Western Union
 Increases Rates

Miss Nel,a Yaple, local manager O the Western Unicn Telegraph com pany has been notified of 10 cen, increase in the rates for night mes. sages, effective after April l.
 Messages for whicn the charge was 40 cents will hereafter cost 50 cents and 30-c cent messages will be raised to 40 cents.
 The Postal Telegraph company has also issued similar order.
 Miss Yaple states that she has been informed that there will be no raise on the day messages.
 The cause Of the sudden raise which has fsr-reaching effect, has not been made public. When the day rate on A message is 50 cents the night rate g 10 cents and this ratio will probably prevail in all cases.
 The new increase does not only ef- feet this city, but other cities in the territory as well. Denver, Kansas City and St. Louis, and states in the middle west will feel the effect of the increase in rates.

Ancient Ruins
 In Arizona

h the heart of the southwest, in a region formerly forsak-n by whites and little freguented by Indians, lie the traces o. an ancient city buried by desert sands. Mans tumbled walls smoothed lat with the burning plain are marked. grave-like, by the still remnants of building. To the Gils valley, Ar zons, this lone ruin, christened the Casa Grande by the Spauisrds of the territory, has since October been the object of investigs- tions, under il special appropriation of congress, by an archaeological expedi- tion of the Smithsonian Institute.
 The Casa Grande is IF miles from the Santa Fe system of railroads and Is miles from the Southern Pacific an easy trip across the desert from Florence, AE:z. It has furnished ma terial for much surmises and recently. for actual scientific inves. 'gation- surmise dating back to the goldseek- ing invasion of Coronado in l5i0. The ruin has been brough: three l times to the attention of our national body. II lies upon puh ic lands ant is therefore under national control, Early, however, it paid the price of many valuable relics by suffering from the too devoted attention of souvenir hunters.
 About l. years ago congress recog- nized its importance by appropriating s2000 for its repair and preservation following upon private investigation: which at the time aroused much in. ,erest. Victor Mindeletf, archseolo- gist, was sent to supervise the con struction of a guard against the veal of the elements, and custodian wa, appointed to protect 1t against too curious sightseers. Last year Cass Grande again brought an appropri ation-this time 5000; and for ,h, fiscal year ending June 30, 1907. lik' sum has been granted.
 Al. the Arizona inv stigations 0 the Smithsonian institution are beins conducted with scientific caution Much of the labor is performed b, Indians who are perhaps the decen- dants of the very men whose home they are unearthing. Such relics a have been discover, will be careiull, shipped to the National Museum 10 b compared by experts with other speci mems of Indian work. Dr Fewke has reserved his own conclusions un tll the completion Of the excavations when whatever definite theories h. may have established will be embodied in complete report on the CssI Grsnde and its vicinity.
