Found Old Chinese City

A London, dispatch says.-Marco Polo's City of Etzina, where in ancient times travellers bound for the old Mon- golian capital of Karakoram used to obtain food for the forty-day trip across the desert, has been discovered and eX- amined by Sir Aurel Stein, whose ac- count of explorations in Central Asia has just been received by the Royal Geographical Society.
 Sir Aurel began his trip in April of last year and his report is dated Mo- vember 22 from Turfan at the eastern foot of the Tian Shan mountains. His party started from Tunhuang and fol- lowed for 250 miles an ancient wall, which he had previously discovered. The wall, with it's watch towers, forts and military stations, was built across even what must have been even in ancient times sterile desert. Its construction was remarkably well adapted to the climate, being made of fascines of reeds or brushwood with

layers of clay or gravel in between, the only material to withstand the slow grinding but relentless erosion of the winds. Here the Chimes soldiers kept guard during the first centuries before and after Christ. The works show a high degree of engineering skill. In ancient times, this country was irri- gated, as the remains of ditches proved. Many household implements wore found in the ruins of the forts.
 Khara-Khoto, Marco Polo's city of Etzina, yielded a large quantity of relics such as Buddhists manuscripts, prints, stucco reliefs and frescos, coins and ornaments. The town is now largely in ruins.

 1 have not as yet evolved any plan for the relief of the dire necessity of the people of my county, but l hope that in the near future some logical plan will be presented as it will mean much, not only to the people of Apache County but to the entire State. Had the Reservoir not been destroyed there is no doubt that the lands under the project would have meant an increase (within the next six or seven years) to the taxable wealth of the State of more than five million dollars"
