mining eiunps.
11 seems but yesterday , as I now
I'ccall it,1 nnd yet it was over eight
years ago.
Strange , isn't It , how quickly tlmo
flies In these great mountains. Men
BOOH got old hunting for gold and sil
ver , Imt young men take their places ,
nnd their is the over delving and dig
ging for the hidden treasures. The
world knows of these who were fortun-
nto , and who , hy ti turn of the pick , or
n blast In the rock , brought lo light the
precious metal. An humble miner be-
i ; : ' , > mes a millionaire and his mime is
fcjwn a household word.

It came like a dream , hut a dream
that is true ,

.goddess of fortune. Some have grown
Cray hwulofl , hut still they search for

these great mountains. Will thov find

will write of another feature of the
mining camp life.
Nameless graves.
There are thousands of thorn in the
Hoc--.y ! mountains. On mountain crests ,
in the gorges , near the hanks of the
rashing torrent and in sequestered and
quiet nooks , under the overhanging1
rooks aye , everywhere. Sometimes
tlioro Is hardly a knoll. The little pine
hoard put at the head has rotted away.
j , Or , perchance , if still standing , the letters -
' , tors on it are faded out.

V It tolls its own story.
v I wonder what eastern home is still
J. ; waiting and watching for the return of
ono who is not ?
A 3iAn , WILD ursir.
O. that mad , wild rush of eight years
ngof I write as one who was in it , saw
it. felt It. It was a time of death , hell
niul the grave in the mining camps.
The very thoughts of sudden death
made ono delirious. They had no idea
of the country. Thousands came who
, liad barely enough money to buy n
' ticket for the nearest mining camp.
f ' ' They thought that was sulllclont. If
' [ they could only roach the Kooky moiin-
' , laiti country , that was their only
thought. That if they had no money
i' ; they could soon dig itout of the ground ,
Hv } They knew not how lo dress for this
r \ ' : . . rhniato , they were not acclimated , and
L f < loading a life of exposure , Is it a won-

y now forgotten ? And yet , loved ones

again. Conditions have changed.
There are too many railroads , The
Itockv mountains now hardly has a
frontier. These who were in the rush
, of 1870 and 1880 will never forgot it. It
s made many millionaires. Their nainos
1 nro historical in the west , and some
have a national reputation. Rut think
of the poor follows who lost their lives.
They came not back. Their only record
is an unknown grave on the mountain
bido.
The dolorium of death.
Never did I so fully realize that the
ruling passion is strong in death as
when I witnessed death scones in the
milling camps. Many a poor fellow in
his rndo mountain homo has in the
delirium of death , struck it rich , just
before taking that long unknown trail
to a land where they say it is all golden.
I have often witnessed such
scenes. And , once seen , they are
never to bo forgotten. That mountain
cabin , with its rude furnishings , in the
dying hour , becomes a palace. Thereof
roof , with its roughly hewn rafters ,
changes to a gorgorous canopy. The
logs , appear like great bars of gold , and
tlio very carthorn Moor seems to shine
with the glitter of the precious treas
ure.
IT is A PASSION.
rjho passion that sends men to the
mountains and la the hope and inspira
tion that causes them to spend years of
toll and labor in search for sudden
wealth that same passion oft manifests
itself in the hour of death.
Oft have I hoard them say , when the
/ovor was on : "Hoys , wo have struck it
vich. " . But tears would come into the
oycs of the silent watchers in that
cabin , for they know it was death.
Ono of the saddest deaths 1 ever saw
vus , that -of a young man from near
( Jixloim , 111.Ho had joined the great
throng westward , bound , and none were
moro hopeful than ho. Wo brought
liiin home one night sick. His case nt
first was not considered borious , but ho
rapidly grow worse , and noon wo know
that ho could not live. Before his ill
ness ho hud often chatted with mo about
lib young -wlfo and baby back in llli-
, ipis. He would dig thousands out of
mountains , return homo rich and
and baby" would never want for
In his dying moments his
thoughts were the same. The passion
of his young life was still with him. In
his delirium and ravings ho had found
. mine. Fortune was his. And then
lie was homo again. Ho wits call ing his
wife oiidqarlng mimes. Ilo told her
liow ho had hunted for thu gold and sil
ver and had found it. Ho had dug it
, out of the ground. It was his ; it was
lier's too , and the Imhy's. And then the
jmor follow caught his baby up in his
arms , and in his wild fancy , played
with it. Ho was playing with the child's
curly locks. Called it pot names , and
then in his imagination , hugged the
child up to his bosom. Again ho lijmko
of his mine. Again ho played with the
curls of his baby ohild and was doad.
Wonder not that tears came into our
eyes as wo watched by his dying bod-
bidu.

The scone tolls its owns story.
Klvo of us were sick , all at the sumo
time in a western hotul. The writer
was ono of the number. Typhoid-pneu
monia was raging , and there was but
little hopu for any of us , and wo all
thought homo was a long way olT , At
thia Minus liotol was an old maid , nnd
lieforo taken nick , wo had boon unkind
enough to remark to some of the boys
that I' i h i were to wo a rarer on her
tipper lip she would soon have a good
pnoubtacho. Some of the boys seemed
i to think the same. Shu never heard it ,
never knew of what had been the topic
nf Hldo conversation. But thai woman
iivonged herself on us all a thousand
rr WAS aooi )
She know what wo most no'udod was
food nursing , and that old maid , whom
wo had all considered so hotnoly well
n mother and sister could hardly have
done more for us. She Vyoulu como
around to our rooms and say pleasant ,
cheery tilings and did n hundred little
thing * that inndo it almost scorn like
wo wore homo ng.iin. Well , the old
maid's fnco .somehow grew handsomer
nnd handsomer every dav until finally
wo all thbught she had the moat beauti
ful face in Colorado but it was a noble ,
womanly heart that was shining out
throng what wo had hitherto only con
sidered an unattractive face.
Faces are something , but hearts are
everything.
On a cot opposite mine was a man
named Sam Powell. I think he was
from Southern Kansas. He was getting
better , and his chance was coiisl'1"reu
good , but the rheumatism struc. . him
and his condition became critical. Our
friend , the old maid , knew the chances
wore against Sam's recovery , and tried
to cheer him up. Often from my own
sick bed have I seen her rubbing and
working with his rheumatic shoulders ,
and trying to cheer him up. And
somehow she seemed to know just what
wo wanted to eat.
Ono day Sam slowly turned over on
his cot facing me , and said :
"No matter whore that woman may
go , If I should ever go within 100 miles
of her I intend to go up to whore she
live s , oven if I do no more than look
into her yard. "
That night poor Sam had a relapse.
Ho became delirious ; talked of his
mines , and re-fought all the old battles
over of Sherman's inarch to the sea , for
he was an old soldier.
The next morning when our kind
n'tirsu came she found an empty cot.
Thus some of us wore more fortunate
than others. A woman's kind ministra
tions nnd nursing in the mining camps
In those days was a ( Jod-send , and we so
considered it. I could tell you of many
a noble woman's work in those days in
the mining cainpa. I could mention
names you would at once recognize as
those of ladies of highest culture , and
who have moved in the most aristocratic
circles In eastern cities , and tell of
their noble work. They have tfono to
rudn cabins and hospitals and boon like
a mother and sister to many a sick and
dying man. And the Sisters of Charity
God bless them their work will
never be forgotten.
But there was a little romance con
nected with our convalescing at that
mining camp hotel oao of the boys
who got well first , married the old
maid , our nurse , and the last I heard of
them they were living happily in the
San Juan country * Our "pard" had
sense enough to know who would make
him a good wife , and didn't let the op
portunity go by unimproved.
DKATII OK COI.ONKU H. I ) . llAUl'Klt.
It was in this same hotel that Colonel
E. I ) . Harper , of Pleasant Hill , Mo. ,
died. Ho was a prominent merchant
of that place , and had como west to bet
ter his fortune. When I was a moro
boy I had known him , and meeting him
out there in the Rocky mountain coun
try was a pleasant surprise. Wo wore
lobt in a snowstorm once , and wandered
around in the circle one always pre
scribes for himself under such circum
stancesuntil a rift in the clouds showed
us our bearings. I have climbed the
peaks of the Sanger dc Cristo range
with him , and though his locks were
gray , ho was as hopeful as a boy of eigh
teen. He was finally taken sick , and an
overdose of morphine that had been
prescribed put him into a quiet sleet )
from which ho never wakened. L. / .
Fcnton and D. V. Beetle , of Pleasant
TIlll. were with us at the time. Kvory
remedy jiossiblo. wtia used , but without
avail. .Sonio ofhik frio'nds in Colorado
and back in Missouri were anxious to
have the attending physician prose
cuted , but it was never done.
And that night wo hastily placed him
in Lho host oollln we could find and
summoned a teamster , and placed the
remains in the wagon. Colonel Harper
had been through the great oil excite
ments in Pennsylvania , and later tried
his luck at Short creek , but his dream
of wealth ended in those mountains.
Ills stepson , Johnnie Armstrong , was
seated with the driver , and slowly they
inado their way that night thiough the
mountains to the nearest railway sta
tion , which was thirty miles distant.
Wo soon lost sight of them in the dim
shadows of the mountains for Colonel
Harper was a true and loyal friend , and
we watched that lonely cortege as long
as tin * pale- starlight kept it in our view.
Saddened in heart and mind , wo started
for the hotel again , when I suddenly
felt a tap on the shoulder. Looking
around , I beheld a typical mountaineer
in dressund manner. The face \yas a
sad one , nnd yet there was such a kindly
look in that face that I stopped to hear
what lift would say. Ho was gettiinr
quite old , and his gray hair in heavy
locks hung down below his western
slouch hat. His hand trembled a little
as he motioned me to como with him ,
as he bald , " 1 wish to tell you a story. "
A fiTIlANOKSTOUY.
And what a strniitfo story it was , too ,
of the mountains. Ho and an only son
had lived alone in a cabin near the
crest of ono of the peaks of the Sangro
do Crislo. In a lonely spot they had
been digprintr for the hidden wealth.
That boy had been the pride of his
heart , and it had boon his hope that
ore his time should come that his boy
might bo rich. The son was taken
sick , and about the same time a great
storm was raging along the entire
range. Night and day he watched by
the bedside of his boy. It was many
miles then to the nearest habitation.
His son was too sick to leave. And if
ho should go for a physician the
chances were against his returning in
safety. The storm raged , but the old
man hardly know it. The winds
whistled through the great pine trees ,
and the drifting snow nearly buried his
cabin. Ho was compelled to keep a
lamp burning day and night. But.de-
splto his careful watching and nursing ,
the son died. But the storm still con
tinued. For three days ho was compelled -
polled to remain alone with the corpse
of his son , before the fury of the storm
had abated sufficient for him to vcnturo
to make- the nearest settlement.
And as ho told mo the story the form
of the old mountaineer often trembled
with emotion , for the death of his boa
yearn before had saddened his old ago.
And that story ! When ho told it , I
knew ho had soon us sending away the
body of Colonel Harper. The old
mountaineer1 * heart was full of sym
pathy. Do von understand his philoso
phy 'ind why ho told the story ?
Une of the noblest and best known
women in the Hooky mountain country
is Sinter lili/n , of Denver , a member of
an Episcopal sisterhood of Philadel
phia ,
A NOI1CJ ! WOMAN ,
For over twelve years she has hcen
engaged in charitable work in Denver ,
and at the county hospital in particular.
Many a homeless boy and unfortunate
girl mis she watched and prayed over
in their dying hour. I will relate one
incident that came under my own ob
servation , but it is only ono of hundreds
that could be told of her noble work ,
and in many an custom homo they
would say " ( Jed bless her , " did they
but know that an absent son had boon
so kindly .cared for by her iu his lust
hours.
Ono pleasant summer afternoon I
visited the hospital , and entering a
ward I found Sister Eliza engaged in
her mission .of mercy and love. A poor
boy from Massachusetts was dying nnd
she was praying with him. Poor fel
low , ho was a pnupor , far awny from his
New England home. But Sister Eliza
whs with him. Snored the scono. The
sunlight streamed in softly. But the
room seemed bright from another pic
ture , even though in ths > pros-
Once of death. The dying boy
was resting in the arms of his
attending nurse , and close by the cot
was scaled Sister Eliza , reading from
her blblo 'and Episcopal prayer book.
She rend of the beautiful mansions.
and then began to read an Episcopal
prayer. Somehow I had always thought
that Episcopal prayers were too stereo
typed. That they wore cold and mean
inglcss. But I had never hoard Slsto
Khzn read them. She has ono of these
noble , grand , motherly fncis that at
once wins your heart. Her noble face
never looked nobler than that aftor-
noon. It was a sad story , too. A letter
had como from an humble Massachu
setts home to the young man. It was
from mother and sister to son and
brother. It was full of tenderness nnd
lovo. but contained no money. They
had no money to send. They were very
poor , "but that is such a beautiful let-
tor. " bald Sister Eli/a to mo. The dying
boy looked over at her a moment , ns it
to say ho understood. She then left the
room a few moments , saying she would
return.
A UY1KO UKQUKST.
After her departure , the boy rallied a
moment , and turning to me , faintly
craspcd : "Thank Sister Eliza for me.
Tell her I could not speak while she
was in here reading to mo ' My head is
very heavy and I am fooling &o cold.
But tell her that I heard every word
that she said , and H did me good. She
has been so good nnd kind to me. and
you'll thank her , won't you , for meV
When Sister Ellx.a returned , the boy
was breathing his last , but he seemed to
catch the benediction in her noble face ,
for I had told her his request.
His was a pauper's grave , worse than
a nameless grave.
"Sihter Hlizn , " I said , as we left the
room , "will you do me a favor ? "
"If I can , " she answered.
"Will vou please give mo a sketch of
your life ? "
"No. But I do this work because 1
love it. I love to comfort the homeless
and sad. That Is my work and mis
sion. "
"Will you please tell mo your true
name ? "
"I am only known as Sister Eliza.1

A pprovcd Methods of Dovcl-
opIiiR thcr'UodjIncreasing the
AVindf and llarilciilnjj tlio
n. IJViAver Limbs.
St. Louis Gloho Democrat : These
who are not initlned into tlio mysteries
of the art have the mistaken idea that
training is a fearfully arduous and wear
ing ordeal , and wonder that men would
undertake such a task for the honor to
he derived from victory. In such they
are mistaken. To the athlete who likes
his work , training is an easy task , al
though it may be accompanied by a few
trilling privations , which to ono in
earnest , Would bo easily homo. The
trouble has been that too many athletes
have , during the intervals between sea
sons , dissipated so much that training
to them means little more than bring
ing their systems to a normal state by
ridding them of the alcohol with which
they have become saturated. After
this is once accomplished , the training
part is comparatively easy. Honest
training is no hard task , and is , in fact ,
n , pleasure , is .1 man never fools so well
as when in perfect condition. It will
prove interesting to give a code of rules
for training for a pugilist ,
a wrestler and a sprinter , and show how
the different forms differ from ono an
other. The formation of several new
rthlctic clubs lately in the city , and the
largo number of raw recruits , consequently
quently in the athletic ranks , will cause
the rules in training to bo carefully
perused , and since they can .bo relied
on , carefully followed.
There is one fundamental rule which
must be followed In all training , viz. , to
thoroughly cleanse the stomach with a
strong purgative. No matter how
strong and healthy a man may be , his
stomach requires thorough cleansing ,
and this forms the most unpleasant part
of the training. This result having
been accomplished , the athlete is ready
for work.
I'KIU'AUINO I'UOII.ISTS.
The pugilist's work will be taken up
first. Ho rises at an early hour ana
takes a smart walk of probably a mile or
moro before breakfast. This gives him
a good , sharp appetite and lills him
with a relish for the light broaicfast of a
chop or a 'hliiib ' of hoof which follows.
Oatmeal mush' is also nutritious and
strengthening. After breakfast a suit
of heavy die-thing is put on and a pair of
heavy shobs nro added. Some men
oven use shops with lead in thorn in
order to streng.then the lefjs. If a man
is very fat ami is required to get a largo
amount of llesh oil' he should put _ on the
heaviest kind'bT clothing , while a strip
of flannel tied tightly across the stomach
ach will servo to reduce that
member. Thou a long walk and
jog followss- should not bo too long ,
however , as a wearing journey is bound
to bring a reaction in the shape of a
loss of vital energy and staleno.ss , which
must bo avoided1 above all things. It is
filr hotter tb coH'er n small distance at a
good lively trpjthan a longer one : it n
snail-like' paco. The fast work draws
out the perspiration and also hardens
muscles of the legs. Once back at the
trainiiitr quarters the damp clothes
should bo discarded as rapidly as posbi-
blo , and the skin rubbed downfir.it with
roujjh towels so as to thoroughly dry the
surface , then with the bare haiids. and
finally with alcohol or homo other in
gredient. A good course , too , and one
which is followed by many trainers , is
to wash the athlete thoroughly with
tepid salt , water bofpru'rubbiiig him
down. , Warm water is used so as not
to close the pores of the skin _ , which
have been opened by the violent exor
cise of running. When the rubbing
down process has been completed , and
it should bo done most thoroughly , as
moro suporlluous llesh can bo rubbed oil'
than run olT , the athlete is pretty tired.
Ho is then wrapped in warm blankets
and allowed to } io to bed until dinner
time. Good substantial food should betaken
taken for dinner , and ono should not
stint himself , although not , of course ,
play the glutton.
HEAIITY EATING KNCOtJUAOED.
The old English idea of starving an
alhloto in training has long since been
exploded. It has the elToct of weaken
ing a man when ho needs his strength
moro than anything olso. If one ro-
ruires [ a stimulant , a bottle of Bass' ale
is the proper thing It is very nourish
ing and at the same time strengthening.
After dinner comes the gymnasium
work. The athlete strips and spends a
good , long time in pounding the foot
ball suspended from the coiling. This
answers a double purpose. It not only
serves to strengthen the muscles of the
arm and stomach , but it loosens the
shoulder muscles , thus giving free
action and enabling the lighter to strike
a clean , hard blow , free from any sus
picion of muscle binding. It also helps
the wind , as good , hard work in front of
a football is not so easy as people would
imagine. This work finished , the rub
bing down process is nj iiin gone
tnrough with , and then the pug dons
his clothes and starts for a stroll before
supper. After this meal , which should
bo a frugal ono , work is over for the
day , and the athlete seeks his couch
with undisguised satisfaction. This
work is continued until a short lime
before the ll ht is to take place , and
then gradually lessoned. It is there
fore desirable thai a man should be
brought a few'pounds ' below the ( light
ing woigbt so'as to allow for the gain
consequent u on a let-up in his word.
The minor-dotfillfl , such as hardening ,
etc. , are of , hut small importance , and
will nbt ho.pnlorod , into hero.
11UMJ8 KOK WKKSTLKKS.
The rules for training for a contest at
wrestling cannot bo hotter described
than by dosl'ribing the training process
of William .Nfuhloon , who is probably
the king of ( Jj'aJco-Ronmii wrestlers of
the present day. Muldoon , while huro
last weekitjpol < o as follows on the sub
ject :
"I liavo 'inyown ideas on the subject
of training , ' , and , while they may differ
from others' , Ihavo found them effective
when put to' ' practical use. When
training for a content , I rise very early
and take a short walk before breakfast.
After that meal is over I put on heavy
clothing and start out for a breather. I
run about three miles , say a miio and a
half out and back , acd gout a good paco.
I am not an advocate of long and tedi
ous travels. I eeo by the cablegrams
from Europe that Sullivan is doing his
twenty miles a day , I don't believe in
that. If Sullivan really is doing that
amount of work ho will wear away some
of that wonderful strength of his and go
into the ring with Mitchell a stale man ,
When I return after my run I nm
thoroughly rubbed down with
rough towels. After thia I
dross'and lounge around until dinner
timo. After the noonday meal I take a
short sU'oll , and 'then returning strip
and prepare for practice. 1 always
make-It a practice1 to have some ono
near mo who is a jir'btty clever wrestler ,
and for quite a tlmo in the afternoon I
wrestle with him. This sor'vos a double
purpose. It noi only tends to harden
my muscles and reduce llosh. but gives
mo the practice I need , and is practical
training which I have always been in
favor of. This completes my day's
work , and , after a light supper , I retire
early.
Now , to the rules for a sprinter. As
all the sprinters of St. Louis are busi
ness men , who have to train during
their leisure hours , so as not to inter
fere with their regular work , a course
will ho mapped out by which they can
got Into shape. This' will prove more
valuable for the local aspirants to ath
letic honors than a code of rules de
signed for these who mnko a llvine by
their abilities as sprinters , and can
give their entire time to getting into
condition. After the inevitable cleans
ing of the stomach , an athlete should
rest for a few days , so ns not to weaken
himself. After that the regular rou
tine begins. Ho should make it a point
to rise early , and , putting on a rough
suit , take a thort walk before break
fast. Returning , ho should thoroughly
rub down , and then put on warm ,
dry clothing. If possible , ho should
take a run in the morning. In beginning -
ginning , ho should wear very heavy
clothing , so as to rid himself of all su
porlluous tlcsh , and It is also advisable
to wear heavy shoos as they have a ten
dency to harden the legs and at the
same time protect the feet from sore4
ness. In beginning , but a abort dis
tance should bo run , say ono or two
miles , and that at a very slow gait.
Fast work in the beginning will result
in strained muscles and consequent
sorencsH.
KXKKCISK IN" MODERATION :
Too many beginners make this fatal
mistake. The first day out thov feel
strong enough to do wonders. The re
sult is that they smile at the slow work
of the older and moro experienced men ,
nnd taunt them when they refuse to
spurt with them. The novice does a
vast amount of work , and when ho
leaves the grounds feels "lino" and is
in raptures. The next morning , when
ho rises from bed , ho is surprised to
find himself so sore that ho can hardly
stand. He becomes disgusted and his
career as a sport lasts just one day. By
slow work in the beginning all sore
ness is avoided , The muscles are hard
ened by gradual process and are
ready for hard work when the time
comes. After his work Is once completed
the runner should leave the track at
once and rid himself of his wet clothing.
Too many make the fatal mistake of
standing around after work , the result
being colds and consequent soreness.
After being thoroughly rubbed down
with alcohol , highwines or some other
ingredient , ono should dross rapidly and
take a short walk. &o as to keep the
muscles from stift'cning. In the after
noon the same process should bo under
gone. After three weeks of this kind
of work ono is fit for fast work , and the
heavy clothing and shoos may bo dis
carded lor a light athletic suit and spik
ed shoos. If the runner is practicing
for 100 yards ho should first move a short
distance easily , so as to loosen the mus
cles , and then run his distance atajjood
strong gait. Then should follow prac
tice at starting , as in sprinting a fust
sartor always has an advantage. In
Btarting.ii man should first take an easy
ppsition.with tlio loft well forward of the
right , so as to find just what "reach" ho
has ; then the position of each foot
should bo marked and holes scraped in
track in those places. The holes give
one a purchase to spring from , and also
permit a firmer footing while waiting
for the pistol shot. Tlio usual form of
starting now in vogue is as follows :
The starter first tells the men "to get
on their marks , ' ' when they bland at
ea c in their places , the second com
mand is to "got sot , " when the athlete
lowers his body with the most of his
wnight resting on his forward foot ,
although the back foot should bo firm seas
as to be capable of a good spring. Then
follows the pistol shotand the race is on.
In hprintring from the mark the back
foot should come forward and take the
first stop. The eastern amateurs are
now effecting what is called the "dab , "
that is a short stop with the forward
foot when the pistol cracks. This , how
ever , has not boon adopted by the best
men. Botluino , Hutchins and others
still maintaining thool'd style.
Prehistoric California.
San Francisco Call : Ambitious students -
dents of science can benefit by taking a
hint from the paper written by Dr.
Yntcs , which was road at the last meet
ing of the Historical Society , on ' 'Pro-
historic California. " The doctor assorts
as a fact that some of the very oldest
relics of prehistoric times are to bo
found in this state. From the fact that
fo.ssll remains are found under 1.500 feet
of lava in Tuclumno county , he infers
that there was dry land and life in Cali
fornia before tlio great volcanic out
break which covered most of the Pacific
slope with porphyry- , and which ovcnt-
fuliy , combining with earthquake move
ments , tilted the Rocky mountain chain
into the shape it boars , and was acces
sory to the filling of its crevices with
mineral matter. These remains com
prise thorio of several animals now in
existence , such as man , and the plo-
phant , and likewise a variety of extinct
creatures , such as the mastodon and
the uncouth pachyderms which are
only known by their fossil skeletons.
Those speculations are of marked in
terest as tending to throw light on the
antiquity of the nice. It is only of late
years that the possibility of man having
having through ono if not two glacial
periods has boon admitted. If it can bo
proved beyond question that fossil re
mains of human beings have boon
found midor the lava of Table Moun
tain , we shall to admit that he existed
prior to and possibly throughout the
volcanic period. His existence during
that period might bo explained on a
theory of wholesale migrations of pee
ple. Still the picture which such scien
tific theories conjure to the mind is ap-
ralling. The volcanoes of the volcanic
period were nothing like the volcanoes
of to-day. Their craters extended for
miles in length. They were great rifs
in a mountain chain which poured out
unceasingly Hoods of molten matter ,
and fed great lakes of seething firo.
This overflow lasted for years , perhaps
for conturlos , and during the whole of
this period it must have boon impossl-
for life to exist within certain distance
of the eruption. How enormous a ter
ritory it covered may bo inferred from
the fact that South park , In Colorado ,
shows signs of having at ono lime been
a burning lake. The theory of a single
creation involves the belief that man
kind flud from the volcanic district and
watched the awful spectacle from afar.
Dr. Yates indulges in some specula
tion with regard to the prohibtorio races
of California. Ho infers , from the absence -
sonco of mounds nnd of such works of
fortification us wo find truces of in Ari
zona and the Mississippi vulloy , that
they were a peaceful race , not given to
war on their neighbors. If &o , they
must have been very different people
fr im the Aztecs and Toltocs , who car
ried fire and sword into Mexico , nnd
whoso companions raised the massive
structures in Central America of which
the Lorillard expedition explored the
ruins. But the science of urchiclogy
will have to make moro progress before
wo can feel sure of characteristics .
of the races that were contemporaneous
with the eavo-dwollors of Europe.
Still , every little helps. Kvory ax
head tolls its story. Every obsidian
spear head raises the problem whether
it manufactured by n rndo barbar
ian to murder his too , or to slay the
mammoth iti the marsh. The bones of
men when exposed to the air molder
into dust , ami give no slgn. But where-
over mankind has boon , ho has inndo
his mark on some surface which retains
it ; to read suchmarks aright is ns noble
a pursuit as can etigagu the attention of
the student.
