The gold excitement inGranite Falls
has increased rather than diminished
since oul last issue, and the 'unbeliev-
ers are becomming scarce. During the
past week quite a quantity of A No. l
gold has been washed out of the dirt
and sand taken from the hole on the
Digen lot. Outside parties have come
in and purchased the right to open
this lead to depth of sixteen feet
from the surface, paying two hundred
dollars for the privilege of prospecting
and when that depth is reached, if
they wish to continue to develope the
mine they are to pay $4,000 more. Ar.
rangements are also about completed
for opening the Smith lead though as
yet nothing has been definitely settled,
but the the probabilities are that both
mines will be thoroughly investigated
at once, and the question as to wether
there is gold in paying quantities in
this section settled for good We
anxiously await the verdict. Granite

GERS Of the law upon the tracks of
two three card monte men who were
working the trains of the Winona &
st. Peter railway east of Waseca.
The men recognized one of the officers
and as the train entered the
covered bridge near Rochester
they broke for the door AMI after
crossing the bridge jumped the train
and started on run across the coun.
try. The officers were equal to the
emergency and they also jumped off
the train, and gave the sharpers a
lively chase until they ran them down
and captured them. The men were
taken to Winona, but were released
on their promising never to work the
road again. The Republican says
that the main incentive to this com.
promise is said to be the fact that the
principal victim and witness against
them is a minister, who did not wish
to appear against them.

Spare the destroyer Of the Potato Bug.

A number of insects aid the farmer
aud gardner in keeping the greatest of
potato pest, the Colorado beetle, in
check. The Lady.bugs or 'Lady- birds"
in their larval state, are among the
most effective enemies Of the s'potato
bug, . doing valuable service in des-
troying both eggs and larvae, The
muture Lady-bugs are red, pink or
bright color, with small black dots, and
should be known and protected by all
farmers.
Some of the tiger beetles do a good
work against the potato beetle. The
Lydella Doryphora is an internal par.
asite, closely resembling common
fly, and is one of the most efficient de.
stroyers Of the Colorado beetle. The
female fly attaches single egg to the
potato larvae. The small footless
maggot soon matches and burrows into
the body of its victim, and finally de.

A species of mite (Uroyoda America.
MOI attacks the beetle and sometimes
so covers its host that no part Of the
beetle is visible. This external para
site is about the size Of a small pin
head, and is yellowish brown.
Several birds feed upon the potato
beetle among which is the much pros
ecuted crow. This sable bird will
even dig into the earth for the hiber-
mating individuals. The services OF
the common quail are moderated in
this respect. The red-breasted gross
beck has fondness for the potato
beetle, and does much good by feeding
upon it. Ducks and chickens feed up
on it. Ducks and chickens have
learned to eat the larvae, and some

"a wine with beautiful beads has

fellow we'll met and Of course counts
his friends by the score, though some

he was thus served, the doctor knew
the qualities Of the wine full well and
he lost no time in placing his precious
gift in Ibberson's drug store for safe
keeping while he proceeded on his
way to make a professional call on a
patient. The Sleepy Eye boys always
know good thing when they see it,
and they were not slow in seeing the
doctors wine. The bottles were
promptly emptied, reflled with la
vender-colored water and carefully
replaced where the doctor had left
them. The doctor soon re-appeared
at the store accompanied by an up.

his wine bottles and, holding it up to
the light. gave the contents hearty
