“Painted Desert”
Reproduced At San Deigo.
Santa Fe Railway Exhibit To Cover Ten
Acres Of This Unexplored Land.
Former exposition have shown
wild men and women from the
Antipodes, but it lias remained for
the San Diego Exposition to find a
whole nation of wild men within
the borders of the United States, a
whole vast area where nothing has
progressed since before the inv ision
of Mexico by Cortez in 1517. This
area is in northeastern Arizona,
and the Santa Fe Railway will
cover ten acres of ground at the
Exposition with as dose a copy of
this country as s possible to pro¬
duce.
This locality is, known as the
Painted Desert. Its a land where
no white man has dared attempt
agriculture or mining, where there
is nothing but the Indian, his an¬
cient civilization unaltered, living
in six story houses of 100 rooms
without an outside door, doing the
same things in the same way his
forefathers did for centuries before
white men came to America.
Comparatively few while men
have penetrated this district. None
has remained there. At long in¬
tervals a s eitist lias penetrated
the fastnesses of the red and yellow
hills. Indians emerge from it oc
Ctssionallv but: they invariablly re»
turn. Their homes are the inden
tical buildings erected many cen
tune? Their pottery is t hue
^
same', used for the same purpose
and in the'same rude manner.
Their customs and tribal laws re¬
main unchanged since when no
man knows to the contrary. They
irrigate small patches of grain just
as did their forefathers. The
country repels even the hardy pros¬
pector. Trees, except those petri¬
fied into stone, arc not seen. No
two hills are of the same color. The
very rocks are variegated in hue.
The pitiless sun scorches all vege¬
tation encouraged by the winter and
spring rains.
Members of tbe Santa Fe explor¬
ing party declare the Painted Des¬
ert rivals the wonderful Grand
Canyon of the Colorado in grand¬
eur and beauty of scenery. A
second party has been sent into it
to gather material for the great ex
hibit the railway will install at the
San Diego Exposition, to contain
every thing possible to bring from
that region, a territory that seems
to have been forgotten by Nature
herself.
