GREAT STONE WHEEL.
Indian Shrine Discovered by Prospeo.
tors In Wyoming Mountains.


One of the most remarkable monu.
ments left by a prehistoric people has
just been discovered in the Big Horn
Mountains, near this place, by mining
prospectors The monument, which
Is known as the Medicine Wheel" is
looked upon by the Indians as sacred
and is held in the utmost awe and
veneration by all the tribes Of the
central mountainous country.
The Medicine Wheel is a giant
stone wheel built on the fat top of
Medicine Mountain. 1t is laid out
symmetrically and is built Of great
granite boulders so placed as to form
a perfect wheel with spokes $50 feet
long, AT the centre is a great rocky
hub.
For years the whites have known
that somewhere on Medicine Noun
tain the Indians had sacred altar or
monument of some kind, but so zeal
ously has the subject been guarded
that no white man ever knew the char
scter or the location Of the Indians
holy place. The red men always re-
fused to talk to the whites on the
subject and it was only by chance that
the prospectors came upon the great
stone wheel and made a snapshot pic
ture of the object.
The identity of the builders of the
Medicine Wheel" is as unknown to
the Indians as to the whites. The
only tradition possessed by the In
dams concerning the wheel is that it
was built by the gods themselves and
is to remain as a sacred object to the
end of the world. Medicine Mountain,
so named by the Indians for the rea-
son that il was to its rocky slopes
that the Indians went for the "medl-
cine" or charm which was TO protect
them through life, has long been
known among the Indians as the
home of the Great Spirit, and for
generations these Indians have camp.
