ASSUMING COGNOMEN FA
MOUS IN HISTORY.
(By Associated Press Cable.)
Paris, Jan. 10.-The French courts
decided in a recent case that an actress
may be restrained from the use of an
assumed name by its real owner. She
may not escape an injunction even
by changing the spelling of the name,
as long as the pronunciation is not
altered by the change of spelling.
Mile. Gina Recamioer, noted as the
actress with the most beautiful feet
in Paris, was sued by the descendants
of the famous Mine. Recamier, General
Recamier and Dr. Recanier. They
successfully obtained an injunction
against Gina's use of the name "Re
camler," or even "Recanmie," on the
ground that the leaving off the final
"*r" did not in French alter the pro
nunciation of the name.
Mile. Recamier, whose real name is
Ageorges, explained in court that the
name had been suggested to her by
Andre de Fouquires, who, while judg
ing in a beautiful-feet competition,
said, when he eaw Gina reclining on
a couch, "She looks just like Minme.
Recamler."
SENILE BLACK GIANIS
FOUND BY MISSIONARY
(By Associated Press Cable.)
London, .lan. 10.-Rev. C. Lee-Wil
son, who conducts a mission in the
district of the White Nile, a thou
sand miles south of Khartounm, has
arrived in England with interesting
facts' about a race of negro giants,
who inhabit the Bahr-el-Ghazal, 200
miles west of the river. These na
tives practice neither cannabalism
nor humnan sacrifices and hav\'e some
admirable traits. UnUke their neigh
bors, they are never cruel to women
or children, and their habits of dec
orating themselves are solmewhat
akin to the people of civilization.
For reasons unknown even to
themselves, the adults all have six
of their lower teeth removed. Of
those remaining, however, they take
the most scrupulous care, cleaning
them daily with a native brush and
wood ash. They take much pride in
dressing their hair, powder their
faces and wear ostrich feathers. They
believe in a supreme being, to whom
they make sacrifices through their
chiefs or witch doctors.
MNSEEK THILLS

(By Associated Press Cable.)
Berlin, Jan. 10.-German alpinists,
who swarm in Switzerland and the
Tyrol every summer, and scorn the
services of professional guides even
fQr such summits as the Matterhorn,
Moat Blanc and the Jungfrau, are
now seeking adventure farther afield.
The Hanover section, of the German
Alpine club has appropriated $2,000
to build a hut on Mount Kilimanjaro,
the highest peak of the African con
linent. Kilimanjaro is located on the
northeastern boundary of German
East Africa, and overtops Mont
Blanc by some 4,000 feet. The moun
tain consists of two peaks, the high

710 feet. Although in the equatorial
region, it has a mantle of perpetual
snow--and gives rise to a number, of

U -R- Dt"OCUMENTS
ARE CHINESE LAWS
(By AsSociated Press Cable.)
Peking, Jan."*10.-Since the Chinese
parliamenttceased to exist the presi
dential mandates are the only laws
which are being promulgated. Accord
ing to western ideas they are often
curious documents. The picturesque
oriental phraseology of former Impe
rial edicts is largely retained, but they
are generall. more accurate in state
ment of facts, and they bear evidence
that the man behind them is a strpnger
character than the ex-prince regent,
who, two years ago, gave up his son's
throne with very little fighting.
The effect of Yuan Shith Kai's man
dates extends only so far as his power
reaches, and that is not yet sufficient
to re-establish the system of annual
payments from the provinces to the
central government, such as existed
under the Manchu regime. Many of
the mandates, like the former edicts,
are still-born. Nevertheless, the pres
Ident's expressions of opinion, and his
orders appear daily, his object evi
dently being to lee the country know
the difficulties of his position and of
the nation, and to show that he is en
deavoring to right many evils and to
rule for the great good of the country.
Righteousness and Reform.
Many of the mandates are exhorta
tions to righteousness and reform.
Some of them deal with serious mat
ters of state and international politics,
while others read like sermons. One
which appeared recently says:
S"Gambling is an extremely harmful
pursuit. By it time is wasted, business
is impeded, families are ruined and,
wlmt is worse still, the minds of those
persons who indulge in it are weak
ened. Its deleterious influence under
mines all virtues and breeds corrup
tion. I am amazed to find that at
present this baneful habit has a foot
ing in the official circles as well as
Samidst the people. This practice was
started during the last years of the
Ching dynasty, when thie Manchu aris
tocrats and high officials threw off all
restraint. The exaimple set by those in
high stations was followed by the pco
ple, and today we find it hard to make
the people break away fromll this Ierni
clious pursuit.
"I learn that many officials are still
addicted to this evil habit. Are they
not aware of the ileavy responsibilities
devolving uipon thecir shoulders? A
new nation has just Ieen founded and
the vast amount of constructive work
of this new nation requires all the
energy her officials can give. After
office hours they caul profitably em
ploy their time studying good books
and making researches. Pleasure may
be found in the cndl.avIr to advance
one's knowledge and iilcultivate virtue."
Instructions are given the police for
the arrest of all offienders, no matter
what posts they hohl. and to confiscate
the money with which they gamble, to
be used to reward the police Ind gen
jlarmerie.
Another mandate just published
reads as follows: "Since the illaug
oration of the republi theill goverlnmentc
has been busily engaged planning and
EIG HITY MILLIONS
OF GERMANS
rICENSUS SHOWS THE EMPIRE
HAS DOUBLED IN POPULA
TION SINCE FORMED.
(By Associated Press Cable.)
Berlin, Jan. 10.-Gerniany w\\ill have
eighty million inhabitants in 1930,
twice its population when the empire
was founded in 1871, according to an
estimate based on the vital statistics
for the empire for 1912. Thie non
Prussian states have come to the res
cue with 2,000 more births than in
1911, offsetting the decrease of 3,04'
in births in Prussia, on which sucl
e gloomy assumptions of Germany's
I stagnation in polpulation were based
when the Prussian statistics were pub
lished a few weeks ago.
a The number of deaths in 1912 wase
the smallest ever recorded and the
number of marriages the greatest, so
the statistics on the whole make a
most satisfactory showing. The de
cline in the birth rate continues, but
the decrease is the smallest registered
in years. The rate was 29.1 births to
t every thousand inhabitants, as cornm
pared with 29.5 in 1911, 30.7 in 1910
- and 32 in 1909.
The population of the empire was
I increased by 889,887 through the excess
of births over deaths,* the surplus be
inag almost 100,00 grr.ater than in
1911.

`"When You Know Gas Light
You Will Prefer It"
It is our intention to give to the people of Missoula
the in formation, from week to week, that will enable
them to KNOW GAS LIGHTING as it really is. This
information will he strictly honest and dependable; as
will all of our advertising. We expect to give facts and
figures on the candle power of Modern Gas Lights, and
the Cost Per lHour for using them. These facts and
figures will not only be taken from reliable laboratory
tests, but also from experiments made in our own office
under actual cnditions of quality of gas, pressure, etc.
We propose further to tell you how to get the maximum
efficiency from your appliances at a minimum cost;
about the Pressure Regulators we are installing and
how they will assure you an even flow of gas at all times
without any variation of pressure; about gas piping and
the sizes that are correct for different runs. This in
formation will be given under the heading "When You
Know Gas Light You Will Prefer It," and if you feel
that any of the conditions of your gas installation are
wrong we will consider it a favor to be allowed to exam
ine same and to correct any conditions that may be in
terfering with absolutely Good Service.
