LEAC0CK HAD OTHER PLANS
Distinct Reason Why In Death He
Could Not Lie Beside Lord
Strathcona.

G. b. Burgin, in his recently pub
llshed Memoirs" relates the follow
ing anecdote: A short time ago Ste
phen Leacock was the guest of lit
erary club to which l belong, and
when was called on to speak ex-
planned how that morning ! had been
walking in Hlghgate cemetery and
paused by the tomb Of Lord Strath-
coma. One of the cemetery custodians
Joined me, and said, regretfully, Lord
Strathcona's the only distinguished
Canadian we have here" Then he
frightened up a little. "But there's a
vacant lot beside his lordship."
Whereupon l explained to him curl
ously enough that was going to meet
another distinguished Canadian that
evening, and would try to induce him
to make the necessary arrangements
for occupying the vacant space by
Lord Strathcona. Leacock listened to
this with strained attention. On rising
to reply, he disregarded the points
made by the other speakers, and said:
whilst I am deeply grateful to Mr..
Burgln for his thoughtful arrange
ments regarding my obsequies, re-
greet to inform him that they will have
to he cancelled, as have already de-
cided to be buried In Westminster alb

REPRESENTS THE SUN-GOD
Fire-Worshlpers Held Belief That
Flames Were the Emblem Of
Deity on the Earth.

Flre-wOrship and legends associated
with the origin Of fire have existed
since the earliest times. In many cases
fire-wOrship was associated with sun
worship, and fire was regarded as the
earthly representative OF the sun-god.
A common feature Of such worship
was the practice OF preserving "sa-
cred fires" In the temples.
The religion Of ZOrOaster, known
also as Persian sun-worshIp, Is Of cx-
tremely ancient origin, but persists to
this day. When the Parsees fled from
Persia to India In the Eighth century,
they carried with them their sacred
fires, which are said to have been kept
burning ever since. Other famous ex-
amples Of the generation Of fire are
found In the sacred flames" Of the
Vestal virgins In ancient Rome, and
the "fire affairs" maintained by the
Aztecs.
North American Indians attributed
the origin Of fire to various animals
which, according to tribal legends, first
showed their far-Off ancestors how to
make 1.-THE buffalo by striking sparks
from stones with It's hoofs, and the
panther by scratching the rocky hill
sides with its sharp claws.

FIGHT NINE FIRES WITH MUD
Experience Has Shown That 10 as
Practical a Method as Any
Known.

Fighting fires In mines is slow,
tedious job and since the dawning Of
mining has been considered almost a
hopeless undertaking. Rich mines In
many parts of the world have been
burning for generations. Underground
fires no longer are considered un-
Quenchable. In the Butte district a
process of fire fighting has been de
veloped by Il mining company which Is
salvaglng an ore body Of tremendous
extent. Fires that have been burning
for 10 years In three connecting mines
are being smothered under 100000
tons Of mud.
At the end of 1922 100000 tons Of
metalllferous ore, containing, accord
ing expert estimates, at least 3d.
900 tons Of copper, once more will be
accessible.
Sand, decomposed rock and other
materials which came originally from
the slopes and we're discarded as tall
lngs in the process OF copper extrac-
ton, simply have been turned back
into the fire area. Water, which in
many cases has proved Its uselessness
as an extlnguisher Of underground
nres, IS USED Tor tAhnsportution. y
regions acSs : ZOO 70 ~ feet under.
ground, where the soupllke slime fills
the abandoned drifts, cross-cuts and
slopes and literally smothers the fire.

Interesting to AreheoIou

A Roman-Brltlsh grave has just
been discovered on Ham hill, SOmer
set, England. On the east side OF the
Roman encampment was unearthed
the complete skeleton of young
adult, probably male. The grave
was about two feet In depth, lying due
north and south, the head and shout
ders being inclosed by slabs Of Ham
stone. On the right OF the head lay
shallow dish OF Roman-Brltlsh black
pottery. This was broken in three
places, probably by the super-encum-
bent EARTH but with the exception Of
n small portion Of the rim It was pos
slble to restore It. Near the head lay
a crude and barbarous copy Of a Third
or Fourth century A. ID. Roman brass
coin. This had probably been placed
In the mouth to enable the dead man
TO pny his fare to Charon, the ferry
man, for taking him across the Styx.
Near the right hand Of the skeleton
lay an oval hammer stone or FOUNDER.
