A Novel slunting Scene.

Passengers in Erie county, n. Y,
passing over the great Chester onion
meadows, at night, between the station
and Chester, are just now attracted by
myriads of lights that CLEAN in all di-
rections over the meadows. There are
hundreds of them. They are lanterns
and torches in the bands of men, ON
en-, and children. who are vitality inter-
ested in the growth Of the onion crop on
the meadows, and who a'e carefully
seeking what is known as the "onion
grub" This is worm which made its
first appearance on the meadows last
year, with disastrous results to the
crop. 1t has appeared in increased
numbers this year, and the farmers
have as yet found no means of destroy
ing it except by hunting it at night,
during which time it does its feeding,
remaining hidden somewhere during
he day. So destructive is the work OF
this entirely new pest that acres upon
acres of onions have been ploughed up
and replaced with other crops. Many
bushels of the grubs are collected every
night and burned. As the onion crop
of the Chester meadows amounts to
something like $500, 900 4 year, the i'm
portance of successfully combating the
grub is apparent. The insect touches
nothing but onion plants.

Two Meteor Stories.

The Utica On. " Herald says that a
huge aerolite has fallen into Spring
Pond, near st. Regis Falls, and nearly
filled the pond. The body of water us
ually contained in the pond was nearly
all spattered out, and the supposed
smoke seen was steam, generated by the
water running back around the heated
mass. Mud was thrown into the tree
tops, and trout were scattered promls-
cuously around the pond, literally COW
ering the banks. The news soon be-
came circulated through the neighbor-
hood, and scores of men and boys were
seen all day engaged in picking the fish
up, and bushels Of them were drawn
away. The fish nearest the pond that
Hoped back into the still boiling water
were completely cooked. This huge
mass seems to be mineral, but has not
cooled off enough yet 10 admit of an eX-
animation.
A private letter published III the Kan
sas City Times tells of a party OF hun
tiers and biologists who were camped in
southwestern Kansas one night when a
meteor fell near them. In the morning
they found a huge mass buried in the
ground and still quite warm. They
managed to break off a chunk of about
a pound and II half weight, carried it
to Denver and had it assayed. IL pan
ned outabout 20 per cent. of gold, "a per
cent. of iron, and IA per cent. nickel,
with copper and other metals. The
party are going back with dynamite
and tools to get the rest of the meteor,
which they calculate weighs five tons.
If the assay holds out they'll get ton
of gold.

What a Strike Cost.

Figures showing the cost of the strike
OH the Third Avenue street car line In
New York are interesting. The losses
of the men, the companies and others
combined foots up. about Il million dol
lars. During the general tie-ups $40
men were out. When the strike began
nine weeks ago there were employed
by the Third Avenue Company 1850
men. This included the men of the ca
BILE road on Tenth avenue, the line on
One Hundred and Twcnty-tifth street
and the Grand Central Depot line. 1t
is said to be safe estimate to average
the earnings Of these men at 81 a day.
Thus their net loss in wages each day
of the strike has been So 300, or $23, 100
each week. They have now been out
nine weeks. Thus their total loss in
wages up to date is 1907 800.
Another element Of loss to the work
ing classes in connection with these two
tie-ups was the cost to employees, partic-
ularly those living in Brooklyn, who
were kept from their work from one to
several hours because of the lack Of
travelling facilities. TO piece-workers
this was a costly delay, and the loss in
volved to the wage-workers must Lave
been at least $4,000 for the two days.
An item of cost because of the strike is
also found in the loss to the tradespeo-
pie because of the economy that has be-
come necessary. This is at least 10 per
cent. of the amount of wages LOST TO
the Third avenue men, or $4,000. The
Third Avenue Company estimate their
total loss because of the strike at over
5000 900. What the two days tie-up
cost the other roads from the cessation
of traffic, deducting the money hey
saved by the men being absent, Is care
fully estimated at 100000.

VIZ. CIeyeInnd,s first reception.


The reception of President and Mrs.
Cleveland at the White House Tuesday
night was the most brilliant social event
of this administration. The state apart.
ments were tastefully and appropriately
decorated for the occasion, and the
Marine Band was present as usual. AT
nine O'Clock the presidential party de-
scended the private stairway in the fol-
lowing order: The President escorting
his wife, Secretary and Mrs. Endicott,
Secretary and Mrs. Whitney, Postmas-
ter General and Mrs. Villas. They en-
tered the Blue Parlor, where the Pres
ident formally presented his wife to the
members of the diplomatic corps and
Prince Augusta Leopoldo, of Brazil.
Mrs. Cleveland wore her wedding dress,
which has been so often described. 1t
was altered for the occasion, and instead
of being high in the neck, it was "V'
shaped, front and back, exposing her
beautiful neck and arms. She wore for
the first time the famous diamond neck
lace wedding present from her husband
and a large corsage bouquet of white ro-
ses, and WAS pronounced the most oeau-
tiful woman who has ever presided over
the White House. Mrs. Cleveland stood
at her husbands right hand and receiV-
ed her guests with charming ease ana
grace, and Immediately scored Il grand
social success.
The decorations were OH the same
grand scale as at the Pre- Sident's we'd
ding, with the exception that there were
more tropical plants and ferns and less
flowers. The walls of the East Room
were hidden by plants and garlands OF
smlax, and evergrecns were festooned
from the chandeliers and c0rnices. The
mantles were banked with rare eXotics
and the window recesses filled with
palms. The decorations OF the other
parlors were of similar description.
The scene when the reception was at its
height, with the rich toilettes OF the Ia
dies, the splendor of the costumes worn
by some of the diplomats and the bright
uniforms Of the officers, was most brill
liant.
The reception was one of the largest
ever given at the White House, there
being not less than two thousand guests
present. The reception closed about
quarter before eleven, and the Presl-
dent ard Mrs. Cleveland, after prom
enade through the various rooms, retlr-
ed, accompanied by the Cabinet officers
and their wives, to partake of a COLA
ton spread in enc of the private apart
ments IF thp mansion.
