IS ANCIENT RACE
FIVE BODIES OF PREHISTORIC
BACH UNEARTHED IN '
' , MOUNDS.
Excavations by J. S. Crawford Result
In Important Addition to Knowledge
of Primitive Man in Oregon Altar
of Pre-Indian Tribe Disclosed.
iiiAlbany, Or., April IS. While exca
vating last Sunday in a mound on a
farm five miles southwest of AIiany,
near the bank of Oalapoola river, J. O.
Crawford of this city discovered the
remains of several bodies of prehistor
ic men, and also a small altar, un
doubtedly used as a place for sacrifices.-
The remains of five bodies were
found, the skeleton showing that all
the bodies had been mutilated.
Mr. Crawford, who has made a num
ber of excavations in difierent mounds
in this part of the state during the
past few years, and who has acquired
considerable reputation as an areheol
ogist, thinks the people whoso mounds
he is now investigating were undoubt
edly 'cannibals. He has discovered mu
tilated bodies in a numtx-r of mounds,
while parts would he entirely miming.
There is conclusive evidence that An-
- eay was not the cause, as many of the
iinger lonea and other small bones are
in a perfect state of preservation,
while the entire backbone, or one or
more of the limbs may t gone.
Most of the bodies found Hunday
were badly mutilated. In some eases
a part of the face was mis&ing, a cir
cumstance never met with in the other
mounds Mr. Crawford has investigated.
Jn one skull the whole face had Wen
broken out from the top of the head
to the jaw, while, in two others a jaw
ami other small parts of the face were
, missing. . , , ' '
The clay altar found in the mound
Sunday, though small, was a "perfect
one. It was built on a rock founda
tion, !n ovai form, and was constructed
of clay, which had been burned until
it was red as brick, though not hard.
The altar proper was twenty-four
inches long and eighteen inches wide.
Mr. Crawford" says there is no dosbt
but that it had been used for sacri
cial purposes, and from what he has
been able to learn about the habits of
-this race from his investigations, 1 he
thinks it must have been the custorriof
. this prehistoric race to offer the hearts
or the dead "on theSe little altars j as
burnt offering to some' deity. "He
found one other altar in his previous
excavation, 'but it was not so perfect

buried in mounds and the monnda were

TOKIO PAPERS ASSEBT FRENCH

Claim That Use of Island of Madascar
by Eojestvensky's Squadron Was Di
rect and Prolonged Violation of the
Principle of Neutrality.
TOKIO April 18. Discussing the
presence of vessls of the Russian second
Pacific squadron at Kamranh bay, on
the east coast of French Indo-China,
The Jiji Shirapo declares that the use
of the island of Madagascar by the
Russian squadron was a direct and pro
longed violation of the principle of
neutrality, but on aeeount of the dis-i
tance, Japanese in that'instanee simply
lodged a protest. The paper however,
insists that Russia is now using Kam
ranh bay as a basefor action against
her opponent, and she intends to use
it as the point for effecting a juncture
with the remaining division of the
squadron.
If the use of Kamranh bay is con
tinued,' the paper adds, " Japan must
regard "its neutrality as completely Ig
nored and Japan will not be obliged to
respect ; its neutrality. Violations of
neutrality in distant ports are not im
portant, but when close to the awme of
war it Is impossible to view them with
the same leniency.".
The Jiji Hhimpo further declares that
Prance Is lending the Russians suffiri
rnt assistance, thus actually joining is
sue With Russia against Japan, and that
it is now necessary for Japan to notify
Great Britain end obtain her co-opeira-tlon
according to the terms of tho Anglo-Japanese
alliance.
"Protests," the paper asserts, "are
unavailing.; The time for action has
come.' -
The Nichi Nichi today says France
has been a party to keeping the location
o the Runnian squadron a secret end
adds that France does not observe the
24-honr rule, but, the paper adds, the
spirit of neutrality affords no excuse
for extending sn'eh hospitality to a bel
ligerent Squadron, and it expresses the
hopa that : France will take steps , to
abide by her obligations and duties as
a neutral power.
The Asahi, Mhimbun assorts that
Franc has . kept the presence, of the

ami Washington, who still have hops
on hand, will hold a' meeting in Port

This meeting will be held in roionse
to a call by inane PineuS Si Hons of Ta
cumo, who announce that they have an
important proposition to make to the
growers. It is said that this proposi
tion is the formation of a gigantic noo)
or combination of all hops on hand rn
the two states, with an agreement to
hold out for a period of at least sixty
days or until not less than 30 cents
can be realized for the-hops. - It is
also said that the growers will take
occasion to inform the brewers of their
position in the form of a resolution,
which is calculated to have some effect

condition of the market in foreign conn

are consumed. They are taken from, a
letter from Adolf jiucr of, '.- Prague,
Austria, under date of March 30:
