DR.. Felukes about to Start
For Mesa Verde Park
Indian Caches.

pr. j. Walter Fewks of the Smith
sonian Institution is ready to start his
sixteenth year of exploration among the
ghosts of Il vanished people.
The chief of the Smithsonian In
stitution bureau of ethnology will
leave Washington in few days for
Mesa Verde. National Park. Col,
where he will resume his excavations
of buried Indian villages. which in
the past have thrown new light on
life in America before Columbus.
DR. FewkeS' latest discoveries, just
reported to the Smithsonian. concern
the religious rites of the dead desert
people. The Washington man and his
party dug into mound covered with
d.ns vegetation. Complete eXcava-
tion revealed ruined walls of a re-
markable building.
Found Fire Altar.
In the center was a fire altar around
which the dead race probably had
worshirred Among the objects found
in the ashes We're decorated clay to-

i.
and. after smoking threw, their pipes
and offerings into the fire. Or.
t'"wkeS believes that every ceremo-
nial opened and closed with these
smoking rites.
Towards the west of tffe ruin Or.
Fewk"s found the foundations of a
circular tower. whose walls once
rose. like a mnaret. several feet
above the high walls of the surround
ing rooms. The top of the tower
rising above the cedar trees. served
as the elevation from which the sun

BY this design the priests were able

About the temple We're found in
cised figures OF plumed snakes and
crudely fashioned fragments OF a
stone idol of the mountain lion. The
belief is that the village was inhab-
