TELLS OF ANCIENT AMERICA
Or. Herbert Spinden, Back From Yu-
catan, Describes Ruins of
Great Cities

From Yucatan and the jungles of
Central America Dr. Herbert j. Spin
den of the Museum of Natural His
tory, has returned with archaeological
and chronological collections and
drawings and studies of the art of the
Maya country of great value to the
museum.
Doctor Spinden travelled about fif-
teen hundred miles through the jun
giles and spent six months exploring.
At Belize Doctor Spinden was
joined by S. G. Morley of the Carne-
gle institution. Washington, and the
two travelled 10 Flores, on a pictur-
esque island in Lake Peten, where
Doctor Spinden made his headquar-
tiers for an expedition to the ancient
cities of the Maya Indians. The pop
ulation today is 5000, but about A. D.
Geo the region had about 100000 peo-
pie. The country is now virgin forest.
AN interesting question has been
raised, says Doctor Spinden, "as 10
whether the decrease of population
has been caused by climatic changes
There are seven cities of the first
class in this region, the greatest and
most famous being Tikal. 1t is in the
heart of the jungle. and the ruins ex-
tend over square league. Among the
features are enormous terraces and
pyramids. The cities were laid with
piazas and yiaducts. On the sculp-
tured monuments are deliberately cos
TUNED warriors, while other bear
dates of interest to the student of
Maya history.
THE great temples have enormous
roof structures. and the broad lintels
are made from slabs OF very hard
and permanent wood called chicoza-
pote. These lintels are carved with
priests and affairs and sacrifices, and
although placed in position about
A. d. 500, many are still in perfect
preservation

Twin Falls Pays Fitting Tribute
to Veterans.
CIVIC ORDERS SHOW RESPECT

Exercises for the Day Attended by
Large Crowd. Rev. Mr.. Franck the
Orator.

Memorial Day was fittingly observ-
ed in Twin Falls Monday. All of the
business houses were closed in
honor of the day. The fore
noon was spent in decorating
the graves of the soldiers at rest in
the Twin Falls cemetery. The parade
was one of the best in the history of
that day in this city and was several
blocks long. 1t was headed by the
Twin Falls band which rendered in
spring music. In line were the local
militia company, the Independent Order
of Odd Fellows, Rebekahs, Modern
Woodmen of America, Boy Scouts, Sons
of Veterans, and Dan McCook Post,
Grand Army of the Republic. Fol-
lowing those on foot were more tnan
fifty automobiles and carriages.
When the parade reached the end
of the paving on Main avenue, the
soldiers took automobiles and went to
the cemetery, where services were
held. Company d, the local militia
company marched to the cemetery,
where a salue was fired

out.

The Rupert team was outclasSed in
Sundays game with Twin Falls. Hart
was working in splendid form and
famed many of the Rupert men. The
few hits they made off of his delivery
were well scattered and the only score
made by Rupert was the result of an
error. Twin Falls played a pretty
game in the field and hit the ball
hard. In fact, Rupert didn't appear as
strong as either Shoshone or Jerome.
Mondays game was against real
team and the local boys suffered little
by comparison. Ansell pitched his
usual strong game and if the team had
not gone to pieces in the early in
nings when Pocatello scored three
runs on errors that were most un-
fortunate, he would undoubtedly have
won his game. Fast fielding was seen
on both sides, the outfielding being
of particularly brilliant order. To
show how busy the Twin Falls men
were, the outfielders alone accepted
ten chances without an error, which is
as many as usually come their way
in two games. Twin Falls made a
great try to save the game in the fin
al inning and by some heavy batting
brought the score up to a to 6, at
which point the loyal fans crowded
against the ropes and pulled their best
for the home team. But the lead was
too big and the game ended to 6.
We hope Poeatello can come down
again. They are the classiest team
seen this season and from the
way the local team performed,
they are not far outclassed after all.

games by innings.

Few people even in our own town
have a full conception of the capacity
and convenience of the hotel. The
large reception rooms and dance hall
in the basement are an innovation.
The beautiful and well-lighted dining
room is easily accessible from street
