WOMEN GOOD RAT cATcHERs
Seems Odd Occupation, but They Are
Said TO Become Experts In
Short Order.

oldest of all the many hooks and
corners of London is rat catchers'
colony near Borough road. The
colony guarantees to clear any home,
warehouse or ship Of rats within 4S
hours. They employ nets, traps, fer
rets. Their operations for a single
month involve the capture of $4,000
rats.
They do not kill the rodents, for
they have too high value in medi-
cal laboratories and hospitals for
dissection work and experiment.
They are sold to these institutions
at s cents head. During the war
women were employed to catch the
rodents In spite of their repug-
nance to rats, they soon showed
surprising aptitude for the business.
Today scores of women are en-
gagged in this queer pursuit. One of
them recently advertised $1,000 wild
rats for sale at reduced prices" The
entire lot of rodents was bought by
a medical laboratory.

LIVES IN HUT IN CITY

In the heart of London is living a
man who has never lived in street.
He is a young Scottish shepherd,
in charge of the sheep which he has
brought to Kensington Gardens
from Aberdeen. With another shep-
herd he lives in little hut in the
middle of Kensington Gardens, and
despite the crowded life about him
he leads much the same life as he
does in the Highlands.

or MUCH HISTORIC INTEREST
House to Which Duke OF York Took
tils Bride Long Associated
q With Royalty.

Many and varied are the associa-
tons which cling around White
lodge, the new home of the duke of
York and his bride, standing high,
as it does, between Sheen Gate and
Robin Hood, and commanding a fine
view forward across the Queens ride
TO Richmond and backward to Bev-
erley brook and Wimbledon COM
mon. 1t was formerly called Stone
lodge, and was used by King George
III as a hunting box. Later, King
George III put the house in order
for his minister, Arlington, the
first V.scount Sidmouth, and here it
was that Addington had his last in
teryiew with Pitt, and entertained
Sheridan, Walter Scott and Nelson.
Moreover, the table is still preserved
on which the last-named is said to
have drawn with his finger dipped
in wine his plan for the battle of
Trafalgar. King Edward VII, when
prince of Wales, lived here for
time before his marriage, and it was
later turned over as a residence to
Queen Mary's parents, the duke and
duchess of Teck. Christian Science

BOOK THAT OFFENDED POPE
Did Mot oe Far Enough In Defending
the Psntiff's Claim Of Tenn
poral Power.

Cardinal Bellarmino, Italian car
dinal and controyersialist, whose
body was removed recently from the
Church of the Gesu in Rome, where
it had been buried for more than 800
years, for refinement in the church
of st. Ignatius, had the double merit
with the court of Rome of support
ing her temporal power and spir-
itual supremacy to the utmost, and
of strenuously opposing the reform
ers, and for number of years no
eminent divine among the REFORM
ers failed to make Bellarmino's ar
guments a particular subject OF
REPUTATION. His maxims on the right
of pontifs to depose princes caused
his attitude on the temporal power
of the popes to be condemned at
Paris. On the other hand it did not
satisfy the court Of Rome, because it
asserted, not a direct, but an indi-
rect, power Of the popes in temporal
matters. This reservation so offend
ed Sixtus V that he placed Bellar-
mino's work, "a Body of Contro-
yersy," among the list Of prohibited
books.
Bellarmino was made cardinal
because of his learning. At the cleo
tions of Leo XII and Paul v he was
thought Of for the pontifcate, and
might have been chosen had he not !
been Jesuit. He was a nephew of
Pope Marcellus Ii.

sTILL PAVING rRisuTk

Feudal days are recalled by a lit.
tie ceremony which recently oc-
CURED at Perpignau, where a dele.
cation of mountaineers solemnly
brought in the sum of $50 francs as
their annual feudal tribute to the
head of the French government. The
latter shares with the Spanish
bishop of Urgel sort of suzerainty
over the republic of Andorra in the
Pyrenees, where mountaineers have
lived since 1878 in an independent
state comprising less than 200
square miles, between the French
and Spanish borders.
The bishop gets $40 pesetas an
nually, which at the present rate of
exchange exceeds the French rulers
share, originally intended to be twice
as much as the bishops.

SHY AND SENSITIVE

AT the sentimental age Of four
teen, I amagined myself much in
love. The object Of my affections
was none other than the devoted
sutton of my older sister. Being an
extremely shy and sensitive child, I
poured out my troubles to no one
but my trusted diary for fear of
having my feelings made the joke of
the family. Imagine my horror
when my sister, who was anything
but shy and sensitive, began quoting
from this precious book in the pres
snce of not only my fun-loving fam
lily, but the adored one himself

SEEMS RATHER HARSH

A revolutionary provision is con-
tanned in the new law proposed in
England concerning the descent of
property where a person dies with
out leaving will. This is that no
person more distantly related than a
second cousin can inherit property,
real or personal, in such circum-
stances, and that if there is not any
body nearer of kin the property shall
revert to the crown.

governor TALKS ON
RUSSELL'S ACTION
Says He Is Opposed to Rushing
Laws

Hartford. Jan. 25.-Governor Tenn
pleton said today regarding the reslg.
nation Of Fuel Administrator Russell:
There are lot of people in this
state who do not see this thing in the
same light as Mr.. Russell does; for
instance. In my town of Waterbury.
the coal dealers are highly incensed
and l know they are In some of the
other sections. This may appear like
great emergency to Mr.. Russell and
it may not appear as great one to
others. / am opposed to rushing
things through the legislature in a
hurry and l have found that little
elaboration good thing"
Both Governor Templeton and Mr..
McCook, his secretary. said that Mr..
Russell was perfectly familiar with
every phase of the bill as it went to
the senate and that all its provisions
were made with his consent. Attor-
ney Gen. Healy said today he had
helped prepare ! the original draft of
the bill but that he had never seen
the measure as It was presented to the
senate until he read it in the journal
of the house. The attorney general
said he did not care to accept any
responsibility for the measure con-
tanning drastic provisions that are
carried by the fuel, bill and that he
did not think it would be consiaxitu-
tional if passed
When asked whether he had actual
~ written the bill as 1t was presented
TO the senate Mr.. Cook said that he
had had his ideas incorporated in the
form of bill at his own office.
Mr.. Russell stated today that it was
this document that he presented to
the senate republican leader, Senator
Ellis who Mr.. Russell thinks could

the governors office.
Mr.. Russell is inclined to place re-
sponsibility for the delay on Senator
Ellis which OF Mr.. Russell thinks could
have fastened the bill to hearing

slation on the statute books without
