There exists no special written reg

that wedding ring is put on the fin

of which am sure are entirely imagi-

he and his five companions fled with
out firing a shot. His accounts Of
this adventure, however. have grown

Is pictured as equal to any accom-

Brazil May 20, by Courier to Rio
Janiero.-Our expedition, which is
bound into the remote interior of
Brazil to seek the ruins and vestiges
of the oldest civilizations in history,
now has arrived at the last frontier of
orderly government. prepared to take
the final plunge into the Brazilian
jungle.
Already we have advanced SO far

patched by courier. may require
months to reach the nearest post or

readers who have followed our initial
plans and theories with sympathy and
interest will peruSe these words many
months after | have written them.
BY the time this dispatch is printed
we shall have long since disappeared
into the unknown in the search for
archaeological treasures which l hope
will prove of greater Importance to
the science of world history than any
thing which has ever been revealed
in Egypt or ancient Greece.
l already have outlined the facts
upon which l base my belief that the
earliest civilization in the world rose
and fell in these central plateaus of
Brazil. which still remain almost un-
touched by the spade of the exploring
archeologist. We now stand on the
threshold of this great uneXplored
area-a district twice rs large as the
State of Texas, and inhabited only
by Indian tribes OF the most prmi-
