Pyramid Older
 Than Egypt's is
 Found in Mexico

Washington, D. C., Feb. 17.-A pyramid that may rival those of EgYptl for size, and prove to be teyea older than the Nilesion piles, ! is reported discovered at Teotihua- cao. Mexico.
 Long ago two other pyramids, relies of the Toltec people of pre- Columbian times, were found among lthe colcaic ashes around San Juan lTeotihuacan, meaning City Of the Gods, Q village about 25 miles north least of Mexico City," says a bnlle- Ytjn of the National Geographic So, Hcietv
 Excavation of the new pyramid may help to lift the veil which aims our knowledge of these American pyramid- builders, members of by gone race.
 Temples Devoted to Sun. Certain it is that the pyramids of Teotihuacan. which already are widely known, have kept their heads above the vomiting of angry volca- 1 noes for numberless centuries, while it would appear that the cit lies near by were without doubt bur jed in those bygone ages by volcanic eruption. The Toltecs were by tra- dition famous mound builders, and here is seems they mingled with their reverence for the Supreme Be- ing the mythical religion of astral worship. Their earliest temples were devoted to the sun. The moon they worshipped as his wife and the stars as his sisters. No image was allowed within these temples and their offerings were perfumed flow CTS and sweet-scented gums. ]"The projecting stones of 'El Sol, fthe highest pyramid, seen here and there over thhe pyramid, mark the gable workers until they gained the amid was divided into stories by placing a series of truncated pyra- mids one above the other.
 "Two hundred and sixty-eight steps must be climbed to reach the summit. The pyramid is 216 feet I in height, and has base about 761 feet square The summit is 59 by 105 feet square.
 Strange Idols Dug Up.
 "Many strange idols have been dug up--Dioses of grotesque form and many others. Many beautiful pieces of jade and obsidian, arrowheads- little jars of burnt clay, earthen jars of antique form, and others sim ilar to those in use at the present time. One little piece of cloth that was found is carefully guarded in the museum. Many skulls, as well as some skeletons, have also been unearthed.
 Reaching the summit, one is richly rewarded, for fine expanse of country lies unfolded to the gaze with just peep of the snow-capped volcano Popocatepetl for in the dis tance, while wonder the little town of San Juan appears sleepily dreaming under the shadow of the pyramids. Turning to the right, not far distant, stands the Pyramid of the Moon Qa Luna), smaller than the Sun Pryamid,' but looking very green and attractive, covered yet with it's mantle of grass, heavy un- |derbrush, and trees"
