Paris Authorities :.
 Declare War On Rats

Paris, Sept. 29.-War to a finish has been declared against the rat by the Hygiene Commission of Paris from report read to it by Professo, Bordas, that there were 8,OOO,OOO rats in the city.
 The extermination of the rats is to be accomplished by all the weap- ons known in rat warfare, and the campaign will be both offensive and defensive. The offensive weapons are the following:
 Use of bacterial products or deadly microbes likely to cause epidemics among the rats, poisons, asphyxiat- ing gases in the sewers for several hours at time repeated at intervals and traps.
 In this connection Professor Bor- das warns rat trappers not to smoke before setting their traps as the rat holds tobacco in abhorrence. A pre- mium of two sous is to be paid for each rat killed by hunters.
 The defensive campaign will be conducted by rat proofing houses and by setting the garbage cans on the sidewalks only few minutes prev ious to the arrival of the garbage automobiles, so that rats cannot feed on their contenst over night.
 Many pessimistic voices were heard in the Hygiene Commission as to the chances of success in ridding Paris of the rat nuisance, especially after Professor Bordas had explained that the Paris rat could boast of family tree dating back to the early cent uries of the Christian era, having emigrated to France from the Near East with the early Crusaders.
 "Such aristocrats are bound to put up a stiff fight for their privileges" " said a humorous member of the com mission.

 So they peeerd through the hole. Mr Gardner. who held all title to the pin in fee simple, also peered. True it Is that Gardner has about $500 worth Of diamonds Chow easily d typewriter spells $500G0 just like 1t was not all the money in the world), but this one was d genuine prize. Gardner's friend to whom he had been showing his store or gems, hastily rubbed his eyes to get the glitter of $50,000 worth of jewels out of them, and also peered.
 But the sticlpin was obdurate Even the diamond seemed to enter into d conspiracy with rs setting to evade capture. and sullenly refused to glitter a single gilt. But Gardner had an idea or two to try yet. He called for q carpenter. Quickly the hole was wid- a trifle that way. Gardner stretched his arm through the hole. Perhaps if he could not see the diamond he could feel it.
 But that idea had failed Gardner couldn't feel the pin.

New Witness
In Auto Case

Continued from page one)
boy, was another new witness in the
Beck Haywood automobile case and
according to his testimony in the
third day of the trial Of the case at
st Johnsbury was the first one to
reach the scene of the accident.
Mr.. Potts testified that he was
walking toward st. Johnsbuly that
afternoon and the Haywood car went
| by him at the rate Of 80 miles an
hour. Almost at the same time he
saw the Silsby car approaching. Next
he saw the Silsby car hit the fence
and go over the bank. He watched the
Haywood car few moments after it
passed him and noticed that it turned
out for mud puddle on to the other
side of the road. As the Haywood
car approached he did not remember
hearing any signals. AS soon as the
Silsby car went over the cmbankment
he hurried to the place. He said Phil
ip Beck was first placed in the Davis
team and later in an automobile.
John Lee, the other boy who was
riding on the front seat with Clayton
Silsby when the accident happened,
gave his version of the affair.
The plaintiffs introduced James
Johnson, the Fairbanks employee who
passed the Haywood car as it was
coming down the Fish Hatchery Hill.
His evidence was excluded in the pre-
vious trial and the Court was re-
quested by counsel for the defense to
exclude it at this trial. Lawyer
Seallcs said it would be introduced to
show the reckless driving of the chat
feur of the Haywood car. The Court
said if it could be shown by any evil
dence that there was connection be-
tween the speed of the car when Mr..
Johnson passed it on the Fish hatch
cry hill and the speed when it passed
the Silsby car he would consider al
lowing its admission. Mr. Johnson
was then excused from testifying
further.
MI. Livingston, the foreman of the
Silsby garage, visited the scene o.
the accident soon after it happened
and testified particularly about the
working of the brakes of the Silsby
car at the time of the accident. He
said the brakes of the car were in
good condition and described their
construction. He said the track of
the Silsby car indicated that it was
not being driven at any speed-7that it
must have been driven slow. Excep-
tons were taken to much of Mr..
Livingstons testimony, which were
allowed by the Court.
