south America In 1000 B. c.

The greater the number of the sue
ceeding phases of civilization the more
eve must be the average length Of
each and thus resemble the general
length of human periods. 1t is to be
seen that the two central European
periods, those of Hallstadt and OF La
Tene, together embrace about a thou
sand years, an average of 500 for each.
The cultured periods of Egypt may be
even longer.
The development Of Peruvian civili-
zation. accepting on the average five
successive periods, would result in a
stratification Of cultures representing
between 1000 and 5000 years. About
the year 1000 B. c., at the time when
Solomon built his temple, the early
Americans in Peru reared their mighty
structures to the glory of a creator god.
Civilization in America would beyond
all doubt have worked itself up to a
high plane at some time and might
have accomplished alone a peculiar
but certainly brilliant development

Little Wood Used In Them, and They
Are Practically Fireproof.
There is a minimum of wood used
for house construction in the cities of
Mexico, and there is absolutely nothing
to burn except what furnishings the
houses may contain. The walls are
solidly built of stone and brick or in
the less costly structures of adobes,
which are thickly plastered inside and
out with mortar OF stucco. The floors
are Of brick, stone or tiles, while the
roofs are of brick laid in mortar or in,
some cities of semicylindrical clay
tiles. Many roofs r arched with
brick laid flat, not on edge, and it is
marvellous how slight a curve some of
these arches have. Yet they support
heavy weights and have lasted through
centuries.
Flat roofs are supported by 6 by 6

early in the day. John Billheimer, who halls
to see that suitable melons were procured
Billheimer knew that one of his neighbors
in Daviess county had just what the Gov
ernor wanted. Accordingly fifteen large lus-
cious melons were shipped in five barrels
They were put on ice until yesterday at
o'clock. Two long tables were arranged
down stairs, and at the appointed time a
line of men, each carrying a melon, made
its appearance.
A halt was made because none of the tax
commissioners was present Billheimer ap-
pointed himself a committee of one TO in
trude on the members of the board and ask
them to attend the feast Governor Durbin
led the crowd to the cellar. No ceremony
was displayed unless 1t was the testing of
the first melon by Governor Durbin. who
cut deeply into one and sampled it. The
way in which he closed his eyes and smiled
was plain enough for the remainder of the
party To know that Billheimer's stories re-
gardng the quality of the melons had not
been exaggerations.
Besides the Governor and other members
of the Tax Board there were a number of
invited guests, among them being Jerry
Matthews. Senator Fairbanks's private sec
