Call on Southern Pacific Co'i Agents SAVAGE COUNTRIES ALLIED Somor That Aztecs and Africans -Were Joined by Treaty 'Given " &ise by Discovery. - j Were the men who built the prehistoric structures at Zimbab we in Africa of the same race as the Aztecs and other native races that have left pyramids and mon uments of various kind3 through out Central and South America? This speculation takes its rise from the uncovering at Umtali in Africa of an "arrastre" stone. An arrastre is a rude apparatus nsed in Mexico and in some parts of the United States for grinding, and, at the same time amalgamating ores containing free gold and sil ver. It consists of a vertical axis with horizontal arms attached. To these arms huge masses of rock are fastened by chains and "dragged over the ore, which is placed on a bed of stones within a circular inclosure usually about 12 feet in diameter. The arrastre stone at Umtali was discovered by mining engineers in the regidn of the prehistoric gold mines. It is believed that the people who built the old temples and courts at Zimbabwe must have been the same as those who ground and amalgamated the , metallic ores with those crude implements. "A marvelous field of specu lative archaeology is opened up," says a writer. "It has been dem onstrated by Herodotus that the Phoenicians, who went very near ly everywhere, paid a visit to South Africa in the year 600 B. C, The ancient ruins of Ehodesia have been ascribed by more than one authority to these hardy, en terprising people of the old world; It has been contended, also, that the natives of South Africa, other than those of Spanish stock, de rived their origin from a Phoenician'- immigration. The word 'Phoenician,' in Greek, means 'a red man.' The builders of Tyre were a mixed race, Semitic and Mongolian. Doej not the Amer ican 'red man' possess facial char acteristics peculiar to those two cations? "A well-known mining engi neer says : 'I have -been much struck with the great similarity between these ancient ruins and 1 hose of the Aztec Indians in Colorado and New Mexico.' It would be a strange coincidence if, with the aid of the arrastre stone, a relationship were traced be- V tween the early gold diggers in South Africa and those pre-Columbian miners of South Amer ica." : '' BOOKWORMS NOT WORMS. Some Haunt Books to Prey Upon Other Mites Which Inhabit Same Places. The, name bookworm is made to cover an army of little creatures of various sizes, shapes and kinds w hich can be found in books, says the New York Herald. Eeally', no one of them is a worm, thougl: perhaps the "fish moth" or "sil ver lish" comes nearer to it than anj- of the others. There are the book scorpions and mites, which are not insects, ' - sro. .pc-iThn'ily cnn'"""oiis. Th' ir presence m books may be due 1: the fact that they find there an imal as well as vegetable food. This is certainly true of the scor pions, which feed on mites, book- lice and other small insects. The book lice, cockroaches, sil ver lish" and ."fish moth" can have no reason, for infesting books, ex cept their liking for farinaceous substances such as are nsed in and about the labels and bindings of books. The damage done by them is largely confined to the exterior or interior of the bindings them selves. . . . " . . ".. . Tne "white ants" ieed princi pally on wood, and in and about Looks there is more or less wood fiber, which is to the liking of these voracious feeders. , The moths and beetles are the borers and burrowers. They seek retired places to lay their eggs. Avhers the larvae will have plenty f food at hand when hatched, They will sometimes tunnel from one cover to the other. - t; Professional Criticism..

LARGEST MILL IN WORLD. .Big Device Located Near San Fran cisco Pumps 200,000 Gallons of Water Every 24 Hours. The largest windmill in the United States, if, indeed, not the largest in the whole world, has re cently been constructed near San Francisco, savs the American In ventor. This gigantic mill is lo cated directly on the ocean beach, near the famous Seal Bocks. It is used for pumping water up into Golden Gate park. The huge, strong wooden tower supporting the wind arms rises 150 feet. It is 40 feet square at the base, very securely anchored and gradually tapers upward, as suming a rorfnd shape. There are four immense wooden arms or Vanes. Each arm measures 80 feet from the center or hub thus mak ing a diameter of lbO feet in tne describing circle. The wind vanes are six feet wide and extend near ly the entire length of the huge arm, thus affording the greatest possible amount of wing space for catching the air. The windmill is located npon a prominent elevation, so that it may catch every available wind arising in that section.' This colossal windmill is capa ble of developing about 50-horse-po.wer its maximum " capacity. Its pumping capacity is 200,000 gallons of water every 24 hours. The water is taken from the wells and forced through a large iron main, 16 inches in diameter for nearly four miles up into an im mense reservoir ' several hundred feet higher than the ocean beach. From this reservoir the water is distributed in all directions through the park. During the dry, hot season the arms 01 this giant wtnamni are kept whirling day and night to supply the thirsty demand. As the mill stands on the wide, open beach, there is rarely, if ever, any lack of wind; in fact, the wind oc casionallv blows with such vio lence that the mill is compelled to be shut down, as it would be risky to attempt to run it during a fierce gale. ; Stoical Mikado. Mutsohito, the emperor of Jap an, is about as stoical and impas sive as an American Indian. When Prof. Milne, the greatest living seismologist, was studying earth , quakes in the far east he spent some years in the Tokio univer sity. In that island empire earth quakes occur two or three times a day sometimes. The professor's researches and experiments at tracted the attention of the mi kado, for whose pleasure a sham earthquake was arranged.. On a waste piece of ground the profes sor caused to be erected some ibuildings, beneath w-hich vere quantities of powerful explosives. -The emperor pressed the button iand the mines exploded with ter rific force. His majesty remained calm and imperturbable. He had neither started nor blinked. : Mo tionless and impassive, he watched the scene. Then, just on one word "Really!" ": -..
