JUDGE BURFORD'S DECISION
On Council Bill No. ~ FOrecasted as
Against Its Validity.

Guthrie, o. T., April -CSpeciaL)-Judge
Burford did not hand down a decision to-
day as to the validity Of "Council bill
No. g" but expects to do so tonight or
in the morning. 1t is clearly settled in
his mind, however, that it is the general
legislative rule that a vote to reconsider
a vetoed bill cannot be taken more than
once. and if the settled parliamentary
practice has the force and effect of law it
follows that the bill was not passed over
the governors veto, and consequently is
not the law Of the territory.

Cave dwellers.. or. to be exact, earth
or rock dwellers, are not yet extinct. A
traveller who visited the prehistoric
cave dwellings near Halberstadt. in the
Harz mountains, found in the nearby
village of Langenstein ten caves hewn
in the rock and occupied by 40 persons.
This little settlement is built on the
slope of a rocky hill near the village.
The fronts of the dwellings were made
by cutting vertical face in the rock.
Each house" has door and one VIM
dow. The first house was constructed
only 40 years ago by a young married
couple who were too poor to pay their
rent in the village. The rock houses
are warm IN winter ana cool in sum-
mer. They are quite healthful, accord
ing ito the testimony of their inhab-
itants. whose stout limbs and red
cheeks vouch for the truth Of their
statements.-N. Z. Herald.
