Kill No Male Rats; Rodents Polygamous
 Says on Australian
Only Females Should Be De- stroyed-Others Freed
 With Short Tails

SYDNEY, New South Wales, April 2l It has been left to an Australian, William Rodier oI Sydney, to explain why rats overrun the earth. Also he tells public authorities and other rat haters that the greatest rat eXtermin- ator in the world is-the male rat.
 He has worked out his scheme as a complicated mathematical proposition, but the gist of it is that he would have no male rats killed. Rats should be caught alive and only the females de- stroyed. The males should be let go after their tails have been docked so as to show how many times they are caught.
 For the reason rats are a pest, he con tends, is that they are polygamous. Pres ent methods of catching rats result in killing mostly males In spite of the millions killed all over the world every year they grow and multiply because of the abundance of females. If the males are turned loose it would be i'm possible for them to be pest because they would be pOlyandrous.
 At least these are the arguments of this mathematical Australian. He has worked it all out and winds up with the assertion that by adopting this preserva- tive method for male rodents there would soon be wipIng out of the hated animals.

COURT OF CUSTOMS IS |NAUGURATED
 YESTERDAY
Provision of Payne-Aldrich Tariff Law Becomes Fact
 in Washington

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 2l.- No elaborate ceremony marked the formal inauguration of the new Gus toms court today, the swearing in of the justices being the only formality connected with the birth of this latest addition to the judiciary of the nation, As soOu as the judges decide on the appointment of marshal, clerk and official reporter the court will be ready for business and notification of this fact will be sent to the various tribu- nals before which customs cases are pending. Under the law, all such cases will have to be filed at once before the new judicial body.
 The establishment of the Customs court is due to provision in the Aid rich-Payne tariff law. The need of such tribunal has long been felt. For years there has existed great confusion in respect to decisions of contested eases in the cOllegtion of customs duties. There has frequently been wide vari, ance in the interpretations of the diff ferent courts in regard to the various provisions of the tariff law as applied to specific articles. It is believed that by concentrating the responsibility for deciding such eases in a single judicial body much of the confusion that arises from the variations of interpretation will be removed. The Customs court will decide all contested cases without appeal, except on questions of consti- nationality.
 The court is composed of chief justice and four associate justices, The chief justice, Robert NJ. Montgomery, comes to Washington after ten years service on the supreme bench of Michi- gan, having served in this position from 1900. His first public office was that of prosecuting attorney, which he held in 1874. He was assistant United States attorney in Michigan in 1887 and was circuit judge of Kent county, in that state, from 1880 to 1890.
 The four associate justices of the new court are all men of judicial ex- perienee. They are Judge William II. Hunt of Montana, who was governor of Porto Rico from 1901 to 1904; Judge Marion DeVries, who was a representa- tive in congress from California and a member of the board of customs ap. praisers in New York; Judge Orion M Barber a prominent lawyer of Bennng ton, Vt., and Judge James Francis Smith, of California, who recently re tired from the position of governor general of the Philippines.

NEW METHODS ARE NOW
 EMPLOYED BY THE CHURCH
They May Comprise Everything from. a
 Rifle Range to Moving Pictures

The work of the church is strikingly different today from what it was few years ago, declares Rheta Childe Dorr. All over the country the new work is being carried on.
 St. Georges in New York City car ries on it's work in large parish house, a deaeoness house, trade school for boys, a cottage colony at Rockaway Park, Long Island, and camp at Blaekhall, Connecticut. The parish house, which is open daily until II o'clock at night, has rifle range in the basement and an arsenal in the tower. It has kindergarten, work, room for unskilled women, cooking school, a library. and Sunday school room on the ground floor. On certain days in the week the people go there to buy groceries and other unecclesias- tical commodities at cost This depart ment meant the difference between sol i'd comfort and pinching want to many poor families during the hard year of 1908. The main Sunday school rooms and the tea room of the Girl s Friend, ly society occupy the second floor, and on the third floor is one of the finest men s clubs in New York, a self sup porting organization of five hundred men, mostly wage earners. The highest floor of all is the property of the boys club.
 At East Orange, N. J., church adver- tisements appear of services held on the lawn, where worshipers, sitting at ease in their carriages or automobiles, may be entertained by an out-of,door choir, and edified by short sermon from the church steps, Immanuel Baptist church, Chicago, offers breakfast as an induce ment to attend its morning services.
 Splendid community work is done by Bethany Presbyterian church, Phila delphia in it's evening college for men and women. Bethany established the first penny savings bank in the city of Philadelphia and was largely instru- mental in securing from the legislature the first savings bank law passed in the state of Pennsylvania. The Fourth Avenue Baptist church of Pittsburg has a Deaf department, Red Cross auxili- ary and a toy mission which distributes every year thousands of toys in insti- rutions. A visiting nurse is also em- ployed by this church. St. Luke s Episcopal church, of Orlando, Fla, sup ports hospital for the sick of all ranks and creeds. St. Timothy's s chapel of St. James church, one of the rich est Episcopal churches in Philadelphia, has settlement house and summer camp.

 This message, or one something like it, is likely to be roaming about the atmosphere by wireless any evening. At present, it is likely to be transmitted only by Dr. Walter Webb of Sharon Hill to his son, Joseph S. Webb, a freshman at Swarthmore college, says the Philadelphia Bulletin.

The Same Over Here.

The Forsyth Times-Journal says
the Collin Armstrong Advertising
Company, a New York agency, wants
to advertise Canadian lands in these
columns--but they can't buy in. 1hey
want the dope printed 'as reading
matter, and not marked advertising,
for which we have been paying The
ready print papers four cents an
inch" The TimesJournal isn't a
ready print paper, and thereby con-
trolls its advertising columns; and
then the Times journal isn't helping
settle up any of King Eds domain
vet awhile. In other words, We'd
rather advertise Montana free OF
charge than to take pay for booming
Canada.

Raw Tactics

In answer to the editorial ave

weeks Meagher County Republican
the News man has no reply,
because the article was nothing but d
vacuity, and of such rotten nature
that one was almost compelled to
wear patent clothes pin on his nose
while reading it. From the head line
down 20 the last period, it showed it's
writer in great luminosity and bold
relief, as one, whose power of reason
ing and understanding has dwindled
and shriveled down, SO that one could

with the people of that section OF the
county after Rip Van Wrinkle siesta,
by TRADE upon the furtility OF the
soil around Harlowton, and the pro-
gressiveness of the town itself.
A reply would be futile as the
brilliant writer has constipation OF
the brain, while his pen is effected
with the diarrhea. Distorted preJud-
ice Will not cast the bare facts into
oblivion.
Let the wealthy ranchers in the
vicinity of HarloWton answer the
false allegation. Let the prosperous
business houses, the crowded hotels,
the substantial buildings of all kinds,
the volume of business transacted,
and the ever increasing value OF lane
make reply. There stands Harlow
ton and like the Rock of GlDralter
there she will stand forever.

Help the &c nsus Man

The Montana Daily Record says
every town and county in Montana
wants to make the very best showing
as to population and wealth it can
this wear that is possible, and ii this
desire is sincere and is accompanied
with work they will do it. The cen
sus enumerators will do their duty,
but in every community they can be
assisted, and. the town which helps
the most will be the one that will be
the greatest gamer. That this is
recognized in every progressive COM
munity is shown by the efforts being
made by the commercial organizations
to assist.
The enumerators will start their
work April Is. In st. Paul the Com
mercial club is sending a letter to
every person in the town, asking the
recipient to assist the government
agents. Under the law the enumer-
ators are required to ask certain ques-
lions, and the law also provides they
must be answered.
No harm can come to any one as a
result of answering these questions
The facts told to the enumerators are
secret and only for the information
of the government. The enumeration
takes a solemn oath that he will not
disclose his information to any one
and he is liable to heavy penalty l.
he does so. The enumerator Will ash
for the age, sex, color, parentage
place of birth, occupation, number o
wears in the country and conjuga
condition of every person approached
Everybody can help in taking cen
sus, and truthful and full answers
promptly given will be factor.

They Haven't Got the Goods

In large heavy faced type Har-
lowton News announces its chal-
lenge to White Sulphur Springs for
a debate on subject of county seat
removal. By the way, who made
Harlowton dictator of Meagher
county affairs. The assumptions
ness of these people is simply kill
ing. Now, candidly friends, we
acknowledge this would be an UNI
equal struggle. People of White
Sulphur Springs are too actively
engaged in the pursuit of their
business to give much time to the
cultivation of wind jamming.
You are skilled in this, having
very little else to do than talk.
Why propose an unequal struggle.
Mr.. News man, your innocence
should not make you unjust. 1t
is enough that it makes you igno-
rant.
The above article appeared in the
Meagher County Republican of Apri
lst. That paper, through its igno
rance and jealousy prompted by the
fear of the danger which is overhang
ing w. S. S., would knock out the
Joints of double-jointed peanut
The News did not challenge the PEG
pie of White Sulphur Springs to
Joint debate: it was the HarloWtoI
Commercial Club. If our brothe
editor will look up the challenge il
the News of March 25th, he will SCI
that we are right, and that ignoranc
must have effected his eye sight.
The citizens of Harlowton hav
time to put the matter intelligentl
before the voters and taxpayers of tn
county and it will do so. But as on
old resident of the inland town says
The people of White Sulphu
Springs are too actively engaged il
pursuit of the game of stuff and ours

be known"

Baby Wasted to a Skeleton,

my little son, when about a year
and a half old. began to have sores
come out on his face. had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then n came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then l
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and a half of suffering he grew
SO bad that | had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.

BARRIERS Always laxative.
(IncOrpOrated

"The ta~lkativeness of BARRIERS long
has been the subject for puns and
Jokes" a barber said this morning.
81 had always fancied the matter one
of recent origin until the other day.
You know in my profession We have
a great deal of spare time. Well, the
other day l was sitting on the bench
waiting for shaves and hair Cts to
come in, and to while away the time
was glancing through a copy of Plu-
tarch's 'Archelaus.' Imagine my con-
sternation when 1 happened Oh a line
reading:
ga prating barber asked Archie
laus how he would be trimmed. He
answered.: I'm silence
well, that got ne. I e. knew
they even had BARRIERS hat long ago.
1 always supposed the ancients let
their whiskers grow and that they
wore curly locks as long as their
togas, but it seems that the barber is
an ancient relic, and that his talking
proclivities are a matter of history.
I'll have to give it to the humorists
there.
But say" he whispered, that
manicure girl over there has got US
beat to a fragile. 1 wonder if there's
anything in Plutarch about her?"-
