tween Ellis Street and Potrero
Avenue, Luis Gonzalez, a Mexi'
can laborer in the employ of
Contractor Singleton, unearth-
ed three prehistoric stone axes,

all remarkably well preserved,
and all of most perfect work

them, on exhibition at the In
ternational Hotel, is about five
inches in length, and half that
in diameter, weighing several
pounds. 1t was cut from a fine
grained basaltic rock, the lines
are perfect, and the cutting
edge is as finely drawn and

it must have been given a high
polish, for after having laid in
the ground many years the sur
faces are smooth yet, and show
but little c0rrosion.
