AGED JURlsT DIES PHOENlX-Judge Alexander Buck

scraps from their hands and the little creatures move around the men with cut fear of molestation
 The strike came and for many weeks and in some instances months. the rats were deprived of their food supply. All the woeful scenes of a desperate famine set in and the rats died by hundreds. the bodies of these which died first providing food for those which lived longer. For the rat is a cannibal. Miners have noted that when a rat is killed underground he is hastily devoured by the others.
 The rats in the mines of the copper country are as endless in variety of cclor and size as those which followed the Pied Piper of Hamlin. Some are black an brown. brown and white. pure white. some black. Others are brown, brown and white black and white and spotted. They are tame and miners when going to work in new part of the mine usually catch few with their hands, just pick them up and take them there
 The employees of the mines regret the death of the rats They never appreciate the value cf the scaven- gers as much as they do now for the stench of the refuse matter is constant reminder of their loss. Of course in most fthe mines there gre sctill many rats and os they increase in number they are being distributed to the other parts of the workings.
 Some of tlie miners had fcrethoueht enous' tn ramanler the ratc during tho cessation of mining opatl ''sI and food was taken down for them every day. It will be a lons '''ne before Nthe rat kingdom will recoverI from the depredations of the strike. and it stands without question that the survivors have little respect for these who caused 1t.

STRIKE BROUGHT FAMINE AND DEATH ID MINE RATS
Scavengers of the Mines Died by the Hundreds from Be- ing Deprived of Food

The long strike in the copper coun. try is about dissolved. Normal con ditions are rapidly being restored, says the Mining Gazette of Houghton, Michigan The scourge mas passed ever and it's paralyzing effects have been felt in almost every branch of commercial and social activity.
 But the suffering occasioned by the strike has not been confined to hu. mans alone. In the realm of dumb ami mals there has been dire suffering. Scenes of distress such as would soften the hearts of all men who work for their living in the bowels of the earth, famine and death have taken place underground while men battled against each other on the surface.
 The rat is the scavenger of the copper mines Thousands of the little creatures moved by the mortal im- pulse to satisfy the bangs Of hunger, kept the levels of the stopes sweet and clean of all refuse. The employees of the mine and the rats are mutual friends for each recognizes the fact that the other is essential to his en- tire comfort. At crib time the min CTS often feed tke scavengers the been caused to buildings by the drainage of the soil in which the foundations are buried.

Countess Molitor. or Russia, has drawn her plans for the crossing Of Arabia from west to east, including the exploration of the Ruba of Khali Desert. a regicn of 600,00O square miles which no European has ever en- tered, and which is probably the most mysterious ana inaccessible region in the world. Whether it contains as some believe, remains of buried cities or whether the whole is nothing but arid sand, none can say. for it is very doubtful whether even a native has crossed more than the outskirts of the desert Countess Molitor has al. ready done considerable travelling alone in Southwest Africa

A board of architects which has Ieen considering the preservation of St. Paurs Cathedral is discussing a remarkable scheme The idea is the immersion of the foundations in a huge tank of moist earth.
 Expert builders have found that the sand and gravel in which the cathe- dral foundations stand have become parched and unstable, and, owing tc the plateau fornvuon on the summit of which the foundations rest there is tendency for the foundations to spread. Until recently the gravel on which st. Pauls is poised has heen bound together by the natural moist ure Altering through from the surface, cc ntributing to the stability of the ediftce The paving in the enclos- ures, the substitution of concrete for kidney pebble road and the surface drainage system have deprived the subsoil of this necessary moisture, Other cases are cited in the Lonion district. where similar injury has

 Anniversary
(By Louis Le Brun.1

New York, Jan. 17.-Chica go's cam palgn for "Go to Church Sunday. to be observed two weeks from tomor- row, has not aroused any wild en- thus1asn in New York. It has been alleged. and it is probably true. that n III proportlon ~ to pol'uiation New York has fewer regular church attendants than any other large American city This is in spite Of the fact too, that the American metropolis has a much Sfr1cter Sunday observance law than most western municipalities The prevalence of people of foreign birth has nothing to do with the general New York disinclination for worship. for it is the nsw1y-arrtved immi grants who largely i'll the Catholic. churches and Jewish syna gogues of the poorer quarters Of the city. Priests and rab- DIS agree that the most pIouS green horns. as their more sophisticated countrymen call them, are the most pious Of New Workers. but that a few years in this city usually renders them indifferent to religion. Religious re vfva1s such as so frequently arouse smaller cities, have no effect on New York. Of active agnostics New York has no more, proportionately. than any other city. It is indifference, rather than unbe1fef, that foredooms to failure any "Go to Church Sunday movement.
 
 The loan shark in this and other cities is soon to have his teeth sex- tracted, if the project of a syndicate of wealthy New Workers is put into effect. Vincent Astor, Andrew Car negie and pr. B. R. L. Gould. former city chamberlain, are among those in terested in a, plan to establish a series of small loan banks here and in other places all over America. These insti- tutsons will loan sums of ten or more dollars to honest men who at present, must go to loan sharks and pay usuri- . ous interest
 Cardinal Farley has inaugurated a crusade against the modern dances, especially the tango, which has al ready had the effect Of diminishing the participation of Catholics in those forms of terpsichorean expression. While the cardinal has not officially placed a ban on the tango, the one step glide and the maxine, he has let it be known that he dep1ores such dances as being immodest. .fThe church does not desire to assume the role of dictator in the amusements of her children" said Dr. Carroll the cardinals secretary, .tbut the modern vogue in dancing and the prevailing styles in wo1nanis dress are both in-
