of today in attempting to solve the archie
illogical and chronological mysteries Of
Mexico is the preparation of a language
map of the republic. It is said that
there are nearly seventy Indian dialects
in the republic. and that these dialects
are spoken by practically the same peo-
pie who spoke them in the days of the
conquest. It Is believed that with such
map 1t will be possible for the student
OF anthropology to get a picture Of Mex
leo which will be of great assistance in
Gus tides Of immigration swept into Mex
leo and the sources from which these
various tides originated. There are abun-
dant evidences of African and Chinese
influences in early Mexican history, and
1t Is the hope Of the anthropologists. the
ethnologists and the Psychologists that
the next quarter of a century may make
clear many Of the mysteries Of the past.

President Diaz Administers Oath to
Four Members.

MEXICO CITY, March 20.-The re-
port that President. Diaz will resign Is
regarded as not wholly without foun-
dation, though the date Of such action
is contingent upon the re-establish-
ment of peace.
Semi officially 1t is stated that
President Diaz has no intention of
going abroad. as has been reported.
while the present state of instruction
continues: but. peace again establish
ed. the same authority said that 1t was
not improbable that Gen. Diax would
seek retirement.

to heaven. and by means Of its press
created the impression that the United
States was about to invade Mexico.
''All this Is with the deliberate idea of
crushing the revolution and remaining In
power, The anti-American sentiment Is
entirely artificial, manufactured by the
government of Diaz. The sentiment that
really exists is the sentiment against the
government of Diaz and the SYSTEM
whose fall is indispensable for the re-
establishment of peace and of justice and
liberty for Mexicans and foreigners with
in the confines Of the republic"

are thought by many to be the oldest in
the new world. yet the design and proper
do credit to the best work Of the present
generation. There is a house of the
dwarf, one Of the pigeon. one of the tur-
ties and one of the governor. For the
most part the ruins of Mexico are in in
accessible places. and very few Ameri-
cans get to any of them except those at
Militia, which are not far from the birth
place of Porfrio Diaz, president of the
republic.
In this modern era Of enlightened in
dustralism one frequently sees charts

large circle representing the president.
Then there are circles representing those
who are under him and who directly COM
municate with him. Another series Of
circles shows the relation of those who
report to some one else, who in turn re-
port to the president BY such a system
the exact relationship of every official to
every other official in such a gigantic or
sion may be shown. Mexico made use of
this method of illustrating the plan OF
government of an Indian tribe centuries
before Cortez landed at Vera Cruz. There
Is on exhibition in the palace of Presi-
dent Diaz a chart showing the organiza-
tion of the government of the Montezu-
mas before Cortez lusted for their gold.
The INTERPRETATION existing between every
official and the other officials of the gov
eminent is shown as accurately as 1t can
be shown at the present time.
In the pursuit of archaeological and eth
biological research in Mexico the learned
men who go there for that purpose have
very amusing and sometimes very excit-
ing experiences. In studying the racial
characteristics of the various Indian
| tribes of Mexico. Prof. Starr has had oc-
casion to make minute measurements and
plaster casts of about one hundred men
and some twenty-five women The wom-
en- usually object seriously to the proc
ess. and 1t is necessary for the jefe
politico to arrest them and bring them to
the city hall for the purpose. They must
first be creased. and then plaster OF
paris put over their bodies and allowed
to dry. Oftentimes the victims of the
operation will not hold still and the cast
is broken before it becomes thoroughly
hardened. In several instances the In
dams whom Prof. Starr was using to OBJ
tain the cast have jumped out of a win
dow and run away with a half-dried cast
on the upper part Of their bodies. He
usually succeeds, however. in gaining the
good will Of the people.
One OF the most important undertakings
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1911-03-29

of the Mexican temple 10000 captives per-
ished on this one stone. The prisoners
were drawn from all quarters Of the cap
ital and were arranged in files forming
a procession nearly two miles long In
ordinary years the number of victims
slaughtered amounted to 10000. 1t was
customary to preserve the skulls OF those
sacrificed IL buildings provided for that
purpose. and in a single one of these
edifices compatriOts of Cortez counted
no less than 136. 0OO human skulls Men,
women and children were sacrificed, par
tfcularly in seasons Of drought. at the
festival of the Unsuitable god of rain.
As the children were borne along in open
litters dressed in festal robes, they
moved the hardest hearts to pity. though
their cries were drowned in the wild chant
of the priests. Parents would sell their
own children for the sacrifice, thinking
thus to appease the wrath of the gods
of poverty.

In making a sacrifice, the prisoner was

held 1t to the sun. and then cast 1t at
the feet Of the diety to whom the temple
was devoted. When the body Of a cap
tive was sacrificed, it was delivered to
the warrior who had taken him in battle
and was served up as a religious feast for
his friends 1t Is said that nowhere else
in the history Of the entire world have
human sacrifices been practiced on a
scale comparable with those in Mexico.
Another stone OF absorbing interest is
known as the calendar stone. 1t is
twenty-five feet in diameter. three feet
thick. and weighs twenty-four tons. On
Its face there appear hundreds of cary
ings, each OF which serves an important
purpose in the calculation of time. With
this stone the Aztec priests were able to
calculate exactly the astronomical year.
Prescott declares that he cannot con-
template the astronomical science OF the
Mexicans without establishment. That
they should have been able accurately to
adjust their festivals by the movements
Of the heavenly bodies. to fix the true
length OF the tropical year with a pre-
cision unknown to the great philosophers
Of antiquity, Is most surprising. From
whence came their curious erudition?
