declined TO issue the warrants, however,
we're that the case was proper one ior

The musical apparatus, producing the
peculiar prolonged trilling cry or noise
made by the male insect, is situated on
the under side Of the body, on the basal
ring OF the abdomen, and consists Of a
pair Of large plates, largely covering the
anterior part Of the body, which, acting
like drum at the will of the>ilsect, pro-
duce the peculiar tremulous sound we
hear so often during locust year. II Is a
kind Of popular belief in many localities
that the locust will sting and that the same
is fatal in many cases. The idea or belief
Is an erroneous one, as Is also the super
stition that the "W" on their wings is On
omen OF war. On two occasions OF their
appearance, 1872 and ls46, the "W" pre-
ssged war, while in 1858 they came in the
midst OF the rebellion. But '95 and 20
were peaceful eras, so the locusts cannot
be regarded as iniallble war prophets.

LOCUST YHAR.-Eyidence have already
accumulated sufficient to warrant US in ex-
pectipg re.appearance OF the seventeen
wear locusts in the course OF very few
DAYS. Farmers report finding them in
considerable numbers in many localities,
and appearing IS Just ready to emerge
from the ground. They appeared on May
q, 1916, and on May q, 1868. So their
arrival this year seems quite timely.
In the report OF the entomologtst oil the
Department Of Agriculture at Washington,
D. O., for the year 1879, We gather infor-
nation concerning this insect. The cicada
sepLsndeeim, or seventeen year locust, de-
riyes lis nams from the fact that 1t makes
its appearance In certain districts at stated
intervals Of seventeen years in immense
numbers, when the millions OF them
swarming on the trees almost deafen the
observer, with the peculiar trilling noise
made during their life above the ground.
They form On abundant food for swine,
fowls. &C., and II near rivers or lakes
even furnish food for the fishes in the
waters, The principal damage done by
locusts consists in the injury done to fruit
trees BY the females making their PECULIAR
longitudinal slits in tue terminal branches
OF the younger limbs oil the trees in which
to deposite their eggs.
The males only are musical, hence an
old cynical writer observes;
"Happy the eieadAs' llres,
Since they all have Tocrless wiyes.h

ga Little More Grape, Captain Bragg.

"Senex," in the New York Worlrs
"Notes and Queries" gives the follow
ing information as to the origin of this
oft-quoted phrase:
The newspapers of that time (and we
all know that newspapers are never at
faulty related that General Taylor re-
marked at the battle of Buena Vista:
IA little more grape, Captain Bragg"
The writer of this had it from General
Bragg himself, at comparatively short
time after the battle, that the express
sion was never used. As the real Incl
dent may be of some interest at this
late day, 1 give it as General Bragg re-
lated it.
In 1848, being q student at law in
Mobile, Ala, I was at bar dinner,
which General (then Captain) Bragg
attended as guest. In the course Of
the evening q gentleman sitting near
the officer remarked, pleasantly. while
filling the latter's glass with wine: "A
little more grape, Captain Bragg"
Bragg smiled and bowed, and then said:
cit may surprise you to know that that
expression was never used" We were
surprised, for all the papers throughout
the country were proclaiming it, and
we asked an explanation. He proceeded
to relate the incidents of the battle.
"At this moment" he continued, 81
observed that the enemy were prepar-
ing to charge the battery in such over
whelming numbers that I feared it
would be captured, and so ordered it
withdrawn. While retreating I saw
Lieutenant Thomas, who commanded a
section. suddenly unlimber his two
guns and prepare for action. On my
asking him the purpose he replied:
For Gods sake, Captain, get the bat
terry into play and save the day. The
advantage of the position struck me at
once, and we rapidly numbered. By
this time the Mexicans were advancing,
and we opened fire at very short range.
The effect of the discharge was muir
derous. and the enemy fell back shat
tered and broken. At this moment,
when the report had hardly died away,
and the smoke still fingered about the
muzzles of the guns, General Taylor
came galloping down. followed by his
staff. He wore an old straw hat, very
much the worse for wear. This, as he
rushed past, he pulled of and swung
around his head, while he yelled out to
me: That's right: give 'em hi, Cap
tain Bragg' The newspapers have
given polish to the expression, but at
the expense of its force
Such is the story that I heard Cap
tain Bragg himself relate. II the Cen
erals language is somewhat too strong
for the pious1y inclined, 1 am sorry, but
cannot help it; the truth of history
must be indicated, and II tell the
story as twas told to me-" Besides,
some allowance should be made for the
surroundings of battle.
The Lieutenant Thomas alluded to
was afterward General Thomas, of
Nashville celebrity, who distinguished
himself so greatly in our own little diff
Guilty. "The glory of the day." said
Bragg, "was undoubtedly largely due
to Thomas, and vet he was not even
mentioned in the dispatches"

The LOST Tribe.

It is now settled beyond donbt
that tue Sheepeatel tribe Of Indians Is
numbered among the lost ones. For
several years past they have been a
terror to the miners and prospectors
in Northwestern idaho. Repeated
expeditions went out against them
but they could never be found at home.
They seemed to know just when they
we're waited. Uncle Sam seat re-
pcated requests 10 them to come IN
and join church, go % school and be
somebody. The Sheepeaters conidrt
see it. They had never looked upon
school or church, but had an idea
they were prisons of some kind, and
they preferred their cave houses, Wild
mutton and dried salmon to anything
the Great Father could give them
THIS spring the Government became
alarmed for the safety Of the Sheep
eaters and sent cut detachment Of
