Beckley did great work with the stick and closed the game with a home run drive over right field fence. Powers’ umpiring was the worst ever scen here.

After two men were out, Beckley made a double to center. Crooks was given a base on balls and Burch hit safe to right, bringing Crooks in. Herr hit over short and Crooks seored. Annis threw wild to third to catch Burch and the latter made a dash for the late.

Gladstone, Dave Knufman, Andy Haas, Neu Meyer and Caln of the Metropolitan club have for the past nine weeks —cherished the idea that they could_wipe up the carth with a nine from the Omaha_athletic club composed of Messrs. Clark, Wagner, Roeder, M. Oberfelder, Seligman, Stonchill, Brysen, Stoman aud Khodes. But at this writing their opinion is reversed, for a contest on the bottoms yesterday developed the fact, that aithough the former play & passably fair game the latter arc the champions on the diamond. To give a detailed account of each mning would require an extra edition, but the following synopsis will convey a very good 1dea of the contest: The “Mots' came to_bat and eight men scored on three base hits following in quick ssion, which made Roeder, who had previous to the contest bet a quarter that his side would win, very tired. Clark at first howled with pain as he saw the bail go sail- ing over a car of timber and Wagner danced a can-can as his offorts to jump ninetoen foet in the air to catch a ball proyed futile. When the Athletics came in and only made one run Humberger and Cohn fell on one another’s necks and wept for joy, while Kaufman rushed up to Tiue BEe reporter who was scoring and inquired how the game stood. On being told the result he gave the seribe a whole box of cigars, In the second mning the “Mets" made two runs and their opponents four, and little Mr. Cohn sat_down in left field and renthis raiment. But he had to continue the renting ocegs, for in the third the Athletics scorod three and shut the “Mets” out. In the fourth the “Mets” made two while the Athletics piled up nine, and young Bry- son, who made one of the scores, smiled 5o audibly that officer Chamberlain, from the Union Pacific depot came over to sce what the riot was about, In the fifth Roeder bursted his suspenders and Seligman lost his right garter, and in consequence the “Mets” mado five runs, all home runs, while the Athletics were shut made Roeder hotter than cver, he fired the balls over the plate was a caution, but alas, the ‘“Mets” scored five times while the Athletics only made four. But oh, my! in theseventh the “Mets” wore again shut outand their opponents scored three. At the end of the flrst half of the ninth the score was a tie. Rhodes of the Athletics made a three bagger and scored on a home run by Clark, which won the game. The nine little men whose names are first quoted in this item, sadly gathered up their little and balls and meandered homeward, while nine others capered around on the grass for Joy.

The Crane Bros. and Metz Bros., teams of the City league, played a rattling game at South Omaha yesterday afternoon. The game opened with the Metz Bros. at bat. Baldwin struck a two-bagger, followed by Becket with a base hit, assisting Baldwin to get to second. Everything seemed favorable for securing a number of runs, when Gillen and Croft both struck out, followed by Hart, who struck a grounder to short and was put out at first, retiring the side. In the Crane Bros'. half Lawson and Kimes struck out. artz followed with a base hit, followed by Geist with a fly to pitcher, who collided with first, Eggleston was retired on a foul tip, Metz, in the second inning were retired in one, two, three orden.

In the t half of the fourth inning Crane Bros. secured another tally. ‘The game at this point looked very much like o shut out for the Motz' Bros., who, however, succceded in the seventh inning in scoring two runs by Croft batting a grounder to third, who made a wild throw to first allowing Croft to secure second.

The Conference Creates a Species of Me thodist Nuns. A TUG OF WAR WITH TAYLOR. Pastoral Time Limit Lengthened to Five Yoars—The Great Contest for Episcopal Honors—Two of the Successful Candidates. The Methodist Conference. NEw York, May 27.—[Special to Tar Bre,|—The conference, these last few days, has been making up for lost time. A week ago 1t had scarcely done anything except pull itself together, barring the initial act of tearing itseif to pieces, so to speak, by the exclusion of the women. This week, how- ever, it has attended to business with an energy that is both commendable and un- usual, If ever before in the history of the church so many sweeping changes were ef- fected in so short a time, the oldest inhab- itant certainly fails to remember it. Con- sidering, too, that, concurrently with the settlement of these weighty matters of legis- lation, the conference has olected its now bishops, the week becomes not merely re- markable, but absolutely without its parallel in Methodist annals. First came the grafting into the old stemn of the church of an entirely new branch in- tended for the special benefit of the good sisters, This is the Order of Deaconesses. The duties of those belonging to this order will be declared by the new disciples to be “to minister to the poor, to visit the sick, seck the wandering, comfort the sorrowing, save the sinning, and relinquishing wholly all other pursuits, devote themselves in a gen- eral way to such forms of christian labor as may be suited to their abilities.” They will differ from nuns in two essential particulars, namely: that no vow will be taken, and that their religious labors can at any time be re- linquished. It is provided, however, that they may dwell together in homes, and 1t is probable that, as a means - of identification, they will . wear somo peculiar garb, possibly the plain gowns and big somber bonnets the good Methodist sisters used- to wear when the church taught that flowérs and flounces were inventions of the wicked one. Boards ap- pointed by the annual conference are to have supervision of these devoted women, and all who are accepted will ‘receiyo):a licause or certificate; provided, however, as. the discipline will say, that “no person shall re- ceive such certificate until she has served a probation of two years of continuous service, and shall be over twenty-five_ years of age.” This is a novel feature. iti the economy of Methodism, and some will Took askance at it. But the conference, evidently, from the hearty applause bestowed upon the senti- ment, and from the demadd made for its repetition, took the view held out by Dr. Thoburn, of India, the prime champion of tho movement, when he said that he seemed to hear, in the coming footsteps of the deacon- esses, “the tread of angel's feet,” and that he believed God was about to raise up an army of women workers such as had never been dreamed of. S Another very importaut action on the part of the conference was its scttlement of the much controverted question, touching the episcopal status of Bishop Taylor, The con- tention on the part of the other bishops, and of the missionary board, had boen, that, as he was elected a missionary bishop, he was not a full episcopate, but was only a sort of fledgling, with down where his wings onght to be, and that, consequently, he must be paid, not out of the regular episcopal fund, but out of the money given by thechurch for missionary purposes. That, too, which strengthened this view, was the fact that all former missionary bishops had been content to hold this subordinate position, and to get their salary from the gource indicated. But .Taylor begged to disséut; . and, so did that vast and enthusiastic following which regards him as one of the greftest of modern heroes, and the conference has j1ist . emerged from the tug of waron this,issue. | Desper- ate efforts were made to keep the status of a missionary bishop where 1t had formerly stood, but they were unavailing, _gor the final action makes Bishop Taylor as #0lly a-bishop as any of the others, and qu‘ him_his pay from the same source, His epistopél powers, however, are still hmited to Africa Alri- can work, and it is probahle that, thoughr his salary in future will come froin the episcopal fund, his back pay of 812,000, if he ever gets it, will have to come from the. source where the sum is still held to his credit, namely, the missionary treasury. But far more important than cither of these was the advanced ground taken on lay rep- resentation. Four years ago a commission was appointed to consider and report whether or not lay representation should be intro- duced into the annual conferences, and also whether the number of laymen in the general conference might not with an_advantage be be ine ed. The report was that the laity was not needed in the anunual bodies, but that in this quadrennial body theflr represen- tation ought to be cqual to that of the min- isters. Upon the first point general acquie- scence was obtained, leaving the law just as it was, but the action on the latter pojut pro- vides for a radical change. ‘The law at present is that no -sunual con- ferencecan send to this body more than two laymen, and that those conferences which are entitled to only one ministerial delegate, send but one from the laity. - Henee, the lay- men constitute less than one-thied the entire delegation, and are, of course, ak @ corre- sponding disadvantage when the yoting oc- curs, This report, however, proposed to equalize the thing, and it was only to be ex- pected that the ministers would, at first. look upon such an abridgement of their privileges with fave Just as natural was it, too, that the majority of the laymen should be in the afirmative on the question. There was quite a tussele, and on a mo- tion to put off the matter for eight years, the laymen, by the saving pro- vision of a vote by orders, tied the ministers, But the session being then euded by limita- tion of time, the opposing forces slept on their muskets for a night, and then, meta- phorically, smoked the pipé of peace together, the final 'result being that the proposal to make the representation of the laity equal to that of the clergy goes to the annual confer- ences, and that, if these bodies favor it by a 'fourths vote, laymen may be elected »w basls, and then, the ensuing gen- eral conference concurring by a two-thivds majority, those thus elected will be admitted to that body, and the new era in Methodist legislation be thus fully mnaugurated, Greatest of all, however, is the change us to the time limit. Originally there was uno time limit in the Methoaist Episcopal church. though there was_an unwritten law that all the preachers should change frequently. Many years ago, so Dr. Buckley said yester- ,a ' man named Silas Stubbins got posses i of a snug pastoral berth in Brooklyn, and in spite of bishops and elders, if not’ of the people, insisted on keeping it until his term of service had reached the unprece- ted length of four years. This was the last straw, and to guard against the repeti tion of such an offcuse, the pastoral limit wus then fixed at t ars. Twenty-four years ago it was extended to three years. This was done with fear and trembling, It was a risky experizent, many thought, and there are those at this day who hold that it was a mistake, and who, far from extending the limit, would like to shorten it. It is evi- dent, though, that these are in a small minor- ity, and are so far bebind in their thiugs, that there hope of th ing up with the procession. For a long time the progressives of the chureh have clamored for a change. Mauy have felt that the limit should be removed altogether, leaving Providence to settle mat tors which are now determined solely by the almanac. The majority, however, have been willing that there should still be a lumit, but have sted on an extension. The argu weuts of these reformers is fawiliar. Noth- 17 new was said in the debate, but the old points were presented with new force aud by some new voices. It was problematical at her the extension would be for four The report of the cowmittee swmended four, but & uwunority report » said five, that number being finally adopted, though after a sev and m one sense, a rathor close contest. 1A motion to lay the minority report on the table was voted down by gainat 167. The motion to ac- cept fivo as a substitute for four was sus tained by a vote of 251 to 150. Still, how ever, was the battfd continued. The fight- g, too, was led bg'the laymen, and for a timo, it was teared ‘that the laity would do- feat the movementy: it i The motion .mwtémm adopt the five year imit. § The call for ayes fnd noes was not sus- taned, but the call bya layman for a vote by orders was sustanimed, as also was acall from the same sourees for the ayes and noes of the two orders. The situation now was critical, for, howevgr Llarge the ministerial vote in 'favor of an.exteusion, if the laymen should cast one vote againat it, or should como to a tie, the measure would fail. Hap- pily, though, this result was obviated, the final vote which makes it possible for Metho- dist ministers to remain_five years in one charge, and after being absent five years to #0 back to the samo charge for another five year term—one of tho very greatestinno- vations Mothodist has aliowed in half a century—standing: Laymen for, 8; against, 65; ministors for, 208; against, 66, n the Methodist Iipiscopal church sonth the pastoral term is four years, as it is, also, in the Methodist church ‘of Cauada. Thus this church has seon euch of these bodics, so to speak, and has gone them one betfer, whatever that may mean. 1t is safe to antici- pate, too, that not long hence a further ox- nsion will be granted. Indeed, many see in this action, on the part of the prosent con- ference, a sure augury of tho adoption by Methodism before long of & pastoral term which will be practically without limit, The election of bishops which proceeded concurrently with this mighty struggle to ex- tend the pastoral limit, was itself such a con- test as the church never beheld before, and was witnessed, t0o, by a vast audience whose interest could scarcely have been excelled by even that of a Roman audience looking down upon a life and death struggle of gladiators, What made the contestso long and severe was the new rule, which required a two thirds majority to elect. It was fully anticipated that an effort would be made to reconsider that rule, and sure enough, just as the fray was about to begin, & colored delegate so moved. But the motion was laid on the table s0 quickly, and by such a tremendous vote, that it almost made the dark delegate look pale, and later on this operation was re- peated, though the proposal came then from a white man, By a singular coincidence the chair was occupied on tho first day of this struggle by two bishops, who, four years ago, were on the anxious seat themselves, Bishop Fow- ler, who presided at night, must have had vivid recollections of his ¢lose raceat the last conference with Dr. Vincent, when the latter almost tied him for the position to which both now have been promoted. This, perhaps, accounted for his apparent nervous: ness in the chair; but he did a noble thing on Tuesday night when, in_announcing the re- sult of tho third bailot, he declared himself “happy to say that John H. Vincent and J, N. Pitzgerald had been elccted bishops of the church.” The opening devotions of the day on which the elections bogan, strange as it may scem, were tinged with humor. Sixteen years ago Bishop Foster, then' only a plain ‘minister, made the opening prayer on election day, and he prayed so fervently for the Lord to give them God-made instead of mad-made bish- ops, that the conference concluded he must Dbe & God-made bishop himself, and, with seven other good moy ‘and true, elected him, Dr. Olmstead, of the Wyoming conference, led the devotions tljs time, and Dr. Hunter, of Illinois, who a few 'days before had de- nounced combinations for the episcopacy, Was 80 anxious to pray over the election that he got down on his knges when the scripture lesson began and kept down until the last amen was said. Dr. 'Olmstead prayed not only for those to be, élected, but for those who would be disappointed. He was very anxious, he said, that these should not losc all hope, for, as he told them in his address to the throne of grace, “they might still be saved, might doa little’ good in the world, and might gev to heaven oven, thongh they were not elected to thejepiscopacy.” That there were mauy who would have to got along as best thdy could on consola- tions of the description so kindly thrown out in this opening, praver, was made ovi dent by the first ballot, for, 'while only fi bishops were asked fof, no less than eighty were voted for. Twenty-eight received one vote each, eight received two each, six three each, eleven from four to nine cach, and eight between ten and seventeen cach, while those who got thirty and over were the fol- lowing: J. H. Vincent, 215; J. N. Fitagerald. D. A. Goodsell, 15%; J. P. Newman, 156} W. Joyce, 145} C.' H. Payne, 130; J. M. King, 123;'E. Cranston, 128: A. J. 'Kynett, 15; . W. Hamilton, 86} S. ¥. Upnam, 60; J. R , 47; C. C. M'Cabe, 3 Al Martin, 33; T. B! ; 1. 0. Peck. 80. Two hundred and ninety-six being neces- sary to a choice no one was elected on this ballot, nor did any one get in on the nex though the next did put the leaders consider- able forward, by so much, of course weeding out those who had started weak. This ballot made it evident that the contest would rest with Vincent, Fitzgeruld, Newman, Goodsell, Joyce, Cranston, Payne ana Butiz, and the next ballot put’ in Vincent and Fitzgerald, the former getting 811 votes and the latter 310, leaving the others little changed as to their relative positions. ‘There was no election on the fourth ballot, but Dr. Joyeo led, and Dr, Buttz dropped down so much as to beout of the race, the fifth ballot putting Dr. Joyce in by a_vote of 326, the largést any bishop ever received.

The author of the mensure has been feeling the pulse of thoe lower branch of congress, and gives it as his best judgment that it will become a law. Ho says he does not seo how any representative in congress can refuse to support the meas- ure, because there is not a single congres- sional district that will not get some build- ings by it, and that votes against the propo- sition will be votes against local interests, The oxpenditures for the buildings will run from $15,000 vpward, and some of the con- gressional districts will get ecight or ten buildings worth $400,000 or $500,000. This means the expenditure of that much money for labor and materials, and local interest in the Dbill is being agitated throughout the country. President Cleveland’s peculiar and high standard of requisities of cities to enable them to be entitled to a foderal building under the present arrangement of legislation, has given almost universal dissatisfaction, and while some of the cities which have been clamoring for buildings worth from $75,000 to $100,000 will only get structures worth from $22,000 to 0,000 under the Paddock bill, they are willing to accept the cheaper struc- tures rather than stay out of the benefit of them during the career of the present presi- dent. The bill will undoubtedly be amended 80 a8 to raise the limit of cost of buildings before it is finally acted upon by both houses The more the proposition has been agitate the greater have become the ideas ot liberalityd of members in both houses. s Democratic members of the house say tho consideration of the tariff bill under the five- minute rule will be resumed with great carn- estness, and that extraordinary efforts will be made to finally dispose of it by the end of June, so that adjournment may be had before August. An effort will be made after the de- bate under the five-minute rule has run a week or two to dispose of ‘proposed amend- ments by party caucuses, so that the debate will be curtailed, otherwise it would be al- most limitless. A man can speak a hundred times in a day under the five-mizute rule if he is sufiiciently persistent, and many of the members have all the hardihood necessary to consume all the time if they are permitted. A man isallowed to speak five minutes on each amendment, and he can get extra time by begging that of others members, and move to strike out the last word and making other dilatory steps. The announcement of the democrats that they are willing to modify their schedule relating, to woolen goods may help to shorten the de- ate. It is pretty generally conceded by the anti-Mills bill democrats and coutended by all of the republicans that the free wool sec- tion_will be stricken out entirely. This s the first section in the bill, and the big fight will be opened as soon us the debate is re- sumed. It may be that after the debate on the wool section is had, the democrats will sec the tendency of the house, and ask to have that section passed over without a final vote until the balance of the bill has L considered, 80 as to avoid the row that s inevitable, should the wool section be de- feated. A good deal of bad blood is anti pated, and personalities will undoubtealy run riot, and the debate will wax warmer and wariner us it progresses. "y There has been considerable wonder ex- pressed why the domocratic members of the house, who are in a majority by fifteen or sixtecn votes, do not refuse to consider the Mills tariff bill under the five minute rule by a decisive vote, since they have exerted so much euen.:f' tg persuade the republicans into a mutual agreement to that effect. The rules of the housé forbid this. They provide that a measure of this character must first be debated on its general features, and then taken up scction by scction under the five minute rule, and tie house must necessarily go from the committee of the whole on the state of the uuion mto an open body as it finally passes on the sections. To do awa with " this machinery and come to a di vote on the bill asa whole there must be unanimous consent. A single objection would prevent the setting asidc of the five- minute rule. This is why the effort bas been made to come to & mutual agreement. On next Thursday the Pennsyl road compauy will run a spe t Washington to St. Louis for the accommoda. tion of the newspaper correspondents here. The Washington correspondents have, for many years, accepted the courtesies of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad company, and have gone to the national conventions like 80 many royalists, These trains are run at the direction of the guests of the road, and are equipped in a surpassing way. The train will be made up_of vestibule coaches laden with the good things of the earth; and special receptions will be tendered the T3 route, The train that took the correspondents to'the republic nvention at Chicago in 1884 made a world-wide repu- tation, as it reduced the time between the national capital and the metropolis of Illinois over four hours. to that time the fastest express trains covered the distance between Washington and Chicago in'twenty- two hours, The special that brought ti correspondents over the Baitimore & Ohio from Chicago here occupied a little less than sixteen hours, About sixty men have indicated that they will accompany the trais and magnificent arrangemeuts are beiy provided to make the journey one of unusual brilliancy and intended to attract attention. Senator Ingall's speech in_reply to the at- tack upon him by Senator Voorhees, which led into the bitter colloquy that oceurred between these two men, has been prepared for public distribution, "The first issuo was angenormously large one, but was exhausted. Within less thun a week after its appearance, d a second issue hus been ordercd. ly ry republican in congress has g order for Senator Ingall's speech, and democrats have been compelled,upon t tation of their constituents, to go ator Ingalls and bog copics. The spoech, @s it appears now, is considerably mutdated. Scnator Ingalls tok the chari table view of it, and in the dialogue wh the senator from Indiana used epithets and unparliamentary language the words are omitted and stars ure inserted, The entire edition of the Congressional Itecord_contain- ing the speech was bought up before it reached the public stalls where it is usually kept on sale, and it would be next to an_im- possibility to procure @ copy of the official publication.

Three or four senators have lost all inter- est in the pending proceedings, it seoms, while more than twenty members of the house appear to have no more in the work going on thero than they do with that in progress in the house of parliament, London, One can discover from the actions of & sena tor or member when the point has been passed which decides that he i soon to re tire from congress. The day that this ques tion is settied and he knows posi that his public life is lim- he loses all intorest in the edings. With this fact in view some of the tariff loaders have boeh very uncertain a8 to what will be the determination of the work which has been progressing for some timo on the Mills bill. Thero is no rule by which to figure on either the political or i dividual action of a member or senator after he has beon dofeated for renomination. Tho degroe of independence ho exercises is alal ing. There was considerable uncertainty 10 what Senator Riddleberger would likely do on the tariff question until he was sounded, when it was asccrtained that he is a protectionist. Representative Beriah Wil- kins, of Ohio, declarcs that his recent defeat for renomination will not swerve him from voting against the Mills bill on account of its free wool provision. e The venerable Senator Reagan cuts some remarkable capers in the chamber of the sen ate occasionally. The other day during an interesting debate he took his juck-knife out of his pocket, opened ono of the long slender blades and proceeded to pick his ear.

A Chop House Customer Put to Flight With a Knife. Considerable excitement was caused on Douglas street last eyening by a terror- stricken individual, with his coat-tails at right angles to Lis body, darting down the street closely pursued by a white-jacketed walter from the Java coffee house, armed with a long carving knife. As the two flew down the pavement the yells and cheers of the bystanders scemed to dd fresh speed to the fellow in the , until he finally managed to distance his pursuer. The disappointed waiter, secing that pursuit was vain, gave up the chase and returned to his post’ to yoll “two up and a graveyard stew.” A policeman caught a glimpse of the affair just s the chase was being ended and followed the warlike waiter back to the chop house, but as all tho waiters looked alike he could not_determine which was the ono lie wanted, and_finally gave the matter up. It appears that tho waiter had Deen cursed and threatened by an over-fresh individual who had came into the chop house, and when the waiter objected the fresh indi- vidual began to crawl over the counter to paralyze him, when the waiter scized a knife and started after him with the results men- tioned above.

The Tuesday drili was well attended, and all present worked hard. The evening was taken up almost entirely in the marching tactics.

The evening certainly had some effect, and the boys went through the manoevers very creditably.

Mystorious Cavern in the Fox Ridge Range of Hills. RELICS OF APRE-HISTORIC AGE. An Arena Where the Inhabitants of Long Ago Sported, Drank and Made Merry on Their Fete Days. An Amphitheatre of the Natives, Pierke, Dak, May 27.—[Spocial to Tun Bee.]—As the country developes, the mys- terious wonders of Dakota are continually being brought before the gaze of an anxiously awaiting public. While it is known that these wonders do exist, it is a fact that they create no surprise, more than to call to the imagination the events that have long since rolled into oblivion and are lost in the dim agos of the past. A trip through the Fox Ridge range of hills, Iying eighty miles northwest from this point, upon the Sioux reservation, north of the BBig Cheyenne river, revoals a history that stands out before the public in as bold relief as though it were written upon tablets of solid granito and bore the name of tho most_eminent historian of the presont age The history of this low range of moun tains is written in its wonderful excava. tions and the grand arcna, whioh, taken all in all, to-lay marks 1t as the great coliseum and sporting place of a once mighty race of people, who inhabited this country long, long ages ago. The sounds of their voices and the revelry are no longer heard, but their words are left to bear witness to their acts and doings during tho days of their existence. n the south side of one of the highest peaks of the range is an_open valley, soma 200 feet in width, opening out and terminat- ing in an arcna of about 1,600 feet in circum- ference. The walls that surround this latter space are almost perpendicular to o hoight of nearly seventy-five feet, when they gradu- ally and reguiarly slope to the top of the hill, a_distance of 100 feet above. This evident- ally was not the work of human hands, but that of nature. It would scem to the observer, that this spot was at one time an active voleano, the many peculiaritios of the surrounding formation fully establishing this belief. Let this be a8 it may, the facts show that after- wards it was used by a race of people, long | years ago passed away and forgotten, as an amphitheater,where they gathered upon their galn days to witness the flerce and bloody contests of the huge animals that existed in that country during the remote age. Upon three sides of this arena, well up toward the top, situated one above the other, are tiers of small niches of windows, hewn out of the solid rock, and having entrances through the hill from the rear. In these littlo openings, the people of the day sat as spectators and watched the savage battles in the arena below. Judging from the size and slope of the bones scattered about the place, the auimals bore a striking resemblance to the lion and tigerof the pres- ent day, only many times larger. In the light soil, mixed with these boues, are the bones, hich to all appearances bore the fiesh of an- imals of a milder disposition, as it might have been the custom to furnish the victors with a feast after the battle. As one now sits in one of those little niches in the rock, he fancies those kings of beasts springing forth and with a thundering roar, tearing their victims to satisfy the cravings of their savage appetites. Old Rome, in_her most palmy days, when her coliscum ias her pride, might have boasted of a richer and more highly edu ed people than those who gathered ~to witness the sports of this nd arcua, but she could not have boasted 'of people more en- thusiastic. But why dispair, the future may reveal the history of those days and let 3 of lightshine upon the origin, habits wps methods by which these people Already in the vieinity of this arena have been dis ered @ number of large, smooth. flat stones, upon which are engraven as with some sharp instrument, symbols, signs and characte while upon smaller stones in the little caverns are inscriptions which are supposed to be & key to the language of that day andage. This is un- doubtedly an old world, and centuries befora the great pyramids reared their heads, this portion of the universe had passed the meridian of its splendor, and was rapidly passing into a decline. To the student of nature and the searcher of antiquity this Fox ridge range of hills opens up a new tield, is beyond comparison lea d men of this vicinity this important d throws somo light upon lie origin of the North American Indian, a8 ance the theory that the Indian of to-day is the off shoot of a superior rage of people, and at the time when these works structed this country was connected One fact which raises a posstbil- ity the Fox Ridge dwellers might have been of Asiatic origin is the construction of theselittle caves and their contents. In cach of the Little niches, even unto this da; mi slight alterations, resembling f I small furnaces, and with each is connceted a small outer passage way, possi- bly for the exit of smoke. That theso furnaces werc used as fire places there remains no doubt, as each one coutains & soft substance, that upon an: is proves to be wood ashes, To make the euidence more complete and conclusive, small pieces of vessels have been found scattered about thos rns of pe- culiar desizn and fino workmanship, together with ats of crockery resembling the present ware of China, and figured and orna- mented with Chinesé characters. In any ent it is evident that this coliseum was used for the holiday fetes and ts of the natives, and that they here drank, enter- tained their companions aud were merry, maces for cooking their ing, and enjoyed the wild, intoxicating scenes below.
