in their hands.

An Unknown Race.

In the beginning the Hohokam
dwelt in the land. They were
the first Americans-before the
pilgrim fathers, before the Span
lards, before the Indians. They
were the unknown people who
lived in the United States so
long ago that their name is utter
ly lost In the southwest old
tribes of Indians like the Zunis
and Navajos know nothing of
them save by vaguest tradition.
The Pimas and Papagos of south
ern Arizona, who occupy part of
the land that once was theirs,
know that another race possess
ed the country long ago. More
they cannot tell. They and their
fathers for hundreds of years
have seen what we see-the
scanty remnants of ancient vii.

villages they have no name ex-
cept the Hohokam-that is, the
unknown"
The modern archaeological de-
scribes the implements and pot
terry of the Hohokam. He cannot
do much more, for their houses
are laid low. Except in a few
places, such as the ruins of Casa
Grande, near the ella river, the
very walls have vanished. Casa
Grande itself may be the work of
a people later than the main
body of the Hobokam. We can
never know the whole story. Yet
little by little we may learn its
chief facts. Arizona and the ad-
jacent regions are full of ruins
unknown to scientists and even
to the people who live within a
mile of them. They are so near.
ly obliterated that there seems
at first sight little to repay study.
Archaeology begins the task of
reconstructing the past. Geo.
graphy must finish it. Modern
geography enables US to deter
mine the mode of life which
must prevail, especially among
primitive peoples, under given
conditions of physical environ
ment. If we can correctly pic
ture the geological environment
of the Hohokam we may learn
much of the history of our earIi-
est fellow countrymeD.

How Rain is Formed.

The behavior of clouds and the
formation of rain have been con-
sidered in all ages one natures
great mysteries. And the one
notable experiment of the Scotch
chemist, Aitken, has thrown
more light upon the subject per-
haps than all others combined.
1t goes to show that the presence
of PARTICLES of dust in the air is
essential to the formation of
raindrops. He carefully filtered
all the dust out of a volume of air
by passing it through plugs of
wool. Taking glass globe filled
with ordinary air, he admitted a
little steam into vessels. A
cloud formed Immediately in the
globe containing the common air,
while no cloud was produced in
the other. The water vapour
condensed upon the invisible
dust. PARTICLES in the vessel of
ordinary air and remained sus-
pended in the form of a cloud.
The dust PARTICLES was an essen.
tial nucleus, without which the
vapor condensed on the walls of
the vessel. Wkhout such par,
ticles in our atmosphere we
should have no rain, but the walls
of our houses and other objects
would be wet. BY varying the
amount of dust in the confined
air Aitken could at pleasure pro-
duce London fog, a Scotch mist
or shower of rain. The new
chemistry holds that air PARTICLES,
when electrified in certain man
ner, will also furnish the desired
nuclei for drops of rain.

Thirty Years in Steel Cage.

George Odetr, for thirty years
bereft of reason aud locked in q
steel cage in the garrett of his
mothers home, near Waukegan,
ILL.,, will be taken to the insane
asylum at Elgin.
The formality of a test of his
sanity was gone through by
an examining board which sat
in the garrett while Odett, not
knowing the cause of the gather.
ing, shrieked at them and ratified
the bars of his cage.
The commitment to the asylum
followed the death of Odett's
mother, at the age of 90 years.
For thirty years, since she OBJ
tanned her sons release from an
asylum after short incarcera-
tion, she has remained with him,
cut off from the world, seldom
leaving the garrett, preparing his
food and at times the only person
to zee him for months.
A shock from toy electric
battery at a county fair in
Waukegan thirty years ago rob-
bed young Odett of his reason,
and he was sent to an asylum
When Mrs. Odett learned that
her son, refusing food, was dying
of starvation, she obtained his
release on a promise to guard
him, and the insane man was
returned to her home.
Since that time he has been
violent aud none has dared ap-
proach him. Only his mother
remained night and day on the
other side of the bars of which
his cage was made, fed him, at
tempted to comfort him and
sought to tighten the days.
The test was made today at he
request of Ambrose Odett, a
brother of the insane man. The
prisoner was nude during the
hearing. His beard, blood stain.
ed and matted, hung nearly to
his knees and his face and body
bore marks of frequent struggles
against the bars of his cell.
