The CaterDillars.

REED SHOOT writes in this sensible
fashion to the Provo Enquirer:
None of us can forget the horrible sight
and great loss Of last summer. and, am
sure, none want to witness it again this
summer; refer to those awful caterpil-
lars that destroyed most of our fruit crop
and made our garden towns look as
though fall had visited us in midsummer
Now the only way for us to prevent them
from being as bad, if not worse than last
summer, is for all of us to unite in trim
ming all of our trees, both shade and
orchard, and be sure to burn the trim
mings; for on them the chrysalis rings
are laid and it will not be more than
three or four weeks until they begin to
develop into caterpillars ifnot destroye d
| have noticed on my lot that the Chrv-
sails are not only laid on the small twigs
OF the trees but on the currant bushes and
all small shrubs. There is no use for anv
one or any half dozen parties irving
to eXterminate them from their orchards,
as they travel from place to place at the
rate OF about three feet per minute; SO
you see they can travel block or so in a
very short time. What it wants is
united effort on the part of every person,
both old and young. Parents claim there
is nothing to do for their boys. Now BOYS
can trim these twigs off from trees and
shrubs as well as a man; for you must
understand the chrysalis is not laid
around the large limb, but only on the
small twigs, and a boy can trim them off
with good pocket-knife or pruning knife.
1t would pay parents to offer small re-
ward for each dozen twigs with the chry-
sails on, and thereby create an interest in
their children to look close after them.
for every one missed means at least 200
Also take the liberty to sug-
gest to our City Fathers and ask them if
it would not be good policy to issue an
order, and make it compulsory, for each
and every owner to trim or have trimmed
Ill his shade and orchard trees and to
burn the same at time of trimming, or
would it be asking too much for the Coun-
NJ to offer small bounty for each 100 |
wigs with the chrysalis on.

ANNULAR ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.

On the 10th Of March will occur an an
nular eclipse. OF the sun visible in the
United States and British America. 1t S
the return OF the annular eclipse Oh
February u, 1881. In 1881 the central
line passed over Texas in a northeasterly
direction, being last visible on this CONT
nent IN parts OF Virginia and North arc
lima. AT this return the path will be
much further north. The eclipse will be
annular over Il line from Cape AIendocino
California, in latitude 40 degrees to
Greenland in latitude II degrees. 1t is
estimated that the eclipse will be annular
over path about seventy miles wide.
The only towns of consequence in the
United states within this belt are Eureka,
California, and Bozeman, Montana AT
st. Paul the eclipse Will obscure five
siXths OF the sun, but will not be annular.
AT Chicago seven-tenths of the sun will
be hidden. From New York the obscura-
ton Will be somewhat less, but sufficient
to render the eclipse a most interesting
event.
The eclipse will be annular because
the cone or the moons shadow does not
reach the earth. 1t will appear annular
at these places nearly in the line of the
point OF the cone. In an annular eclipse
4 ring OF sunlight surrounds the moons
shadow, the moon being at such dis
lance that it does not cover the whole OF
the suns disc. Until recent years an
nular echpses have been neglected by
astronomers; but during the last one
some very Important observations were
made by the french astronomers, and it
is probable that some effort will be made
TO observe the coming eclipse. At all
events, the partial phase which will be
visible here viii be carefully observed il
the weather permits. The time of It's oc-
currence Is very favorable for careful OBJ
servatIon.
In Rochester the eclipse will begin at
about ii 80 IN the morning, local time,
and end at 2:50 in the afternoon. IL
would be well for those possessing tele-
scopes IN this city to confer together for
the purpose OF preparing for systematic
observations. Efforts will be made to
photograph the eclipse during its entire
progress, II the sun is not wholly obscured
by clouds. The event may furnish an
opportunity to determine whether the
moon has anything like an atmosphere
As the sun Is likely to show number OF
spots OF considerable extent upon the
date OF the eclipse, it will be observed
with added interest. Telescopists who
have not shade glasses for solar observa-
ton will find it very interesting to throw
the suns image upon a white screen a
little removed from the eye-piece of the
telescope. Democrat.

A Hint for Husbands.

Mr.. w. is quite an elderly, wealthy
gentleman, having for his second wife
0 lady many years his Junior, and much
petted. Any expressed wish of hers he
has at once gratifed, if money could be
the medium. One evening she remark
ed in her charming way. Il saw to-day
at - store, a lovely camel's hair
shawl that l want ever so much.
Would you bring home tomorrow a
check? It's only 81, 800" Eyes, dear"
he replied, II will bring the money"
and the next evening, with the assis-
lance of his porter, he did bring home
and placed on the parlOr table fifteen
hundred silver dollars. At the sight OF
this pile of metal, weighing nearly a
hundred pounds, the wife exclaimed,
what are you going to do with all
that money?' "Why! love, it's the
money you wanted for the new shawl"
"Good gracious! Does it take all that
to make 81, 500? Whyl 1 had no idea it
meant so much. l will do without the
shawl, and will put it all in the savings
bank, if you will let me-" and she did
so. and has since added several sums to
the deposit. Mr.. w. afirms on his
honor that since that event she has not
asked for quarter part so much money
as before the incident. The above is

THE RETURN OF THE WASHINGTON LIGHT I'M.
FANTRY-AN ENTHUSIASTIC RECEPTION
The nefghborhOOd OF the Baltimore and Po-
tomac depot and the sidewalks along Pennsyl-
vania avenue all the way from the depot to the
armory on 18th street were thronged with peo-
pie last night when the Washington Light In
fantry Corps arrived in the city upon their re-
turn from Cape May. The train arrived
promptly at o'clock, having made q remarks
bly, fast trip from Philadelphia The members
OF the corps filed quickly out of the cars and .
line was formed on the depot platform. The
soldier boys were sunburned, grimy with
travel and rather mOist-looking from
pcrSpiratton. They looked and bore them
selves like battle-stained veterans. In
in the muzzles of the gun was a FAM which
suggested some of the unpleasant features of
soldering under an August sun. Meanwhile
the crowds of people outside were cheering and
impatient ones had begun to let off Roman
candles. Finally the drum tapped aud the
corps marched quickly out Of the depot into
Pennsylvania avenue. To the music of bugle
fife and drum they made a rapid march to the
armory. All along the route the scenes with
which Washington Is becoming familiar were
enacted. Red lights and fireworks of all de-
scription were set of, illuminating the route
with MONDAY brilliancy. At the armory
large number of the friends OF
the CORPS including many matrons and
maidens were assembled. Before ranks were
broken Colonel Moore made a brief speech,
After ranks were broken guns were placed in
racks and knapsacks were unsung. Then each
perspiring hero was captured by two or more
fair ones and hurried home. In some cases
when the soldier boys met the fair ones who
had come for him there was loud smack or
The cause of this phenomenon is being investi-
gated.
