The supreme court of the state will be asked to put’ the four-year-old: Petitions of the citizens of New Rock- ford for the changing of the location of the state capital from Bismarck tu that city on the ballot at the fall election. ‘J, a. ‘Richards, representative ot the Community club of ‘New Rock- ford, ‘today served notice on attor- neys of the intention to file a mo- tion to -vaeate ithe supreme couri judgment of four. years ago denying a vote on the petitions. «a few days ago Secretary of State Hall refused to place the question before the voters on the basis of the Se | old petitions, because four years ago the supreme court held that the law providing. for the initiation of consti- tutional amendments was not self- operative. This decision was revers- ed by a court later. ; Mr. Richards declared that the su- preme. court changed the previous construction of law, and therefore the court is asked to vacate the old judg- ment.

An- mens of bats, n on that and other islands in the West Indies, ~ ‘ “The only mammals native to the islands today,” Mr. Anthony said, “are of rodent, These different bats range ‘in size from small bats, with a wing spread. of six inches, up to very large bats, with-a wing spread of from twen- ty-eight to thirty inches.” bats are comparatively rare animals, dance of them in such a place as Ja- matca, or of the Important economic}, They are either jn- {4 value of the bat, Sect-eating or feed on fruits. The in- sect-eating varieties are small for the]. most part, and have considerable yal- ue as insect destroyers, They feed on mosquitoes and on a great variety of winged insect life, many of which are obnoxious to, man or injurious -to agriculture, se Homes in Caves. The island ts composed largely of limestone, and caves are of frequent occurrence, and ‘these caves are the abode of ‘by far the, greater part of. the bat population. Many caves are small, but not infrequently caves are found which are several miles in length. Some such have great sub- terranean chambers through which rivers run, passing completely under some small mountain chain; others have a series of tntercommunicating chambers through which a person may walk for hours without retracing his steps. It-fs in such places that innu- merable hosts of .these pecullar ani- mals may be found, and it is no exag- gefation to estimate their numbers ir a single large cave as 10,000 or 15,000 individuals, ¢ When a person enters such a cave | and disturbs the Inmates a scene of wild confusion ensues, in which a ver- ‘Itable whirlwind of flying forms may deluge the intruder and rush about through every part of the cave. To one to, whom ‘a bat is a repulsive and’ dia- bolical creature such an ‘intimacy who understands the bat it is a most Interesting experience. Such a meet- ing affords an opportunity for an Inti- mate Insight into the animal's home life. While the flight of the bat under normal. circumstances Is__ perfectly, noiseless, In such chambers in which thousands of individuals are flying wildly about the noise of their wings. sounds like a“great wind storm. In the eaves are great piles of guano deposited by the bats. These deposits sometimes are 15 or 20 feet thick and are valuable as fertilizer; it is used by natives on fields. cave many tons may be taken out without exhausting the supply. There are species of bats, such as the frult- group. They come out of their homes an hour before dark and fly about fruit trees, searching for ripe fruit. They eat a great variety of fruits, depend- ing on the season and locality. They eat bananas, naseberries, sweetsop, ripe , coffee berrfes;, rose-apples and many other varieties. Fish-Eating Bat. loose and fly away with it, but if it Is large they cling to Itand-eat it on the tree. Some of the smaller fruit-eat- ing bats are very highly developed for the purpose of living off fruits, and some have very long tongues; one such variety with a body not larger than ‘two and a half or three inches has a tongue which may be protruded an Inch'and a half beyond the nose. A peculiar specimen is the so-called fish- eating bat, which has been observed swooping from the surface minute crustaceans and marine forms. Enemies of ‘bats are owls which catch fruit-eating bats and the large snake boa of the West Indies. Bats are soctal in habit and not solitary, and they have pecullar’ social char- acteristics. If four different varieties of bats are found in a cave, each kind keeps to its own group and does not fraternize with .others. The same fs true of sex. Clusters of males are in ‘one group and clusters of females in another. Bats are nervous creatures, highly strung, and aeute of hearing. They‘are among the oldest ving mam- mals. Bats, those who have studied them say, do not get tangled in one’s Lair, and they will not attack one, yet 3 grabbed they will bite, and the targer bats have sharp teeth. There are more than 2,000 different varieties of bats in the world. The two major groups are divided into in- sectivores and the large fruit-eating bats. | WANTED —Boy for general work.
