A GRASSHOPPER STORY.
The MIsfOrtunes of. q Kansas Woman
Who Put PAINFUL or Dirt under the
stove.

VINO Eut = t'hnIuA OF DArl unueE the
stove.
St. Louis Globe.
a gentleman who has just returned from
Cherokee county, Kansas, is full with re-
markable "reminiscences of the grasshOppers
infesting that vicinity. He will stand
around for an hour, relating the hair-breadth
escapes of the people whom the hOppers
have completely OverTun, and who are
leaving their homes and fleeing from the
fearful scOurge. The traveller IS inclined
to think that many of the crimes attributed
to the James boys are to be traced to the
more hardened aud dissOlute grasshOppers,
many Of whom, he says, are arming with
shot guns and organizing a sort Of home
guard for offensive and defensive purposes.
One of his most credible stories is to the
effect that, few weeks ago, a woman dug
up painful Of dirt in which to plant some
flower seed. She put the pan under the
stove, and went out to see a neighbOf.
Upon her return, after an hours absence,
she found seven thousand bushels of grass
hoppers generated by the heat, literally
eating her out of house and home. They
first attacked the green shades on the win
dOWs, and then green-painted dust-pan.
A green Irish ser5ant girl, asleep in one Of
the rooms, was the next victim, and
not a vestige of her was left. The stove
and stoVe-pipe followed, and then the
house was torn down so they
could get at the chimney. Boards, joists,
beams, plastering, clothing, nails, hinges,
door knobs, plates, tin-ware, everything, in
fact, the house contained, was eaten up,
and when she arrived within a mile of the
place, she saw two Of the largest hoppers
sitting up on end and playing mumble-peg
with carving knife, for which should have
the cellar.
The way the matter leaked out was on a
suit brought against the insurance compa-
ny, which refused to pay the policy on the
ground that the building was not destroyed
by fire; but the court rendered verdict for
the plaintiff, as she had proven that the
we're generated by fire in the
stove.

UNION AND AMERICAN OFFICE,
TUESDAY, May IL, 1875.
As lifetime rolls around nowadays for q
weekly review we are at loss for interest
ing facts to recall or premises to argue
from. Times are getting very quiet, as no
body could have failed to fOrsee long ago.
We do not wish, however, to be emphatic
on the dullness of trade; for there is
steady, general business going on in the
city, and we have no complaint Of stag
nancy. Neither do we expect to hear this,
even in the summer, because the merchants
are generally satisfied with what they are
doing. To use their own common answer
to the query, frequently put with kind of
eontortion of facial expression by non
commercial people, whether "trade is not
very dull, /" they 'are doing as much BUSH
ness as they want to do. There is not
money enough in the country to warrant a
bigger movement Of merchandise or other
For the past week the
weather has been fair and very suspicious
for activity in business circles.
