COMBATS THEORIES
Of COLONEL TEDDY
London Physician Says There Are
Babies Enough in the Most
of Good Families.

LONDON, September 26.-It would
be interesting to hear a commentary
by Col. Theodore Roosevelt upon the
tenets which are being preached by DIR.
Alexander Rigby, VI. D., who has been
delivering addresses throughout the
provinces urging married men and
women to limit their families to the
fewest number of children.
''None is better than a few, but the
fewer the better, - is the terse manner
in which Doctor Rigby drives home his
argument
Before the Preston Town Council
the physician criticized Colonel Roose-
Welt very harshly for urging big fami-
lies.
His speech was made to the council
upon the presentation of report stat
ing that the town S birth rate was the
lowest on record. Thousands of super
fuous children who were absolutely
useless, were brought into the world,
said Doctor Rugby, and they were a
source of nuisance and trouble to many
people. The increase of population was
maintaining itself and even improving,
and it was useless for the town coun-
ellis to endeavor to prevent a diminu-
ton in the birth rate Formerly epl-
denies of cholera and smallpox and
wars swept off the superfuous popula-
ton, and now there was not the same
necessity of increasing the number of
births
If the birth rate stood at thirty
eight, as in 1871, people would be pow
ertv stricken, and the towns would be
unable to cope with the population.
Regulating the size of families was a
common-sense, economic principle, and
the council sught to congratulate itself
that people were getting more common
sense.

Real Sufra get'te.

Mrs Garrud, the jiu jitsu expert of
the sufragettes, who is teaching the
difficult art of japanese wrestling to
the women athletes of the Women 5
Freedom League, issued a general chal-
lenge to London policemen to try issues
with her at the game of wrestling. y
number of policemen responded AS
Mrs. Garrud stands only a few inches
over four feet and as some of her OPP
ponents stood over six feet and weigh
ed over 200 pounds, it was feared that
she might be hurt, but she only smiled
at the fears of her friends.
One policeman said: "Why you re
only a little dot of a woman.
''Well. m not exactly a giant ad-
mitted the suffragette eff You re
sure you aren't frightened Of getting
hurt, l think I'll throw you.
Again the big policeman smiled. 1t
was all so very, very foolish. His
great red hands played idly about his
42n. chest. and then in a moment of
vanity he clenched his right fist, so
that the muscles of his forearm stood

Then the struggle commenced. As

the woman. First he tried for a catch

met, and the giant tried to pull her to
