shall re ;eive the first prize from an all wise
Judge whose judgment never errs.
At the conclusion of President Princes re-
marks, the presiding officer, Mr.. Gilbert, of
Turner, introduced Prof. MIC. Fernald of Orono
College, who delivered very entertaining and
instructive lecture on obstructive Insects and
the Methods of Destroying them" 1t is i'm
possible to give al abstract of the address and
we shall consequently confine our attention to
one insect which threatens to be very destruc-
tue in this state, viz, the Colorado potato bug.
Prof. Fernald said that the havoc of this beetle
in the West made his near approach ca use of
dismay. The egg of the potato bug or beetle is
of deep orange color and is deposited on the
leaves of the potato in patches Of 80 or 40.
which hatch in about week and then begin
their work Of destruction. In about fort
night the larvae attain their full growth, cease
feeding and work their way down into the
ground, where they pass into the pupa state,
from which the perfect beetle appears in ten
days. Seven days after maturity the beetles
pair and the females lay matches of eggs
each day for forty days. There
are three broods year, the first brood
remaining during the winter under the ground
and appearing in the spring. In view of the
fact that each female produces 700 eggs and
three broods year, DR.. Skinner estimates that
pair Of beetles would have progeny num-
bering 100000 of larvae. This estimate
causes us to tremble for the potato crop. All
we can do is to provide ourselves against the
ravages of the insect. Paris green is the only
remedy. The most approved way of using it is
to dust the vines when the dew is on, but as
it is very poisonous, the green should be
mixed with ten or twelve parts of flour.
1t can also be applied with sprinkler. using a
table spoonful of green to pail of water. 1t
must be frequently stirred up else the green
will sink to the bottom of the vessel. we
hope to be able to give more of this lecture at
another time G. E. Bracket Of Belfast fol-
lowed in interesting remarks on the subject of
insects.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

CoRNUcoprA.-G. n. Miller, r. G.
Reeves and Ed Rinkel Of Unionville,
arrived here yesterday from Cornu-
copia. where they have been taking a
look at the mines. They say the road
between winnemucca and those mines
is one Of the best natural roads in the
State. No mountains intervene, but
there are sideling places on the road
that ought to be attended to. An ex-
penditure of few hundred dollars in
improvements would make the road all
that could be desired. and insure the
greater part of the trade and travel to
Winnemucca. Our business men
should see that this matter ia attended
to, and contribute the amount neces-
sary to make the improvements.

FROM UTAH.

OGDEN, April 81.
Eight DAVIS mail matter from San
Francisco has accumulated and is now
being distributed at this point, inclnd-
ing about 1000 registered packages
valued at 5000. 000 A force of nine
mail agents have been sent here to as
sist in the work. They have set to
work in earnest. and this evening COM
pleted the assortment of all the mails.
so they are ready to be delivered at all
way stations between here and Omaha,
and also at all points east of Omaha.
1t is estimated that there are 100, 900
letters and 600 sacks of newspapers en-
route from the East. A force of mail
agents will be sent ont to Green River
morrow to receive the mails, and
begin the work of distributing, so as
to gain time and have it ready for de-
livery as Quick as possible. In addi-
ton to this the az ents of the express
companies have also in addition to the
mail matter about half million in coin
and eight tons of silver bars for the
east. Persons not acquainted with the
railroad business have but faint idea
of the expense these breaks have cost
the Union Pacific Railroad. They are
far more costly than the snow blockade
of three years ago.

A special from Pottsville says meet

discussed and voted on whether to con-
tinue the strike or not. Many miners
are leaving the region to seek employ.

The Papal ambassadors from Rome
who brought Nc Closkey' 3 red hat go to
Baltimore to-day, visiting Archbishop
Bailey until that prelate comes to New

that ceremony the ENJOYS will visit the
new Archbishops. who are to receive
pallium, remaining few days with
each. They will then make tour for
few weeks through the South and

Bishops. It is expected they will re-
ceive quite an ovation during their
tour.
OMAHA, April a..
Two fresh washouts occurred to-day
east of Evanston, but were repaired by
dark, so that the road is passable ex-
cept at the place east of Green River
station. The water at this station is
still so high that no work can be done
on the bridges. and the water is falling
very slowly. 1t is now calculated that
these bridges will be repaired by Tues
day. so that trains leaving Omaha next
| Sunday will go through without trans
ferring. One train which was detained
at Green River will reach Omaha to-
morrow noon; One west-bound will
reach Ogden in tho morning. There
are 1000 west-bound passengers in
Omaha, who will be sent out as fast as
cars for their transportation can be
supplied. The weather along the entire
road is spring like.

Court next Saturday As there is much

small for case of this character, and
will not afford standing-room for oil

view last evening with j. W. Rover,
who has been arrested on suspicion for
the murder of j. N. Sharp. He APP

sive little fellow, and certainly nothing
In his manner or appearance indicates
the brutal murderer, which Sharp's
butcher must have heen. He expressed
willingness, and in fact q desire to
make a statement, bnt said that his
lawyer, who is now attending the in
quest where the murder was committed,
advised him to make no statement
during his absence. The general hope
is that some evidence may be brought
before the Corober's jury that will clear
away the mystery which now enshrouds
this terrible affair, and that will
leave no doubt AS to who the guilty
party is. 1t seems tolerably certain
that during the week which elapsed be-
tween the time Sharp is said to have
disappeared and McWortby's coming
to Mill City no very diligent search
could have been made for the miss
ing man, as his coat was discovered
by the Sheriff within few hundred
yards OF the camp, where it had
been thrown on a sagebrush. Yet
those two men. McWorthy and Rover,
