Prof Jevons has an article in a recent
number Of the Fortnightly, from which
the following passage, relating to the cru
city Of field sports, is taken:
Wyndham, in a remarkable speech |
which he made in favor of buIl-baiting.
asserted that in shooting there were ten
birds wounded for one bird killed. /
should think, or at least hope, that this
is an immense exaggeratiou; in the ab
sence of any data, I win assume that, for
for ten birds or rabbits killed outright,
there is only one painfully wounded.
Now, we can hardly suppose that the
number of birds and rabbits shot annually
in this kingdom is less than thirty mil
lions, and we arrive st the fearful result
that, to say the least, three million an
imals are painfully mangled annually,
partly to supply food, but mainly to af-
ford amusement to the wealthy. Let rs
grant, for the sake Of Argument. that
only half of these animals eOull be taken
painlessly by nets Then we must allow
fifteen hundred thousand wounded ami
mails suffer agOnies for the mere diversion
Of our sporting classes Strange to say,
this enormous infection of needless pain
is seldom thought cruel. The sport is
held to be a wholesome, manly exercise,
Demonstrating is cruel, although the
animal dies speedily and certainly
Rabbit shooting is not cruel, apparently
because the poor wounded animal which
escapes dies a lingering death out of sight
1t may be said that the sportsman doe
nothing more than the laws OF natur'
, authorize. He procures food by the mos
direct process, and kills animals in rap
id. painless way. But this does not at al
; hold good of all sporting. From m!
own observation can afhFm tina
many sp0rtsmen acquire taste for ID
simple wantOn destruction Of life apar
{ from all ulterior purposes. Provided Al
animal win only make good mOyini
target, they want to shoot it. They vii
; do this at sea, in woods and inaccessible
places where there is no possibility O
, recovering the animals, or of puttin
) them out of pain if badly wounded.

Agentleman just from the grasshopper
country furnishes the Republican some
interesting facts. He visited Marshall,
Shiek, Burns, and other points along the
western end of the Winonaand st. Peter
road. The young grasshOppers have at
tanned working size, and have began to
harvest the crop. At present their oper-
atoms are confined to strip of country
extending from Burns station to Saratos
ga, near Marshall, and covering terri
tory of fifty miles in length and reaching
in breadth from line some eight miles
north of the Winona and st. Peter rail-
road south to the St. Paul and Sioux
City road. The ravenous little hOPPers
are Just at present about half an inch
long, and will probably get their wings
bv the middle of this month or the first
of July. They are making clean sweep
of the wheat fields, many of which look
as black as when first sOwn. The grain

net attached to horserake caught forty
pounds of hoppers in the short space OF
three hours. Near Burns station cornis

ing their wheat fields to corn now. Peas
are also being largely planted. The ex-

CANDY as 4 CAUSE or IMPAIRED
SEGHE.

DR.. L. Cutler suggests, in an article
printet. in the Boston Journal of Chem
istry, that a free consumption of candy
may be a partial cause of the impaired
eyesight, which prevails to an alarming
extent among the children Of the present
generation. He cites the statement of
DIR. G. r.. Agnew, that out Of one thou
sand children under the age Of eighteen,
attending q certain school in New York
city, seven hundred and three were
found, ON examination with the oPhthal-
moscOpe, to have defective organs of Wis
ion. This large percentage was assumed
to represent the common average of de-
fective eyes among young people. As it
il a confirmed fact that teaspOonful OF
4 saturated solution Of sugar, injected
beneath the skin of frog or Guinea pig,
win produce blindness in half an hour,
DR.. Cutler proffers the query, il ii be
not reasonable to suppose that sugar
taken into the human system in undue
quantities, may iniuriOisly affect the
eyesight. Sugar is wanting In natritive
qualities. In tests applied to dOgs, il
has been found that death resulted in
forty DAYS from an exclusive diet of SUI
gar, while the eyes of animals subjected
to the experiment, liberated and dropped
out. The starch which forms % large an
element Of white -four i identical in its
formula with sugar and, - this cOnssi-
tntes . chief article Of food in most
households, DR.. Cutler urges that, in adj
dition, candy or sugar can hardly Be re-
garded "a an innocent substance.

this strange blindness In denying Christ, |
he answered on his oath--some Of the |
order attribute it to the commands Of |
the grand master made prisoner By the
sOldan Others assert it to be in imitation
and in remembrance Of ST. Peter, who
thrice denied Christ. The indictment
published by the court of Rome set forth
that in all the provinces they had idols,
that Is to say, heads, some Of which had
three faces, others but one; that in their
assemblies, and especially in their grand
chapters, they worship the idol g. q god,
az their savior, saying this head could
save them; that it bestowed ON the
order all its wealth, made the
trees, flowers and the plants of the
earth to sprout forth. Numerous depOsi-
tons Of the templars in France and Italy,
and much indirect evidence in England,
bore on this court with additional cir
cumstances. DeOdat Jafet, admitted
into the order at Pedenat, deposes that
he who admitted him showed him head
or idol which seemed to him to have
three faces, telling him; "This you
must worship as your Savior aud the
Savior of the order of the temple"
