Training an Esquimau Dog.

The Esquimau begins to trail his
dog for sledge work before it is
month old One of the most inter-
e5ting features of Esquomau villa
ges ere puppies Eel to the pole of a
tent They pail on the rope with all
their puppy strength in the effort
TO b"eak away and join in the frolics
of their elders.
Not until a dog bred for mail
service Is one year old is Il put In
training for the trail. II begins by
running ten miles with the team,
then II Is dropped out Next day
II runs the same distance. Gradually
ly the distance is increased until Il
reacto3 II fifteenth month of life.
when II becomes part of the regular
service. The lift OF a mail dog Is
from three to four years. No great
er punishment can be inflicted than
to lay a dog off from service. When
anruly they are often threatend
with a lay-off, and with almost HUI
man intelligence they seem to un-
derstand the disgrace Il implies In
the eyes OF their fellow-workers on
the trail All fight to be leaders.
"A constant spur to an unambitious
dog Is the outsider" who will
quickly take away the leadership
not only in the mail service, but In
teams maintained chiefly for the
pleasure OF the sport. The intelli-
gence of the malamute is remark
able, its scent wonderful, its in
stinct, as rule, unerring.
Some dogs are better trail fol-
lowers than others, as some are bet
ter leaders. In q blizzard the best
of them lose the trail, but invariab-
ly find it. when on the trail they
never eat but once q day, then at
the end of a journey. After feeding
like weary children thoy fall asleep
and are never quarrelsome. IL takes
on an average twenty pounds OF
food a day for a team OF eleven
dogs on a hard route.-Lida Rose
McCabo I'm st. Nicholas.

sedimentary rocks, forming the
hnmps, or buttes and from which
the softer covering is more or less
eroded. The surface cooling quick
ly forms a sort of blanket OF am
orphous igneous matter covering
the done-like structure. The inner
core cooling more slowly crystal
lizes into hexagonal prisms and con-
tracts. lleaving interstices between
the columns, or lenucular forma-
tion, and also pulls away in places
from the blanket above, leaving dis
tinct hollovs, or small cavities
which give forth the sound which
our people have noted, and reasoned
that there was cave inside the
butte; and upon which we built up
our april Fool" story. II wonld
be a waste of time and energy to
put a drill into the butte for ex-
ploring purposes. There is no cave
hhere of any considerable extent.
but II will be found that the whole
structure is the same as may be
seen where there are now taking out
the rock for crushing for our street
paving. Large six-sided basaltic
columns or prisms are standing on
end, or nearly so, and fitting against
each other In regular formation.
There are many OF these peculiar
laccollths in many parts OF the
world, but the most notable exam
pie. perhaps. is the Devils Tower
near Sundance. Wyoming. which is
great wonder, visited by scientists
all over the world. Like a monster
stump covering 90 or 80 acres at
the base, II rises 10 a sheer perpen-
dioular height OF over 700 feet and
looks like n great pile OF logs set
on end, fitted together and bound
by some peculiar force. II can be
seen at a distance OF so or 60 miles
In any direction on the undulating
surface where II stands: but IL
northwest OF the Black Hills. South
Dakota. and during their uplift, II
was formed In much the same man
ner as our SINNERS butte and 9th
ers in this locality, but as that is
a much older country. geologIcally
speaking. than this, there has been
more erosion and Il stands out more
prominently.
There can be no question abont
tho formation OF Skinner's butte.
for II is plainly nothing more Eor
less than a loccolith.

Chinese Iron for American Market

Chinese Iron for American Market.
In calling attention to the tenden-
cy in the Chinese empire toward the
production of commodities heretb-
fore imported and to getting a foot
hold therefor in foreign markets,
Consul General aCharles DENLY of
Shanghai, deals at some length with
the present and prospective ex-
ports of Chinese pig iron to the
United States:
An occasional shipment of pig
iron from China. to the United
States marks the beginning of a
commercial movement which is wor-
thy of attention. An American COM
pany operating a number of trans
pacific steamships under the British
flag has the agency of the Chinese
furnaces for the supply of the Pa
cific Cocst. Occasional small guam
titles of pig iron are delivered at
San Francisco by these vessels, as
well as by the Pacific Mail steam
ships.
The only shipment to the Allan
tic coast of which | have been able
to obtain definite knowledge Is n
cargo OF 1900 tons shipped on July
3, 1907, from Hankow direct to
Brooklyn. The price laid down in
Brooklyn Is said TO have been
$3.50 gold per ton, including the
freight. S4.75 per ton from Hankow
to destination.
This event Is indicative OF such
far-reaching potentialities that II
merits the attention of the iron in
dustrics OF the United States. The
carrying Of such a commodity as
pig iron coo miles down the Yang
TIE river, from Hanyang 10 the sea,
and then $4,000 miles farther, via
Suez, and laying it down at New
York In competition with American
on GO. IS In ct n sti liking instance
OF modern trade development. This
OF course, Is only possible throngh
the fact that ocean-going ships can
reach Hanyang with eighteen feet
draft at almost all seasons OF the
yecr, permitting the carriage OF
cargoes OF about 1000 tons without
trans hipment, and TO the fact that
iron is found In great quantities In
China, and produced under favor
able conditions as TO coal and labor.
The most promising ore fields in
China are situated In the vicinity
OF Hankow, lying In the provinces
OF Human, Hupeh and Klangsi.
Those OF Shansi and Human. cover ed
by concessions 20 the Peklng syn
dicate, while regarded as Of almost
indefinite richness, have not yet
been commercially exploited on a
large scale.
II Is worthy OF note that the HUI
nfn md KianCsi fields were explor-
ed by American survey party which
In lS9S-99 made the preliminary ex-
for the line OF railway
from Hankow 10 Canton, which an
American syndicate had contracted
TO construct.
The coke from the coal mines OF
Pinghsiang, in Kiangsi, near the
border of Human, and the ore from
the adjaceEt iron mir's are used
for tho manufacture of steel at the

A SKETCH OF sKINNER's BUTTE
From the Standpoint of n Student
OF Geology Known as a Ia
colith.

(J. T.. Moore IN Eugene Reglster)
This section OF the country was
formed by natural forces which abb
solutely preclude the idea OF caves
of any great extent. IL is we'll
known that caves are formed by
underground streams In limestone
countries, the water taking into so
luton the soluble carbonates or sui
pilates OF lime and thus leaving
large cavities in the earth, from
which the water is afterwards shut
on. This particular part OF the coast
country is almost entirely OF igne-
Gus origin and rocks are OF that
character, with the exception of the
sedimentary sandstone in the lower
attitudes OF the Willamette valley
formed from the deposits of the
brackish waters of an arm OF the
sea, which then covered this local
.ity. The forces that must have been
at work in the forming of the Cas-
cade range and contiguous uplifts,
staggers the imagination and the
student of natural dynamics IS al
most overwhelmed the more he
delyes into the subject. The over
flow of lava covering the region
reaching far 10 the eastward from
the summit of the range and also
flowing down the western slope, is
something simply remarkable. II Is
a geological demonstration 10 which
the catac'ysmists point with assu-
rance In their controversy with the
evolutiOnists. This lava flow, then
I'm a large measure the oyerlaying
rock OF this whole section will be
noticed by the drift. boulders and
pebbles I'm the wash OF the streams.
During the period of its. being
forced from the interior OF the
earth. the whole crust was more or
less heayed and broken by the tre-
mendous energy exerted, (prObably
by the subsidence OF the bed Of the
Pacific ocean) and there were many
lateral fissures and cracks made al
some distance from the line OF the
greatest pressure. the summit Of
the Cascades. Through these cracks
and fissures there was forced
through more or less molten fused
matter and these formed the var
ious buttes 20 be found scattered
about over the valley
There. are many OF them besides

the river is the Gillespie butte. Fur
ther down the valley, many OF them
may be seen scattered about at ir-
regular intervals. but all are the
same general formation. The for
