straight -forward and honest and re-
liable in all his affairs. The whole vi-

Drilling New Salt Well.—Rapid
progress is being made in dellling the
new salt well at the plant of the God,
Crich Salt. Co. Some mouths ago in
replacing a easing of a well which had
been in service for many years, a
large steel wrench such as is used in
tightening sections of casing, was in-
advertently dropped down the ,opeai
ing. A great deal of time and. money
Was spent in anendeavor to recover
the missing toot but without success.
Finally it was decided to drill an en-
tirely new well This is being done at
a ;point abouit 1115 to '0 feet from the
old well in order to take advantage of
the huge pool which. must have been
formed in the salt deposit from three
generations of pumping. Progress at
the rate of :about 100 feet a day is
being made. If no unusual obstruc-
tion is encountered it is likely that the
well 111!!
have been drilled to the
required depth of some 11600 feet be-
fore the first of August. The old well
has been. abandoned, at least temp-
orarily, although it may he found
desirable to make another attempt
later to paste a way through the
crumpled casting past the obstruct-
ing wrench. By drilling close to the
old well it is expected that the new
source of supply will make it possible
to go into full production immediate-
ly. Ordinarily it requires front one to
two years to dissolve a cavity in the
hard salt strata sufficiently large to
ensure a space for the water which
must get in to create brine in ginan-
rities sufficient to keep the :pumps
aorking.

DO ANIMAleS 'TiHINK e

I had the honor once to be owned
by a dog. He was an ilrielt setter, II t
acquired this dog when he was a r
pappy, and sought to prove my
"thought theory which I have held
maty years, and itt which 11 acct a
firm believer, and (1 'believe scores of
utv readers will recall in their asvit ex-
periences proofs that to them are
positive,
This animal- answered to the name
of ''Rover" ay. his training took
great •care always to treat thin.; icindl'y.
Of a whip he was ignorant, tI talked
to hint as I tw-ouid to a human ibeing.
When he_..did .well lh praised him,
When he was at fault, I sought to
treason ssbu hint. (Never .was 'he olel
treated. On the theory that -he could
be reasoned with, 1 began at an early
ago to impress Upon- hits absolute 'ob-
edience. ll -le would 'make mistakes in
his training. now' and then, but a Mi-
noan being, who is supposed to pos-
scan intellect, does this, why then.
should a dog be criticized, if he too
occasiotnally errs, in being taught?
Under my kindly treatment, the
dog developed what I then claimed,
and still claim to he great intellig-
ence.'Often wdteet afield .,with my dog,
I have, 'wholly unknown to him,
dropped a handkerchief, and, con-
tinuing :on for fully a mile have call-
ed the dog to ire and whispered in.
Isis ear, confidentially:
"Rower ,master has dropped his
handkerchief somewhere ,back there,
will you 'Gad it for rte?
Without hesitation, 'Rover tyon:,1
take the back track and shortly after
would conte bounding back, holding
the handkerchief in 'Itis mouth.
At times 1 w^otiid vary the experi-
ment by dropping some other object,
telling tits dug the object wanted. Al-
ways he would search and return to
in the article 1 had asked hint to -find.
Oiler in the presence of witnesses
I have hidden a ball or any other ob-
ject in a roost, of which the dog had
no know':edge.—perhaps had never
before been in that h.nise. Being
brought infrom a neighboring room
I have told the dog: "'Rover, in this
roost, somewhere. there is is ball," „r
whatever it was 1 desired him to find,
"that master has hidden. Find it and
bring it to, mel" Within a short time
the desired article would be foetid by
Rover and brought to me.
He knew tite value of money, to a
eer'cin extent. Often ill the presence
of ssituesses, I have take:: a small
coin and a larger coin, and shoning
to hint both ruins would say, "Rover,
here are two piece51 ns.tney. Which.t1 tIte.e would buy you file larger
Piece of meat loneealMg the
money iu any Ita::ti; behind me, and
then bringing them forward, 1 would
say, "Cotte, now, pick oat the stoney
that will. buy tate most metra"
The dog wont.1 sniff at each hand
and finally try with his teeth to open
the haul boldin, the coin of highest
value. '1 have varied this by substitut-
ing a dollar hill for . half a dollar
piece, a quartet'- for a nickel. revaria-
bly- tite result won d be the same.
To further prove this dog's patter
of thought, let me illustrate it in an-
other way, I .was on the staff
01 a morning ttew's;,ap er. My' aesigtt-
meut route covered police headquart-
ers; tnuttieipal departments, including
fire and city hall and at times cations
banquets, and the taking of public
speeches on varied occasions. It is im-
portant that a man covering smelt as-
signments at night should be within
reply touch of the city desk, that his
city or night editor Wright in at em-
ergency reach him promptly.
IOn these nig,htly rounds my dog
Rover has almost my shadow, He
.was known to the head's of all the
muuieipal departments from daily or
nightly association with me. Around
his neck was fastened a small rubber
pouch. ,Often I have put manuscript
itt this pouch and told the dog to de-
liver it at the newspaper office. Al-
ways he etas faithful ie carrying out
ihstructione. On reaching the office he
would report to the city desk, never
loitering on the way. To the city edi-
tor he would give a subdued bark for
recognition. On the copy being re-
moved, and the command. "Go back
to your master," being given, the clog
would ,give an Impatient bark, as
though there had been an omission.
Finally the city editor would remark,
.Oh,- you are awaiting your O.K. ?
Is that it?" aN. hark in acknowledg-
ment, the placing of the O. R. in the
pouch, and -away would bound the
dog, but ioever tvitissut that 'O.'i0. of
acknoiwtedgntent of a faithful per-
formance of duty. Wherever I might
have gone. that I:now•ing clog twoukl
search tote out, ready for further ser-
vice. It mattered not where 1: went,
that dog always found the, and in-
sisted on my removing . from his
poach: the'O,K, which signified a duty
he had performed as per instructions
given. hilt..
