ENTE TAINMENT OF VISITING ODD FELLOWS.
Gen. San o0rn, chief marshal of the recep-
ton ceremonies on Thursday next, has received
letters from several lodges of Odd Fellows at
Rochester, Chaska. and elsewhere, stating that
they were coming to the city on that occasion
in full force, to join in the parade.
The members in this city, in view of these
circumstances, have commenced to bestir them
tanning their brethren One pl.n proposed, is
to throw open the three Odd Fellows halls in
the city, and collect all the spare beds and bed
ding possible, SO as to make sleeping rooms
which will accommodate 100 or 200.
Probably cot beds enough or even
hrst-class mattresses cannot now be obtained
but ticks filled with straw will answer on a
pinch, and will be better than nothing. OF
course any Odd Fellow in the city will take to
his house and accommodate there as many as
he can, but there will probably be still many
who cannot be thus disposed of. During ordi-
nary times over 1000 could find accom- moda-
tons at our hotels, but these will all be taxed
to take in the great crowds who will be here on
Wednesday and Thursday, and the members
here are right i'll looking to the comfort of
their brethren. No one should be allowed to
go bedless and mealless on that occasion. 1t
will be a reproach boosted hospitality
if single case of this kind occurs.
general meeting of Odd Fellows will be
held at their hall on Mondoy evening to make
full arrangements.

excellent In these respects. They may

there is little TO do In the fields. They

strawberries. They are not AZ perishH

grape vines, however, require little care,

%FOraging Ants.

The ioraging ants of the genus ecston
are another remarkable group, especially
abundant in the equatorial forests OF
America They are true hunters, and
seem to be continually roaming about
tho forests in great bands, in search OF
insect prey. They especially devour
maggots, caterpil ars, white ants, cock
reaches and other soft insects; and their
bands are always accompanied by hocks
of insectiverous birds, who prey upon
the winged insects that are continually
trying to escape from the ants. They
even attack wasp nests, which they cut
to pieces and then drag out the larya.
They bite and sting severely, and the
traveller who accidentally steps into a
horde of them will soon be overrun, and
must make his escape as quickly as pos
sible. They do not confine themselves
to the ground, but swarm up bushes and
low trees, hunting every branch, and
clearing them of all insect lite. Some.
times a band will enter a house, like the
driver ants in Africa, and clear it of
cockroaches, spiders, centipedes and 9th
er insects. They seem to have no per-
mauent abode, and to be evsr wandering
about in search of prey, but they make
Temporary hsbitatiOns in hollow trees or

Chemical Triumphs.

Modern chemists are very expert in
resolving compound bodies into their
simple elements, but the opposite process
of building up bodies from their ele.
mentary constituents, Is one of extreme
difficulty. In 1868, however, two Ger.
man chemists, Professors Graebe and
Liebermann, succeeded in preparing
from the hydrocarbon anthracene, man
ufactured from coal tar, the brilliant
dye-stufE hitherto won from madden.
This was the first instance in which the
chemist had succeeded in artificially
preparing colors occurring in the vege-
table kingdom, and although the manu-

A. Baeyer, the genial successor to the

noting the rapid advancement OF women
in business pursuits, tells the following
anecdote. II Is a little tough on the

The other day a very nice looking
young woman called at the house of a
friend 10 execute some orders in regard
10 the covering of furniture and the
putting up of summer window curtains.
Her appearance was 10 thoroughly good
and fitted TO her work that my friend
could hardly believe she was the person,
1t expressed, as she phrased 1t, too much
culture" She proved however, 10 be

holstlery department Of one of our most
famous furniture and decorating houser,
and lightly climbed a step ladder and
proceeded in a womanlike way 10 get on
the outside of a window in the further
ance of the object she had TO accomplish.
My friend, who is a lady of observation
and intelligence, became very much in.
terested in her, and noticing a plain gold
ring On her finger, ASKED II she were
married.
"No, thank GodW was the reply.
"Why are you thankful that you are
not married2" asked Mrs II. O

married." shs said, land ] have to work,
not only TO support myself and my
