There were curious corridors, appar-

yards into the mountain side and
then ended. What are these for?'
asked. For nothing, was the re-
ply. Certain spots were said to be
holy, but why the priest could not or
would not tell.
Lady Abbess of the Nuns of Satan.
AS they passed out of the temple
they were joined by an elderly wo-
man in white, who appeared to be
the lady abbess of the nuns of satan.
In the courts and corridors of the
temple lamps were kept burning con-
tinualIy. At night an attendant went
round the little valley with bowl of
oil and wicks, kindling a momentary
flame at the doors of the shrines and
huts and certain sacred springs. This
rite, the high priest explained, was
one which gave much qualification
to his Satanic ma jesty.

THE SECRET OF DRY FARMING
Why Farmers Where IL Rains Once
Year Can Raise Crops. Water
Stored in the Earth.

When rain falls it does not actual
~ soak into the earth, but bores its
way in, forming tiny tubes. These
tubes are so small that it would be
impossible to insert hair in one OF
them without bursting its walls.
Sometimes the tubes are bored down
to depth of four or five feet. When
the surface dries the water evapor-
ates from the tubes just as it would
from a pipe. If the tube is twisted
it takes longer for the water to evap-
crate. If one takes rake and stlrs
the ground after each rain he breaks
the top of the tubes, and the water
will stand in them for months. In
this way the farmers of the West, on
the semi-arid lands, store the RAIN
fall one year, and raise a crop OF
wheat every other year-there being
sufficient water in two years, but not
enough in one, to raise crop.a

HEN PICKED FOR 20 YEARS
ST. LOUIS MAN INDUCED IN A
PICTURESQUE 3O-DAY REVOLT.
In His Manly Stride There's No Long
er Fear of WifeIy Wrath. Has
Shown Her Thing or Two.


ST. LOUIS.-For twenty long,
embarrassing years Charles Scho-
raider, a st. Louis resident, had been
bossed and hen-pecked. Outwardly,
at. least he bore the sings and ar
rows of outrageous fortune meekly,
uncomplainingly, making no answer
when with sickening frequency the
walls of wifely wrath were poured on
his weary head and refraining nobly
from smashing dishes, kicking the
cat and slamming doors as slight ev-
licences of his fraZZled condition. But
finally the worm turned, and snarl-
ing as only human worm which has
been stepped on just once too often
can proceeded to show his better half
a thing or two.
The first thing he did-this was
about a month agO-was to go down
town and get drunk-fearfully and
frightfully drunk. AS he had al
ways prided himself on being a total
abstainer and was, therefore, quite
unused to intoxicants it didn't take a
whole lot to put Mr. Schorader into
a condition which BODIED i'll for any
one who interfered with his plans.
This seems to have been recognized,
for during the time which he spent
in the vicinity of a downtown cafe,

lock, he was treated with distinct
politeness. On the third day, when

marched and there awaited the TRADE
which he knew was as certain as the
going down of the sun or the rising

not with the old-time patient endur-
ance but with a resounding slap--a
slap which in effective qualities left
nothing to be desired. He followed

For three weeks Schorader kept
them under lock and key, bringing
them food whenever he felt so dis
posed. His wife, heretofore the most
militant of ladies, seemed utterly
cowed and dazed by the ferocious
husband of hers and made not the
slightest resistance. Finally neigh
bors complained to the authorities
and warrant was issued, but before
it was served Schorader decided it
was time to quit his career as jailer,

HAVE TEMPLE TO SATAN WHERE
THE EVIL ONE is ADORED AS
king PEACOCK"

To commemorate the Delhi Dur
bar curio dealer at Delhi, the busl-
ness successor to the original of Mr.,
Isaacs" in Marion Crawford's famous
Indian novel, presented to the British
museum in London a beautiful pea
cock cunningly fashioned of steel and
supposed to be worth some thousands
of pounds 1t was represented as
one of the sacred ones which, as
effigies of the Evil One in new
guise, are worshipped by the Yeze-
dis, tribe who live in Mesopotam1a'
where the Garden of Eden is suppos-
ed to have been located, and whose
creed is about the queerest ever held
by human beings.
King Peacock.
The Yezedis are worshippers OF the
devil They like to imagine MIN as
a powerful prince, who, eventually
is going to be welcomed back to
heaven, and they prefer to represent
him, not as a serpent-the form
which he is supposed to have taken
on a historic occasion not many nun
dred miles away from their own
country-but as one of the most re-
splendent of living creatures, the pea
cock. The title they give MIN Is
Malik-i-Tawus, or king PEACOCK.
They are also worshipers of the sun
and fire. but Satan, of whom they are
desperately afraid, is their chlet uei-
ty, and rude effigies of King Peacock
are carried by their priests from VII
lage to village, the inhabitants Oh
which PROSTATE themselves before
them. Whenever any calamity
threatens the country-which is pref
ty often, as the Yezedis, on account
Of their devil worship, are hated Dy

men of the tribe to sacrifice thelF

! ed domes or spires over what | be-
| lieve to be the tombs of Sheikh Adj,
! the Prophet of Yezedis, and other
saints. On the cutter door was carv-
| ed a serpent and a comb-yes, an
ordinary hair comb. AS | dismount-
ed the high priest of the temple, a
turbaned, white-bearded man of great
age, came forward and bade me well
come in the Kurdish dialect, which
my interpreter translated. l had had
the forethought, by the way, to have
nothing blue about me, a color for
which, for some unexplained reason,
the Yezedis have the greatest hor-
Tor.
After the visitor had refreshed the
inner man and made himself COM

Joined him beside the camp fire, and
there as the night fell and the east
ern moon flooded the glen with a
ghostly light he told Riley as much
as he could or would of the queer
creed of his people. And as he
talked there came from the temple
at regular intervals long, mournful
walls, which made my blood run cold,
but which I thought it discreet not
to inquire into. They went on all
night.
Satan to Return to Heaven.
There was a queer flavor of Para
disc Lost about what the high priest
told me of the devil worshipers'
creed. According to their belief Sa-
tan, or Sheitan, as they call him, is
the first and chief of seven great
spirits created by God. Each of these
great powers is to reign 10000 years.
The devil is the first occupant of the
throne and 1000 years of his sover-
eighty are yet to run. Just who is to
succeed him the Yezedis aren't sure,
but Satan, they believe, is to go back
to heaven and there will receive
great honor. The name of Sheitan
must never be uttered in the pres
ence of the Yezedis and one must
take care, too, not to use words which
by their sounds or even by the let
tiers they contain suggest reference
to the cursed one. Only aa King
Peacock must this great and illus
trious prince be spoken OF in the
presence of his worshipers-"
The Temple of the Devil
In the morning the old priest took
the traveller from end to end of the
temple of the devil Its two naves,
said Riley, 'were separated by q col
onade of arches, and just inside the
doorway was a great tank into which
water, conducted from the hillside,
poured and foamed. As We entered
there was a yell of rage and mad
man who had been crouching on the
floor sprang at me, snarling, glazing
and shaking the long hair that fell
to his shoulders. He seemed on the
point of attacking me, and I was
badly scared, but the old priest
stepped quietly between us and with
a word sent him covering to his
mat. 1t was this mailman who made
night hideous with his screams. Apart
from him the temple was absolutely
empty, except for catafalque, which
was covered with shawls, as the Mo
hammedans always cover the tombs
of gerat personages.

priest. Sheikh Adi?' I asked.
