MANY KINDS OF SOUVENIRS
Several Lines Which Are Beautiful and
 inexpensive.

Among the very appropriate sou vrnirs which winter residents Of the city about to leave for their homes in the east and the north will find at Balke's Big Curio store are large numbers of orange wood novelties. The orange wood itself is a novelty in the east. but at the Big Curio store il has been made up into a lot of beautiful and useful articles.
 Also there are many novelties of cac- tus wood which perhaps would be more ot a curiosity than the orange wood. Another delightful souvenir is the pill lHv top. the like of which is not pro- cfrable in eastern stores. There are besides a great many beautiful novel, ties made of Arizona onyx. Any of these things would be delightful me meDto of Phoenix and all of them are inexpensive.
 It is not to be forgotten that ail these goods are being sacrificed in the cut price sale in which no attention is paid to profits. and in many instances. not 10 cost. The sole aim of the pro- prietor is to make room for next sea sons stock With all purchases double trading stamps are given away.

CURIOUS INDIANS.

An English explorer. Major P. II. Fawcett. has recently told the Royal Geographical society that it is prob
 able that there exists in south Amer ica q race Of white aborigines with red
 hair In dispatch from London he Is quoted as follows:
 Fl have met half a dozen men who declare positively they have caught glimpse ot such people.
 other statements have been made
 as to the existence of a similar race with blue eyes, They have name 'Morphegon. ar Bats meaning the people who travel to hunt by night
 ana hide during the day.
 T am told that in Paraguay there is
 q tribe so shy as to be quite beyond communication. while in another race
 the man and the women talked sepa rate languages.
 IL will hardly do to credit these sto- ries 10 the account of credulity. with out furtheh investigation. The interior Of Africa has brought it's surprises to
 the world. Why should not the interior of South America hold its secrets, too?
 Major tawcetts story reminds us that Dr. samuel l.. Mitchell. professor of natural history. in 1915 reported 10 the American Antiquarian society the find of d human body, in Kentucky. with reddish hair and rather uncer-
 tain complexion. He said in his com munication:
 T offer you some observation on q | curious peace of American antiquity. now in New York. It is human body l found in one of the limestones caverns | of Kentucky. IL is q perfect exsicca- 1 ton: all the fluids are dried up. The skin. bones. and other firm parts arc | in q state of entire preservation" After having described the place ! where the find was made, the several
 etc, he continues:
 1 The body is in q squatting posture. | with the right arm reclining forward.
 and it's hand 'encircling the right leg. 1 The left arm hangs down by it's side. ! The individual was d male, supposed
 tn be not more than fourteen at his l death. There is a deep and extensive ! fracture of the skull near the occiput. | which probably killed him. The skin has sustained but little injury, and +
 of a dusky color, but the natural hue | cannot be decided with exactness from
 it's present appearance. The scalp. with | small exceptions. is covered with red
 dish hair. The teeth are white and sound The hands and feet. in their shriVeled state, are slender and deli cate"
 Dr. Mitchell expressed the opinion that the body found was the remains 1 of an individual belongine to that generation of men which preceded the Indians 0f the preesnt day. Possibly explorations in South America might
 bring forth some light upon that gen eration of men, of which scientists yet know so little.

 The reports received by letter by Recorder Thomas another stockholder. during the past week. have been al most too good to be true but the spec imens and report brought back by MT Barnett seem to make them look like the real thing.

IT is some 20 feet between the shoots. through the hill.

Cuba is the name by which the Is

villages or cities was called by them
Cubanacan. and II Is reported that
from the similarity OF sounds Column
bus, still supposlng himself TO he ON
the coast OF Asia. imagined that this
must be city OF Kublai Khan. the
Tartar sovereign celebrated by Marco
Polo. The survival OF the original
name for Cuba Is remarkable in
stance OF persistence. as the island has
been baptized aud rebaptizcd many
times since its European discovery
Columbus first called II Juann in honor

1t was called I'm his memory Fernan-

changed 70 Santiago, after ST. James,
the patron saint Of Spain. Still later
IL was named Ave Maria, in honor of
the Virgin Mary. But none OF these
names held, and the Indian name is
still preserved.

from ships they had sunk, with com

Also In the morning. when you leave
