They would be without word from the outside world for ' eight months every year If It were not for the mall dogs. These animals are pushed to their Utmost by considerate and crueJ drivel1 alike, for there Is a prescribed task for them every day, and all they got out of It is a pound and a half of dried salmon at the end of the day. When they are not working their al lowance of 1inh Is cut down. In the summer they are fed on the refuse of fresh salmon at the Ashing dumps, where the mall contractor boards them out until the rivers freeze again. IMPORTANT PART OF BUILDING Ceremonies More or Less Elaborate Generally Accompany Laying of Cornerstone. The United States government J>uts up public buildings all over the coun try, and a cornerstone is customarily laid. Hut there is no hole ln> the lat ter unless It be requested by the local authorities, or a Masonic body desires to conduct a ceremony. , ~ The Masons take a special Interest In cornerstones. On such an occasion they appear in full regalia, and a cop per box Is used to hold the articles In terred. The box t? soldered up and placed Inside the cornerstone, which Is then sealed "with cement, i In Europe It Is a part of the busi ness of inonarehs to lay cornerstones. In this country the services of a presi dent are always In demand for the pur pose, If obtainable. On -a conspicuous corner In Washington Is a cornerstone laid by Mr. Taft when he was presi dent. It was meant for a church that remains yet unbuilt. Colonel Roosevelt, when president, laid the cornerstone of the Masonic temple' In Washington. Oddly enough It was 30 feet In the air at the time of the ceremony, upheld by timbers, the ground beneath It having been dug away to that depth. But It was neces sary to grab the president while the grabbing was good. Feeding Pigs by Machinery. A hogmeter is "not a motor-hog; It Is a pig self-feeder. Two of these Ingenious Inventions have been tried by the Western Australian minister for agriculture on his farm, with eminent ly satisfactory result's. The machine Is a combination of a hopper, a grioder, and a ^ellvery plat form, which has ten divisions. The ground wheat Is equally, distributed by delivery chutes. The snouting Instinct of the pig has been requisitioned to supply the motive power, the divisions on the platform being so arranged that the animal, In trying to snout It out of the way for more feed, forces the platform round, thus grinding for Itseli more wheat, whloh fails Tn~the next and succeeding divisions, and so on. Ten pigs can fed at the same time There Is no waste. The pig does not crush more than he can eat, and he cannot possibly eat more than he crushes. Buried Treasures In Arizona. What Is believed to be the first clue to the reputed burled treasure's of the padres of the Tumacacori mission, built by the Spanish JCsults high up in the Tumacacor! mountains, less than three hours' Journey from Tucson. Ariz., has been discovered by Frank Plnckley, custodian of the ruins. It Is the gateway to the mission cemeierv. From this gateway, it Is said, the plans and maps left by the padres start to outline the way to the burled gold and silver. The Tumacacori mission was built near what are believed to be the ruins of one of I he Seven Cities of Cibola. The center region is paid to show evl donees of rich mineral deposits, which declare those who have Inspected the mountains, doubtless led the padres to build thfHr mlsslt/n there. 8t ill.

A committee composed of Granger, Charles Gibbons anil John Hubert was named to consult an attorney . with a view to Instituting suit against Guy W. Caron, the 'head of the company op erating the hog farm, for damages for time lost by the men. State Mine In spector Thomas Wright has posted a notice at the mine, which la three blocks from the hog farm, that the men are not allowed to go down if the odor from the farm penetrates the mine. Steps to restrain the company from operating the farm are to be taken, by the city of Belleville In Injunction pro ceedings which will be filed shortly. There are from 4,000 to 6,000 hogs at the farm, a half mile south of Belle ville, where St. Louis garbage Is fed. REVIVE RITES OF DRUIDS Many Welshmen Take Part In Ancient Ceremonies in Pittsburgh Park. Pittsburgh, Pa. ? Ancient Druldlc rites were revived at the annual con clave of the American Gorsedd here. Tho ceremonies took plnce In Scbenley park. More than 2,000 Welshmen from all parts of the country and a number from foreign countries were present. Rev. William Surdlval of Middle point, O., the American Archdruld, con ducted the ceremonies. In the midst of a circle Composed of unhewn pil ars the archdruld stood on the Logan stone. In front of the unhewn pillars an officer was stationed. All the offi cers appeqred In the old Druldlc robes and thd accompaniment to all musical selections was by harpist. The prin cipal feature of the ceremonies was the unsheathing of the sword, an an cient custom which has been traced back to 1,700 years before the Chris tian era. Among the more prominent guests of honor were Hon. James T. Thom as, member of English parliament and leader of the labor party in Great Britain, and Sir Joseph Dayles, also a member of parliament and former sec retary to Lloyd George.
