AN ANCIENT MASONIC RING

LONDON.-In answer to a question
by aq American Mason information
has been communicated through the
Northants and Hunts Masters Lodge
and the Peterborough Masonic Mu-
scum society regarding a ring found
in the River Meme in 1855. The ring
is known as the Abbot's ring, and
carries an engraving Of an intertwin-
ed symbol known as Solomon's Knot
This was one of the iisting1i hing
badge Of the Comacine Masons, Clio
forerunners of modern Ereenas s8nrg,
and symbolizes the divine inscTueibl
ity without beginning ana without end
The ring was probably dropped into
the river when the first Saxon church
at Peterborough was ransacked by
the Danes in $40. The work Of the
Comacine Masons bears the stamp of
Solomon's Knot, which is develop
rnent Of the four-limhed eros or
wastika, a very ancient sign found
ia Persia, Inlia, PERI, Greece, Mex-
81, Scans.inavia and ca pre- Il so1als4n
york in the British Isles. It is fbe
ign universal Of anci ient Masonic
Guilds and is one OF the well known
symbols of modern Masonry.

The herd now comprises 40 or more
buffalo, some of them weighing close
to q ton. Owens occasionally sells
one to a Snowman or geological park,
and once in long while to hunter
eager for the head and hide as tro-
ply. Last year he sold two to hunt
ers, for $3.50 apiece, letting them do
their own killing. The big problem In
caring for the herd is lack of water.
The attempt to cross buffalo and
cattle has not proven successful. The
resultant animal, named cattlelo, did
not thrive and no further attempt is
being made in that direction.
The road through the forest to the
north rim of the canyon was built by
the forest service. There is no regu-

camps are for summer only, as the
elevation, 5000 feet, is too great fol
winter use, because Of heavy SHOWS
and cold.

toward the west, where it is lower

PROPOSED WAYS
TO INSURE PEACE

Secretary of State Charles E.
Hughes, speaking before the Canadian
Bar association, found that only in a
getting back to the old idea of COM
Dlete respect for law, could a lasting
peace be obtained. Mr.. Hughes stat
ed that ito abandon the struggle to-
ward peace was to admit TIE failure
of civilization. The sentiment OF the
people of every nation must be behind
any concerted effort for world peace.
Ali the measures ever thought OF Tor
the establishment of peace depended
for their success on the will to peace
Of the people behind them.
"The only way, therefore, and the
way that leaders of men must follow
to lead humanity to peace, is the cultl-
vation afresh of that sense, almost
lost during the great war, Of respect
for law for its own sake, regardless
Of the force behind it. When the sem
timent of the people Of the world fa-
vors obedience to law, then Internal
ional laws may rule the world in
peace. Without that sentiment no ar
fificial means would be effective"
Professor Charles E. Merriam, chair
of political science of the University
of Chicago, in speech made before
the conference on political science,
held at the University Of Wisconsin,
said:
"There have been three great
scourges in the history Of mankind
pestilence, famine and war. The first
two have practically disappeared
among civilized people by slnalyzing,
studying and circumventillg them
Why is war any less susceptible to

PROMINENT HOLBROOK
CITIZEN LOSES LIFE


Jay M. Patterson, a prominent citi-
zen of Holbrook, lost his life in an at
tempt to swim the Little Colorado
River at Holbrook Monday of last
week.
Having accomplished this feat sew
eral times before on different occas-
ions, he again attempted to swim the
raging torrent Monday after making
bet with some of his friends.
Jay entered the stream up near the
power plant on the north side of the
river, expecting to swim diagonally
across and land near the wagon
bridge.
1t was observed by the spectators
that as soon as Mr.. Patterson reach
ed the middle of the stream that the
current was very swift and Jay was
carried rapidly down stream missing
his objective landing place. He pass
ed under the bridge and on down
stream until he reached the Apache
railroad bridge, when he was S en- for
the last time just before passing un-
der this bridge.
Searching parties have been dilig snt
in searching the banks of the river
since the fatality, but at this writing
the body has not been found.
The three brothers of jays, Don,
Earl and Joy, have been at Holbrook
doing all in their power to try and
locate the body Of the loved brother.
At first the task was very difficult,
but now the torrent which has ragged
there for the past few days has
somewhat subsided, seaching parties
have been organized for a systematic
search, but to date no news has been
received that the search has been
fruitful.

California, during the summer
months, is one vast meadow of grass,

verse is the rule. Arizona is far pref

was in the Kevin field during the
past week looking over the situa-
tion, relative to the location of q
small refinery here.
Drilling on the Coalwood we'll,
70 miles southeast of Miles City,
has been stopped until spring.
The Gordon Campbell we'll near
Pennington is now down some
$50 feet.
Ohio-Baker we'll in 9-35-2 W
has been placed on the pump,
this well was shot recently and
has been cleaned thoroughly, the
castings have been pulled and two
inch tubing installed. This well
is estimated at about $50 barrels.
The Beck we'll in 1924 e is
now at a depth of 1892 feet.
They expect to get oil in the
Kootenai, at the base Of the
Colorado, and if not there, will
carry though to the Ellis.
The Frazer we'll in the Bears
Den, is closed down because of
the cold weather, and the want
Of casing. Casing is now being
trncked from Kevin, and they
expect to be operating within a
few days.
The Ohio-Saube we'll in sec
ton 1892 w is now estimated
at about 40 barrel well. It will |
be placed on the pump soon.
Joe Baker was in Kelvin during
the past week, and completed
plans for the drilling out Of his

his drilling apparatus is already +

material is on the road. Baker

to Great Falls and intermediate
points.
The company officials have
taken S1.80 a barrel as probably
the maximum price that would
be paid. At this rate, they an
ticipate that the crude can be
used with a saving of about 81
or $1.50 a ton under its present
fuel cost.
Success Of the use of crude as
a fuel at Waller is regarded as
in that it will be a test
of the possibilities of crude as a
fuel in other commercial plants
and shops in the northern part
Of the state and in Great Falls.

SHORT NEWS OF THE FIELD

The Spokane-Sweet Grass we'll
in section 27-32-1 W found the
Ellis sand without oil at the depth
of 1445 feet, They drilled on
down to the Madison lime where
sulpher water was encountered
with a small showing Of oil.
They expect TO drill to the 1000
foot mark if production is not
found before that depth is reach
ed. The lease contract provides
that the well be carried to 1000
feet or another well drilled.
This well hit a flow Of dry gas
in the Kootenai formation, which
was estimated at three million
cubic feet.

Court Sets Aside
The Solberg Case

The dismissal Of the Solberg
lease case, will serve to clear up a
lot Of litigation in the Kevin-Sun-
burst field. Much of the develop
ment work of the Sunburst compa-
ny has depended ON the termination
Of this case. Interesting figures as
to the amount expended by com
panies operating in this field was
brought out at this trial. The Sun
burst company has expended $780,
600 and are ready to double their
development work this year. The
Campbell company has expended
100000 and half million by other
companies brings the grand total to!
over 81, 100000. The termination
of this litigation now opens the
way for the Sunburst company and
others to go ahead with their devel-
opment campaigns for the ensuing
season, and no doubt now exists as
to what it will be. This year will
see $2,OOO,OOO spent by these sew

Waller Power Firm
Tests Kelvin Crude

Great Falls. Possibilities for
Kevin crude oil as a fuel in com
mercial plants will be given a
test by the water and power COM
pany Of Waller, according to c..
A. Stowell of the plant, who was
In Great Falls to arrange the pur-
chase of the first carload Of oil.
The company has a steam
power plant for the generation
Of power for Waller and also for
pumping water for the town.
Coal has previously been used,
but the low price on Keyin crude
oil and the reduced rate n
freight from the field, induced
the company to investigate the
possibilities Of crude oil as fuel.
The company has already pur-
chased a burner Of the California
type, which is adapted to the use
of crude, rather than fuel oil.
For the first carload no tanks
will be used. but the company
will pay the demurage charge on
the car while the oil as a fuel is
being tried out. If it proves as
advantageous as anticipated, the
company will install storage
,anks.
With crude delivered to the
ar at Sanburst at a rate Of about
