TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, OCTOBER 26, 1Ô11 FOUR IN OLD PERU. FUNERAL TORTURE. Th* Mystic Number About Which Can tered All Thair Baiiafa. The Peruvians cared nothlDg for any of tbe supposed mystic properties of either three, five or seven. To them tbe four was sscred. and around It they Intwtued the main features of all tbeir religious ceremonies and queer beliefs. They believed tbe earth j to be a square divided into four part* nnd sus|>ended from the heaven* by ' four cords, one at each of tbe four ¡corners. All of their cities were quar tered by four principal streets running from a square Io tbe center. They ( held four annual feasts in honor of tbe moon. the "silver sister of tbe sun." To them eternity was to be divided Into four periods of time, each com posed of four times 4.000 years, and at tbe end of each of these cycles tbe sun was to be blotted out of existence. They prayed to the four winds, or to "ye , gods that dwell at tbe four corners of 1 tbe earth.” To them the rains came from four enormous heavenly turtles that vomited dampness, nud tbe four winds from tbe lungs of tbe four gl- gautlc caryatids which stand at tbe four cardinal points of paradise.
