Exciting Chase.

Quite an exciting chase occurred on
Market street, Saturday afternoon, in
which a nj mber of citizens joined. A lad
was detected by Mr.. B. X. McMechen in
the act of filling his pocket with figs from
their stock and he gave chase to the boy,
captured him and turned him over to an
officer, who started to take him to the
lookup. They had not gone far, however,
before the boy made his escape, flying
down the street with the officer and a
crowd in hot pursuit. The youth was so
feet OF foot that he distanced all his pur-
suers, but as he was hustling around ut a
2:40 gait on Fourteenth street he took a
tumble and fell, striking his face, and the
officer captured him. Mr.. McMechen re-
fusing to appear against the lad, he
was given his freedom, and also a sound
thrashing by his father.

A FEW WORDS
Addressed to the Democratic Voters of the
First Congressional District.

Addressed to the Democratic Voters of the
First Congressional District.
10 The Editor of the Register:
Sir-Another week and the agony will
be over. | wish to say a few words to the
Democratic voters of the First District.
For the last four years this district has
been represented by a Republican in Con-
gress. Why is this? The district is Demo-
cratic by from GOO to 1000 without u
doubt, yet the Republicans have the Con-
gresham. Let me say to the Democrats
who are so liberal in their views that they
have no reward for their votes; no
thanks except ridicule; no honor
in the halls of Congress
from their choice, General Golf is not a
great leader. When on the floor of the Nat
iOnal House, he is scarcely known, surely
not heard with effect. He tires in Making
stump speeches and even that would fail
to amuSe if you travelled with him. Now
| wish to ask what claim he has to the
gratitude or support OF a Democrat? Has
he ever said a good word for you? Does
not his speeches ring with abuse
and falsehOod concerning You
and your party principles? Does he
not denOunce Democrats rs unfit to have
ANYTHING to do with the government OF
this country, and at the same time must
know that three or four hundred of those
same men hat he is ~slaudering must lick
the hand that smiteS them or he will be
defeated. Now, Democrats, stop and think.
Will V our self-respect allow yOu to vOtetor
q man who publicly denOunces you as
capable of all that is bad and mean, there,
by giving him 4 place Of honor,
and by your action endorsing
all base charges he makes against you.
viii you by voting for him defeat honest
John Brannon, a man who has always up
held the principles Of Democracy with
honor and ability; again | ask you, think
for q moment. By voting for GOtf you vir-
tually say that you believe all the base
ISLANDERS he has hurled from the stump
against Democracy. Can you do ii? |
think not. ID.

A Gods Revenge.

A mysterious haunted house is agi-
tating superstitious souls near Simla.
Down in a grove of deodar, sacred to
the local deity, there stands European
house built many years ago. Some
time ago one of the deodar trees fell to
the ground, and the wrath of the god
has been displayed in an unpleasantly
human manner. The occupants of the
house have been constantly disturbed
by showers of stones and missiles, and,
in spite of police cordons and other
precautions, the gods agent has not
been discovered. The disturbed tenant
of the house patrolled the grove with a
double-barreled shotgun, but the stones
still battered on his roof, and occasion
ally on his person. Some ten years ago
a superstitious native of Wales, unable
to bear the dspleasure of the god, man.
Tested in a similar manner, left the
premises.-N. Y. Post.

THE HESSIAN FLY.


How to Prevent Its Ravages-The Insect
in California.
The Hessan fly has made its appear
ance near Santa Rosa, Cal, and fields
are reported as badly damaged. Burn
ing is reported as having no effect on
the insects. This, however, is in
correct; if applied when the insects hi
bernate in dry stubble, fire will not
only destroy the insects, but the eggs
also. On growing grain, of course
burning is impracticable. Starving
them, as suggested, by cultivatine
grass, corn and vegetables, instead OF
grain. is also unavailing, since the
Hessian fly feeds on many species of
grass and the cereal grains belong to
the grass family. The proper way to
rid fields is to burn all harboring
places-dry grass, stubble, etc.-and to
cease the cultivation of winter wheat
for time, or else to keep it fed closely
by sheep in the fall and early spring.
Very late sowing of wheat checked the
ravages of the fly in cold climates, but
would probably be imperative in Cali
fornia.
In the North the progeny of the
autumn brood. deposited in September,
say, lay eggs in May. These develop
ing into the perfect insect make new
deposit The worm makes its way to
the base of the leaf of the first joint,
so that wheat in an affected field will
crinkle and fall badly. The last of
July or LIST of August the perfect in
sects again make their appearance. In
California it is probable the insects may
breed all winter, but they have numer-
GUS parasites and wet weather is de-
struction to them. A healthy soil rich
in all the ingredients of plant growth
will often carry the plant out of serious
danger, unless in seasons of eXtraor-
binary proliiicacy. 1t is difficult to
reach the insects with poison. since
they live by suction. Burning and
blowing up the stubble are good, local
ly, so is late sowing, or close grazing
of enly-sown wheat. The true rene
dy, however, is diversified farming and
enriching of the soil, for a rich soil will
often carry crop out of danger before
theinsects breed to such degree as to
seriously injure the crop. That is,
weak plants will succumb, while strong
plants will lose little vitality. Chicago

THE VERDICT.
How the Cause of Faithful Boarder's
Death Was Ascertained.

Death Was Ascertained.
At the time when Bismarck. Dakota,
was looming up as thriving town,
Mrs. Brown Davis was coming money
as clearinghouse keeper. The chief
attractions extended to the public by
her were numerous one cook and red
headed daughter, Katie, who had several
plausible claims to good looks. A num-
Der of people who had tried the house
said ''there was only one place they
wanted to go after a months boarding
with her, and that was a graveyard. "
Mrs. Davis, however, caught enough
strangers to keepup attractive appear
ances. In the height of prosperity a
railroad contractor became smitten
with Katies charms and fingered at
the house so long that he finally died
of indigestion. A post-mortem exami-
nation was held on the body and the
coroner's verdict was rendered as fol-
lows: 1--WE find the deceased came to
his death from an overdose of butter
administered at Mrs. Davis house, the
said butter being identified by the pres
ence of some of Katie Davis red hair
