TEAR UP FAMED COBBLEWAY
Flrct Pavement Trod by Warbound
Yanks In France It About to
Undergo Repair.
The oobblcstono rondwnys of the
uunys of Brest, Frfince, nrc being re
paired. Vetcrnti cobblestones thnt felt
tlio trend of armies from n new hind
or bore upon them the weight of pris
oners from the country beyond the
Rhine ns they worked untl wutched
these same new armies disembark ure
passing Into the dlscurd. Long nnd
well they hnve served their time, giv
ing place to new nnd younger ones
which nre being laid by men us old us
the service of those other.
Not much sentiment about cobble
spiles, think the old men of Brest as
they die them up and toss them con
temptuously aside for the newer nnd
less worn oties, yet back In Amerlcu
the cobblestones of lirest will linger
long In the memory of nlmost 2,000,000
men.
The cobblestones of lirest offered
to countless men of the new Amerlvan
urmles their first march on the soil
ot France. What doughboy will ever
forget them as descending from the
hteamcr with heavy puck nnd rifle, he
stumbled and clattered across them?
As they were the tlrst of French soil
to be beneath his feet, so were they
thnr last, as with victory In his kit,
wJUi the mud of the Argonna Mill on
his shoes, he slipped gleefully over
(hem to the waiting transport nnd
home.
Worn smooth by army trucks nnd
the tramping of men, the old stones
have done their bit. The only echo
of those other days tlint Iiiih come to
them has been In the trucks of the
American Hed Cross, which continue
still to roll from cargo bout to ware
house currying supplies that the peo
ple of Europe might live.
Poisoned by Spider Bit.
Even the true turantulu Is scarcely
more venomous than the spider, of

of the Amerlcnn Medical association:
!Thc spider that I hnve known ns
u .poisonous one Is found In many
places In southwest Texas and north
ern Mexico. It Is small and black,
wTtu a white cross on the back. The
bite )s distinctly painful nnd produces

o'imull that It is hardly noticeable
the next day. After the first hour
there Is ih noticeable local symptoms,
bu(- within a short time after the bite
there Is Intense pnlu In the chest, pal
pitation of the heart and dllllculty In

"I was the victim of such n bite

OLD INDIAN RACE
"Red Paint Problem" Is Interests
ing Archeologists,
Explorations In the State of Maine
Have So Far Been Inconclusive,
But Will Go On.
Since the recent donation to the
state of Maine of a number of boxes
of relics, 3,500 pieces, there has been
u renewed Interest lu the explora
tions going on lu Maine In connection
with the so-culled Ked I'alut Indians.
Several of the earlier explorations
were uround the town of Orlutid In
Hnncock county. Ernest O, Sugden,
the town cleric, bus long been In
terested In Ii:;!lnn exploration work,
and bus himself developed Into quite
an authority on the subject.
Mr. Sugden's curiosity In Indlnn ex
plorations was first aroused In 1892,
when C. C. Wllloughby of the Pea
body museum, Harvard university,
explored the mound at Lake Alu
moosook In Orland. Mr. Sugden, u
watch repairer by occupation, became
u much Interested onlooker. Prof.
Wnrren K. Mooreheud of the depart
ment of archnelogy of Phllllps-An-doer
academy also began explora
tions In Orland.
So Interested did Mr. Sugden be
come In Indlnn exploration work that
dining the past eight yenrs? he" has
assisted lu carrying on explorations
In nine dlffeient stntes.
Prof. Moorehead says there Is In
Maine what the scientists call the
"Ited Paint Problem," so-called be
cause of (he quantities of red ochre
found In the graves In the cemeteries
of these people.
"The problem relates to a people of
very great untlqulty, which were quite
different from Algonklu or other tribes
known In early Maine history. The
graves are so old that no bones re
main. The people seem related to
the earliest Esquimaux. Only by the
most enreful hand-trowel work and
minute observation during exploration
of cemeteries or sites occupied by
these people can we learn concerning
their culture nnd untlqulty.
"In these graves nre found peculiar
gouges, hutchet blades, tlint speurs,
plummets, long pendants, (Ire-stones
und Iron pyrites, und occasionally
chipped arrowheads, but the latter are
not frequently found."
A. II. Ilrldges of Watervllle, who
has long been Interested In archaeol
ogy, called the attention of Gov.
Mllllkeu not long ago to evidences
of the former existence of the Hod
Paint Indians In certain burial
grounds in Watervllle und Wluglow.
"So far as known, the Hed Paint
meu nrc the oldest culture of humnns
In North America," says Mr. Bridges.
"They antedated pottery, as none has
ever been found In their graves.
They were speurmen, not bowmen, us
only spearheads hnve been found In
burluls. They hnd no peuctvplpes,
so knew nothing of tobacco as the
Indians did.
"Stones for striking tire are common
lu graves, sheets of mien either, for
looking glasses or ornament are often
found, gouges nnd speurs and chisels
were most common Instruments of
stone, well mode und some ornu
inented. "They had a printed language ot
peculiar character as traces on a chisel
have been found. More of the lan
guage characters will no doubt be dis
covered ns new cemeteries are ex
cavated. No stone axes hate, been
found.
"The most distinct and peculiar
trait of these people Is the use of red
ochre from Mt. Kntulidln region lu
their cemeteries, the stone Implements
being placed near each body In the
oclire. Truces of these people nre
found along thu Penobscot vnlley,
Androscoggin river, und last summer
John T. Kelllher of Watervllle located
u cemetery on the Sebastlcook river
In Wlnslow."
"After considering the method of
burial und the character of Imple
ments found In Hed Paint graves."
says Mr. Kelllher, "we can easily
arrive at the conclusion that they
were of a different stock from the
historic Indian found here by thu
first Europenns, since It Is well known
that the custom of laying the dead lu
a shallow grave Mid covering the
body with a layer of ochre, or of red
paint, was nut practiced hy the Cant
has or Penobscot tribe of the Algon
quin, who held swny over the Kenne
bec river regions, nor of any other
.tribes of Indians lu North America."
There have been discovered In
Maine 18 of the so-called Hed Paint
cemeteries and there hae been 400
graves examined.
