MOUND BUILDERS WHO MADE < BRICKS " 4ga,

Tn many respects Aztalan, in this state, is among the most remarkable prehistoric monuments in the north west. It is the only brick-walled town ship found in this country. It is on the bottom land of the Crayfish river, about two miles from Lake Mills. The inclosing walls of the townsite are about seven hundred feet on it's Hanks and fifteen hundred feet long. The river served to complete the inclosure of seventeen acres of land Within and without the inclusure there are, around, truncated and oblong mounds. Just be- yond the inclosing walls the land rises abruptly over twenty feet to the roll ing tablelands of the surrounding country. From the bank above a stone could be tossed into the town site, within the inelosure, which would seem to be a good reason why this in closure, which has been called a fort, could not have been intended for a de- fence against any human enefy. s~
 Along the brow of this higher land is row of more than thirteen round pyr- amidal founds ranging from three to Ul these mounds, or standing on the ta- bleland, an enemy could command the whole townsite. It has always. been conceded that Aztalan was not in- closed for purpose of defence. It has been supposed that it was walled for protection from wild animals, though the inclosure has never been high or abrupt enough since it's discovery to keep out the panther, wildcat, wolf, bear, moose or buffalo, which were the only dangerous animals of the woods hereabouts.
 The purpose of it's inhabitants in constructing this inclosure over a half mile long still remains a mystery. The fost remarkable art of Aztalan is it's brick walls and walks. In this it is singular and alone, the only example of brick laying among all the monu- mentS of the mound builders, These brick or bricklets are not rectangular and regular in form and size as are the modern brick. They are simply balls of~plastic clay welded by the hand into small blicklets of irregular form about the average size of a snowfall. The material used was the glacial yellowish red clay of the vicinity and the color of the bricks is red or light yellow. Un- der the glass scrapings appear like a handful of crystal and.-Baraboo, Wis, Special to the Minneapolis Jour. nal.

Abbey, represtative to the legislature from this town at the present session. Although at such ad- vanced age her mind regarding the past is remarkably good.
 Born in Waterford, Feb, 2O 1911, Lucy A. Lord, spent the early years of her life in Lyme, where as a girl she remembers watching for the great coach and four which carried General Lafayette through that town on his way to New London, and seeing the general himself. There are few living who witnessed this event.
 She married Julius Abbey May 14, 1884, and came to Chester to live about that time. Seven children were born to them, of whom three. are dead There are living ten grandchildren, and 16 great-grand-c children.

FRESHMEN CAPTURE FENCE.
Annual Interclass Contest on the Uni
 versity Campus.

versity Campus.
 Yales annual Washington's bfrthdav sophomore snow fisht tcd1k place yesterday. The freshmen cAptur- ed the sophomore fence, had a rough house in chapel and were well lectured by President Hadley. All the danaare done was to one window in the chapel and to sundry noses and faces of the members of the two classes.
 Before chapel tho sophomoras gather ed in front of Osborn hall bedecked in ancient top hats and each carrying a cane Here they opened the fracass with cheer for 19o7 The freshmen fn- side the college ground answered with a roar for 1908, and then the sopho started for chapel A few snowballs were thrown at the sophonores or their hats. but the real war did not begin until the interior of the chapel was reached
 Representatives of the two classes came here together and scramble oc- cured as the president was entering. A window was smashed in the melee and 1t was some time before the noise subsided. President Hadley then re+ buked the students for their unseafnly conduct and asked them to be careful when chapel was dismissed, not to car ry their sport too far. He said that on other occasions the fun got too boisterous and that the newspa per ac- counts of the celebration had been grossly exaggerated. He besotght them for the good name of the university to be careful
 Chapel over, the sophomores made dash for their fence, and the freshmen lined up near it. Some snowballs were thrown and then the cry went Frasai men, take that fence. And they went after it pell mell One onslaught that occasioned bloody noses was repulBed but the snowbank was higher than the fence, and the next rush made in concert cleaned the sophomores of the rails and the freshmen had won the day.
 The whole bunch was then photo eraphed. This years fight was not as lively as some. Last year more than 100 windows were smashed during the snowballing.

PRESSED BY CREDITORS.

William F. Dobbins, who managed the exposition recently at the Second regiment armory, is in a peck of trouble from creditors who are pressing hi mfor amounts ranging from $40 to $150. The money he derived from the exposition, which was $25 per week and 50 per cent. of the receipts has been garnisheed by Deputy Sheriff Halloran on behalf of Mrs. Ella Kendrick of Hartford, who alleges a board bill of $40. A garnishment was also put on the money by Hartford man named McMahon, who alleges Dobbins had en- gagged him to dive from an S0-foot lad der into a tank of water. Constable Peter McNerney has also placed at tachments upon the money.
 5 On February F Dobbins assigned all his interest in the exposition to Miss Mary Smith. His interest in that amounted to approximately s2,000, and Attorney Wilbur Hollway of Hartford. who represents Mrs. Kendrick, says that she will contest it.

 The, Prudential Insurance Company of America has added another highly successful year to it's brilliant record, an announcement which will cause satisfaction to it's millions of policy holders. The volume of paid-for insur- ance issued by The Prudential during 1904 was over s912,0090o0, an amount larger than ever before in the Com- pany's history. The assets were in- creased by $16,OOO,OOO, bringing the &C., cumulated assets up to over $SS, ,000,0 900, with liabilities of s75,000,0 900, leaving a surplus of $1S,OOO,00O. The annual State- ment of The Prudential, just published, analyses these assets and shows them to be of the highest grade!
 There was paid to policyholders dur ing 1904 the sum of over $13,000,0O The Company since it's organization has paid to policyholders over $92, ,00O,- GOO.
 A fact which strikes the casual reader, and one which goes far to ex- plain the support of the Company by the masses, is it's just and liberal me- thod of settling claims. Holders of old policies often receive more money than their policies entitle them to, no less than $5,000,O0O having been paid by the Company since it's formation in such voluntary concessions to holders of old policies.
 Write to the Home Office of the Com pany, Newark, N. J., for information concerning The Prudentials policies, which furnish guaranteed protection to the family as well as dividends to the policyholders.
