A Squirrel Circus.

The men who drive the watering
carts and who fill them at the hydrant
about the middle of Townsend street,
Roxbury, report that yesterday morn
ing about five o'clock they witnessed q
sight that the ordinary Bostonian, with
his sleepy head, seldom sees. When
they reached the spot referred to, the
oak forest was all alive with gray
squirrels. There were from one to two
hundred gathered together. Every
tree had half-a-dozen in its upper
branches. They were jumping from
tree to tree, fourishing their bushy
tails, running up and down the trunks,
scampering over the ground, and APP
parently trying to see who could go
through the largest number of squirrel
gymnastics in a given space of time.
Gray squirrels are always to be seen in
that neighborhood, and anjoy compar-
alive immunity from cats and shotguns,
but their playful pranks and mirthful
exercises yesterday morning indicate
either that they were holding a Sunday
service at sunrise, or that a convention
of squirrels had gathered at an hour
when cats and dogs and men have
hardly yet gone out to their daily dis
turbance of the world.-Bostom Herald.

Some Of the Literature Appertaining e
This Interesting Insect.
Since the invasion of Northern Cali-
fornia by the grasshoppers, there has
been a marked revival in the literature
appertaining to this interesting insect.
81 remember in H." said a member
of the Grain Exchange yesterday, "I
was coming across the plains. Well.
sir, l was seated in a car reading q
newspaper about noon, when suddenly
it grew dark, and I thought sure a ter
trible storm was on us. 1t was a cloud
of grasshoppers; so thick that when
they settled on the car-track they
stopped the train. There was a good
feed where we were just then, and it
brought the 'hoppers to a halt. We
were blocked for t%wenty-four hours,
until a snow-plow was telegraphed for,
and, when it cut the way for us, it left
a bank of 'hoppers on each side higher
than the smokestack of the locomo-
tive"
"That was pretty bad," said another
broker, ''but | have seen worse. We
were camped one summer in Kansas.
making a survey for a new town. The
i'hoppers struck us at night, and in the
morning we thought the end
of the world had come. They
were piled, sir, twenty feet
deep over the encampment, and
we were nine hours tunneling out Of
them. If we did not happen to have
a few giant-powder cartridges to blast
out air holes we should have been suf-
located before we could have struck q
shovel into the mass"
Didn't you hive any of emp" in
,quired a warehouseman, who had seen
a good deal of Western life.
"What do you mean?" asked the
broker.
"Just this: 1 was caught IN the same
fix you have told about once in Kan
sas. l was in charge of a mule team
hauling supplies to a railroad camp.
Among other things we had several
thousand yards of canvas for tents for
the men. As soon as the grasshoppers
struck us L put my gang to work, and
in a short time we had a canvas-sack
made, balloon fashion, only bigger
than any balloon you ever saw. Well,
sir, we filled it chock full of 'hoppers-
live 'hoppers-and hitched it on to the
wagon, and when the swarm started
to go II Gagged 'hoppers went with
them"
"And took off your balloon?"
"No, stree; they hauled our wagon
for over seventy-eight miles, when
they broke down and we bagged a new
lot. 1t beat mule power all hollow.
Then it has occurred to me"-But
his audience had gone, and the West
ern man growing, Il suppose these
darned fools think I'm green" walked
off to find a more credulous and atten-
tive auditory.-Chicago Tribune.
