A HUNGARIAN PompeII.

A dispatch from Budapest an
nounces that a Hungarian archaeolO-
gist, M. Duday in certain excavations
which he was experimenting near
2sibo, in Pennsylvania, has discovered
the site of the ancient Roman city OK
Porolissum, and is enabled to recon-
struct the town. The houses have re-
sisted the ravages of time, being sub
stantially built of brick and adjoining
one another. The rooms are very
small, but regular in form. M. Duday
has also come upon the ancient thea
ter, Of great dimensions, which should
give some idea Of the size of the town.
The archaeologist considers that Poro-
lissum had a population of 10000.

Banks Bad Break.

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 20.-Be-
tween 900 and 400 people gathered
in front Of the CRY Savings Bank
yesterday, but made no demonstra-
ton. This bank closed its doors
Saturday, and they were not open
today.

assignee, is enjoined from acting in
that capacity. 1t is shown that the
banks Indebtedness is over 100000,
that the institution ishopelessly insol-
vent, and that many eff its notes list
ed as assets are wholly worthless.

G. A. 3. In Foreian lands.

The first Grand Army post in Europe
has lately been organized at Oldham,
in Lancashire, England, where twenty
former Union soldiers reside. Although
it is the first European post, It is not
the first outside the limits Of the Unit
ed States, as there are already four in
Canada, one in Peru and one in Homo
lulu. There are, according to the Unit
ed States pension commissioner, about
5000 pensioners residing in foreign

that the test of success in individual.
St. Louis has just been host to tens
of thousands; the rugs have hardly
been shaken out, the rose leaves
swept up and the furniture put back
into its place. The busy men who
have labored so hard to make the
feat a success want to know whether
they have succeeded. Statistics will
not tell them this. The impress of
the celebration of 100 years of
corporate life, with its triumphs
and achievements, must be made
upon the individual. Did st. Louis
make it?
In any large company there is
usually somewhere the man with the
gift of speech to say the word that
gives assurance that the lights have
not been lighted nor the board
spread in vain. St. Louis had him
last week, in the person of Mayor
Meacham, of Hopkinsville, KY. He
writes to the city's next friend-The
Republic-that "St. Louis is better
town than HopkinsviIle."
This is the high-water mark of
recognition, the farthest north of
praise. the summum bonum of APP
probation. While our friends the
Mayors were with us, Mayor Meach-
am was but one among many. Now
that they have departed we hear his
voice calling to us across the silent
ness. He is back in Hopkinsville.

once more walked about her walls

speak, with the voice of the laughter
of her daughters ringing in his ears
and the forms of her stalwart sons

An EMPRESS and Her Tea.

The late empress dowager of China
was a great epicure in regard to her
tea. To add to the flavor she used
curious flour mixture, equal parts Of
dried jasmine and honeysuckle. The
honey in the flowers sweetened the
tea ever SO slightly and the blooms
gave it pungent taste, which the
empress liked. The first leaves of the
great plantations in China are al
ways reserved for the imperial use.

First Reports Were Exaggerated.
Special to the New Mexican.
Albuquerque, n NJ, Sept. 1.-THE
report of the disaster at the Zuni dam
is greatly exaggerated although there
is yet some danger from water which
has found channel in the sand un-
der the lava crust out of which the
spillway is formed. The dam is only
slightly damaged at the south end,
where it connects with the spillway.
The Indian school and government
buildings are in danger as the rock
dixie is crumbling but Zuni village is
not damaged and there is very little
damage to farms There is no loss
of life. A telegram from Engineer H
F. Robinson indicates that the dan
ger is over. The breaking Of the
Bluewater dam appears to be more
serious as the valley is flooded, the
farmers were forced to fee and the
Santa Fe tracks are badly damaged

ALARMING REPORTS
ABOUT HARTMAN,

Arden, N. Y, Sept. 7-Alarming re
ports regarding the condition of Harri'
man have been revived following his
relapse of Sunday night. 1t is believ

sickness caused by sudden change OF
temperature and indiscretion in diet
in which the sick man, in a weakened
condition, was unable to throw off
DR.. Lyle, Harriman's private ply
sician calls the attack "acute indiges
ton" Last night he said his patient
was better,
1t was said today that although the
progress of Harriman's latest attack
has been arrested, his temperature re
manned high and he was exceedingly
weak. The best information is that
he is in bed and although confirmation
of the report has not yet been obtain
ed from the house, little doubt exists
here that there are other physicians
attending him besides DR.. Lyle. Tall

The greatest flood disasters in the
recent history of New Mexico occur
red Yesterday and almost simultane-
ouslv threatened the historic pueblo af
Zuni and the fertile Bluewater val
ley, the former in Mckinley county
and the latter in Valencia county
Fortunately, as far as ascertained,
there was no loss of life but the de,
struction of property will probably
reach very lage sum. Both disas
ters were caused by damage TO the
recently constructed dams, the one
at Bluewater having been constructed
by private capital and the one near
Zuni known as the Black Rock dam
by the U. S. government for the In
dians, having been started under the
supervision of the late ]. H. Harper
and completed under General H. F.
Robinson. The latter was to have
reclaimed about 5000 acres for the
Zuni Indians while the Bluewater
dam had under it a fiourishing settle
ment. Says a dispatch to the Albu,
querque Morning Journal from Gallup
dated yesterday:
"The Bluewater dam, one of the
largest and most costly dams in the
United States, located in the Zuni
mountains ten miles west Of Blue
water, gave way shortly after nine
O'Clock this morning, releasing mil
lions of gallons of water which rush

animals, and washing away over q
