CAN KILL RATS BEST
BY STARVING THEM

A writer in McClure's magazine
describes what was done in San
Francisco to rid the city of bubonlc
plague. OF course, il was question
Of exterminatiug the rat. lie says;
"Trapping alone. or even poison, are
rather to the advantage of the rats.
Every living. thing, save only civilized !,
men, multiplies UP to the limit or It's
food supply. To destroy, from time
to time, three. quarters of the rats IN n
city only kills off the surplus popula'
tion and makes life easy and food abun-
dnnt for the rest No matter how many
are caught, there will always be plenty
more The remnant, experienced and
trap-shy, will get their living from
granarY, pantrv and chicken-yard, will
shun bats and survive. The only way
to dispose of the last few individuals
is to cut off absolutely their food sup
ply, and make them choose between
poison or trap.
"On this basis San Francisco carried
on its campaign, Fifty thousand new
metal garbage cans with tight metal
co1ers wiped out as many feeding
places Eighty-seven INSPECTORS saw to
it that all poultry yards, bakeries, res
taurants, wharves, stables, slaughter
houses, grain bins. and the like, were
made rat.proof with wire netting and
cement, and induced the San Francis
cans to forego the convenient practice
of throwing their edible refuse in the
nearest vacant lot In general, all un-
sanitary structures inhabited by either
men or animals were condemned, all
sewers repaired and made tight, and
all cellar floors relaid with cement, 10

ONE MAN IN EVERY FOUR
IN NEW YORK A JEW

The last great element in present day
immigration is. properly speaking, not
European at all, but Oriental. says Bur
ton ] Hendrix in McClure's Magazine
for May. The migration OF hundreds OF
the United States Is one OF the stupen-
dous facts OF modern times. II Is un-
questlonably te most far-reaching
event In the annals OF Israel since the
fall OF Jerusalem; Purely from the
standpoint of numbers. history records
nothing like II. In the two thousand
years that this people has been home
less forcing Its presence upon the un-
welcoming nations OF Europe, II has been
subjected TO many eNpulsions. many
forced migrations: but never have its
comings and goings resemblcd the pres
ent masslike movement TO the United
States. The expulsion Of the Jews from
England. in the reign OF Edward l.. is
a sorry chapter in their history: yet this
edict eNiled only about Is. 900 people, less
than one-tenth the number tFat landed
In New York last year. The expulsion
OF the Jews from Spain by Ferdinand
and Isabella has been traglcalIy described
by many historians. but IL affected only
$50 900 souls. less than one-quarter OF
the present Jewish population OF New
York. Jerusalem. in i;s greatest days.
contained less than one sixth the num-
ber OF Jews now found In the American
metropolis. indeed about one-tenth OF
all the Jews in the world, or 500, 900, live
upon Manhattan island and the adjoln-
Ing territory. In the greater city one
man In every four Is a lew.

This statement came from Mrs Percy

an injunction suit instituted by Nr.
Proctor to prevent the transfer of $40 600

In consideration for an ante nuptial con-
tract in Berlin last October.
The court held that title to the stock

JUDGE CONTINUES
POOLROOM HEARING
Still Another Delay in the Case
of the Turf Exchange
ManipulatOrs.

Hearing OF the application OF w. c.
Applegate &. Co.. proprietors of the Bank
turf exchange at IS West Second South
street. for an injunction restraining the
chief OF police from closing up the ex-
change was continued in District Judge
Morse's court Monday afternoon until
Tuesday morning. after most OF the au-
thorities ancient, medieval and mod
ern. had been cited In the effort TO show
that the poolroom Is not a gambling
house.
as associate counsel with Harry j. Rob
inson for the poolroom interests and Judge
Powers argued that although the statutes
prohibit gambling they do not say any
horse races. Then he went To common
law TO show that horse racing and bet
ting were not prohibited and declared
that in some instances the courts mad
been called upon to enforce bets on
horse races.
"The city has no right TO go beyond
the statute" Judge Powers insisted.
City Attorney Dininny's argument is 10
the effect that although bets between
persons on horse races may not be gam
bling at common law, the conducting of
an establishment like the Bank turf eN-
change. In which betting Is on whole
sale plan, really is a business and is in
violation OF the laws.
Judge Morse expressed doubt as to the
length court OF equity might go into
the gambling phase. but said that he viii
express no opinion on this until such
time the case may come before him In
criminal form. The poolroom nroprietors
admit the citv's charges. but contend that
they are within the statutes OF Titan In
their actions.
The case probably will be submitted TO
the court this afternoon. but an immedl-
ate decision is not looked for.

Czar Meets 4 True Partisan.

ION one OF his visits to Paris Nicholas
II was left alone for a moment in his
carriage" says NJ. Paoli in the May Nc
Clure's. The czar was delighted at the
feeling OF freedom and ease. Looking out
of the window with all the zest OF a
schoolboy playing truant. he saw before
him one of those picturesque street
Arabs who seem to sprout between the
paving stones OF Paris. This particular
specimen. seated against the ratings,
with his nose in the air. was whistling
the refrain OF the Russian national
hymn. Suddenly their eyes met. The
street-boy sprang to his feet-he had
never seen the emperor. but he had seen
his photograph. and the likeness was
striking.
Suppose it is Nicholas7' he said to
himself greatly puzzled.
He resolved to make sure without
delay. Walking up to within a yard OF
the carriage. and bobbing his head, he
shouted In a noarse voice to the un-
known foreigner:
"Hows the empress"
Picture his stupefaction-for. in fact,
he thought that II was only good joke
when the stranger replied, with a smile:
:" THANK you, the empress is very well,
and delighted with her journey
THE boy lost his tongue. He stared
at the speaker In dismay. and then,
raising his cap. stalked away slowly,
very slowly. to mark his dignity.
Nicholas II afterward often amused
himself by scandalizing the formal set
around him with the story OF this private
Interview with true Partisan"
