A LAND OF WONDERS.

PETRIFIED FORESTS, CLIFF HOUSES AND JEWEL FIELDS.

Work* of Nature and Primitive Man In Chalcedony Park, Arizona—Description of St John the Divine Realised—An Enthoaiaatic Scientist.

[Special Correspondence.]

FLAGSTAFF. A. T., May 19.—Ever since the first European set foot on our shores America has been a land of surprises. The people the first explorers found here were different from any other they had ever seen or heard of. The coast scenery was more attractive than that of Europe, though the works of man were absent and art had not yet secured a foothold. As the coantry was revealed to the intrepid pathfinders they found yet mightier creations than their wildest imagination had pictured, but it remained for this territory of Arizona to eclipse them all. Again and again it has been declared a "wonderland" unsurpassed in stupendous natural features, and the visitor who will spend a few weeks within its borders will sanction all that is claimed.

I do not by any means claim that it is a paradise or assert that I would wish to reside here any long period of my life, but I do not remember having passed through or across any state of our Union which presented so many superficial attractions en route. There are vast desert tracts, sterile hillsides and barren mountains, the fertile spots being mainly hidden out of sight, but the hills and mountains are said to be filled with minerals, and the climate— the air the Arizonian breathes—is unsurpassed.

Nature has used the wind and sand to work her will upon the great limestone rocks and has carved them into fantastic shapes like the high butte called Navajo Church, near Fort Wingate, which more nearly resemLles a cathedral than anything else as it rises against the horizon in strong relief, with the clearest of skies as a background. "There is nothing mean" about the works of nature here, for they nre all on the grandest scale, tho mountains, the dosert tracts and finally tho unfathomable canyons. Now, there is Chalcedony park, as it is called, lying about 30 miles to tho southward of the station of Holbrook, and which wo visited after our return from the Moqni towns. In other parts one might perhaps pick up small fragments of silicified or ngatized wood, scattered hero and thero over a wide area, but here we find literally a forest of precious stones. In the West Indies, in tho island of Antigua, I have found bits of cedar and cocoa palm in a valley of petrifactions and also pieces of mangrove and other semitropical trees, but tho area is restricted. Here, however, thero are over 2,000 acres of petrifactions, a "jewel forest" containing millions of tons of large logs and trees, hujfo trunks of forest monarchs that surpass any other with which I am acquainted. They are prostrate, of oourse, but they are as completely petrified, or rather silicified, as any agates or carnelians you will see in any store in Now York.

At one time, probably, this region, liko a large portion of the low lying dosert, was tho bed of an inland sea. On its borders, or by some great flood swept into it, were tho trees, mostly cedar and pine, which by the alchemy of nature were transmuted into precious stones. And here wo find them now, not in minute pieces and small chips, but in Ions larger than an ordinary team of stout horses can move. Many of thorn are practically entiro, but the majority have been cleft apart trans•ersely by the action of frost or intense heat, until they preseut the appearanoe of great disks, only needing tho aid of the lapidary and the emery wheel to beoomo the most beautiful of jewels, from 8 to 5 feet in diameter.

Agate and amethyst, earoelian and ohalcedouy, topaz and chrysoprase—all the shining stones mentioned in the good book as lining the streets of the oslestial oity are here scattered about as if they were mere worthless rubbish and unworthy the labor of collection. We filled several sacks with specimens, and we longed to carry off some of the great slabs, some of them 8 or 4 feet across and only on inch or two in thickness.

We walked in wouder anioug these "diamonds in the rough," stumbling over silicified limbs and branches, eating our lunch off an agatixed table that would have been cheap at a king's ransom and kicking at chaieedouixed pine knots imbedded in the sands. But the climax of our astonishment was reached when our guide took us to a small can-

A CUFF DWKLUNO.

yon and them pointed out a tree trunk spanning it, some 60 feet long and of proportionate thick in**, and which, like all the rest, was composed entirely of agate and jasper.

As I stood below this wonderful bridge, which during the eons had slowly crystallised into a mighty Jewel. It occurred to me that nothing hereafter oould cause me surprise or seem an exaggeration. For here was more than surpassed the description of St John, in his vtsiou of tbe Holy City: "And tin foundations of tbe wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stone*. Tbe first foundation was jasper,

the second sapphire, the third a chaloedony, the fourth an emerald, the fifth sardonyx, tbe sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth a topaz, tbe tenth a chrysoprasue, the eleventh a jacinth, and the twelfth an amethyst."

I will not go to the extent of saying that all the precious stones mentioned by the divine were here, but neither will I say, that most of them were not.

At last we left this desolate desert of gems, regained the railroad and came to this point, whence we paid a flying trip to the cave and cliff dwellings of a prehistoric people, which are mainly situated in Walnut canyon, about eight miles southeast of Flagstaff. These cliff dwellings, about which the scientific investigator has speculated long and vainly, are the mysteries of our time. Within the eroded cliffs, between the layers of harder strata, those most ancient of peoples, the cliff dwellers, fixed their habitations. As we approached them they reminded me of swallows' nests, affixed against the almost perpendicular cliffs. With the impending rock above and the sheer descent of precipices below, the wonder is bow those Indians reached these spots and then built there the walls of stone and mortar which we find today. Yet there they stand, many of them almost intact, mute memorials of a period long since forgotten in tbe deeps of time. The Pueblo people, as we have already seen, were discovered in tbe very villages which they occupy at the present time, but the cliff dwellers have passed away,

A PETHIFIED LOO.

leaving only to conjecture their status and tribe. Not solely to speculation, however, as many relics have been found, such as rude pottery, fragments of cloth and baskets, which show that they had made a certain advance in the arts of civilization.

But enough has been shown to indicate what afield for exploration Arizona yet offers to the scientist. Flagstaff itself, from which I am writing, is most beautifully situated, surrounded by a pine park and near the San Francisco mountains. It has many attractions, of itself, in its situation and its pure mountain air, but is chiefly interesting as being the point of departure not only for the best cliff dwellings, but for the canyon of the Colorado and the hunting grounds of the higher hills.

When Thoreau died, he was the obscurest man, perhaps, in the town. He was only known to a few of the inhabitants, and to those only as an ecoentric man who was wholly impractical in his notions. Soon after his graduation from Harvard he undertook the manufacture of lead pencils. Being an expert chemist, he announced that he proposed to make the best pencil that bad ever been invented. He experimented till he produced a pencil that was pronounced superior to the best imported variety. Every one supposed that his fortune was now about to be made. Time went on, and finally some one asked why he did uot make more pencils. "I shall never make another pencil," said he. "I have made tbe best that oan be made. There is no room for further improvement in that line, and 1 do not propose to go on repeating myself. I have other work to da"

And he never made any more pencils. The nearest literary haunt to Boston —nearer than Concord—is Cambridge, the town wherein history and literature join bands. Under the old elm Washington drew his sword as commander in chief of the Continental army. Not far away stand his whilom headquarters, wherein Longfellow sang his deathless songs, penned bis magic prose, made his marvelous translations. Now the pretty Longfellow Memorial park stretches to the blue Charles river, which flows on, litre tbe poet's fame, forever. Here and there, up this street and down this lane, one looks at the birthplace of men famous in history and letters. Can any city or town show in so small a space such an array of noted name*?

BOSTON, May. 24.—During the coming summer there promises to be another rush of touriBts and visitors to the historic literary town of Concord, near Boston. Thousands of persons visited Concord last year to see the homes and haunts of Thoreau, Emerson, Alcott and others. The spirit of Ralph Waldo Emerson is stamped indelibly upon everything pertaining to Concord, where he was for so many years its most famous citizen. Ho lived in the simplest way in a house that does not differ specially from those of many prosperous farmers of the locality. It is located something like a half mile from the postofflce and the center of the town, and has all the advantages of the open country,where, in fact, it is situated. Tho Emerson estate holds hundreds of acres of land, mostly wild and practically barren, grown up to scrub pines. Upon this estate is located Walden pond, made famous by Henry D. Thoreau's book.

APPOINTMENTS The MARKET^ed

Mow Most of the Selections Are Made After Competitive Examinations The Color Line—NefiWM In Washington—End of a

Bad Practice.

[Special Cor*esp6ndence.] |L ^WASHINGTON, May 24.—The annual

commencement of the Naval academy will be held next week at Annapolis and anew batch of ensigns will be added to the navy. Not long afterward a new class of young men from every state in the Union will be entered at the academy. Most of the candidates have been named, and 100 of them were up for examination a week ago. All appointments must be made by the

1st

of

July. These appointments are among the cherished privileges of congressmen The law provides that each congressional district and territory and the District of Columbia shall have a representative at the academy and that ten cadets "at large" shall be appointed by the presi dent The president's appointments are given usually to the sons of naval officers of distinction.

All the new cadets will be residents of the districts from which thqy are appointed. This has not been the case always. At one time the secretary of the navy filled vacancies left by members of congress, and the appointees were often not'even residents of the states which they were supposed to represent. There was a great deal of feeling about this among congressmen, and they passed a law limiting the discretion of the secretary of the navy.

It is very general rule now to select candidates for appointments to either West Point or Annapolis by competitive examination. Congressmen have found that this is the simplest way of answering the importunities of several hundred of their constituents, each of whom wants a cadetship for his son. But recently there has come a situation which is an argument against tbe competitive system—a colored boy, the successful one of the candidates examined at Cincinnati, and Congressman Shattuo has appointed him. Navy officers are much wiought up over the prospect and the cases of other colored cadets have been cited to prove Mr. Shattuc's folly. This has not lessened the ardor of the young candidate, and the congressman is bound in honor to stand by him. So if he passes tbe examination for entrance, which he is to take in September, he will become a cadet. Whether he will graduate is another question. There have been other colored cadets, but they never succeeded in getting through the academy. Their lives were made miserable by the white cadets until they were glad to leave.

You cannot expect boys to be more tolerant of a mingling of the races than their parents are, and right here in Washington we have the best evidence of the fact that the African race is a race apart.

The Color Line at the Capital.

Washington, you know, has a large negro population. One-third of its inhabitants are colored. Many of the negroes aro rich. Some of them hold important public positions. There are negroes on the school board. Civil rights are enforced here more strictly than in any other city of the Union, yet in Washington there is no social mingling of white and black, and the colored children have schools of their own. Colored children are not permitted to attend the white children's schools.

A negro named Purvis, who was for many years at the head of the Freedmen's hospital here, sent his children to one of the white schools. He was almost white his wife bad a light skin and the children had no negro characteristics. But one day it was discovered that these children were negroes, and immediately they were compelled to leave the school. Purvis fought tbe case, but he was beaten.

Purvis is one of the few negroes who are ashamed of having African blood. Some years ago I wrote Purvis a note, asking for his photograph to use in a magazine story about "the men of his race," as I expressed it to him. He replied indignantly that he belonged to the same race as myself—the human race—and he sent no photograph. It was because Purvis was so little of a negro that Secretary Hoke Smith removed him from the management of the Freedmen's hospital.

Tbe exception proves the rule. Most of the negroes of Washington do not want to associate with white people, and when Fred Douglass married a white woman he fell greatly in the estimation of his negro friends.

The south has a full representation in tbe Naval academy now, but a few years ago tbe southern states were represented at Annapolis by northern boys. That was the time when cadetships at the Military and Naval academies were objects of barter and sale. The government did not sell them, but congressmen did. So open and so shameless was this traffic that advertisements were inserted in the local papers offering these appointments for a fixed price. Tbe officers of the government could not have been ignorant of what was going on, because these advertisements were published openly. That they were not ignorant was shown in tbe testimony taken before a congressional committee, in which an ex-army officer who had paid $2,000 for tbe appointment of his son testified that be called at the bouse of General Scbofield, lately in command of tbe army of the United States, and spoke to him about the possibility of appointing a cadet from a state in which be did not actually reside. "Oh, you want to know if you can ooloniae a cadet?" said General Scbofield, according to this testimony, and tbe witness continued: "General Scbofield then went on to say that after tbe commencement of the rebellion tbe vacancies at West Point from tbe tebd

\EV^NING MAIL, MAY 29, 1897.

states had been filled from tbe loyal states, and that, continuing this practice since the termination of the rebel lion, appointments had been made for tbe reconstructed states contrary to the letter of the law, and that these irregularities had been acquiesoed in, and that under these circumstances the appointment itself made on the nomination of a member of congress, who was presumed to know tbe law, was prima facie evidence of its correctness, and he did not see how the academic staff or tbe inspector of tbe academy conld go behind it and question its validity."

Price of Appointments.

It is only just to General Schofield to say that the testimony showed that he had no knowledge in this case, and inferentially no knowledge in any particular case, that money was paid for appointments. The congressional committees which investigated the subject did not implicate him in any way.

The case recommended by a congressional committee for dismissal was that of a South Carolina congressman who had been a minister of the gospel. There was a pleasant little fiction accepted by the "friends" who interceded with congressmen to the effect that the money paid for appointments was to be used for political and educational purposes in tbe south. Most of the congressmen implicated got off on this plea with a mere reprimand. The South Carolina congressman was indiscreet enough to write to an applicant for an appointment as follows: "DEAR SIR—In reply to your communication I have to say that so many have applied for the position you name that I have set the value of the appointment, outside of my district, at $500. Yours, etc., ."

It was also unfortunate that the man to whom this letter was addressed had gone to the congressman some time before with letters of introduction to ask for the appointment and had been denied on the ground that it bad already been promised. The applicant returned. He wrote to the congressman, saying that $500 had been offered to him for the letter he had received, evidently hoping that the congressman would be frightened into giving him the appointment. The congressman stood his ground and his correspondent then made the matter public. Tbe subject was investigated and the congressional committee unanimously recommended the unseating of the congressman.

In the case of another congressman the investigating committee found that he had not received any of the $3,000 which it was shown the mother of the cadet had paid to an agent for his appointment, and the case was allowed to drop.

A Court Martial.

Finally the committee appointed to make a general investigation of the subject recommended a court martial in the case of an officer of the navy (afterward an admiral) who had paid $1,800 to a lobbyist to obtain an appointment for bis son, and that the secretary of tho interior be asked to remove the chief examiner of the pension office, who had acted as ago between in many cases.

So ended the sale of naval and military cadetsbips. No man has been charged since that investigation with selling appointments. Officers of tbe army aud navy who want their sons to follow them in a military or naval career no longer pay for that privilege. The president of the United States always gives his appointn&nts at the academies to tho sons of distinguished officers, and one of the graduates from Annapolis this year is a son of Admiral Gherardi.

His Bdltorlai.

It was the practice of a certain London editor some years ago to write his leading article or articles at home the nigbt before publication. The rest of the week he did nothing. One nigbt his articles had not come to hand at the office. Ten o'clock came—11, 12, and still no sign of an article. There was commotion in the office, and at last a messenger was sent to the editor's houpe. He found him with a glass of brandy and water before him and newspapers scattered about. There was no article written. What do you want?" asked tbe editor. "Tbe article for tomorrow." "Didn't I send it?" "No at least it has not come to the office." "Give me The Times." The Times was found and handed to him, and with unsteady fingers he cut out one of its leading articles. This he stuck upon a sheet of paper, and then, taking bis pen, wrote at the top, "What does Tha Times mean by this?" In that form and with tbat introduction it appeared next morning as the editor's leading article. —San Francisco Argonaut

AN INCIDENT AT THE CITY HOSPITAL.

A Woman's Life Barely Saved by a Critical Operation—Her Health Destroyed.

There was a hurry call for the ambulance of the City Hospital. In the course of an hour a very stretcher. She was pale There was a hasty exam

stantly! That young woman

had had warnings enough in the terrible pains, the burning sensation, the swelling low down on her left side. No one advised her, so she suffered tortures and nearly lost her life. I wish I had met her months before, so I could have told her of the virtues of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. As it is now, she is a wreck of a woman.

Oh, my sisters, if you will not tell a doctor your troubles, do tell them to a woman who stands ever ready to relieve you! Write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., confide freely to her all your troubles, and she will advise you free of charge and if you have any of the above symptoms take the advice of Miss Agnes Tracy, who speaks from experience and says:

For three years I had suffered with inflammation of the left ovary, which caused dreadful pains. I was so badly affected that I had to sleep with pillows under jay side, and then the pain was so great it was impossible to rest.
