Diinngo , Col. , llfralct ,
Having ilocitlcd to brcnk nwny from
the liunulruni routine of ( ivory day
life , we , on the 27th day of July ,
loaded ourselves , our liuds , and three
days provisions promiscuously into
thrco wngons nud stnrtud for the
Montczuum vnllcy , distant to the
lower run , or Aztec spring , seine
thirty miles.
.UlRHTI/rt'llAI , RflXS.
The inina of Southwestern Coloiado
Hro rcumrkahlo for their grent n fe , ex-
nd numbers ; nnd , lulo wo
nrc jg giii } ' along towards the IUou-
tczunm nuns , n short sketch 'of Ihu
Glances ngriculturnl nuns will per
haps not bo out of place. They com-
incnco at the extreme uuper end of
the valley , nnd extend down for n
distance , of nt least six miles. They
show very grout ago. All that now
marks the situ of a house is n low
mound of debris consisting of rock ,
pieces of burned mud nnd mortnr ,
and broken pottery Not less than
one hundred of the debris mounds
were counted in n distance of four
miles along the best paib of the
valley , the part which now is being -
ing cultivated. At olio clump of these
rums not less than forty motato or
millstones can bo counted , nearly nil
broken , only two having been found
whole. They were used for grinding
corn , and other food substances. The
usual stouo selected was n ( [ Uartzito
boulder , two feet long by one wide ,
nnd six to ten inches thick. The
grinding was done with n stpno of
similar character , four inches wide by
eight long , nnd ono inch thick. This
w.is moved b\ck and forth lousjthwiso
of the larger stone until a groove was
formed from five to ten indies wide ,
deeper in the middle than nt the ends.
In seine instances this groove was
worn down to the depth of eight
inches , showing long use. These , nnd
the fact of finding large quantities of
charred corn , suggested the nnmo
ngriculturnl , in contradistinction to
the Montcisumn ruins , which were
probably occupied by a stock-raising
community , as but very few , if any ,
motato stones can bo found. And , besides -
sides the infrequency of rain nnd the
scarcity of running water , these would
better fit the country for stock. The
following articles have been unearthed
from the Mnncos ruins , the most of
which can bo scon in collection
hero ; nine whole pieces of pottery ;
two motato stones , with grinders ;
ono turquoise bead ; thrco stone
axes ; various chipped flint im
plements , the larger part arrow
points , of excellent workmanship.
THE MONTEZUMA RUINS.
Now for the Montezuma valley ,
land of "magnificent distances. " "VVe
reached Pegasus spring ( the old Mitch
ell place ) about ton o'clock. The
spring breaks out from under the
rocks at the right hand of McEltuo
creek , a stream which is dry most of
the year. Quantities of excellent
choke cherries grow hereand were ap
preciated by the little folks as well ns
wo Inrger children. A vein of conl
crops out some three hundred yards
above the spring ; nnd our first ruin is
built almost above the spring on a
bare rock. It was n circular building
twenty-eight feet in diameter , with
walls live feet apart. The space be
tween was divided into small rooms
or bins , one of which has been clean
ed out and measures four feet by five.
A portion of the wall is still standing
to a height of seven feet , and shows
good masonry work. The outer lay
ers of stone arc dressed to the curva
ture of the building. Wo did not
take time to excavate here and found
no relics of interest. Wo left about
three o'clock for the lower clump of
ruins , known as Aztec springs , at
which place we arrived in the evening
The water here is not very good , and
the spring is probably dry a
portion of the summer. Hero wo
camped for the night. These ruins
are quite extensive and cover an area
of three or four acres , which was
once closely packed with buildings.
The largest building was about ninety
feet long by sixty feet wide. The
mound formed by the debris is near
twelve feet high , with a portion of the
north wall standing to the top. The
outer layer of this wall is laid with
dressed stone. Three hours of hard
work with pick and shovel was ro-1
quired to penetrate this wall , which
was nearly four feet thick and laid in
mortnr. No open space was' found in
side , it being completely filled with
the rubbish of the upper stories- '
rock , mortar , broke cedar timbers ,
etc. yo did not have tinje to got
down to the iloor ; consequently found
no relics. At 10clock wo started
back , taking n moio northerly and
circuitous route , to visit the last nnd
what proved the most interesting ruin
in the valley. It was sundown when
wo reached it. No living water is
known hero nearer than twelve or fif
teen miles. Wo had hauled water for
our own use , nnd the recent rains had
left enough in the dry washes for our
stock.
MOllB UUINH.
There are quite a number of ruins
scattered around hero , but the two
hundred roomed house is the princi
pal ono , and all that is necessary to
dcbcribe , The debris of the fallen
walls of this building forms a mound
120 feet long by ! IO feet wldo nnd 18
feet high , and stands out on the level
valley half n mile from the surrOunding -
ing lulls. Portions of th outer and
division walls , iLoiing nnd ceiling
timbers , can bo scon cropping out all
over this debris mound ; but , what is
etill bettor , two rooms roirminwhole ,
the ceiling 'or ' upper floor having been
BO well preserved by n hard , black ,
gla/.od coaling 'probably formed by
smoke ; that it still supports iU iin-
moiiso load of eight feet of rock nnd
mortar , which is , no doubt , the fallen
walls pf two nt lunuH o stories ubovf ,
these preserved rooms making three
stories in all. Tvp ) circular depres
sions , BomoiK ) feet in diameter , mark
the site of twp circular rooniti , which
\vuro probably need as eiiJral ( council
rooms ,
A building containing pyor 200
rooms in Southwestern Colorado ,
built , perhnpB , J,000 or moro years
ago , ia no small curiosity , and ono
well worthy of investigation. The
assertion that this building contained
over 200 rooms may seem a little in
credible , but "figures won't lie. "
We'lJ proceed to measure. The debris
mound , as before Btnted , is 120 by pO
'
feet. Wo will deduct' ten /eet all
around for rubbish , that has fallen
outward beyond the walls. Tim
leaves us 100x70 , ns the original ie
of the structure. Kcducing 100x70
to square foot , wo have 7,000 squn.ro
feet , being the snnco occupied by the
b.tilding. The two preserved rooms
measure respectively 7x7 nnd 7x'ntul > I
8 feet high. The walls nvcrngo IM. >
feet in thickness , The nverngo space
taken up by ono room \\ithitspio
portion of wall would bo , SxlO ) feet ,
equal lo flO squnro feet. Now , if we
divide the space occupied by the
whole building by the spaed occilpiinl
by ono room , wo will have the num
ber of rooms in the first story. Sovrn
thousand feet divided by I'O ' ia 77.
This gives us 77 rooms. lut ( In-
two round rooms occupied n
Space equal to about ten square roomi.
This leaves us (17 rooms on each floor ,
exclusive of the two round rooms
The eight or nine feet of wall rubbish
resting on the lower room , proves the
building to have nt least been three
stoi ies high. This gives us the slim
total 07x51 201- two hundred nnd
ono roomi exclusive of the round
rooms. Enough outcropping walls
can bo scun to show that the building
was divided into rooms something
near the dimensions given. The dour
ways were very smallj twenty inches
wide by three foot high , and placed
half way from the floor to the ceiling.
There is also an opening in the ceil
ing or upper floors connecting with
the different slot ies ,

This 200-roomed house is situated

Novntln , Jurors-
Last nicht a , number of men were
sitting in front of the Ormsby house
discussing the big mining suit in Eu
reka between the Richmond anil
Albion. Uon. Jvjttrell , W. W. Bishop ,
Sine Barnes. Johnny Moore , and
others were interesting the crowd with
recitals of the suits they had seen.
Bishop nnd Kittroll insisted that of
late years the atmosphere of the
courts had been purer than in the
earlier days.
"That is , " said Barnes , ' 'thinner
and weaker ; in other words , jurors
cost less than formerly. ' '
Both the lawyirj agreed that coin
bad a potent influence. When the
law was all on their side and the jury
on the otncr , they could only explain
ib on a coin hypothesis.
At this point an old grizzly-bearded
man who had been listening slid up
and remarked : *
"Mining suits ain't what they used
to be. There's been no real live liti
gation to speak of since the Raymond
mend & Ely suit with the Hermes in
Piocho. "
"Were you in town ? "
"Well , rather ; I traveled four hun
dred miles on n mule to get to the
jury box. I struck the town about ( J
o'clock at night , and , walking into the
lead bar-room , inquired if the suit
had begun. Inside of half an hour a
man coino up and asked mo what my
name was. Ho wrote it down on his
shirt cuff , and then ho said : 'Pard ,
if you want to stay and BOO the suit ,
lot mo BOO you through on your ex
penses ; ' and ho handed mo $500 , re
marking that ho thought the R. & E.
had the bulge on the law. I said that
I thought that myself , and then I
sauntered off. In about an hour a
man came to mo and told mo I was
drawn on the jur3T. I said I didn't
mind , and agreed to stand in. About
D o'clock a man tapped mo on the arm
and handed mo SfiOO , remarking that
the Hermes had about all the law and
Facts on their side that was necessary.
Ho thought J might need n little
money for expenses. Of course I
took the money , ho seemed so anx
ious to get rid of it , and then I slip
ped into a back room , nut on n pair of
False side-whiskers , n thin silk duster
I had been carrying under my coat ,
nnd I was n changed man. By 10
o'clock I was on a good hoi so that I
paid ? 300 for , and started oh"on a
prospecting trip. I couldn't bear the
idea of holding the scales of justice
'
in a case like th'a't. I wns fearful of
further corruption , you seo. But on
the trial I wusiepresented by n proxy.
On the road I met old Bill D.unon ,
dead broke nnd discouraged. I put
him on the lay , and ho Btartod double
quick for Piocho. He struck the
lodge rich , I guess , for when I next
heard of him ho was driyin' a spank-
in' team nnd enjoying life , " Careoji

Virginia KnterprUu ,
Hank Monk is inconsolnlo. Last
evening in driving from Luke Tahoe
to .Carson , ho experienced the first
upset of his life. Ho left the lake
half nn hour behind time ( the steamer
being delayed in crossing the lake by
a heavy wind ) ; and was chiving at a
very rapid rate when the mishup oc.
currcd ,
Ho had nboard hta coach nn nasson-
\iura \ twelve udnlta aud two children
Kight adults were on top of the
coach and the rest with the children
Inside.
Among the passengers weio ux-At-

The upset occurred at a rough plnco
just this side of the bniiimit , Mies

the coach wont over. Hunk huld to
Iho lines likn grip ) death , and , though
jolng nt rapid gait , stopped the team
Uniost instantly , the coach not mov

As Hank tosu from mother earth ho
rpnt out a mouthful of dust and
semarkod , "That's ' the first time it
ever happened to mo. " rcmSJ
( Jon. i > eyeun said to his daughter.
, 'There , ypu'vaalways wanted to havp
a ndo with Hank Monk now you've
had it1 !
In live minutes' time Hank again
liad his coach right uido up and woa
spinning down the mountain , but not
uyy. ) Ho felt gore. Ho said ho once
upset a bullion wagon , with no ono
iboard , but never before in his life
liad ho upset a passenger coach.
The only thing that happened teat
at all console him was the fact that ho
got through to Carson "on time , " us
ho did when ho landed Horace flrcclcy
nt Vlacorville. This , nnd the fact
that no ono was hurt except n few

I 'tllr ' KwkOazcttc.
Several dnys ago old Jerry estab
lished n small restaurant , furnished
with two pine trbloi nnd four benches.
It wns designed for colored people ,
nnd in order to attract that clasi of
custom the old man hung out a oign
bearing this piece of intelligence :
"Fried Catfish. " Next day u mali
cious rival rubbed out 'tho "fish. "
leaving thu world to infer that the old
man sold fried cat ; nnd then entering
the restaurant , sat down aud asked , '
" ( I'm mo seine of do yallcr species. "
" 1 doan grapple do termination ob
ycr adverbs , sail , " replied the pro
prietor.
"Gin mo seine of line fur sort. "
"Yer verb lingers too much in dc
shade ob do proper noun. "
"Gin mo a spring kitten. "
"Tor leab grammar an' como down
to rithmotic , I doan grab do mulplica-
tion table ob what yer's triyin1 to git
through yor. "
"Yer sign says dat yor's got fried
cat ; 1 wants n spring kitten. "
"Cat fish , snh , my sjun remarks "
"Bet yor a hess again yor 'stablish-
meat dat dc sign says fried cat widout
do fish. "
"All light. Do restaurant is up. "
"lu lions is under do shed yonder.
Yor's n man of honor , so is I. Now
let's 'cido the question. "
When Hie old man looked nt the
sign he threw up his hands , hardened
by toil nud wrinkled by years. "Do
'stablishmout is ycr own , " ho said.
His rival joyously acknowledged the
willingness with which the old man
surrendered the properly , when Jerry
remarked : *
"Willin'ncss begets willin'ncBH ,
doali hit ? "
"Yerself isn ilosifor , , ole man. "
"But is my statement crccked ? "
"Yes , sah. I'd stake my arthly
"sessions on do truth ob yor observa
tion. "
"Wai , don , scnso yor's so willin' tor

nuediu' uv a hess mor'n I is n restau
rant , an' as 1'so ' got a brirtlo handy I'll
take do hess an1 go out Icctionccring' '
fur some future ofiico. " And before
the rival could recover from his sur
prise , the old man had mounted the
horse. But when ho did recover , he
rushed up ; caught him by ono leg and
dragged him to the ground. A lively
fight ensued , and occasionally through
a cloud of dust bystanders could BOO
that rheumatism .had taken sides
against Jerry. When the two men
had boon separated , Jerry wont to the
atato house , and walked , unannounced
into the executive chamber.
"Gubnor , " ho said , "I'so got n
mighty fine case fur yor dis time , "
and ho explained the cause of his visit.
"I wants do military tor take charge
ob dis caso. Dor civil authority ,
which is myself , fur I'so always civil ,

is settled. "
The governor explained that the
matter belonged to the civil depart
ment of the state.
'But civil means hab bin V.austed.
I was mighty civil ter dat man. lo

'thorities , do law says. Wall , don ,
