deep canOns and gulches. The district
thus presents an aggregate of many
hundreds of miles of perpendicular
cliffs, gray, yellow, orange and salmon
eoIored. The mesas are nearly all
very narrow. some being mere tongues
of rock separating comparatively wide
valleys.
In another almost inaccessible spot,
A. B. Craycraft, the Santa Fe photog-
rapher, whose work has done so much
to spread abroad a knowledge of the
wonders of PajaritO Park, recently
discovered two great stone idols
carved from the living rock, and still
forming an integral part of the cliff
to which they were attached. In still
another canon are the stone lions of
PotrerO de las Vacas," and in another
the Painted Cave. Most wonderful of
all. say certain aged Indians of the
pueblo of Santa Clara. is the Stone
Council Chamber" In a secret recess
in q deep canon they claim are twelve
| colossal stone figures ten of which
represent men sitting around a coun-
Gil fire. while the other two represent
squaws with papOOses on their backs.
That this stone Council Chamber"
! really exists no one familiar with the
traditions of Santa Clara Indians
doubts, but no living white man has
| ever seen it.
No less remarkable are the stone
tents of Otowi. in the canon of the
same name. These were originally
huge. solid, cOnical stone formations,
/ detached from the cliffs, although
/ standing near them. In all, there are
about fifty of them. In spiral arrange
ment, around the exterior, are deeply
| cut hand-and-fOOthOlds, making it
! comparatively easy to ascend TO the
J top, although some are fully forty
! feet high. In some of them, rooms
have been labOriously excavated. Ex-
| animation reveals the fact that some
of the stone tents used 10 be much
higher than they now are, and that
the elements have worn them down
until the higher rooms have been
wholly or partially destroyed Just
what was the purpose of these curl
Gus places is purely a matter of con-
lecture. Some suppose that they were
devoted to religious uses, or were the
dwelling places of the priests. Others
think they formed the abodes of the
chiefs and rulers. 1t is said that simi-
lar stone tents" exist in Thibet, but
nowhere else in the known world.
When the wonders of our own land
are better appreciated, the stone tents
of Owoti will be considered jusuica-

years. 1t is doubtful if white man
ever had such a wedding before; the
ceremony in the open air, before the
eseufa of the ancient Indian village;
the head men of the Seama standing
in solemn circle with hands uplifted in
blessing and grouped around them all
the men and women and children, clad
in gaudy blankets, the women in their
gayest shawls, and all against the
background of miles of rolling sand
dunes, under the bluest sky man
knows.
After they had stood together with
in the sacred circle before the estufa,
and after the head men of the village
had given Garfield the right to take
his bride away, the two were married
again by a Presbyterian minister In
the ordinary way.
Mr.. Garfield is the son Of William
w. Garfield, editor of the Utica IN.
" Observer, one of the staid old
newspapers of upstate New York. He
has achieved some reputation as an
artist and as a teacher of art, has
written at least one novel and has be-
come known as a student Of Indian
life. For a time he was an instructor
in art at the Carlisle Indian school
in Pennsylvania, and it was there that
he first saw Anna Gouytuey.

Digging Up the Secrets of a Peo-

in Houses Cut of
Rock,

Santa Fe, N M-Probably no more
important or interesting archaeological
investigation has ever been conducted
in American than that just begun in
what is known as the Pajarito Park
district OF New Mexico, about twenty
five miles west of Santa Fe, and not
more than five or six miles from
Buckman Station, on the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad. The work is in
charge of Prof Edgar L. Hewett, di-
rector of American archaeology in the
Archaeological Institute of America,
who is assisted by number OF en-
thusiastic students of archaeology
Three or four months will be spent
IN making explorations in this little
known region. The time in entirely
too short for an exhaustive examina-
ton, which must be the work OF years
but it is encouraging to see some in
dication that the common belief that
the Archaeological Institute of Ameri-
ca is interested N antiquities only pro-
yided that they are not American is
not entirely justified.
Pajarito Park is included in the
great Jemez National Forest - al
though equally interesting antiquities
belonging to the same group are also
found in the Santa Clara Indian Res
erVatiOn and in the private land grant
now controlled by the Ramon Land
and Lumber company. To Prof. Hew-
EFT belongs the credit for having the
ruins included, as far as possible, IN
the forest reserve, in order that they
might be preserved from the thought
less acts of vandalism that threatened
the utter destruction of everything of
an antiquarian value. The district is
bounded on the north by the Rio Cha
ma, on the east by the Rio Grande,
on the south by the Rio de los Frijoles
and on the west by the Jemez noun
tains. Much of it is heavily timbeTed,
while its scenic features are Of great
beauty and grandeur. The whole sur
face at one time was deeply covered
with volcanic tufa. Through this and
through the harder rock strata below
the intermittent streams that flow
down from the mountains have worn
