i, In part the report follows:
Raws.-4The month Of Octbber has
come in and finds the sugar market in
somewhat different condition from
what had been anticipated by holders
of sugar generally. The critical per-
iod for scarcity of supplies between
the Cuba crop and the Unitci States
domestic crops has passed, and on Sep
TENDER 30 the stock Of sugar in the
Atlantic Ports Of the United States Is
3l9,3sl tons (246,3s2 tons OF which be.
longs TO rehners and 72,989 tons to i'm
.porters) The stock IN New Orleans
on September 20 is 1875 tons, and the
stock In the, Island Of Cuba Is 100000
tons. Altogether a supply stock of
45l,556 tons, against 3l4,s$4 tons oc-
tober ], 1913.
About 10000 tons of the remaining

A way out Of the present territorial

throughout Hawaii seems to have been
discovered by Governor Pinkham, tho
harbor commissioners and others inter

Since tie recent failure TO float in

all haybot, improvements would have TO
wait q long time before money would
be available for work 10 begin.
The, proposition now advanced is to
offer the contractors doing the work
payment In bonds Of the present issue
in lieu Of the real coin. Ii is said that
contractors generally would carry out
the work on this basis and take chances
themselves of obtaining the money by
disposing Of the bonds.

quires that bonds shall be sold only for

ing effect of the general picture. If
some vigorous plant breaks bounds and
extends beyong the edges of the bor-
dcr--for instance, trailer or vine,
or a dropping shrub--no one should
clip this back unless it is extending al
together too far Such seeming acci-
dents of growth should be counted so
as to eliminate all possible stiffness
and informality. For this reason they
should be deliberately planned for.
1t is good plan to arrange the plants
OF the back row so their sky line from
end to end of the border will make a
distinct silhouette against either some
background farther away or with the
sky
Care must be taken to arrange flow.
ering plants so that those which bios.
som about the same time may harmon.
ize or at least not contrast too vio-
lently. Still more important is sue
oession of bloom. Such shrubs as gol
den bell, daphne, spice bush and judas
tyee will provide brilliant colors al
heights of two to ten feet above the
ground. These may be supplemented
BY hardy bulbs, which, however, must
be planted the previous autumn
Among these grape hyacinth, crocus

'DELVE into THE PAST
and find Much CULTURE

Archeologically considered Guate-
mala and Mexico occupy identical
ground, and explorations conducted
with more lor less frequency have
brought to light ancient remains
which point to the similarity in con.
struction that was practiced among
the people of Yucatan and those of
northern Guatemala.
Probably no other field in America,
not barring Peru, with it's Inca
glory, furnishes greater incentive for
archaeological research than Guate-
mala. 1t is only within recent years
that historians and explorers have
joined hands in tracing, systemati-
Cally, the links between the Mayan
past and the present dwellers of
Central America.
The discoveries placed to the credit
Of investigators have been many and
fruitful. That the culture which ex.
listed many years before Columbus
reached America was of the highest
order, appears TO be reflected in the
ruins of buildings that were con.
structed with great skill, and were OF
beautiful design.
Central American architecture OF
the past is throughout characterized
by fine feeling for constructive lines
end this seems to be the case in the
matter OF entire cities, groops OF
buildings, single structures or monu
ments. The pyramids frequently fur
nish many historic data, and in con
nection with these pyramids are
found various subsidiary structures
such as affairs, pillars and sacrificial
stones, finely carved with figures that
in most instances lend themselves to
deciphering.
There existed in those early days q
sort of ball game, like that which is
still played by Mexicans These games
The Democratic banner. (Mt. Vernon, Ohio) 1898-192?, 1914-04-07

took place in courts, always running
north and south. The courts were
parts of the pyramidal structures and
evidently were an essential feature
of the period.
Investigations up to the present
time would indicate that the most inn
portant ruins of Guatemala are to be
found in the district on the Usumacita
river. Here the most noteworthy sites
are Piedra Negras and Mencha Tin
amt or Yaxchilan, as it is often
called There are many temples here
covered with sculptured reliefs and
hieroglyphic inscriptions. In the Peten
district Tikah is famous for it's mag.
nificent sculptures representing Ku.
kulkan.
1t is. in fact, not necessary to GO
further from Guatemala City than the
extensive ruins of Guatemala -Mixco
before the searcher finds much that
is of absorbing interest The series
of three pyramids at Chacula and
Quen-Santo, between the Chispas and
the Lacantum rivers, are covered
with characters which indicate that
Mayan culture had penetrated into
what was perhaps, originally the
home of Lacantum civilization.
There is no denying that the an
cient ruins of Copan, on the Other
side of Guatemala, IN Honduras, is
one of the most remarkable antiqui
ties in existence. But this side the
Honduras border lies Quiriga, the re
| mains of which include splendid TEN
, pies and gigantic stone stelte of ex
quisite workmanship.
1t is apparent that the plans now
| under way for further delving into
Guatemala's historic past will bring
to the surface much which AZ the
present time is only guessed at as
belonging to the remarkable Magyar
period
