The maintenance cost of the new
lights will be about $1,400 per year

ment of this cost during the next

the new lights so that a total saving
of practically $4,000 a year will be re-
allied.

FIFTH CENTURY IN
 OLD MAYA COUNTRY
Wonderful Relics Uncovered in
 Far Of YuCatan

Merida. Yueatan, Mex. April 3, tBy Associated Press) Careful eSamina- tion of the Maya ruins of chiehenit- ga. just completed by the American scientist. Dr. Sylvanus c, Morley, has brought to light evidences of a civili- zation dating back to the middle of the fifth century which pr. Morley says was the most advanced of any in the western hemisphere prior to the discovery of America by Colum- bus.
 The research was inaugurated a de- cade ago by the Carnegie institute but was interrupted by the war. The project was again taken up last month when officers of the institution visited Yucatan and spent some time at Chi chenitza. It was apparent that the work would involve the services of large number of scientific special ists as well as extensive excavations covering a long term Of years.
 Dr. Morley said today that the ruins of Chichenitza were very ex- tensive. the religious and civic cen- ters covering an area two miles long and one mile wide. Extending from this center in all directions for three

to. five miles are the remains of stone buildings. These include pyramids, platforms, terraces, plazas and paved roads all now buried in thick tropi- cal foliage. They do not include dwellings of early people which were more lightly constructed and are now so ohliterated that no trace of them has been found,
 In summing up this ancient Ameri- can civilization Dr, Morley said;
 The ruins of chichenitza are those of the largest city Of the new Maya empire which was probably founded about the middle Of the fifth century after Christ by coonists from the old empire cities of northern Guatemala. During the first period if was occu- pied for about two centuries and abandoned for unknown reasons. In the middle of the seventh century the inhabitants moved toward the coast where they stayed three centuries, re- turning to Chichenitza and re-estab- fishing themselves there about 9G5 A., D. It was then ono of n league of three cities the others being Uzmal and Mayapan which ruled YIcatan from the beginning of the iith to the 18th century. It was period of pros- perity with renaissance Of art, arch lecture and sculpture.
 New types of buildings were then erected. the temples showing col- umns cut with feathered serpents, dedicated to their patron deity called kukulcan. or feathere serpent
 The great ball court as large as a modern football field was built and enclosed by massive walls 30 feet high and 25 feet thick. Tn this enclosure games were played not unlike modern basketball, the object being to drive a ball through rings fastened in the side walls.
 "A new religious cult developed un- der which most of the beautiful young ladies were hurled to death in great natural well 1S0 feet in diameter and 70 feet deep, as sacrifices to the of tended rain deities during droughts The fame of this sacred well spread far and wide, so that pilgrims came from a great distance to make preci- ous offerings of carved jade, copper, bells, pottery and incense, which were deposited in this well as sacrifices to the rain gods.
 Mecca of Mayas
 Because of the extraordinary spec tacular character of their religious rites and ceremonies Chichenitza be- came the Mecca of the whole Magyar word.
 Tt is difficult to make an estimate of the population of Chichenitza dur ing the period of her greatest glory, but personally I think the whole Itza nation could not have numbered less than quarter of a million and pos sibly half a million"
 pr. Morley is leaving for Mexica City where he will stop for two weeks, travelling thence overland to GNate- mala, where he will excavate two temples at the ruins of Quirigna. Upon the completion of this work he intends to return to Washington.
