Thus your "old master" may really be only a voung mistake. ^ "Lost City of Nevada , Once Populous Place There was a large elty In the Moapa valley ln Nevada at the time of Christ where salt was mined, cotton grown, and where the weaving and dyeing of cotton cloth had reached a high state of development, writes M. R. Harrington, archeologlst, in the Outlook. Mr. Harrington with an expedition from the Museum of the American Indian in New York unegrtbed a city of over five miles In length, officially titled "Pueblo Grande de Nevada" and popularly known as the "Lost City." One of the burled houses was discovered to contain 100 rooms. Bushels of charred corn were found, which led to the belief that there was a large farming population. "But farming and hunting were not the only occupations open to these Novadans of 20 centuries ago," writes Mr. Harrington ln the Outlook, "for the weaving and dyeing of cotton cloth had reached quite a high state of development. Scraps of textilea turned up In our diggings, crumbling rags that were really precious, that showed coarse weaves and fine, which proved dyeing In red and blue and yellow, in purple and black. Doubtless the cotton was grown here, too. "We also discovered that, the Navada of Christ's time had a mining Industry, even as now--at least as far as salt mines are concerned--and that the Lost City people worked a series of mines of this sort to a really remarkable extent The largest salt mine In which they left their 'visiting cards' showed ancient workinga back In the mountain three to fonr hundred feet from daylight. So much of this salt was mined that It seems hardly possible it could nil have been need at home; some, at least must have- gone into trade with tribea.** . Would Harnett Galea One of the most novel propositions In the matter of navigation ever advanced Is that for which a French mariner named Fieron stands responsible. The Frenchman thinks that advantage may be taken of the favorable winds at the edge of a cyclone for facilitating navigation. By means of observations with the barometer and other instruments he would ascertain the direction ln which the storm is gofng and so shape the course of his ship that it would be carried along by the sweep of the atmosphere, without becoming involved ln the dangerous center of the storm. This proposal to treat cyclon«s as friendly aids to navigation may strike one as an extravagant play of fancy, but It Is soberly advanced by Fieron, who, it is said, has made certain successful expcrimeifts in this new method of sailing the sea.--Waahlngton Star. . Archeologists Have Proof in Relict Found. That trade relations existed between the prehistoric Indian groups in America, though they were separated by geographic barriers and tribal enml ties, is further evidenced in a collection of archeologlcal objects from the Columbia River valley, ln the state of Washington, obtained by the Smithsonian Institution. The relics were gathered and are now being classified by Herbert W. Krieger, curator of ethnology at the National museum, under the Smithsonian. Among the artifacts found by Mf. i Krieger at the ancestral homes dfr* serted by the Columbia River Indiana more than 100 years ago are catllnlte pipes from Minnesota and pipes from the Pueblo region ln the Southwest; abalone shell charms from Alaska; hallotls shells from southern California, and dentalium beads from the Pacific coast The type of subterranean house Is identical with that to be found in Alaska, the Aleutian islands and Siberia. Yet the Columbia River Indians had no means of transportation to take them over the mountains and they were hekt to the river for their food supply. As a tribe they were nonmigratory, hut individuals made casual tripa for trading ""I hunting purposes. Mr. Krleger's study has established the link which haa bean missing to show the continuity of culture among the early inhabitants of America from British Columbia to the Pueblo tribea of the Southwest Customs sifted through from one community to another, much as the Indians themselves spread, no doubt, from Asiatic ancestors who drifted ln ages ago. That the Columbia River Indians established themselves in the valley before the time of the domestication of the the pig, sheep and horse in Asia, before the invention of the wheel or the cultivation of cereals seems evident from the reconstruction of their civilization. The Columbia River valley was thickly settled, possibly the most populous Indian center of early times, according to Mr. Krieger. For 600 miles, from The Dalles ln Oregon to the Canadian border, ,the camp sites and burial grounds line the river banks. 3%gse Indign^ werg masters of the stone v^Trker's art, as the Smithsonian collection shows; they cultivated only tobacco Hfld got their food from the"river and froS roots! ?The dead were cremated with their possessions, or burled in cemeteries on islands in the river. 8amples of the picture writing practiced by the Indians abound.^' The markings are about half an Inch deep, usually made ln columns of basalt Animals, such as sheep, goats, deer and elk were commonly represented; also the human figure; conventional designs, such as the rising sun, and mnemonic or memory writing, consisting of arbitrary signs understood by the members of the tribe. The writing was apparently more a means of artistic expression than a method of conveying thought, according to Mr. Krieger. Only one picture- of a horse has been found. It was the introduction of the horse about 1750 which broke up this old civilization in the Columbia stiver valley, for with the horse, the group became mobile. It Is an interesting fact that the horse ln North America spread from a nucleus formed by a few which escaped from Coronado's troops in 1541. One of the eastern railroads ifow has a locomoilve capable of attaining a speed of 120 miles an hour, but nothing is said about bow many miles it gets out of a gallon.

Her End Opunt von Hoogstraeten, who recently took out his first papers toward naturalization, said to a New York reporter the other day: "I am not the mercenary wretch that aome people nretend. Why, some people pretend," he went on, with a grim amlle, "that I'm as mercenary as the girl in the roadhouse story. "A very nice old gentleman proposed to a girl in a roadhouse. She was beautiful--one of those nude dancers, In fact--and the old gentleman took her hand in his and proposed eloquently. Then he wound up: " 'I am not young, but a man, darling, Is only as old as he feels.' "She laughed and patted his withered cheek caressingly. " 'Oh. I ain't worrin' about that end of It grandpop,' she said. 'What I want to know Is, are yoa aa tieh aa you look?*" Bread Upon the Waters " This little Incident has been reported to us: A woman got on a Back Bay car and, fumbling for her purse, she foand she had left it at home. "I'm afraid I shall have to get off at the next stop," she said to the conductor. "I havent brought any money with me." x Just then a newsboy who was standing near her said: "Here, lady, I got a dime to lend yer." She looked at the boy and took the proffered coin. "Thank you," she said. "I'll pay It back If joa will give me your iddress." "Don't worry about dat," he replied. "I'm the kid you gave half a dollar to las' Christmas when you bought a paper from me on de corner. I ain't forgot you. I'm aellln' papers there yet." She smiled at him aad when he left the car he was about the proudest boy In town.---Boston Transcript BaptitmcU Superttition According to an old English superatition, says the Dearborn Independent when children of different sexes were brought to the font at the same time the boy -must precede the girl; otherwise she was In danger of having a beard wben she grew up. Hit Wife at Monitor1: Often the judgments of the tmreftn of industrial relations are laid deep ln human nature. A New York manufacturer advertised in the newspapers for young women of a particular type. Girls who took employment ln his factory complained of his attentions to them, but none was willing to appear publicly to prosecute him. The authority of the state was invoked, with the result that the manufacturer promised no longer to advertise for employees of any special style or complexion. But the further compromise arranged by the state is described ln the Induatrial Bulletin in these words: "It was agreed that the manufacturer's wife remain In the place of business so that no further trouble of thla kind should occur." Most husbands will agree that the arbitration was well salted.--New York Sun. A shrill siren pierced the air. Traffic along the busy thoroughfare for 21 blocks was instantly halted.

Yanking the trout over his. head, he turned around to look straight down the gullet of a grizzly, poised to catch the descending fish.
