PREHISTORIC WALL OF ROCK. Remarkable Discovery of Work Done by Unknown Race. As the cities of Pompeil and Her culaneum were discovered by digging a well, so the most prehistoric rock wall in the United States was discov ered in 1857 by a farmer who now lives in Rockwell, Tex., says the New Orleans Picaryune. But whether in that portion which is surrounded by this wall is a Pompeii or for what pur pose it. was built has never been as certained up to the present. Here and there portions of the wall are exposed at distances of sevpral yards. Even in some places it is cov ered up for a mile or two. One day a farmer, not knowing that the wall was there, dug a well along the side of thi wall 30 feet deep. Near the bottom of .his well he discovered an. arched opening, which was two by three feet. This opening has been seen by several of the In habitants of Rockwell, and It is be lieved this must have been used as an entrance into the wail. The bot tom of the wall was not reached at a depth of 30 feet. This has been the only opening ever found, because the wall has never been exposed, except last fall, when two young men of Rockwell dug about the wall Ive feet in width and about the same in depth. This gave one a good idea of the walL The rocks were nicely laid with abridged Joints in regular fash ion, but the substance between them was not mortar, but clay. A closer exaiination reveals no sign of any hard tool used upon the rocks, and no doubt wooden mallets were used to give them their sies. On the east side of the wall the rock is smooth, while on the west it is rough. They are all composed of sandstone, with streaks of mica and pebbles of iron. It s said that n the surrounding regions no rock ira be found similar to this, except in the chimneys and wells which the farm ers own. The rocks at the opening found are from two to sfi feet long, three feet wide and two feet thick. An effort was made tQ bring some of them to the surface by the men who dug bhe well, but they found the task too difficult. On top the rocks are much smaller, running about 18 inches long, three 'Inches thlik and .'ight'inches wide. , The tarmets. claim that the wall is about 16 mfles long, and they know exaetly'tt e6orse. There is no doubt tlha this is t~ Past prehistore wall in the United States, and so dr ar'kawm, theS8mith. soinan tInstitati of Washingtos, p.D C, has never mae ay 'effort s-w pose the length and width ot the nrall or give sa explaatiam of Its Woodmen Ball at Scott.

Dear Sir: In order that young people may know what your school did for me, and WHAT IT CAN DO FOR THEM, and what I think of it, I will say, that, after taking the course in Bookkeeping, Penman ship, Arithmetic and other English branches TEN WEEKS, you placed me in a good position. I had never studied Bookkeeping before entering your school and notwithstanding the fact that the books of the firm for whom I worked WERE IN VERY BAD SHAPE, I had no trouble in straightening them out and in keeping them correct. MY SALARY WAS RA[SED at the beginning of the second month, and gain the third month I really believe that your school IS THE BEST Business College in the South. Your courses are thorough and practical, teachers competent and conscientious; equipment first class in every respect, EXPENSES VERY LOW, and you have demonstrated time and again that for $100 total cost, one can become a very good bookkeeper or stenogra pher in FOURTEEN WEEKS or less.
