ee RUINS OF ANCIENT CITIES. The Stranze Viings Found by a Sur- veying Party in New Mexico. diagonal M promise modern ex} remurkable i tofore been account of their tween the fourth parallels their intersection degree of “106th surveying with rae longitude, the parties have passed along a lava flow which, by the local population, is called the molpais, which is probably the most unique of its kindin Ameri- ca. It consists of a sea of molton black glas of cooling in ragged tastic shap agitated at the moment of fan- s. These lava waves or waves ridges ure from ten to twelve feet high with combing cres and the whole formation presents the ap- pearance of having been made at a comparatively modern period. This lava flow is about forty miles long from to southwest and from one to ten miles wide. It can be crossed at two places, and its narrow portion, wherein process of time with infinite labor and trouble two different and difficult trails have been found. Off from these trails the whole formation is impassable owing to the extremely jagged and sharp character of the which cuts to pieces everything which it comes into contact with. At the extreme northern end of this lava flow is the crater from which all of this molten mass has It is one of the points that can be ape proached to be cir- cular basin 40 feet and 30 feet decp, the sides of which are composed of the same lava as the floor itself. For miles on all sides of this lava flow the country is the most desolate that can be imagined. It has been literally burned up. It of fine white ashes to any depth which, so far, has been dug down. To the north of the lava flow, and lying ina country equally desolate and arid, the surveyors have come upon the of Gran known already to the early Spanish explorers under Coronado, but which have been visited by white men less often even than the mysterious ruins of Palenque, in Central America. Only a few people at Socorro and White Oaks have been at Gran Guivera be- cause it is at present forty miles from water. The surveyors found the ruins to be of gigantic stone buildings made in the most substan- tial manner and of grand propor- tions. One of them was four acres in extent. All indications around the ruins point to the existence here at one time of a dense population. No legend of any kind exists as to how this great city was destroyed or when it was abandoned. One of the engineers attached to the surveying expedition advances the theory that Gran Guivera was in existence and abundantly supplied with water at the time the terrific voleanie eruption took place which formed the lava flew or molpais; that the heat gene- rated destroyed the whole country and permanently dried up its water supply, and that thus the inhabitants were forced to abandon it and the country generally. The few Mexicans scattered through this country herding their small goat herds still have a tra- dition that untold treasures are secreted under these ruins, and a few years ago an expedition of adventur- ers left Socorro, N. M., for the pur- pose of digging for this treasure. They stayed at Gran Guivera and hunted until their water gave out and then returned unsuccessful and disheartened. The student of Mexi- can history will remember that Gran Guivera was the city in search of which the expedition of Coronado started from Old Mexico in 1540.
