The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-10-25

Numbers of men owe their lives to the
providence Of race which has passed
away and been forgotten. Neither history
nor tradition. tells aught of it, and it Is
known only by a few OF its work which
survive.
This forgotten raeAE WAS the desert
jewellers Of a prehistoric period Their
home was in the great desert region OF
Eastern California, which is really one
tsnbroken desert, although it has been
divided by the geographer into two,
known as the Mojave desert and the Col
orado desert.
In these deserts are found several wa
ter holes known as Indian wells They
have been walled in to protect the wa
ter from the encroaching sands of the
desert, which otherwise would, ages ago,
have buried the water many feet deep,
and the wells would nave been lost
The walls are built with skill and per-
feet knowledge of the action of the
winds which sweep the plains. They are
SO arranged and constructed as effectually
to protect the precious water from the
drifting sand, and they have withstood
the elements and warded off the sands
for more than three centuries since white
men began to traverse those desert
wastes, and it is impossible to state how
many centuries previous to that time.
The walls guard three sides of the
well, the fourth side being graded and
leading gradually down to the water.
Some of the wells are deep in the earth.

for convenience of the human visitors.
The known instances in which these
wells have proved life savers are many.

mickey Finn"

When Miss Kate Coyle plf fyed at
the Third Avenue theatre last spring
in Mickey Finn" which comes to the
Brooks next Saturday night, an inter-
viewer for the Journal called upon her
in her dressing room and asked for
some interesting data concerning her
career Miss Coyle was at loss to
know what to say. But the inter-
viewer was persistent and before
long drew her into an animated dis
cussion relative to new rule that
had just been promulgated regarding
the chorus girls employed at the
Casino theatre. This rule, be it said,
related to the attentions which the
Casino were alleged to have received
from the numerous stage door chap
pies, and forbade all further relations
between them. Miss Coyle defended
the ohappies with considerable
warmth
why. do you know" she said,
these young men are a most agree
able lot and a boon to the poor
chorus girl who perhaps has neither
home nor friends in the city in which
she is playing. These young men are
for the most part from good families.

lit in ways dear to the heart Of the
over-worked and under-paid young
women Of the stage And furthermore,
they know how 20 behave themselves.

Much to Miss Coyle's surprise and
dismay this interview embellished in
the most elaborate style appeared the
following morning in the Journal All
OF the young ladys friends chaffed her
about the matter but the real joke
developed that night when it was
found that the first six rows of the
Third Avenue theatre had been COM
pletely sold out to calIow youths who
carried bouquets, bon-bons and other
offerings for the fair Miss Coyle,
When she came upon the stage they
leered and winked at her in the most
audacious manner. After the show
party Of these chappies lined up at the
stage door
Miss Coyle fed through the front Of
the house as soon as she was dressed.
An hour later a policeman had to be
called to dispel the mob. They re-
fused to believe that Miss Coyle had
been false to them, and wrote numer-
GUS letters complaining Of the treat
ment they had received. It is need
less to say that the pretty engenue OF
the Mickey Finn" show has since
been extremely retieent in the pres.

ian civilization and belief, their culture,
learning and attainment; the world
wide empire of the shepherd kings or
of the "priestly Phariohs, their arts
lost, and not yet retained with all the
light and invention of this Goth century;
or as he stands beside the Father Nile
with the onrush of its mighty waters at
his feet, gazing at the ancient pyramids
testifying to the might and grandeur of
lustrous past whence forty centuries
look down upon us, he may we'll look
into the face of the stony ''SphynX and
wonder at the vicissitude portrayed.
Wealthy, learned and mighty, yet they
forgot and in their forgetfulness they
with their glory became one with Min
evan and Tyre
Or as one revels in the culture and
beauty of the ancient Greek; as Plato,
Socrates and Alexander fit before the
minds eye; as the sculptor, architect,
literature, soldier, priest and priestess
are dwelt upon; the wonder grows
apace, how such high empires could yet
merit the degradation and oblivion OF
the present. = = =

naughty conquering Roman, whose
armed legions and eagled banners held
civilized world in serfdom and whose
