Sunday Excursions
Abandoned by Roads

Low rate Sunday excursions are things
OF the past. so far as the Omaha roads
are concerned This is the edict that has
gone forth and during the summer none
% these excursions win be run from
Omaha or from other points on the sys-
tenn.
The Burlington discountenanoed and
frowned upon the Sunday excursions
over the Nebraska and western lines
some years ago. General Manager Hold
rege has always opposed them and conse-
auentiy they have not been run for years.
other roads have permitted them and
have run them into the state and into
Iowa. But there win be no more OF them.
The roads centering at Chicago and st
Louis placed the ban upon Sunday ex-
curslona several weeks ago and now the
Omaha roads nave followed sui,
Railroad managers contend there IL
money in Sunday excursions. but that the
precedent set Is n bad one. Excurdonists
leave the starting point sober. but upon
their return. a large number OF them
came hack hilarious Another reason for
the abandonment. say railroad managers.
Is that the present idea OF good rail-
roadlng Is to give employees as much time
for rest and recreation as possible. A

"Yes, as a result of hard study and patient and persistent investi- gation, l am convinced that an cient Mexico was in communication with the east, and that ample evi- dence is at hand to dispel all doubt upon this important subject.
 "The extreme probability of an Asiatic origin of the civilization of ancient Mexico has found many advocates among writers upon the subject. In support of this theory, they call attention to the fact that Asia and America approach within less than 50 miles of each other, making communication a no very difficult matter. Various and striking analogies are readily dis covered in the Cosmogonal tradi- tons and religious usages, the Aztec system of cycles at the termi. nation of which the earth was tc De destroyed and restored being the same as held by the peoples ot eastern countries.

 We'll Known Archseoiogist.

This week Nogales and vicinity have been visited by MT. w. k. Barnes, of Tucson. the genial and good natured commercial agent for the Southern Pacific. Like many more business men in this work-a- dav world, Mir. Barnes finds time to devote to the sciences, and has devoted himself particularly to the study of Archaeology, in which he has made for him. self a name of no inconsider- able merit. He is gentleman of scholarly tastes and finished edu- cation, in addition to which ad- vantages he has lived in the Far East and visited all those countries of the Orient that were the seats of the great civilizations of antiquity, and he has delved amid the ruins of the once magnificent cities the scattered wrecks of which fill the soul with awe and the mind with admiration.
 When in the course of his ex- periences MT. Barnes located in Mexico, to fill there a position similar to that he holds now in Arizona, the ruins of the departed cities of the native races attracted his attention in a very natural manner, and he devoted his leis- ure to investigation and study oI the monuments of a vanished civilization, the results of which he intends presenting to the world in the near future, as hi: own contribution to the science he has found so fascinating. And ht is free to state that his work vii be devoted to the evidences he has accumulated confrmatory of tn, theory that the Aztec civilization had it's origin in the Orient. II an interview on that subject MT Barnes, said:
 "The theory of an Asiatic origin for the civilization of ancient Mex ico is not by any means new 0 original. However, 1 have applied myself to the work of solving th' problem and have secured ad ditional evidence in favor of tin Asiatic theory, and, furthermore that the tincture of Christianit, discernible in some of the rite and ceremonies of the religions 0 the Toltecs and Aztecs also cam from China.
