Mexico City. Hieroglyphics recent

of the pyramids of San .Tiian Teotl
huacau, U7 miles northeast of Mexico
City, mny solve the problem which has
perplexed historians and urchcologlsts
for centuries ns to the true origin of
the Mexican nation. These strange
carvings arc said by some authorities
to be Chinese, thus tending to bear
out the old tradition that In the dim
past wandering tribes from China
crossed to the new continent, settled
within the present boundaries of Mex
ico and beenmo the progenitors of
the race' which now dominates this
republic. '

claimed himself a sheik of Arabia and
a brother of tho amir of Iledjaz.
Hen Mahomet arrived hero with six

a world-wldo search for Sari, Turk

Kong Tslnng Killing, charge d'affaires
of the Chinese legation In Mexico, vis
ited the pyramids and stated that the
hieroglyphics were similar In many re
spects to certain symbols now In use
by the Chinese. He declared the words
"sun," "city" and "eye" were clearly
depleted. Mexican anthropologists who
have Interested themselves In the dis
covery have declined to pass final Judg
ment until further excavations nre
made and more evidence obtained.
The pyramids of San Juan Teotlhua
can as well as those In Cholula, In the
state of Puebhi, are among the oldest
marks of primitive habitation to be
found In the republic. They stand ns
colossal monuments to peoples whose
history was as obscure to the conquer
ing Spaniards In the sixteenth century
ns to presciit-dny historians. Because
of their general construction, some au
thorities believe they are the handi
work of the Egyptians, who In some
mysterious manner crossed the seas
and denoted their plnces of permnnent
habitation with these stone and cement
structures, which nre even larger tbnn
the most famous pyramids of Egypt.
AS HE SAW CHRIST
Pen Picture of Jesus Is Discov

Drawn by Proconsul In Palestine
Letter Describing "Man of
Strange Virtue."
In
Home. From the dust of more tbnn
10(H) years a studious modern Homun
has rescued a pen portrait of Jesus
Christ. It was drawn In one of the
letters that l'ubllus Lontuliis, who was
a Itotuau pro-consul In i'ulcsthie and
new the Savior In Xii7areth, wrote
to a friend in Italy.
"There has appeared here a man
of strange virtue," l'ubllus l.entulus
wrote. "Ills disciples call him 'The

curls and Is parted In the middle,
after the fashion of the people of
Nazareth. His forehead Is smooth
and serene, without marks or
wrinkles; his countenance Is pink;
his nose Is well formed; his beard, of
the same color as his hair, Is parted
In the middle.
"In his gazo Is an expression of
wisdom and of openness; his eyes are
blue, but shlno terribly when he re
proves people; but In conversation
they are amiable. His observations
to hold this conversation was not ex
plained by the Arabian chieftain, but
after this meeting It seenib Sari disap
peared. .
Her father Iladahlsmo, grieved bit
terly for the loss of his daughter, who
was known tho length and breadth of
Turkey for her beauty anil charity,
and soon he died, leaving her $1(X),000,
000. iladahlsmo was In Turkey, ac
cording to Hen Mahomet, "like Rocke
feller Is In America."
When It was considered certain that
Sari had left her natlvo land, cither
voluntarily or with un abductor, the
amir Is said to have asked his broth
er, who studied at Cambridge universi
ty In England, to search the world for
her and to spare no expense. From
Turkoy tho shclk went to Franco,
thence to Italy and Tnnglers, and

The little village of San Juan Teotl
liiiacan, which In the Aztec laiiguago
means "City of the Cods," was In tho
early days of Aztec history the scene
of extraordinary religious ceremonies.
The two pyramids, one dedicated to
the sun, the other to the moon, nre
known to have been the tombs In which
hundreds of tribal dignitaries wcro
burled, and excavators have exhumed
wrought stone containing huinun bones,
obsld'un knives, tcrrn-cottn bends with
brond faces and lint noses, fragments
of rare pottery and great numbers of
arrowheads.
Find Mask of Monarch.
One of the most recent and most
valuable discoveries was a Jndelto
mask of some past monarch with tho
brow covered with the diadem known
to early Mexican history. The pyramid
to the sun measures 701 by 721 feet at
the base and Is 210 feet high; the one
to the moon Is nil by 420 feet at tho
base and Is Ifil feet h'gh. They both
contnln numerous chambers, and their
severnl stories are complete temples In
themselves, but connected by winding
st n Irs.
The Inscriptions hnvlng Chinese char
acteristics were discovered through
excavating In the ruins of what has
generally been known ns La Claud

cording to recent reports of Investiga
tors, are whnt Is left of a pyramid
larger and perhaps older than tho two
pyramids of the sun und tho moon.

though lie alwnys remains calm. No
body has ever seen him to lnugh ; but
he often weeps. Of n good height and
straight figure he has very beautiful
hands and arms. Ills manner of

little, and Is modest. In short, he is

Expert antiquarians nnd students of
history pronounce tho letters of l'ubll
us Leiitiilus to be entirely genuine.
For centuries they wero forgotten snvo
by students of Lntln nnd nnclent Rome.
The advent of Chrlstmns brought the
letter quoted to tho mind of an old
professor here. He translated It Into
modern Italian and sent It to some of
his learned friends as a historical curi
osity. It seems to verify the belief
that tho Savior had a fair complexion
nnd light hair, as many old artists de
pleted him.
