TALKS FOR THE HOME
What an Eastern Exchange Has to Say
About the Home.

Mr.. J. H. Mccall of the Kansas Free
mason handed in a clipping last night
from an eastern exchange which speaks
for the new Masonic Home. 1t says:
1.-The AIaSons of Wichita promised to
extend TO the Masonic Home, If located
at Wichita, $1,000 per annum for five
years. Wichita was selected, property
purchased, when the board of directors
of the Home demanded the security for
the subscription. Lo and behold, the
Masonic bodies were not built that way,
but instead of stringing out the pay
ments as promised, they presented the
directors with the whole amount in
cash-five thousand dollars. These
Kansas Masons can be depended upon
every time, and especially is this true
of the Wichita Masons

squatters Ordered 70 nIore.

ALBANY, Dec. 10-The hundreds of
squatters on state lands within the forest
preserve must surrender their possessions
thereon or remove them At the meeting
of the state fisheries, game and forestry
commission superintendent Fox of the
forest preserve submitted a list of such
squatters. The commission has been con-
sidering this question for some time, and
after consultation with Attorney General
Hancock and State Comptroller Roberts il
adopted resolution directing that the
squatters bo informed that they must va
cate the lands and islands now occupied
by them. 1t was intended in some cases to
lease to the squatters thqSand now occu-
pied by them if the people at the last cleo
tion had approved the proposed amend
ment to the constitution authorizing tho
commission to lease not exceeding five
acres Of state forest lands to any one per-
son. AS the verdict of the people was so
emphatic against the proposition nothing
was left for the commission to do but to
take the action it did.

LABRADOR DOGS.
How a humber Of Them Went on su I'm
promptu Hunt.

How n Number of Them Went on fn I'm
profnptu Hunt.
The dogs Of Labrador are not only
most useful as draft animals, but for
hunting as we'll A writer in Forest
and Stream, who has spent several sea-
Sofa IN Labrador relates rather thrill
Ing experience with a team of these
dogs, who, he says, trot along content
edly enough so long as there IS no gamo
in sight but the moment they scont
game they seem to conclude that drag
ging sled is for them merely q side is
sue; that their actual mission in life is
to 90 after the game whenever it is
within range. Ho says;
"A thaw had becn followed by a
frost, and the snow covering the ice on
tho lakes was frozen hard. So four Of
our party got on the sleigh to have a
final drive. They started in great glee,
and just as they rounded the first point
they saw fine young caribou buck
about 500 yards ahead. as soon as the
dogs saw it they gave yolp like pack
Of wolves and started like an arrow
from a bow after the caribou, which
looked round ON hearing the yelp saw
its pursuers aud few over the ice, keep
ing in the middle os the lake. When tho
dogs started with a jerk, one Of the party
was thrown of violently and slid long
way on the hard snow before ho could
pull up, feeling redhot from the frio-
tion and gazing wistfully after bis fast
disappearing comrades, who clung TO
the sleigh like grim death and enjoyed
this novel hunt. OF course, there wac
not the slightest chance cf their catch
ing the animal, which, instead Of maxi
ing for the bush on the nearest shore,
held on in the middle of the lake, right
up to the end, where it took to the
woods. The impromptu hunters soon
found themselves in a difficulty, for it
was impossible TO stop the dogs, who
could not realize that they had sleigh
behind them with passengers. The
driver tried in vain TO stop them, and
there was every probability Of brokon
limbs or necks when they would strike
the bush. However, they soon made up
their minds and dropped off one by one,
rolling over and over ia the SNOW, or
sliding some distance away, with much
damage to their neither garments and
much abrasion of the cuticla. Mean
/ while the dogs, relieved of the weight,
rushed after the deer, and, entering the
weeds, got tangled UP among tie trees,
ard, as usual on such occasions, wound
up with FREQ fight among themselves
