MAN IN TERTIARY AGE.
Important Discovery Claimed by a Colorado Explorer in New
 Mexico.

Capt. Cecil A. Deane, of the Denver State Historical society, lately spent two weeks near Gallup, N. M., looking for a sandstone house partially GOV cred by bed of lava. This, says a Denver exchange, he failed to find, but he discovered other evidence of the presence of man in that locality dur ing the tertiary period. Near the given site of the elusive stone house they came upon the site of an old lake GOV cred with lava. Fifty feet above the original level of the vanished lake n cliff house was found. From this long untenanted abode the explorers took two bushels of calciDed corn, which, however, had not come into contact with any burning substance. It was of an altogether different variety from the corn that is and has been used by the Indians. Over tbe corn was layer of clipped stone reddened by intense heat from the lava bed of solidified de bris which lay above the burnt rock.
 In the house in which the corn was stored there were no weapons or uten- sils made of lava. On the other hand, such weapons and utensils were plenti- ful in the cliff dwelling at lower level. These facts have convinced Capt. Deape that the region was inhabited before and after the lava flow, which V of the later tertiary period.

WANTS INDIANS TO VOTE.
Captain Allison, of south Dakota, to Give Political Instruction
 to the Sioux.

During the next four months the Sioux Indians on the reservations in South Dakota are 10 receive their first instructions in civics if Capt. E. H. AL lison has his way about 1t. Capt. Al- lison is a member of the Uncpaphah tribe of Sioux Indians, having been adopted by that tribe in 1866, and he married the Sioux princess, Sinawin, daughter of Sacred Bear, who was for years head chief of the tribe.
 Capt. Allison, says special dis patch to the Chicago Inter Ocean, has lived among the Sioux Indians nearly all his life, and he speaks the Indian language as fluently as he speaks the English He was chief of the scouts for Gen. Sheridan for sev- eral years, and was chief scout and interpreter for Gen. Otis in the west ern country for 10 or IS years.
 It was he who, after the Custer massacre on the Little Big Horn, went to Canada to induce Sitting Bull and his band, who had fled thither, to re- turn to the United States; and he was in charge of the command which took Sitting Bull to Fort Randall.
 Few of the Sioux Indians have ever participated in presidential cam paign," said Capt. Allison recently. "In fact, but few of them can be said to have political opinion. It is my purpose to go out on all the reserva- tions west of the Missouri and hold meetings wherever a dozen or more Indians can be gathered together. This work will take three or four months. I shall give them elementary lessons in civic duties. and shall try to show them what it means for them to be citizens of the United States shall explain why it is necessary to have elections, polling places, and laws governing sneh things l shall have blank ballots and conduct mock elec- tions in order to give these new cit izens of ours a concrete idea of elec- fion methods"
