Everything about the Moundans is
a vigorous and handsome race and
very brave, but, contrary to the al

not been established, they never carry

Nevertheless, they appear 20 have

were probably driven southwark from
their original mountain home by some
conquering chief. "reminiscences of
this past may be seen in their semi
military architecture, which does not
resemble that of any of the neighbor-
ing peoples. At little distance one
of their villages looks like fortified
city.
The Moundan village, of which Lere
is an excellent type, is inclosed by a
series OF round towers connected by
walls from two to three meters in
height. Inside, parallel to the inclos-
Ing walls, is circle of cupolas, each
one pierced with single hole. These
are the granaries, the most important
buildings OF the town.
They ore erected on piles supported
on great stones, which places them
beyond the reach OF termites and ro-

only entrance is through the hole in
the vaulted roof. Between the outer
wall and the granaries are the homes
OF the people, while the residence Of
the chief faces the entrance.

Then and Now.

In the days Of old when knights
were bold and wore sheetiron shirts
and vests, they battled for the right
to hold fair maidens to their manly
breasts. They went TO war and rlsked
their lives to get the girls they wished
to win, and when they'd claimed them
as their wives supported them through
thick and thin, But in these days
when every man appears 70 think he
ought to try TO get as wealthy as he
can, and love is. something he can
buy, bisCWfHs apartnergthat he takes
In bisness for year or two: then one
or else the other breaks the ties and

The Bodies of Three Mid

ALLARtIDtNTIFIED
-Four Victims Of Disaster that Over
took a Battleship's Launch
Have Been Recovered.

Newport News, Va, June 1S.-Clad
In full naval uniforms and with faces
and hands fearfully mutilated the
bodies of Midshipmen P. H. Field, Of
Virginia, class 1906; w. II. Steven.
son, North Carolina, class 1906, and F.
P. Holcomb, Of Delaware, class 1907,
were found Monday in Chesapeake
Bay. The bodies, after being exam
ined and identified, were taken by the
naval tug Potomac to the naval hos.
pital at Portsmouth.
Monday morning a fisherman of
Ocean View discovered floating
body of a midshipman and turned It
over TO one of the launches which had
been securing the bay ever since
Capt. Mann, of the steamer Washing
ton, reported to Admiral Emory that
he had sighted a corpse off Thimble
Shoal lightship The body was
mangled and bruised and the face and
hands had nearly been eaten away oy
fish and crabs, but IL was identified
as that of Midshipmnn Holcomb by
the clothing and watch.
Several hours later the Potomac
picked up the bodies of Midshipmen
Stevenson and Field. These did not
seem to be bruised, but the faces and
hands were dlsfigured. The Potomac
steamed to Hampton Roads and went
alongside the battleship Ohio, to make
a report to Admiral Emory. Then
