MadisOn-Austin cars used to be
marked MadisOn-City Limits. That
meant that they would run to the'city
limits. Now, that they are marked
MadisOn-AUstin, does the car COM
pany think that that means the car
can stop anywhere west of Cicero,
where Austin starts? And it that
why the signs on the cars were
changed?

CIVILIZATION OF AGES AGO
Ruins of 172 Cities, Big and Little,
Have Been Discovered on W.
catan Peninsula.

Scattered all over the Yucatan pen
insula are monuments to a civilian
ton that flourished thousands of years
ago. Just how many thousand nobody
knows and scientists differ very ma
terially in their ideas on the subject
The prevailing belief, however, is that
this civilization was in full swing as
late as the beginning of the Chris
tian era. Other scientists assert that
the ruins antedate those of Egypt.
Yucatan can well be called "the
American Egypt" George Minor writes
in the Mexico Review. The ruins of
172 cities, big and little, have been dis
covered, and not quarter of the ter
ritory has been carefully explored, for
the tropical verdure makes the finding
of the ruins difficult. You might pass
within a hundred feet of q wonderful
old temple or pyramid a hundred
times and not discover 1t, so effective
ly does the jungle screen these crum-
bling monuments of the distant past
and shield them from the prying eyes
of this inquisltive and presumptuous
age.
OF the 172 clusters of ruins discov-
cred, two sets represent what were
once large and prosperous cities, of
about one-half million inhabitants
each. Doubtless at different times each
one of these two cities was the capt.
tai of the country.

WAR WAS STARTED BY WOMAN
Civil Conflict in England Dated From
Time Jenny Geddes Threw Stool
at Bishops Head.

A stool. such as people used TO sit
upon in churches, and which was cast
ut the head of the dean of ST. Giles in
Edinburgh, may be said to have
marked the beginning of the civil war
in England which ended with the
downfall of Charles ii. This event
took place on July %, 1857. 1t will
be remembered that James / eontriyed
to introduce bishops into the Scottish
church. His son, Charles /, desired
to go still further and introduce book
of canons and a liturgy. Archbishop
Laud, whose tendencies were toward
the Roman Catholic church, backed
him in his project. Between them they
prepared a Service book, and the order
went forth to have it read on certain
Sunday in all the churches In Scotland.
The Scotch, however, declined to have
their religious service tempered with.
When the day came for reading the
new service book few of the clergy
were willing to proceed with 1t, such
was the opposition among the people.
In the principal church of Edinburgh,
the chancel of the old cathedral of st.
Giles, which contained seats of the
judges, magistrates and other authori-
ties, the liturgy was formally intro
duced under the auspices of the bishop,
dean and other clergy.
There were no pews in those days,
each person bringing his own stool to
church with him. When Bishop James
Hannah started to read the service
one Jenny Geddes arose and threw her
stool at the good mans head. So
started the first outbreak in a conflict
that was to have important results.
