CHAPTER XIV.

Ethel was certainly very courageous
She was also strong, young and healthy,
and had an unusual amount of self-pride,
all of which kept her from giving way
under the load of grief that came upon
her after Jacks faithless behavior. But
she felt her sorrow none the less deeply,
and hid it from her fathers sight.
Captain Polling had been away nearly
n week on a visit to an old friend, and
Ethel was feeling the daily monotony of
her life very irksome as she once more
set about making her fathers coffee.
There were letters on the table, but
she did not feel particularly curious
shout them. As she placed the coffee pot
on the table the writing on the envelope
next to her own plate caught her eyes.
The blood rushed to her face, and, with
nervous haste she picked up the envelope
apd opened it She read the invitation

The walls OF the pyramid are sculp-
tured In relief with what are believed
to be hieroglyphic inscriptions of his
toric interest. Notwithstanding tneir
age and the destructive effect of the
weather and vegetation. serpents and
warriors. rabbits, birds and wolves
can be plainly distinguished in the
intricate design. There is one war
rior whose costume. posture. arms
and dress might almost have been cop
led from the sculptured temples OF
Egypt. Around the base of the pyra-
mid and on the upper part are many
stones scattered in confusion, and
among them has been discovered
lately what is believed TO be the sac
rifical stone-the Tcchcatl--wnere the
blood of the victim once flowed to the
glory and honor of the ancient die
ties.
These ruins have served as a quar-
ry from which building material was
extracted to he used in the construc-
tion OF the farm houses OF the IA
cienda of Miacatlan.
Lately. on one of the nearby hills
the well known archaeologist, Don
Antonio PenaGel. discovered an cpl
graphic stone, whose hieroglyphics
may serve as a key to unlock the Sc.
cret OF the carvings on the walls.

COUNCIL MEETING.
O.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
The city council, complying with
the formula arranged for the conduct
OF municipalities of Durango's class,
met yesterday evening and held an
interesting and comprehensive ses-
sion. 1t was- noteworthy meeting
for having all the members present.
There were Mayor Mcconnell, Alder
men Berndt, Logan. Dobbins, Casey,
Hanno, Balster and Rivers, and just
as they were about to proceed to bus
mess who should appear but Alder
man West, who had formerly been
conspicuous for his absence. Mr.
West had on mis- rubber boots and
was slightly sunburned. wearing the
same handkerchief about his neck
which he had worn but yesterday on
the COW range. The balance OF the
council always says How d'yedo, Mr.
West" when ne comes in and then
appear to move restlessly about. Mr.
West has been unableio attend many
of the meetings. but when he does
come he is always poking somebody
in the ribs about the fire ordinance.
The annual reports were read and
the Herald will ask Clerk Russell for
copies of these for publication from
time to time. TO keep the linotype
operator busy. He likes to handle
figures.
The discussion of an old fire horse
~ hA 10 Of
of age and inlirmity. was pathetic.
The old fellow had been a faithful
servant but was "all in" and the
council was undecided as to whether
they should send him out on the
grass or what to do. 1t was finally
decided that the proper committee
should go in the market to buy a
team. Billy Likes was doctoring the
old horse. Mayor Mcconnell said he
thought the committee would be able
to decide whether the city should
buy one or two horses or none at all
Mr.. Baudino's building permit was
mentioned and the council proceeded
in the ordinary routine of business.
City Engineer w. II. Wigglesworth
presented the first bridge estimate,
which had been offered for several
weeks and made very favorable re-
port regarding the progress of the
work.
Mayor Sadler was present to say
that Animas City would not expert
ence water famine since the AM
mas had hpplln n "A T.,
would he all right for Durango to de,
fer consideration of the historic sub
urb's application to purchase Florida
water at given price per gallon and
the Durango council concurred.
Mayor Mcdonnell introduced two
ordinances in blank, one OF which
he said Attorney f. C. Perkins had
given specific clause regarding The
controller restraint of saloons in the
city, touching particularly on Sunday
and midnight closing. The other was
aimed at the pool rooms Alderman
Rivers moved TO proceed to the regu
lar order of business, when Mayor
Mcconnell urged that the ordinances
were In order, and some time was
spent in reading and discussing the
newly proposed laws.
Mayor Mcconnell distinguished the
session by saying that ne believed in
making all obey the ordinances with
ont favor or discrimination: that the
better element of saloons were oh.
serving the laws and felt that all
others should comply.
me council, in the matter Of ap.
pointments, reappointed all the old
employees. save on the police depart
ments. which was probably deferred
on account of the lateness of the
hour.
