At one clump of these ruing not less than forty metate or millstones can be counted, nearly all broken, only two having been found whole, They were used for grinding corn and other food substances. The usual stone selected was a quartzi boulder, two feet long by one wide, and six to ten inches thick, The grinding was done with a stone of similar character, four mches wide by eight long, and one inch thick. This was moved back and forth lengthwise of the larger stone until a groove was formed from five to ten inches wide, deeper in the middle than at the ends. In seme instances this groove was worn down to the depth of eight inches, showing long use, These, and the fact of finding fiurgc quantities of charred corn, suggested the name agricultural, in contradistinction to the Montezuma ruins, which were probably occupied by a stock-raising community, as but very few, if any, metate siones can be found. Alu] be- sides the infrequency of rain and the scarcity of running water, these would better fit the country for stock. The following articles have been unearthed from the Mancos ruins, the most of which can be seen in collection here; mine whole pieces of pottery; two metate stones, with grinders; one turquoise bead; three 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.” We reached Pegasus spring (the old Mitch- ell place) about ten o'clock. The spring breaks out from under the rocks at the right hand of McElmo 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 as we larger children. A vein of coal | crops out some three hundred yards above the spring; and our first ruin is built almost above the spring on a bare rock. It was a circular building twenty-eight feetin diameter, with walls flve 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 are dressed to the curva- ture of the building. We did not take time to excavate here and found no relics of interest, We 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. Here we 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, Tho mound fornied 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 re- quired to penetrate this wall, which was nearly four feet thick and laid m mortar. No open space was found i side, it being completely filled the rubbish of the upper stories— rock, mortar, broke cedar timbers, ete.” We did not have time to geb down to the floor, consequently found no relics, At 10 o'clock we started back, taking a more northerly and circuitous route, to visit the last and what proved the most interesting ruin in the valley. It sundown when we reached it. No living water is known here nearer than twelve or fif- teen miles. We had hauled water for our own use, and the resent rains had left enough in the dry washes for our stock, MOKE RUINS. There are quite a number of ruins but the two hundred roomed house is the princi- pal one, and all that is necessary to describe. The debris of the fallen walls of this building forins a mound 120 fect long by 90 feet wide and 18 feet high, and stands out on the level | valley half a mile from the surround- 2 llls, Portions of the outer and ivision walls, tlooring and ceiling timbers, ean be seen cropping out all | Rey. | over this debris mound | still better, two rooms | the ceiling or upper floox 8o well preserved by a glazed coating (probubly formed F that it still supports its im- wiense load of eight fect of rock and mortar, which is, no doubt, the fallen | walls of two at leasttwostories above | these preserved roows waking thre stories in all.

This 200-roomed house is situated at the head of the Montezuma valley, and is about fifteen miles in a north. | west course from the Mancos. The | rock used in the construction of the building were transported over half o mile, and where their water nuppl\ came from is a question, C. M. Vers. Nevada Jurors. Last night a number of men were sitting in front of the Ormsby housc discussing the big mining suit in Eu reka betweon the Richmond and Albion. Gen. Kittrell, W. W, Bishop, Sinc Barnes, Juhnny Moore, and others were interesting the crowd with recitals of the suits they had seen Bishop and Kittrell insisted that of late years the atmosphere of the courts had been purer than in the earlier days. “That is,” and weaker; cost less than formerly.” Both the lawyers agreed that coin | lad a potent influence. When the law was all on their side and the jury | on the other, they could only explain |t it on a coin hypothesis, At this pomt an old grizzly-bearded | man who had been lmtemng 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 Ray- mond & Ely suit with the Hermes in Pioche.” ““Were you in town?” “‘Well, rather; I traveled four hun- dred miles on a mule to get to the jury box. I struck the town about 6 o'clock at night, and, walking into the lead bar-room, mqmred if the suit had begun, Inside of half an houra man ceme up and asked me what my name was. He wrote it down on his shirt cuff, and then he smd: ‘Pard, if you want to stay and see the suit, let me see you through on your ex- penses;’ and he handed me $500, re- marking that he thought the R. & E. had the bulge on thelaw. I said that 1 thought that myself, and then I sauntered off. In about an hour a man came to me and told me I was drawn on the jury. I said I didn’t mind, and agreed to stand in. About 9 o'clock a man tapped me on the arm and handed me $500, ruumrkmg that the Hermes had u.bout all the law and facts on their side that was necessary. He thought I might need a little money for expenses, Of course I took the money, he seemed so anx- ious to get rid of it, and then I slip- ped into a back room, put on a pair of false side-whiskers, a thin silk duster Thad been carrying under my coat, and I was a changed man. By 10 o'clock I was on a good horse that I paid £300 for, and started off on a prospecting trip. I couldn't bear the idea of holding the scales of justice in a case like that.

Last evening 1 driving from Luke Tahoe to Carson, he experienced the first upset of his life: He left the lake half an hour behind time (the steamer being delayed in crossing the lake by a heavy wind); and was driving at a very rapid rate when the mishap oc- curred, He had aboard Lis coach as passen- twelve adults aud two children ght adults were on top of the couch and the rest with the childven inside Among the passengers were ex-At- daught Prof. Jack Devens and Walker Hallman, of this city. The upset occurréil at a rough place just this sid the Miss torney Gen, and snmmit n the coach went over. Hank held to the lines like grim death, and, though going at rapid gait, stopped {he team almost i stantly, the coach not moy- ing a foot after it went over As Hank 1ose from mother earth he rpat out a mouthful of dust and scmarked, “That's the first time it ever happened to me.” Rati iy Gen. Devens gaid to his daughter. ,There, you'vealways wanted to lmvu a ride with Hank Monk—now you've had it! In five minutes’ time Hank again had his coach right side up and was spinning down the mountain, but not gayly. He felt sore. Hesaid he once pset a bullion wagon, with no one aboard, but never before in his life had he upset a enger coach. The only thing that happened to at all console him was the fact that he got through to Carson “‘on time,” as DAY, said Barnes, ‘‘thinner| in other \umlu, jurors | 9 2o ‘\U(Il'.\"l' 1481, i landed Horace Greeley I lacerville, \t Th and the fact| that no one was hurt except a few ery slight bruises), all he had ‘:”,' which to salve his wounded | { His passengers rather enjoyed the rafter it was all over, and to th of their lives will pride then es on having participated in Ha upset.
