State
DECISION, BY JUDGE CLEMENTS.
Sustains Demurrer of Defendants in
the Club Pool Room Case, Holding
that Civil Action Cannot be Main
tained to Enforce Payment.
The making of books the acceptance
of tvagçs and the selling of pools on
horse races must be classed among
gaming devices such as roulette, faro
and other gambling games, and are
therefore under the ban according to !
I
I
the anti-gambling law oi the state of j
Montana. I
This being so,licenses attempting !
to permit poolrooms to operate in this
state are void.
This is the decision of Judge J. M.
Clements, of department two of the
Lewis and Clarke county district
court, as expressed in his opinion on
the demurrer in the case of the city
of Helena against Louis Johnson,
Samuel Wallin, H. I. Wilson and J.
J. Kelley. The opinion was handed
down yesterday.
Some weeks ago the city bought a
civil suit against the parties named
for the purpose of collecting $1,070,
claimed as back license for the privi
lege of conducting the Club poolroom
in this city. The defendants, through
their counsel. Albert J. Galen, en
tered a general demurrer to the com
plaint. Argument was heard by the
court last week, Mr. Galen and City
Attorney Edward Horsky arguing for
and against the demurrer, respective
ly. In his opinion Judge Clements
sustains the demurrer and dismisses
the complaint. Under this decision
should it be upheld by the supreme
court, no poolroom can be operated
except in violation of the state's law
against gambling.
Judge Clements' opinion follows:
"The defendants interpose a gen
eral demurrer to the complaint
herein.
"The complaint alleges that the de
fendant on certain days, did make
books, propose and accept wagers
upon and sell pools on race horses,
without having obtained a license
therefor from -the city as provided by
ordinance.
"The keeping of books, accepting
wagers and selling pools upon horse
races cannot be viewed in any other
light than that it is a gaming device,
as much so as the keeping of a gam
ing table where a wager is risked
upon any other sort of device or un
certain event.
"Contracts having for their con
sideration the carrying on of an un
lawful business are void as against
public policy, and courts will not en
force them. For the same reason a
civil suit cannot be maintained to en
force the payment of a license fee,
provided by ordinance, for carrying
on an unlawful business.
"The authorities hold that a civil ac
tion cannot be maintained to enforce
the payment of arears of license in
the absence of a statute or ordinance
providing such remedy. The allega
tions of the complaint nowhere dis
closes the existence of such an ordi
nance.
"For these reasons the demurrer is
sustained and the complaint dis
missed."—Helena Independent.

NO BOERS FOR MONTANA.
Mr.
Wormser Does Not Expect to In
terest Them In This State.
A. Wormser of Wormser City,
Sweet Grass county, who is in Hel
ena, said today that he did not be
lieve any settlers from among the
Boers would locate in Montana. Mr.
Wormser has been instrumental in
locating several colonies of Holland
ers in Montana, and more than a year
ago he undertook to interest some of
the fugitive Boers in Holland in the
great northwestern section of the
United States. At various times it
was reported that he expected to se
cure a number of Boer farmers for
Montana, but he has given up all
idea of locating any of them here.
"There are still many Boers in Hol
land, where they fled after being
driven from their homes in the
Transvaal.," said Mr. Wormser, "but
I do not now expect to interest any
of them in this state. In my opinion
the war in South Africa is nearly
over, and when peace is finally de
I dared, I believe these Boers will re
j urn their homes and again take
I up their work. I undertook to inter
! est some of the leading Boers in Hol
en
a
en
ac
in
dis
is
dis
land in a colonization plan by which
some of the vacant lands in this state
might be used by them, but the plan
did not succeed.
"There are three classes of Boers
but only one of them would make de
sirable settlers for this state. One
class includes the office holders, gov
ernment employes and men formerly
employed on the railroads of the
Transvaal; another class includes the
old time Boer families, which, until
the war broke out, moved about from
place to place with their herds and
other belongings, while the third in
eluded the younger generation of
land owners, men who had gone to
the Trasvaal from Holland, or whose
fathers had preceded them, and se
cured landed holdings, which they
cultivated. It was this latter class
that made the desirable settlers, and
although many returned to Holland,
where I myself was born and raised,
I could not get them out here. These
people will, I believe, return to their
old homes soon. From the dispatches
in your own and other papers, it
seems that peace is not far off, and
with it the Boers will undoubtedly
return to their devastated country
to begin life all over again."—Helena

FANCY BREADS.
Give an Attractive Tonrh to a Plain
or Limited Mena.
Where much entertaining is done,
especially on a slender Income, fhe
housewife is often at her wits' end to
furnish a variety. To one familiar with
their possibilities fancy breads afford a
wide field and lend very material -aid
in eking out what might otherwise
prove a too frugal meal for the hostess'
ideas of hospitality, says a Good
Housekeeping writer in preface to
•ome recipes, includiug the following:
When company drops in unexpected
ly for luncheon or tea. it Is but a few
minutes' work to put together a deli
cious Sally Lunn after the following
fashion: Measure one cup of sugar and
one-half cup of butter and lard mixed,
beat slightly, add two whole eggs and
beat again till thick and creamy. Now
pour in a cup of sweet milk and three
cups of sifted flour containing two tea
spoonfuls of baking powder. Put In a
deep pan with a spout to it, grate nut
meg liberally over the top and bake
thirty minutes.
Queen mufiins are especially nice and
once gave-the desired extra touch to a
meal which was to have consisted of a
dish of the much despised hash and
plain bread and butter. Aided by the
muffins and a pot of chocolate, it pass
ed muster very creditably. Three eggs,
beaten separately, will be required for
these, although two may be mr.de to
serve. To one quart of sweet milk add
four tablespoonfuls of melted butter, a
saltspoonful of salt, the yolks of the
eggs and two generous teaspoonfuls of
baking powder mixed with two pints
of sifted flour. When this has been
stirred in, add enough more flour to
make a rather stiff batter, then the
beaten whites. Have the pans well
greased and piping hot.
For luncheon nothing is nicer than a
hot currant loaf. It Is also cheap, a
desideratum. One tablespoonful of but
ter, one cup of sugar, one egg, a little
over a half cup of milk, one and one
half cups of flour, one teas^oonful oi
baking powder. When well mixed, add
three-quarters of a cup of '•urrr.nts
lightly dusted with flour. Bake in a
loaf.

HOW THE CHINESE GET RAIN
Some Peculiar Practices In Vogne In
tlie Celestial Kingdom.
It is one of the peculiarities of the
Chinese that, while they have develop
ed elaborate philosophers, none of them
has led to any confidence in the uni
formity of nature. Neither the people
nor their rulers have any fixed opinion
as to the cause of rainfall. The plan in
some provinces when the need of rain
is felt is to borrow a god from a neigh
boring district and petition him for the
desired result. If his answer is satis
factory, he is returned to his home
with every mark of honor; otherwise
he may be put out in the sun as a hint
to Avake up and do his duty. A bunch
of willow is usually thrust into his
hand, as AVillow is sensitive to mois
ture.
Another plan in extensive use is the
building of special temples in which
are wells containing several iron ta
bles. When there is a scarcity of rain,
a messenger starts out with a tablet
marked Avitli the date of the journey
and the name of the district making
the petition. Arriving at another city,
he pays a sum of money and is allowed
to draw another tablet from the well,
throwing in Ills own by way of ex
change. On the return journey lie is
supposed to eat only bran and travel at
top speed day and night. Sometimes be
passes through districts as greatly in
need of rain as bis own. Then the peo
ple in these places Avaylay him and,
temporarily borrowing his tablet, get
the rain intended for another place.
Prayers are usually made in the fifth
and sixth months, when the rainfall is
always due, and a limit of ten days is
set for their effective operation. Under
such conditions rain usually falls dur
ing the prescribed time. When the
prayers are in progress, the umbrella,
among other objects, comes under the
ban. In some provinces foreigners have
been mobbed for carrying this harm

A THIEF AMONG THE ANGELS
SpnrReon Correctetl His Opinion of
What He Might Do.
One day the mayor of Cambridge,
who had tried to curb Mr. Spurgeon's
tendencies to sensationalism, inquired
of him if he had really told his congre
gation that If a thief got into heaven
he Avould begin picking the angels'
pockets.
"Yes, sir," the young preacher re
plied, "I told them that if it were pos
sible for an ungodly man to go to
heaven Avithout having his nature
changed he would be none the better
for being there, and then, by way of
illustration, I said that were a thief to
get in among the glorified he would
remain a thief still, and he would go
around the place picking the angels'
pockets."
"But, my dear young friend," asked
the mayor seriously, "don't you know
that the angels haven't any pockets?"
"No, sir," replied young Spurgeon,
with equal gravity, "I did not know
that, but I am glad to be assured of
the fact from a gentleman who does
know. I will take care to put it all
right the first opportunity I get."
The next Monday morning Spurgeon
walked into the mayor's place of busi
ness and said to him cheerfully, "I
set that matter right yesterday, sir."
"What matter?" he inquired.
"Why, about the angels' pockets."
"What did you say?"
"Oh, sir, I just told the people I was
sorry to say that I had made a mis
take the last time I preached to them,
but that I had met a gentleman, the
mayor of Cambridge, who had assured
me that the angels had no pockets, so
I must correct what I had said, as I
did not want anybody to go away with
a false notion about heaven. I would
therefore say that if a thief got among
the angels without having his nature
changed he would try to steal the
feathers out of their wings!"—Homi
