their little finger nails than they did to their teeth, and often have seen the fifth digit with a claw on it an inch and a quarter in length. The nail was car ried in a stall, and on occasion was split after the manner of a steel or quill pen, so that it's wearer could sign his name to a. check with it, says a writer in the New York Press. The trimming of nails to-day is an art which gives employment to many pret- ty women who style themselves mani cures. Nearly every hrst-c1ass, up-to- date barber shop has it's manicure, who delights the man needing shave or hair cut with an innocent filtration. She dresses garishly and has strut on her that would arouse the envy Of a saddle-astride fox chaseress.

DAN PATCH PAGES IN. DOB
He Falls to Break Record on Closing
 Day of Grand Circuit

Day of Grand Circuit.
 Cincinnati, Oct 7.-Dan Patch failed h his attempt to lower the worlds pacing record of 1:59A at the closing days racing of the Grand circuit on the Oakley track yesterday. The best this noted pacer could do was to 20 mile in 2:O3. The track was not in condition for a record breaking per- formance, and, all things considered. Dan Patch's exhibition yesterday is considered by well-posted turfmen to be remarkable.
 The bog race of the day was the Ohio purse for 2:11 trotters valued at $10,OO0. Before the race experienced turfmen predicted that it would prove the event of the year on the trotting turf, and they were not far off. No grander struggle was ever witnessed. than that of yesterday. Every heat was horse race from beginning to end, and the 5000 spectators almost wen wild with enthusiasm. The win ner, Anzella, is from the Santa Rosa stock farm of Santa Rosa, California, and is owned by Mildreth Sanders, who drove her. Major Delmar was fayorite in the pools. The first heat went to the major after pretty con test. The next was taken by the blind son of Oakland Baron, Rythmic, driven by Scott Hudson. The third heat fell to Major Delmar, but in the remaining three Anze1la led the way l to the wire, hard pressed in all the 1 heats excepting the deciding one. Dan Patch in his attempt to set a new record was paced by running horse. The track was dry but had soft bottom to it. Before the race M. E. McHenry, the driver of Dan l Patch, made an announcement through l Starter Williams that he did not look l for his horse to go the mile in better than 2:03. His prediction proved cor rect as Dan Patch paced the distance in that time exactly. He covered the first quarter in 31 seconds, the half in 1:OOA, the three-quarters, 1311a, and I the mile in 2:O3. To-day's racing winds up the Grand circuit of 1902. I What promised to be a very com Dlicated situation presented itself ln I the last heat of the 2:11 trot when Starter Williams called the field back without the drivers hearing the signal. Fortunately the three starters accept I d if as d start and as no protest was offered it was allowed to stand. . The time was PHO, 2:09, 2:111A, 2:13, 2:121z, 2:13s4.

CITY LEAGUE AfEETING.
All Arrangements Made for the Final
 Game, Brooklyns vs Pastimes

There was very quiet and short meeting of the City Amateur league last night at St Josephs rooms and arrangements were quickly perfected for the playing of the final game on next Sunday afternoon at the Driving park. AS the days are growing short CT and it becomes dark quite early now, the game will be started at 2:3O in stead of 3 o'clock. The grounds will be put in excellent condition and will be roped off in preparation for the big crowd that will be in attendance. Both Managers Madden and Mcdonald deny that money has been offered to any players to throw the game and each was anxious to find out who made the statement. 1t is easy for such a re- port to start however, owing to the anxiety of the friends of each team. It will be game worth going miles to see and will be the hottest one that has been played in the league this season. So many stories have been Tn cIrcu- lation about the buying of players from the PaStimes and the BrOokIyns that the following, winch was overheard on the cars the other day is worth telling. Four young ladies were riding on one of the city trolley lines, two of them champions of the Brooklyns and the others the friends of the Pastimes. They were having an interesting argu- ment as to the outcome of the final game and accusations were passed back and forth until finally one of the Pastime enthusiasts arose from her seat and pointing to the champions of the BrooklynS, spoke as follows: Manager Madden of the Brooklyns of fered $50 to Pete Meehan to quit the Pastimes and pitch for his team, but Meehan told him he would not pitch for the Brooklyns for $500 and that he would stick to the Pastimes. and win the pennant, too" The reply of the Brooklyn admirers could not be heard, as they left the car about that time l The above story simply shows how re- ports emanate sometimes, all caused by the enthusiasm of the friends of each.

 This seasons schedule of classes in- cludes morning, afternoon and evening sessions. The daytime classes are for nOn-league members, and those of the evening are for league members. and special non-league students There will be two terms of sixteen lessons each, also individual instruction.
 The work aims to cultivate a healthy physique. 1t furnishes thorough and systematic education. The methods of training are adapted to the needs of the various classes. Exercises are ar ranged for hygienic development and
 
 different importance according to age, social condition and occupation of the pupil, they will enter into the makeup of the lesson varying in quantity and quality, according to the composition of the classes and the individual needs of the student. The variety of exer- cises offered should make the work beneficial and attractive
 In the adult classes cane fencing will be included, and basket ball intro- duced. Instruction in French foil fencing may be arranged for. There will be special classes on Monday af- ternoOn at 4:30 and on Tuesday morn- ing at 10 o'clock. Fencing classes are provided for Tuesday morning at II and in the afternoon at 3 o'clock. Also on Tuesday afternoon at 4 there will be class for juniors. Evening classes for specials and non-league members. and for league members, are arranged for on Monday and Tuesday at 7:45. Individual instruction in curative work and in foil fencing may be had on Tuesday morning from S:3O to 10. and on Tuesday afternoon from 2 to 2 o'clock. Additional classes may be ar- ranged for.
 The first two class sessions will be open to visitors. and registration for classes should be made immediately. SO that each student may begin work without losing a lesson Applications may be made at the Friendly league office, and further information be ob- falned from the league superintendent.

HAD A CHINESE NAME.
Archibald Was Called Archie and the Mongolian ThouEfnt It Was
 "Ah Chee."

Tn the household of a prominent Bos- tonian is Chinese servant who was brought east by the family. several years ago from California, where he had ingratiated. himself during a win ter sojourn at Pasadena
 Recently young man named Archi- bald has been visiting the family, and the Chinaman seemed to take a strange fancy to him. He is called Archie for short, and every time fhe name of Archie was mentioned the Mongolian would grin and beam at the guest with a pride that seemed little less than paternal. That it was at least frater- nal was disclosed one day, when he said: "Why for you have name alice samee like Chinaman ?" Archibald was rather taken back. What dc you mean a'' he asked. "Why, you name, 2 replied the Chinaman, according to the Philadelphia Record. "When they z=1xz== a1Ie4 uaaa | t k''==eiz'
