Bismarck has his own way as regards
the legislative raid against the German
Socialists. His bill for suppressing
them, if their ideas pass into action Or
written or spoken utterance, has been
passed by the imperial Reichstadt or
Parliament by majority of seventy-two,
and is to remain in force for two years
and half. The Reichstadt consists of
s97 deputies from every section of the
German empire, and $40 of these voted
tor or against the Socialist bill. There
was majority of 70 in favor of the bill.
It has been said that the greatincrease
of grasshoppers Qocusts) west of the Mis-
sissippi of late years is due to the destruc-
ton of grouse. This, however, is mis-
take, since, as is we'll known, this de-
structive locust has its breeding grounds
in wild and unsettled districts in the far
West, and when they reach more eastern
regions during the flying season the Or
binary birds of country would go a
very small way towar Is their destruction.
Nevertheless, it is undoubtedly true that
to the wholesale destruction not only of
grouse, but of quails and other birds, is
due much of the destruction of crops by
insects that have of late years been rife
in the West.

In the view of the failure of cipher
dispatches to retain their secrets, the
curious are making Investigations to de-
termine how the ancients carried on cor
respondence not intended for the public.
Tablets of wood on which the letter was
written and then covered with wax were
one device. Eplstels were sent in the
stomachs of dead ANIMALS. Histiaeus in
Persia sent communication to Ar1sta-
goras in Greece, on the subject of melting
10 revolt against the Persian government
in curious way. He shaved the head OF
one of his servants, impressed the secret
message on smooth, bald spot, and when
the hair had grown again sent him off to
Greece. A second shaving enabled this
animated cipher despatch to preform his
errand. The servant knew nothing of the
message which he was carrying, being led
to the believe that the first shaving. the
rough treatment of his head. and the final
shaving were steps in his cure from
disease of the eyes. ~

ticed on the lake few days since. It was
che of those peculiarly soft Indian summer
evenings when a party of five of US we're
rowing ac' oss the lake that we accidentally
discovered that we were in very marked
echo. loud halo was repeated five times.
A gun was fired a number of times, and
from each report nine distinct echoes were
counted. Mr.. Hull, who has visited Echo
canon in California, says he never heard an
echo half SO marked there. We also noticed
that when the gun was fired the fish for
acres jumped out of the water, and the lake
looked as though shower of fish had fallen
upon it.
Douglas County Neps: One night last week
bear tried to carry off hog belonging to
E. F. Jenson, of Leaf Valley. The noise
awakened Mr.. Jenson, who seized his gun
and let bruin have dose of buckshot, kill
ing him instantly. x One morning, the
first of the week, as w. F. Garfield was driv-
ing across the prairie south of G. H. Raiter's
pasture, about a half mile from town, he say
large timber wolf some distance away. He
drove his horse in close proximity to his
wolfship and tried to scare him with the
whip, but could not do SO. Not having
gun along he drove to the residence of Mr..
Isaac johnson, procured one and return
ed and shot the wolf, which was very large
one, measuring five feet six inches from tip
to tip. - 20
Currie (Murray county Pioneer: Quite
sensation was created in the vicinity of the
Cresswell postoffice week or two since, by
Mrs. Joseph Hirt, who shot and killed two of
her husbands COWS. The particulars as
near as we can ascertain them, are as fol-
lows: A few months since Mr.. Hirt pur-
chased a span of horses, which, as he claims,
were warranted to him as sound, giving
chattel mortgage on the horses and two cows
to secure balance of the purchase money.
A few weeks ago the horses were returned as
they proved unsound, and the man who sold
the horses took the COWS and. tied them be-
hind his wagon when Mrs 81. took them
from him to the stable and shot them and
proceeded Immediately to make beef of them.
She has been arrested and is having her trial
at Worthington. s==s...-
