Colorado and the GrasshOppers.

The grasshoppers that pretty nearly
cleaned out Colorado last year have ap-
peared again this spring in great swarms.
A late letter thence says: The farmers
are fighting them by all the means in
their power. They sluice them down
the bitches with water, gather them up
in heaps and burn them-for the water
will only collect, and not drown, these
very vital pests. They set cans of oil
dripping slowly at the heads of their
bitches, and the slightest touch of the
oily film, floating down with the running
water, destroys the young grasshopper.
They drag the ground with huge har-
rows, covered with blazing brush, and
the flame scorches its tiny millions to
death. They draw papers or platforms
smeared with tar along the fields. and
the insects, trying to hop over, fall on
the tar and stick there. With all these
devices they only thin out the unwel-
come visitors. All Colorado is watching
the result of these efforts with entomo-
logical interest. Will the farmers or the
grasshoppers come out firsta Will the
latter fly away as soon as they develop
wings; and if so, will other broods be
brought in by strong prairie winds? If
the crops fail again, look for blue times
in Denver, which has no interests except
supplying mining districts and fleeing
summer visitors.

The Chinese Cues.

The history of Chinese cues is told by
the Rev. julius Doolittle, missionary
in China, as follows: The first emperor
of the present dynasty, who begun to
reign in 1914, having usurped the
throne, determined to make the tonsure
of Manchuria, his native country, the
token of the submission of the Chinese
to his authority. He ordered them to
shave all the head excepting the crown,
and allowing the hair on that part to
grow long and to dress it according to
the custom of Manchuria. The Chinese
had been accustomed, under native en-
perors, to wear long hair over the whole
head, and to arrange it in tuft or coil.
The change was gradual, but finally
prevailed through the empire. At first
those who shaved their heads and con-
formed to the laws, received, it is said,
present of tael of silver, after while
only half a tael, and then only tenth
of tael, and afterward only an egg
finally even an egg was not allowed.
The law requiring the people to shave
their head and braid the cue was not
often rigidly enforced by the penalty of
immediate death, but it became very
manifest that those who did not conform
to the wishes of the dominant dynasty
would never become successful in law
suit against those who did conform, nor
would they succeed at the literary ex.
Aminations.

A Nice Legal Point.

A case involving a very nice point for
the consideration of the court is at pres
ent receiving the attention of the surro-
gate of Kings county, N. Y, being no
less than the decision of the question of
the inheritance of property left by
Henry r. Rogers, formerly of Brooklyn,
and his wife, who were burned on board
the steamer City of Waco on the night
of November 8, 1875, while on the pas
sage from New York to Galveston,
Texas. The steamer was overtaken by a
severe storm, struck by lightning and
burned, every soul on board perishing in
the flames. The question involved is
which died first. the husband or the
wife9 The friends of both claim So, 900
which Mrs. Rogers had deposited in a
Brooklyn savings bank, those of the hus-
band contending that the wife must have
died first, because her husband, being
the strongest of the two, would be likely
to survive the longest under the circum-
stances, and that, therefore, they claim
the money through the husband, who in
herited it from his wife. Further hear
ing of the case was postponed.

War Is Threatened.

Latest advices afford little hope that
war will be averted between Servia and
Turkey. Prince Milan left Belgrade for
the army, amid cheers from the people
and salutes from the batteries. The
church appears to share in the popular
enthusiasm, all the bishops having gone
to the frontier to bless the troops. The
Russian general, Tehernaieff, who is an
officer in the Servian army, recently de-
clared that Prince Milan has at his COM
mand 1880 infantry, 1000 cavalry,
and 200 field guns. He predicts that
the Servians will be victorious, and
hopes his countrymen will approve his
efforts to rescue the Christians of the
Balkan from the degrading and intoler-
able rule of the Turks. These senti,
ments explain, in part, the intense anxi-
ETY. of the Scrvians to be led against
their ancient enemy.

A Singular Avalanche.

One of the bins of the elevator Mt st.
Paul bursted. The bin was 20x30 feet
in width, about seventy feet deep, and
was filled with wheat from the bottom to
the top, the amount being estimated at
"a, 900 bushels. About noon the discovery
was made that the wheat was pushing
out the side of the elevator at distance
of thirty or forty feet from the top,
and that several iron stay rods which
crossed the bin had snapped asunder.
Efforts were promptly made to reduce
the pressure by a removal of the wheat,
but it was too late, for at about one
o'clock the crash came, the wooden tim
bers were burst asunder, the iron sheath
ing was ripped off and scattered to the
winds, and out rushed the wheat in a
gigantic stream twenty feet in diameter,
pouring over the side of the bluff, piling
upon the fiat and carrying before it and
crushing into fragments a shanty, stu
ated on the bottom, about fifty feet from
the elevator. The inmates of the shan
ty had been apprised of the danger and
escaped, though they had no time to get
out any of their household effects.
The torrent of wheat, as it came run
ming down, is said to have presented an
imposing sight, and the power of the
deluge was apparently irresistible. The
whole amount thus discharged from the
ragged hole in the elevator was various
ly estimated at from seven to ten thou
sand bushels, and it took but few min
utes to deposit this upon the ground at
the foot of the elevator, forming a pile
of about seventy five feet square, the
depth of wheat being ten or fifteen feet
at the point where it struck the earth,
and then tapering down to foot OF
two in depth near the outer edge deposit.

Useful Notes.

A new cement for uniting metallic to
non metallic substances is composed of
thin made glue mixed to the consistence
of thick varnish with wood ashes. The
ashes should be added generally to the
glue during ebullition, with constant
stirring, and the cement should be used
hot.
A strong mucilage capable of fasten-
ing wood or porcelain and glass together
is made of eight and one-third ounces
strong gum arabic solution, to which n
solution of thirty grains sulphate OF
aluminium dissolved in two third ounces
water is added.
Carbolic acid paper, now largely used
for packing fresh meats, in order to pre-
serve them, is prepared by melting five
parts stearine at a gentle heat and then
stirring in two parts carbolic acid, and
afterward five parts melted paratfine.
The mass is we'll stirred until cool, and
is then applied with o brush to. the
paper.
Care should be exercised in handling
carbolic acid, as in certain cases it is an
active poison. A saturated solution of
carbolic acid in alcohol, with an equal
quantity of water, rubbed into scratch
on cats nose, has killed the animal
almost as promptly as prussic acid would
have done.
A method recommended for removing
moths from carpets is to pour strong
alum water on the floor to distance Of
half yard around the edges before
tacking down. Then occasionally
spread dry salt over the carpet before
sweeping.
The best method of producing crys,
talline surfaces on timed iron and other
metals is to immerse the plates for not
longer than ten seconds in a mixture of
three parts hydrochloric and one part
nitric acid diluted with an equal bulk of
water. Wash the plates in water after
their immersion.

A Billiard Story.

John Seereiter used to do some fancy
playing at his billiard hall. A rather
yerdant looking chap came in one day
and as no one else was there Seereiter
obligingly offered to play game with
him. Barkis was willin', and so coats
We're hung up and John strung for the
lead, won it and run the game out, while
his opponent looked on in helpless
sort of way till John got through
punching the balls. When the punch
ing and the game were concluded the
stranger put on his coat and deliberate
ly started for the door.
"Hold on squire" said the genial
John. "Guess you've forgotten some
thing-whose to pay for those bill
liards9"
Hain't played no billiards." was the
response, and when John come to think
1t over he hadn't.

A Large Poultry Yard.

The following account of the largest
poultry yard in New York State is given I:
It is at Greene. Chenango county, and is
Kept by Mr.. A. B. Robeson. He has
six thousand ducks, four thousand tur-
keys and twelve hundred hens. They
consume daily sixty bushels of corn,
two barrels of meal, two barrels of pota-
toes, and quantity Of charcoal. The
meal, potatoes and charcoal are boiled
together aud form a pudding, Which is
fed warm. He eemploys two men to cook the
feed and feed .hem. He has twelve
buildings for his fowls, from one hun
dred to two hundred feet long, fourteen
feet wide and seven feet under the caves,
with door in each end of them. Mr..
Robson bought most of his ducks in
the West, and had them shipped in
crates-three dozen in crate. He also
has an egg house, thirty-five by fifty
feet, and four stories high, The outside
is eighteen inches thick, and built of
cut stone, laid in mortar, boarded up on
the inside and filed in between the out
side and inside wall with sawdust, it
taking three thousand bushels. Mr..
Robson claims that he can keep eggs
any length of time in this building. He
also keeps the poultry that he is now
dressing until next May or June, which
he sells for eighteen to twenty-five
cents per pound, and it capuot be told
from fresh dressed poultry. He gets
ten cents per pound for turkeys feathers,
twelve for hen g and sixty five for ducks.
He says there is money in poultry, and
he thinks he can make out of his six
thousand ducks enough to pay for his
egg house, which cost $1,000. He in-
tends to keep a great many more next
season, and has agents out all over the
country buying up poultry and eggs.

The Chances Of War,

We halted and formed square in the
middle of the plain. AS we were per-
forming this movement bugler of the
Fifty first who had been out with skir-
mishers and had mistaken our square
for his own, exclaimed: "Here l am
again, safe enough" The words were
scarcely out of his mouth when a round
shot took off his head and spattered the
ors and the ensigns in charge of them
coming in for an extra share. One of
them, Charles Fraser, a fine gentleman
in speech and manner, raised laugh by
drawling out: "How extremely dis
gusting !" A second shot carried off
six of the mems bayonets, third broke
tho breast bono of lance sergeant (Rob-
inson), whose piteous cries were any
thing but encouraging to his youthful
comrades. The soldiers belief that "ev-
cry bullet has its billet" was strength
ened by another shot striking Ensign
Cooper, the shortest man in the regi-
ment, and in the very center of the
square. These casualties were the affair
of a second. We were now ordered to
lie down. Our square, hacdly large
enough to hold us when standing up
right, was too small for us in recum-
bent position. Our men lay packed to-
gether like herrings in a barrel. Not
finding vacant spot seated myself on
drum. Behind me was the colonel's
charger, which, with his head pressed
against niue, was mumbling my epau-
lettc, while 1 patted his cheek. Sudden
ly my drum capsized and l was thrown
PROSTATE, with the feeling of blow on
the right cheek. l put my hand to my
head, thinking half my face was shot
away, but the skin was not even abrad-
ed. A piece of shell had struck the horse
on the nose exactly between my hand
and my head, and killed him instantly.
The blow l received was from the en-.
bossed crown on the horses bit.

In Algeria there is river of genuine
ink. 1t is formed by the union of two
streams, one coming from a region of
ferruginous soil, and the other draining a
peat swamp. The water of the former
is strongly impregnated with iron, that
of the other with gallic acid. When the
two waters mingle the acid of the one
unites with the iron Of the other, form
ing true ink.

A Turned Down Page.

A turned UOWn rage.
There's a turned down page, as some writer
says,
In every human life
A hidden story Of happier days
or peace amid the strife;
f,lded leaf that the world knows not
A love dream rudely crushed;
The sight Il foe that is not forrot
Altho' the voice be husbed.
The far distant sounds Of bsrp's soft strings,
An echo on the air;
The hidden page may be full OF such things,
or things that once we're fair.
There is hidden page in each life, and mine
A story might unfold;
But the end was sad Of the dream divine
1t better rests untold.
