The health department estimates there are more than GOO, 000 rats In Chicago and that the num ber Is Increasing day by day, despite the efforts of professional rat catch ers and the use of mechanical devices for their destruction. War 'of extermination against mem bers of the surmulot tribe is carried on in all parts of the city, but in no place Is the slaughter greater than at the stock yards. There the battle Is waged continually. Every morning for breakfast men who have studied the subject say the little brown rat In this city consumes a quantity of food equal to the meat of 52 cows. Since they eat three meals a day in each twenty-four hours, they consume three times that quantity, or equal to 15C head of cattle. This Weeping Widow Quickly Weds Console., SWAINSBORO, Ga Standing beside the open grave into which the body of her husband was about to be lowered, Mrs. J. J. Jewell was hyster ical with grief, and friends had to re strain her from throwing herself into the grave upon the casket of the man with whom she had lived happily for 15 years and who was the father of her six children. Women tried in vala to comfort her and the scene was aa unusually pain ful one until Robert S. McDaniel, a young man who recently came here from Joplin, Mo., and who had become very friendly with Jewell, stepped close to the widow and whispered a few words through her heavy veil of black. Whatever McDaniel said seemed to give the widow courage to bear up during the soul-trying "ashes to-ashes, dust-to-dust" period of the ceremony, and she waited through those painful moments with surprising fortitude, considering her pitiful condition be fore the whispered consolation given to her by McDaniel. Turning from the grave when it was all over, she leaned on the arm of Mc Daniel as she walked to the gate, where she and her children were helped into a carriage by kind-hearted neighbors and were driven to the fa therless home, a little farm for which Horse -Poisoning Is NEW YORK. The police here be lieve, that they have finally suc ceeded in breaking up one of the strangest as well as one of the mean est forms of graft which the members of the underworld, always fertile in such schemes, have ever developed. This form of graft in no way resem bles the good old bunko games of the professional sharper, but has brought about instead the new calling of the professional horse-poisoner. The methods of earning a livelihood In this manner, as revealed by the capture of a gang of poisoners, are simple. As practiced here, the game has been worked by men acting in couples, one to handle the finances, the other to do the poisoning. The for mer, to begin operations, selects' a cer Texas Papa May FORT WORTH, Tex. Elopements of lovers under the legal age, twenty one for the young man and eighteen for the girl, will be effectually checked in Texas by the new law adopted by the late legislature and now effective. Under this law no person under the legal age can obtain a marriage li cense without the written consent of the minor's parents, and the paper must be acknowledged before a notary public like a deed. If a minor has no parents, a county Judge'B consent to the union is necessary. If the clerk doubts that either the prospective bride or bridegroom has attained the legal age, he Is authorized to require the affidavit of some other than the contracting parties.

I ft .EL i.Ss: LA. 0 Rout Army of Rats estimate is based on an allowance of one ounce of food for each rodent each meal. Dogs, ferrets and cats are used In the war of extermination, and although thousands of rats are slaughtered daily their number continues to in crease. This can easily be understood when it is known that from one pair of rats to a nest one thousand young surmulots will breed In a year. "Hack of the yards" crowds of boys gather nightly to go on hunting expedi tions for rodents. Garbage cans are overturned, and as the rats scamper away dogs accompanying the boys catch and kill them. The boys carry sticks or clubs in (heir hands and kill the rats when they attempt to escape. Many becftme so expert at rat catching that In after years they embark in it as a profes sion. Some of the stores in the loop dis trict have a pack of trained fox ter riers to keep the rats away, but the animal which has earned the name of "nature's police woman" is the plain alley cat that stalks the street at night. Rats cause heavy losses to business houses. They burrow through bolts of cloth to build their nests, destroying many thousands of dollars' worth of goods. IV DIDN'T WANT TO Lose AMY TIME Mrs. Jewell and her husband had worked hard to pay. Jewell died on Tuesday and the funeral was held on Wednesday. The next day the widow drove into Swains boro, accompanied by McDaniel, and went to the courthouse. "The Widow Jewell ain't losing any time in settling up the estate," re marked those who saw her enter the courthouse, and her prompt attention to business caused comment among those who had feared the day before that she would collopse at her hus band's funeral. It wasn't the probate judge that Mrs. Jewell was looking for, however, but the marriage license office. Guid ed by McDaniel, she walked into the office and gave her age as thirty-one while he gave his as twenty-six. Lifting her black veil so that she could see to write her name, the widow signed the affidavit and In a few minutes they were married and on their way back to the Jewell farm. the Newest Graft tain section of the city, preferably one In which one or more big stables are located. His assistant is then sent out to poison two or three horses a day for a week. This Is accomplished by giving them, as the opportunity may occur, a lump of sugar, half an apple or some other equine delicacy, loaded with poison. There is no monetary gain in this, the preliminary stage, which is mere ly done to create a favorable state of affairs that is, from the viewpoint of the grafter. As soon as the poison ings begin to be talked of the finan cial man gets busy. He goes to the owner of a large stable, mentions the numerous deaths from poison, and of fers protection for a sum varying from 25 to $100 a week. If the owner refuses to pay, coercion is brought to bear in the shape of a few deaths among his animals. The fact that the two grafters were never seen together made the game a diffi cult one to stop, but the final rounding up of the gang of poisoners should end this peculiar graft, since the penalty under the law is a heavy one. Prevent Elopements HAVE yolTiIPs, YOUR. YLL FATHER'S WRITTEN CONSENT the parties, in case of doubt, but this law was frequently and successfully evaded. A common method of evasion was for the young man, if under age, to put a slip of paper, bearing the num ber 21, In his shoe, and for the girl to put in her shoe n slip of paper with the number 18, and then the man would cheerfully make affidavit that he was "over twenty-one," and with equal sincerity the Rlrl would make affidavit that fhe was "over eighteen." In a few Instances Indictments have been returned ugninst bridegrooms for false swearing, but uniformly the fathers In-law after a few weeks have decided to make the best of it, and have refused to testify against their unwelcome sons-in-law. I . fl'Hv Dv mm j L I C E ft Sle fr-VJ Governor Ties Russell's Hand. Gov. Osborn took action at a meet Ing with the board of control of Mar quette state prison to block Warden Jim Russell from ever beating up any more prisoners on his own responsi bility. Tho governor suggested to the board that it pass a resolution tak ing away from the warden the right to administer any kind of corporal punishment through his own and sole responsibility, the resolution to pro vide that if any corporal punishment is administered it must be approved by the board before it is administered in each and every particular case. The board passed the resolution. This prevents the warden from flog ging any prisoners simply for per sonal spite, or in bad temper. In the future if the warden wishes to have a prisoner whipped, he will have to have a meeting of the board of control and have the board by ma jority vote authorize him to go ahead with that particular case of punishment.

Girls who have been to recent after noon porch parties tell me of these contests which were used while the hostess was putting the last finishing touches to her refreshments. For the first one cards were passed having bumble bees in water color on the first page, and the second -page re vealed the following questions, all to be answered by words ending in "sting:" 1. a sting that cures fatigue; 2. a sting that cures hunger; 3, a sting that tidies your room: 4, a sting that makes you iaugh; 5, a sting that cooks your meat: 6, a sting unwise people indulge In; 7. a sting that browns your bread; 8. a sting that spoils your tools; 9. a sting that makes you read a book through; 10, a sting that tries; 11. a sting that adapts; 12, a sting that shop-keepers dislike; 13, a sting we observe In Lent: 14, a sting tea experts do; 15, a winter sport.

Ask the guests to come in regular conventional evening attire with the exception of their heads; both men and women must change the style of hair dressing. Either a pic turesque or grotesque mode may be chosen. For Instance, Imagine a man in perfectly correct evening dress with his head representing an Indian chief in full war bonnet, or a matron For Garden Party 1 1 Mi T 'HE gown on the seated figure is of pink llnon.

This seemed such a capital idea for making money that I give the outline, hoping some "Ladles' Aid" or guild will be benefitted thereby. The scheme was carried out In a suburb and the sales lasted every Saturday during the month of August. Booths were erected upon the lawn and the committees were formed by taking the names alphabetically. Sal ads, cold meats, rolls, bread, cakes, cookies, Jams and Jellies, mayon naise, candies and cheese crackers were always made and orders taken for anything In the home cooking line. Young housekeepers found the sales a great help and strangers at nearby boarding houses and hotels patronized them for a cup of tea and a sandwich or a dish of home-made sherbet. There were young girls to serve and the ar rangements were so perfected that the burden was not heavy upon any one. A goodly sum was added to the treasury, all made by a little extra effort during the summer. Place Cards for Engagement An nouncement. A young woman used these very clever cards at the luncheon her moth er gave to make known her engage ment to a few favored friends. A web of delicate silver cord (like we use for holiday parcels) was sewed upon a pink heart-shaped card, a wee silver heart being seemingly caught in its meshes. The monogram of the happy pair was done in silver underneath the web. After the dessert was served, stiff white cards seven Inches square were passed with pink pencils and each guest asked to plan an ideal house for the couple; these the bride kept for "future reference." A silver loving cup wa3 passed filled with claret lemonade and each girl drank a toast to the new home and Its charming mistress.

Two Car Meet Head-On Two Are Dead and 60 Injured. As the result of the forgetfulness of Motorman Frank Woodln, of the Northville branch of the D. U. R., ac cording to the statement made by the officials of the company, a crash occurred between two interurban cars at the junction in Drarborn at 4:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, as the re sult of which two men were killed and CO persons were injured, several of them so severely that they may die. The collision occurred between the Northville local car and the Ann Ar bor local. The Northville car had or ders to pass the west-bound limited traveling in two sections. Woodln held his car in the switch until the two sections of the limited passed, and, so it is declared, answered tho signals Indicating that he knew the local was right behind, but he pulled out onto the main line just in time to meet the rapidly approaching local head-on. The cars telescoped and piled up in a jumbled mass. Why the death list was not greater is hard to figure out. Louis Hamilton, motor man of the local, shut off power and then jumped, but he broke his back in striking the cement road and died within a short time. Motorman Blames Conductor. "My conductor, F. Dresselhouse, was standing on the front of the car. He said, 'Go ahead;' I turned on the power and ran out of the switch, an Instant later, it seemed, a car loomed up ahead of us. I only had time to throw off the power, put on the emer gency brake and then I jumped. The cars crashed together as I hit the ground," says Motorman Woodln. NEWS IN BRIEF.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT "When my first baby was six months' old he broke out on his head with little bumps. They would dry up and leave a scale. Then it would break out again and it spread all. over his head. All the hair came out and his head was scaly all over. Then his face broke out all over in red bumps and it kept spreading until It was on his hands and arms. I bought several, boxes of ointment, gave him blood medicine, and had two doctors to treat him, but he got worse all the time. He had it about six months when a friend told me about Cuticura. I sent and got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a cake of Cutlcujra Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment. In three days after using them he began to im prove. He began to take long naps and to stop scratching his head. After taking two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes of Ointment and tSfee cakes of Soap he was sound and well, and never had any breaking out of any kind. His hair came out in little curls all over his head. I don't think anything else would have cured him exceot Cuti cura.
