It has been stated that the Long Isl and Railroad Company has approved the plans prepared for the construction of a new depot on the property re cently acquired by it from George W. Wright. From plans seen v>the depot will be located to the west of Broad way, on the south side of tne track, with a broad approach. The tracks will be shifted somewhat, and in addi tion thereto, it is proposed to buila a subway from the south to the north side tracks, so to relieve the necessity of crossing all tracks. It is believed that work on the new structure will be weather conditions could not have subsisted entirely on game, for certainly rainfall could not have supplied them with sufficient water, nor these mountains with enough game. And there is nothing to Indicate any great calamity or extermination. All is in order and whatever the process of extermination was, it must have been slow. In the ruins of Southern Colo rado, I am told that a calamity befell the people and that the skeletons lie unburied and the general confusion everywhere denoted a sudden end, but on the Puye ruins there is absolutely no indication of where these thousands of people went, or how they went.

The library has received a new con- plenty, that the inhabitants were farm ers and that what appears to have been a fort or reservoir on top of the cliff’s was a storehouse for the com munity’s grain. Where did these strange people go, and why did they go? You guess, for your guess is as good as any history or theory I can find. Lummis says they did not disappear but that their descendants are the Pueblo Indians. Hewitt says this cannot be so, for there is too great a difference in the heads of the cliff dwellers’ skeletons and the present Indians to allow any connection or relationiship.

Over the doors of many of the homes on the Cliff’s face are rock pictures— whose meanings I would give much to read—and of some I am sure there are meanings. The sun symbol is promin ent, and they are no doubt sun wor shippers while there are many crude drawings represeanting men, beasts and birds. One carving particularly interested me, as representing a heart. Over one door was a sun symbol, and then at a later time a sort of a circle had been cut over it. Whether the sun symbol indicated the resident was orig inally ^the presiding elder for the dis trict, and that the circle indicated that later on he had been appointed a not ary public, I am not sure. It’s a land of guess work, those wierd old cliffs, and mine is as good as an history. Where the great quantities of cem ent came from that plastered almost every room of these hundreds, is anoth er for the puzzle department to go to. Nothing has ever been found here of the sticky nature, yet these aborigin- ees must have had a Portland source from somewhere, for it was used in, abundance. In but one room of the hundreds and on but one of the rock pictures is there any color. But in one we found the interior painted red faded through the many generations, but plainly red, and the picture of unintelligible man or animal over this door had been first carved and then painted.

But never a bone rattled. But there was a fitting close. Just as we were about to leave, and I was taking a last look at this white cliff and its human holes; a gaunt rav en, perched on the highest cliff and ut tered his discordant croaks, and it seemed almost a half fulfillment of my wish, and a fitting farewell to this city of mystery and death. And as I stood watohing this biack bird of prey, afar off from the Rio Grande came the faint echo of an en gine’s whistle, and it seemed like a false note to this music of the past, and the ravep’s croaks seemed as if written for the scene—as harmony for the time and place.

Chicken thieves are making the lives of poultry owners in the lower part of Baldwin a burden. They do not know what night they may go to bed and wake up the next morning with several of their choice fowls gone. Since be fore Thanksgiving these sneak 'thieves have made raids on no less than a dozen different places and at one place made two visits. Several attempts to catch these marauders have been made but without success.
