RUINS THAT ARE MIsNAMED
utogether Wrong Titles Given, for In.
stance, to the Mesa Verde Cliff
Dwellings In Colorado.

Many visitors to the prehistoric
cliff dwellings of the Mesa Verde
National park in southwestern Colo
RADIO are astonished to find that what
is commonly described as a dwelling
is not properly dwelling at all but
village or city. The celebrated
Cliff palace is not a palace. Neither
is Spruce Tree house, nor Balcony
house a house. Each of these is a
complete town which once, in the
dim ages before the earliest Indian
tradition, was an organized commd-
nifty, often Of considerable size.
The arrangement of houses in a
cliff dwelling Of the size of Cliff pal
ace, for example, is characteristic
and intimately associated with the
distribution Of the social divisions OF
the inhabitants. The population was
composed Of number of units. pos
sibly clans, each of which had it's
own social organization more or less
distinct from others, q condition that
appears in the arrangement Of rooms.
The rooms occupied by clan were
not necessarily connected, although
generally neighboring rooms were
distinguished from one another bv
their uses.

Opening this morning under clear
skies, with the atmosphere suggestive
of approaching autumn, the 3Oth an
nual Valley Fair had attracted approx
imatcly 5000 visitors up to an early
hour this afternoon. This is a much
larger attendance than is usually re.
corded for the first day, but the in
crease is doubtless due to yesterday s
postponemcnt, made necessary on ac-
count of the rain. Tomorrow S crowd
is hardly likely to be as big as the
usual secondary gathering, although
it is not unlikely that the attendance
figures for the three days will closely
approximate those of a year ago.
As far as the fair itself is concerned
it is exactly as good as if it had start
ed on schedule time. The various de-.
rartments are filed to their capacity,
with high quality prevalent every
where. In certain exhibits more than
ordinary excellence is apparent, nota-
bly,, theshow of Morgan horses, which
is acknowledged to be the finest ever
assembled on the grounds. The cat.

Local omcer Hit by Car.

George D. Reed, a special policeman
employed by the village, was struck
near the entrance to the Valley fair
grounds early this morning by an
automobile driven by w. S. Wheeler
of Springfield, Mass. Reed was
knocked down and hurt about the hips.
He was first taken TO the emergency
tent and attended by DR.. c. r. Al
rich, who ordered him taken to the
hospital for further treatment. Wheel
er was held by officers pending an in
vestigation. He claimed that the acci-
dent was due to the fact that his brake
broke when he tried to step his car to
avoid hitting Mr.. Reed.

Dynamite Explosion in Sub
way Caused Terrible Dis
aster in New York
STREET CAR FELL
INTO EXCAVATION
And Many Pedestrians Were Engulfed
in the Cave-In, When Entire Block
Between Oath and 25th Streets Col
lapsed.

NEW YORK, Sept. %. - Seven per
sons were reported by the police to
have been killed and more than so Sc
riously injured today when a dynamite
explosion in an excavation of the Sev-
enth avenue subway caused a cave-in
which engulfed a surface car and
many pedestrians
The accident occurred shortly before
o clock and more than half the per-
sons engulfed were women and girls on
their way to business. There were IS
passengers on the trolley car which
dropped 10 feet into the subway exca-
walton when the entire block on Sew
enth avenue between oath and 25th
streets collapsed. Although the car re
mained upright it was partially buried
in the avalanche of concrete, rails
timbers and earth and many passengers
were severely crushed.
Employees in a large Office building
close to where the car went down said
there was a great roar when the pave
ment and portions Of the sidewalk sank.
This was followed a moment later
by the cries of the partially entombed
passengers and pedestrians, who We're
either thrown into the excavation or
knocked down.
Men ana women smashed the car
windows with their bare hands in an
effort to escape, while pedestrians who
were thrown into the hole struggled to
avoid the falling debris and gain the
street level.
Police reserves were called out, two
| fire alarms were rung in and 10 am
balances with 80 surgeons were rushed
| to the scene.
The hospital corps of a large cloak
and suit house directly opposite the
cave-in turned out. The cave-in broke
the water and gas mains and within a
| few minutes after the accident heavy
| flows of gas and water threatened the
| lives of 100 or more persons in the
excavation. Prompt work by city en-
ployes in shutting off the flow of wa
ter and gas put an end to this danger.
Fire ladders and ropes were lowered
/ into the hole and the police and fire
men began carrying out the dead and
injured. while contractors employees
land others worked clearing away the
debris that imprisoned many persons
Within an hour more than so injured
lpersons had been removed.

Opponent More than Two to One
Coolidge Gets Second Place on the
Republican Ticket.

Republican Ticket.
BOSTON, Sept. ga revision of the
complete vote Of the state in yesterday s
joint primaries today somewhat increased
the plurality of the nominees
Gov Walsh was renominated for a third
term by the Democrats and former Con-
gresham Mccall was chosen as his Repub-
hcan opponent.
The total vote of the state for the prin-
cipal candidates was as follows: Republi-
can, governor, Samuel w. Mccall, Win
chester. G5,O35; Grafton D. Gushing, Bos
ton, 59,344; Eugene n Foss, Boston,
10,204: lieutenant governor, Calvin Cool

Milton, 49946.
Democratic governor, David l. Walsh
Fitchburg, 74,493; Frederick S Dietrich,
Cambridge, 3,470.
Returns from about half the state in the
Republican contest for auditor indicated
the denomination of A. B. Cook, the pres
cnt incumbent. The vote in 332 out of
1140 precincts, which include Boston and
nine other eastern cities, Worcester and
four complete western counties was y. b.
Cook, Boston, 24,792; E. c. r. Bagley,
Boston, 14,6T3; S. w George, Haverhill,
1o273.
In the contest for the Democratic nomi-
nations for attorney general J. J. Dona-
hue, SIedford, apparently is successful by
ia substantial majority over Harold Will
liams, Brooklne. The vote for these two
candidates in the same places as in the Re
publican returns for auditor was as fol-
lows: Donahue, 81, ,759 Williams, S,12T.
Despite the unwieldy ballot and the intri-
cacles of the new primary law compare
lively few ballots were rejected because of
improper markings and the total vote for
the Republican and Democratic candidates
for governor was more than 40 per cent
larger than that shown at the primaries
last year.
| Politicians ascribe this to the vigorous
campaign on the part of the several candi-
dates and to an unusually large number of
minor contests.
