| An Old Account of the Creation.

Dr. Augustus Le Plougeon, the indefa- tigable explorer of ancient American ruins, who with his wife has spent 12 years in the heart of the province of Yucatan, explor- ing those wonderful ruins that for ages have lain buried in the dense forests of the peninsula, has just given the reading world a new compilation of the results of his and Mrs. Le Plougeon’s most valuable | study of a now forgotten civilization. His new book bears the title ‘Sacred Myster- ies Among the Mayas and the Quiches 15,- 500 Years Ago; Their Relation to the Sac- red Mysteries of Egypt, Greece, Chaldea and India.” The avowed object of Dr. Le Plougeon’s book is to awaken in American students of archzeology an interest in these ruins somewhat proportionate to that felt by European students in American antiqui- ties.

Dr. Le Plougeon finds among the Mayax the counterpart of the story of the crea- tion. In Mayax the primitive rulers re- ceived their titles from the shape or con- tour of their empires. The name Can (serpent) thus became the title of the Mayax rulers (as Khan is the title of the Kings of Tartary and Burmah), who after death, as images on earth of deity, re- ceived the honors of apotheosis. A_ cer- tain King Can, one of the earliest Mayax rulers, had five children, the family often represented by seven rattles in the tail of a great snake, symbol of the King himself. It was the Mayax law that the youngest

| son of the royal family should marry the

eldest daughter, in order to insure the le- gitimate and divine descent of the royal family. The youngest son of this family was Prince Coh, and the eldest daughter was Princess Moo. After the father’s death Coh became King and Moo Queen of Chicheu. But Aac, the second son of King Can, was also in love with his sister. To him had been assigned the ancient metro- polis of Uxmal. tHe was not a warrior, but a luxurious courtier, and envious of his younger brother's fame and of Moo’s love for him. He, therefore, plotred against Prince Coh’s life, and determined to have his Queen, and to become sole ruler of the empire. Finally Aac killed his brother treacherously with three spear thrusts, and proceeded to make love to his Queen. was the custom in offering her his hand, he sent messengers with a basket of fruit, her acceptance of which would indicate heraccept- ance of his suit. Ina mural painting the scene is vividly portrayed, the Queen Moo is seen rejecting the messenger and the basket of fruit, while in a tree near by is seen a serpent looking intently at a maccaw ona branch near by, imaccaw being the meaning of Moo, the Queen’s name, ‘*Here we have,” says Dr. Le Plougeon, ‘“‘the garden, the woman, the tempter and the fruit. The story of this family incident, passing from mouth to mouth, from gener- ation to generation, from country to coun- try, has become transfigured, probably by peoples who did not hold women in as high esteem, or did not honor her as much as the Mayas did. The biblical account of the murder of Abel by Cain, or of the fra- tricide in Ramayans, or the Egyptian papyri, the doctor believes to be essentially the story of the feuds of King Can’s chil- dren. This story, treasured by the priests of Egypt and India, preserved in their sacred books and poems, has been handed down to us among the primitive traditions of mankind. But, nowhere, except in Mayax, do we find it as forming part of the history of the nation. Nowhere except in Mayax do we find the portraits of the actors in tragedy. There we not only see their portraits carved in bas relief, on stone or wood, or their marble statues in the round, or represented in the mural paintings that adorn the walls of the funeral chamber built to the memory of the victim, but we discover the ornaments they wore, the weapons they used, nay more, the mortal remains.” Both the funeral chamber and the sculptured tomb of Prince Coh were examined by the Le Plougeons, who finally disinterred his statue, and found in an urn his partly cremated heart, and the flint head of the spear with which he was slain, as the explorers believe, over 11,000 yeas ago. 2

The Mayor of Grand Rapids, Mich., last week issued an edict compelling the Sal- vation Army to refrain from public parades or suffer arrest. They disobeyed the in- junction and were locked up—twenty in all. Great excitement prevailed for a time, thousands witnessing the arrest. The Mayor is determined to suppress the par- ades, and public sentiment is with him. The police station was crowded with sym- pathizers of the Salvationists, and the scene was quite dramatic when the prisoners kneeled and prayed for the judge, police, city officials, and the city at large. ‘‘Amens” was heard from all quarters.
