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;

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

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!" ": -.. ' --
