Apropos to our article in answer to an inquiring
correspondent on the uses OF the bed Dug, here
is something which imparts value TO the
winged nuisance which aids and abets the afore-
said crawling individual in his Macbeth like
efforts toward numbering sleep. DR.. Samuel W.
Francis says that it is his firm conviction that
the MOSQUITO was created for the purpose OF
driving man out of the malarial districts" and
sthat no region where chills and fever pre-
vail can be free from the pest" Now,n he adds,
/" ID man will not go after the warning is given in
humming accents. then the moequito injects
hypodermically little liquid which answers two
purposes first, to render the blood. thin enough
TO be drawn up through its tube, and second, to
inject that which possesses the PRINCIPLES OF
quinine."
The difficulty with this roseate view sof the
mosquito family is that It imposes upon the pro-
FOUNDER the necessity OF explaining why it is
that, in hundreds Of perfectly healthy localities,
the insects appear in swarms, also why the fe-
males alone have been constituted the.
biters, to the exclusion Of the males,
and why, if the fluid in the proboscis pos
sesses quinine properties, it has been known
to cause ugly ulcers. We do not propose to &C
accepttDr. Francis's theory 20 hastily We de-
cline to admit that the mosquitoes are Of any use
save to the birds and the bats, to the inventors

DUBLIN's ANTICIPATIoNs,
from the Dublin Evening Post


June is likely this year to be gay month for
the good citizens Of Dublin. We regret to learI
from the New York Herald that some famous
American shots can not come over, owing to pri-
vate engagements. We have no desire that our
countrymen should obtain chance victory We
want real bona tide trisl of skill and endurance
between the members Of the Irish and American
rifle teams. II ireland, despite of go many dis
heartening obstacles, was able last year to send
across the Atlantic . team that nearly scored a
complete, while it actually won virtual, victory
over the combined marksmen of the United
States surely it is not credtabe for great, free
and ,ich people, like our American cousins, to be-
already making excuses for anticipated defeats.
American rifemen who mean to do their utmost,
and to dare the worst our countryfhen can inflict
upon them. The Ulster Ride Association is
busily brushing W. for the coming struggle,
and we are sure thar Major Leech is too old
soldier to let his own deta hment rest lazily up
on previous laurels. The Lord Mayor is re-
solved to do the honors Of the city in style be-
coming his antecedents and the ancient fame OF
Irish hospitality. 1t is stated that the LORD
Mayor of London, the Lord Mayor of York, the
Project Of the Seine and number of lesser mu-
nicipal dignitaries will be among the invited
guests Of our worthy chief magistrate.
Other local pubic bodies are also about to come
forward in creditable manner, in respect to our
American friends. With fine weather, of which
we have every prospect, June is likely to be long
remembered in the red letter annals of the Irish
metropolis. The college, races" will set the
ball rolling on the 9Th and 9Th, then will quickly
vice Athletic clubs. The heavy work Of Parlia-
ment will be on the move toward the end Of next
month, when the great rifle contest will take
place. SO that there Is every reason to antic pate
large influx OF distinguished visitors from Eng
land as well as from America and the Continent.
Trade cannot but be benefited from this welcome
invasion, concerning which our chief regret ia.
that it should not be OF longer duration.
