BuGs AND WORMS ON THE WAR PATH IN
VARIOUS SECTIONS OF THE COUNTRY.

An Exchange says there come reports
of an invasion by swarms of bugs and
worms. The sparrow. either in spite or
panic, has left the caterpillar to increase
and multiply, and the gardens in the city
and suburbs are threatened with a cater
pillar plague OF no small magnitude. In
fact. ALI sorts of worms seem to be great
ly increasing in numbers. There is a
mystery about the appearance OF insects
that entomologists have not been able to
explain. Certain variety Of plants are at
tackled one season and nearly destroyed,
while for two or three seasons following
the same plants will escape.
In New Jersey the potato bugs and the
rose bugs have already done much dam
age. The vineyards in the neighborhood
of Glassboro are said TO be especially en-
dangered, and the left wing of the rose
bug army is reported in considerable force
at Vineland. The rose bug is very de-
structive in its work. II attacks the leaf
on the under side. and is consequently
protected from the usual liquid appica-
tions to destroy insects. In some gardens
nearly every leaf is skeletonized. and vines
and bushes that few weeks ago presented
luxuriant appearance are now almost
as bare as in midwinter

him in which the seal of secrecy was broken are
OF very dramatic character. A lady whose

ical adviser, DR.. Delpech, one Of the most dis

OF Medicine, cOnfded her suspicious to him, and
asked If they were we'll founded. The doctor
fenced with the question as we'll as he could,
and tried to avoid givinga direct answer. The
lady insisted. II do not address you as pro-
fessional man" she said, .'but ask you, as the
father of a family, would you give your daugh-
ter to this young MANI" Overcome by this ap-
peal the doctor gave reluctant answer In the
negative, and the marriage was broken off.
Some days afterward the carriage in which the
doctor used to drive to his class came to stand
before the door Of the medical school. but

who were both found lying dead on the road at
some distance, each with bullet logged in vi

blown his brains out was found lying in a room
