The Origin of Mosquitoes.

The Indians have very satisfactory &C.
count OF the origin of the Montezuma
mosquitoes. The legend runs thus There
we're in times of old, many moons ago, two
huge feathered monsters permitted by the
Manitou to descend from the sky and
alight on the banks of the Seneca river
Their form was exactly that of the mos
quito. They were so large that they few
to the earth. Standing one on either bank
they guarded the river, and stretching
their long necks into the canoes of the In
dians as they attempted to paddle along
the stream, gobbled them up as the stork
king in the fable gobbled up the frogs
The destruction Of life was SO great that
not an Indian could pass without being
devoured in the attempt. 1t was long be-
fore the monsters could be exterminated
and then only BY the combined efforts OF
aii She warriors of the CayVu1gga and Qnen--
daga nations. The battle was terrible,
but the warriors finally triumphed. and
the mammoth mosquitoes were slain and
left unburied. For this neglect the In
dams had to pay dearly. The carcasses
decomposed, and the PARTICLES, v1vifed
by the sun, flew off in clouds of mosqui
toes, which have filed the country even
since.

The Sting of the Bee.

If we press the abdomen Of a bee or
wasp SO as to cause the sting to protrude
we should naturally think that the sharp,
dark-colored instrument was the sting it
SELF This, however, is not the case. The
real sting is very slender instrument,
nearly transparent, keenly pointed, and
armed on one edge with a row of barbs.-
So exactly does the sting resemble the
many barbed arrows of certain savage
tribes that, if the sayages has possessed
micros c0pes. we should certainly have
thought that he bothered the idea of the
barb from the insect. What we see with
the unaided eye is simply the sheath of the
sting. Many savages poison their spears
and arrows, and here also they have been
anticipated by the insect. But the sting
is infinitivelY superior to the arrow poison
No poison that has yet been made, not
even the terrible wourali. or curare, as it
is sometimes called, can retain it's strength
after long exposure to the air. The upas
poison of Borneo, for example, loses its
potency in two or three hours. But the
venom of the sting is never exposed to the
air at all. It is secreted by two long,
thread-ljke glands, not nearly so thick as
human hair, and is then received into a
little bag at the base of the sting. When
the insect uses its weapon it contracts the
abdomen. thereby forcing the sting out
and COMPRISING the venom bag. By the
foroo of ho Of NH ioI,
into the foe, its base is pressed against the
venom-bag and small amont of poison
driven into the wound. AS rule, if the
bee or wasp be allowed to remain quiet it
will withdraw its sting, but as the pain
causes sudden jerk, the barbed weapon
cannot be withdrawn, and the whole appa-
Tatus of sting, poison-bag and gland is
torn out of the insect thereby causing its
death. Good Words.

or figures, but he used some word illustra-
tions and what he did say was said III Il
very agreeable and effective manner. He
argued that while the Republican party
in Vermont declared in favor of temper
ance, the party at large was opposed to
prohibition. state laws could repreSS but
never stamp out the traffic in liquors, he
cause there were so many ways in which
the State laws could be eyaded through
the laws of the national government.
Liquors destined for another State could
not be prevented from passing through u
prohibition State, and If there were navl-
gable waters under the control of the
United States within or adjoining the
State the liquor traffic could be carried on
by that means in spite OF state laws.
Hence national prohibition was the goal
sought
The speaker arraigned the Republican
party in Vermont for not stamping out
the traffic in this State. He said that al
though the party had been in power here
for about 30 years the platform adopted
by their last state convention was their
condemnation for it showed that they
had allowed Democratic saloon Keepers to
institute and carry on their nefarIOuS
business to an extent which rendered
them unfit to hold Office. The Republi-
cans had power in this State if they so
desired to crush ont the liquor traffic and
he maintained that it was Inconsistent
with their declarations for them not to
use that power. The speech commanded
the closest attention throughout and was
frequently applauded.
At the conclusion of Mr. Flnch's re-
marks the convention adjourned.

An Address Upon the Claims of the Pro
hibition Party by Hon. John ID. Finch.

An Address Upon the Claims of the Pro-
hibition Party by Hon. John Is. Finch.
Last evening Hon. John b. Finch of
Evanston, Ill addressed a small audience
in the City Hail. The speakers theme
and eloquent delivery were worthy of a
crowded house. He began by exposing
the autagonism of both political parties to
prohibition, and said that in 1854 the pro
hibitlonsts asked each of the great fac
tions to adopt the platform that all ques-
tions of fundamental Importance to the
people should he submitted to popular
vote, The Republican party sneered at
us, and the Democratic party repudated
us. The leaders of both parties know the
power of the liquor organization as a con
trOller of votes are acquainted with the
remOrseleSsness of its use, and fear 1t.
To show the righteousness of party aiiilia-
ton the speaker instanced the State cam
palgE in Kansas tour years ago. The Re
publlCanS nominated for governor man
who was a Union soldier, an upright,
Christian man the Democrats put in OPP
position a man who had always opposed
progress in the State, a rebel during the
war, and liquor man. One said il elect
ed he would protect the homes against
the grOg shops. The other said If he be-
came governor he would pardon every
liquor seller convicted under his admins
tration. AT the polls the Union man went
down, and the other man went up. And
this in "a Republican State. In the event
of an issue between liquor and no liquor,
the whiskey Republicans will desert the
party in every instance as they did i'll
this.
No man, Mr. Finch said, who
was right on this question
could afford to continue in allie
glance to either of the two great par
ties who hoodwinked at the liquor power,
and in fact were compelled to, in order To
get votes and avoid political death. 1t is
foolish to characterize the Republican
party as the one of temperance, for after
you have crossed Mason's and DiXDn's
line the Democratic party is the espouser
of the temperance cause, and Mr.. Finch
cited convincing figures in proof of his
statement Wisconsin, strongly Republi-
can, is also strong whiskey state.
Georgia, strongly Democratic, has @S pro
hibition counties out Of llG. a good mid
die ground which IA Republican or Demo
crAt could assume without being called a
traitor to his party is found in prohibit
tiun, and sooner or later this third party
would be established, for ii even now held
the balance of power. The speaker pre-
dicted that this time would arrive within
Il decade.
