PREHISTORIC
CUARTALES
Buildings of Picuris Pueblo
Which Antedate the
Use Of Adobe.
STILL WELL s..
PRESERVED
Unique Method of Building En-
ployed at the Early Day.
Characteristic Features
OF the Pueblo.
From the New Mexican,

From the New Mexican.
The special interest ! n the Picuris
Pueblo eenters in the so-called Guar
teles and a few other buildings OF
equal antiquity, which are considered
by many to be the oldest existing
structures in New Mexico, IL not in
tue entire United States. The ira.
ditions of the Indians themselves as.
cribed to these an extraordinary age,
and are very clear in the assertion
that they were occupied before the
first coming Of the Spaniards. The
building known as the Cuarteles is
somewhat isolated from the remain
der OF the pueblo, being several hun
dred yards to the northeast of the
other houses, and is now much small
er in every way than 1t was within the
memory Of living men. 1t stands today
as a picturesque ruin, boldly outlined
on the sky, but showing the signs of
neglect and decay which f~oreshadow
its complete destruction, during the
next half century unless means are
adopted to secure its preservation.
Description of Building.
The building consists of only five
or six rooms on the ground floor, and
rises to a height of three stories. A
generation ago the present structure
was surrounded by other rooms which
have gradually fallen and now only
constitutes mounds of earth, but the
names of the exact residents Of which
are still well known by the older In
habitants. The building was then at
least two stories higher than IL is at
present, some Of the Indians insisting
that 1t reached even three more stor-
les in height, and must have rivaied
the great communal structures at
Taos In elevation if not in size. Forty
years ago some of these upper cham
bers were occupied by Mariana Leon,
an uncle Of the venerable sacristan,
the informant, and by Jose Antonio
Leon and his wife Isabel. Where now
the rooms are open to the west,
through the destruction of the outer
walls, Nolasco Mermeio. the ancestor
of a family still large and important
had his residence less than half a cen,
fury ago.
The most notable feature Of the Gu.
articles Is that the structure Is not
built Of adobe. II is believed that in
this respect the old houses Of Picuris
are unique and some Investigators
hold that they antedate all adobe
structures and are the best existing
representatives of a class OF buildings
which existed before the adobe came
into use.

Another Lynching.

Norfolk, Va, Oct. 24.-George w.
Blount, the colored proprietor of a fish
and oyster shop in the suburbs of
Berkeley, Va, a town of 10, 900 inhabi-
tants, Immediately across the Elizabeth
river from Norfolk, was taken out of the
little frame police station in Berkeley
by mob of fifty masked white men at
2:45 o'clock this morning, and lynched.
BlOunt, Saturday night, refused to per-
NIT Policeman HollOman to enter his
place to arrest another negro charged
with shooting. When Holloman per-
sisted in entering, Blount picked up
a lighted lamp, and struck the officer
in the face with it. The policeman was
seriously burned, aud cut and four teeth
were Knocked out A squad of police
men and citizens then seized Blount aud
the other negro and landed them in the
Berkeley police station, which is one
story wooden building. Feeling became
intense against Blount, and Sunday
night mob formed. While but two
officers were in charge this morning,
the mob attacked the Jail, and Selling
Blount, carried him a block away,
where he was beaten to death with some
blunt instrument, and then shot. The
mob dispersed, and the authorities say
they know none of the participants.
No arrests have been made. Bounts
body has been turned over to an under
taker for burial. There is great excite
ment and more trouble is feared
Troops were ordered out today and
are now assembling here to leave for
Berkeley at 1870 o'clock this evening
This is the result of an appeal to Col.
Higgins from Mayor Allen, of Berkeley,
who says an outbreak of negroes tonight
is imminent and that the lives of citi-
zens are in danger. Great excitement
prevails.

The McCue Case.

Another futile attempt was made Sat-
urday to complete the jury that is to try
in Charlottesville j. Samuel McCue.
charged with the murder OF his wife.
The yenire from Fredericksburg was ex-
hausted and two men are yet lacking.
City Sergeant Rogers left in the after
noon to summon another panel. His
destination was Warrenton.
The three selected Saturday from the
Fredericksburg panel of SO were Samuel
Beale, S. b. Quinn and Nelson Decker.
The great majority stated that they had
formed an opinion and could not give IA
fair trial.
While the prisoner looked serious
enough during the routine questioning
by Judge Morris, there was no incident
which escaped him. and he missed no
opportunity to join in the laugh as
heartily as the most Indifferent hanger
on at the trial.
When one Of the fredericksburg
panel, despite the warning of the judge,
insisted upon saying that he believed the
prisoner guilty and that he ought to be
hung, the accused laughed with the
others but there was a clearly defined
shadow of cynicism back OF the high
lights of mirth. And again, when j.
W. Allison, jr., said he was INTERESTED
in the female side of the CASE" the,
prisoner turned his glance in the direc-
ton of the ladies' gallery and laughed
heartily.
The resul. of exhausting three panels,
aggregating lS9 men, has been to secure
IA yeniremen and to cost the State little
short of 81, 900.

The Democrats Encouraged,

New York, Oct. 24.-The inspiring
demonstration that was an incident Of
ex President Cleveland's Carnegie Hall
address Friday night, coupled with the
effective work in the West of William j.
Bryan, have greatly encouraged the dem
ocratic campaign managers, and today
they are more confident of victory than
at any time since Parker aud Davis were
nominated at st Louis The strong
speeches being made by Judge Parker
are also declared to be having effect and
regret at the refusal of the candidate to
make a tour of the country is deplored.
1t is felt by those who know Judge
Parker that bis charming personality
and his ability to impress those who
meet him with the full sense of his sin
certy and strength of character, would
have made many thousands Of votes had
the people been permitted to see and
hear him. The eulogy passed upon him
by ex-President Cleveland and the strong
pleas of Bryan are, however, believed to
have done much to interest voters in the
man who heads the democratic ticket,
and at national headquarters reports OF
the most favorable character are con-
stantly being received.
A statement was given out yesterday
by the der Ncratic national committee
after consultation between Thomas
Taggart, chairman; William F. Sheehan,
chairman of the executive committee,
and De Lancey Nicoll, vice chairman
for the East. 1t says among other
things "Our canvass shows that we
shall certainly carry, by good majorites,
the States of New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware, West
Virginia and Indiana, and that in addi-
ton to these electoral votes, we shall have
the majority if not all, of the electoral
votes of the Rocky Mountain States. 1t
is impossible at this juncture to predict
The outcome in Wisconsin. Illinois
must aIso be classed in the doubtful
column, for, although at this moment
our canvass there is imperfect, it is sutfi-
GENTLY advanced TO indicate an unmis-
taxable republican detection"

Mr.. Douglas, the democratic candidate
for governor of Massachusetts, addressed
himself particularly to "the high cost of
living and the heavy burden that it puts
upon our workers, clerks and professional
men and women" This cost he justly
laid to the Dingley tariff law. But Sec
rotary Shaw, who is one Of the mouth
pieces Of the President, recently ex-
pressed the hope of being delivered
