BY the Digger Indians of California and
tne plains, grasshoppers are caui ht In great
numbers. When the insect attains It's best
condition the Indians select some favorable
locality and dig several little pits, IN shape
somewhat like inverted tunnels, the aper-
lure being narrower at the surface than at
the base, the object being to prevent the in
sect which chances to tumble In from hop
ping out again The pits being ready, an
immense circle is formed, the surrounding
grass is set on fire, and the Indian men,
women and children station themselves at
proper intervals around the fiery belt, keep
Ing up continual ring Of flame, until the
luckless grasshoppers are corralled In the
pits or roasted at the brink. They are eaten,
after beng mixed with pounded acorns, and
constitute one of the national dishes. Grass
hoppers are sometimes gathered into sacks,
saturated with salt and placed In a heated
trench, covered with hot stones for fifteen
minutes, and are then eaten as shrimps, or
they are ground and are put into soup or
mush. This tribe also feeds on ants, catch
ing them by spreading dampened skin or
fresh peeled bark over their hills, which i'm
mediately attracts the inhabitants to It's sur
face. When filed the cover is carefully re-
moved and the a. herring insects shaken into
light sack, where they are confined until
dead, and are then thoroughly sun-dried
Al d laid away. Bushels are thus gathered
annually, and are not more offensive than
snakes, lizards and crickets, which the
tribe also eat, Grasshoppers are pounded
with service, hawthorne or other berries.
The mixture is made into small cakes,
pressed hard and dried in the sun for future
use .l. ..

"LooK OUT FOR THE ENGINE"

am locomotive engineer and have been for
twent9 years, and am now running on the
Maine Central Railroad. Life on an engine,
as all engineers know, Is very trying to the
health and strength. The continual jar Of the
engine, and strain on our long trips all tend to
weaken the kidneys and urinary organs. In ad-
dtion tn this, ten years age, 1 met with severe
accident, and was taken from under my en-
gine with severe internal nju les, which gave
me great pain. l was laid up fer six months,
and suffered more than / can describe, and
more thanI wish to suffer again. 1 resumed
work. but my kidneys Degan to desturb me, and
my nervous system seemed to be out of order
l could not sleep, as my water demanded such
constant attention that was kept awake a
great part Of the night; to urinate caused severe
pains. l employed the best medical skill In
Portland and elsewhere but continued to grow
worse
l was persuaded to try Hunts Remedy as 1
found that many of my friends In Portland had
used 1t with great success, yet l had no faith
that 1t would reach my case. However, l sent
for a half-dozen bottles at one of the drug stores
IN Portland. and from the use of the first bottle
found great relief. My water was much
better and the pain in the back and limbs
greatly relieved ! continued its use until l
had used ten bottles in all, and 1t has been to
me wonderful blessing. and 1 have deemed
1t duty and privilege to recommend 1t to those
troubled 10 similar manner; and you may
publish this for the benef of our railroad men
and the public in general, as it has completely
cured me.

A HOUSE OF CORRECTION
and DeteBIion an AbAsIufe Necessity
for the swarmfDg Street Arabs

A house Of correction and detention for
juvenile offenders is sadly needed here.
There are great many yoUrg lads, white as
well az black, given 10 petty pilfering and 10
depreciation OF an annoying character, who,
as the law now stand, cannot b adequately
punished. There is no place ia the Jail Tor
them, and il there was 1t would not do 10
place them near the Influence Of old and
hardened criminals. To c)nfne them in the
ststioDhouse would be equally as democrat
izing, and they could not De put to work on
the chsin-gapg. The number OF these young
dspreGators is increasing every day, and the
more vicious and hardened OF them are ex-
tending their operations in gangs Of four or
more. With house of detention
and correction ali of these could
easily lie broken up. The boys could
b. brought under Wholesome disciplinary
control and be trained into habits OF obedi-
ence and industry As the twig is rent the
tree is inclned. The boy is father OF the
man. The Taxing District government has,
OF course, 40 9oney to set up such an eatab-
meut as we suggest, but perhaps there are
& few good citizens who, seeing the need Tor
promptly and efficiently reforming the bad
boys, would subscribe a sum sufficient to en-
able President MADDEN to build home for
the waits and vsgabouds who defy parental
control and are anxious to play the role OF
the "kids" who usually end their career on
the gsllows. A few thousand dollars could
not be expended 10 better purpose, and the
sooner the better.
