The Prairie Shrimp.

The frasshopper plague in Minnesota
has assumed so serious character that
the farmers around St. Paul have dccd-
ed to pay 81 bushel for the insects in
order to stimulate the efforts for their
destruction. In Venezuela recently a
prize of $1,000 was Offered to ANYBODY
who would invent means Of proitab!y
converting locusts into gre ~ or any
other useful article. We canlot claim
originality for the idea, but why not
adopt the Indian system! The aborigin-
al farmers on the plains, we have been
told heretofore, do not regard the grass
hopper as an unqualified evil. When
their wheat crops grow undisturbed by
these insects, the Indians cat the wheat
after 1T has been prepared in the usual
way. When the grasshoppers come and
eat the wheat, however, the Indians cat
the grasshoppers. In this way they aye
always sure of good crop, of one kind
or the other, and are happy in any event.
There Is authority for the statement that
fried grasshoppers are not unpalatablc,
the testimony Of white men who have
dined on them being that they have a
rich, nutty TASTE" not unlike peanuts.
or something of that sort, and that the
most squeamish person would en-
Joy them if they were served up in BAT
ter or under some other name. We do
not care to press the subject too far,
but why not give the frisky visitors Il
chance to redeem their reputation by
transferring them from the field to tho
kitchen, from the furrow to the frying.
pan! The Indian holds the oyster and
shrimp in scorn, and his, we know is a
blind and unreasonable prejudice. Why
should We not learn from him at the
same time that we teach him to esteem
our deIcacies! Let our friends in Min
nesota. then, name the grasshoppcr tie

him in and make the most OF him.

How Storms Are Made.

Our earth only receives a small frac-
tional part of the suns heat; but, what
ever that mny be in the year, more or
iess than the average, the entire surface
of our earth must feel and be subject to
the effects, And one thing is certain
namely, that year or series of years, of
excessive sunlight will inevitably lie year
and seasons ctexcessive atmospheric dis
turbsnces, because increase of heat will
produce excess of evaporation, excessive
precipitation; and, during prevalence
of this excess Of sun.heat, there must be
over limited areas violent storms both
summer and winter.
Whom very large areas Of the atmo-
sphere have been, by excess of heat,
brought into an unequal state, as lnrge
areas OF lower stratum of highly heated
air and vapor which is also intensely
electric, the conditions to produce sand
spcuts, water-spouts, aud tnrnados, are
fully ripe. The upper and colder LAYER
of the atmosphere cannot cool the lower
bighly-heated and vapor lalcned STRAIT
um so evenly and quickly as to prevent
vents in the form of tunnels forming
from the lower stratum to the higher
stratum, causing rupture which takes
place upward in pipe form jus. MS alter

with whirling motion-in our
northern hemisphere always III the di-
rection of the hands of clock-and so
the heated, highly electric and excess
lively vapor-laden atmosphere breaks
into the cold atmosphere above when mt
the level Of the "dew point" invisible
vapor becomes visible, parting with its
latent heat, which SO rariiies the air as to
force some OF the condensed atmosphere
IN visible clouds, mounting thousands If
feet above the condensed dew point into

To feed this pipe, or, as in some cases,

His father is well known. and is one Of

sensations of the city. The trial that
followed was full of intense interest.
Hazeltine's mother WAS his good angel
throughout From the first she has left
nothing undone To secure his life and
liberty. Brilliant counsel saved his
neck and got the term of Imprisonment

Since then Mrs. iazeltine has been
constantly at work to get HIM parioned.
She got recommendation from 10 mem

gained the intercession of Gov. Hill of

The Death Of Cleopatra.

DIR. Wand Grand Marais, of Nantes
has been holding an inquest on the
sudden death of Cleopatra. He rejects
the theory that her death was caused
by the bite of viper. She was accus.
toned to test the effects of various
poisons on her slaves, in order to ascer
tain which caused the easiest death. Hav-
ing shown that no viper was found in
the room OF the fair suicide, that her BODY
no trace of bites, and that her
two maid servants were found dead or
dying at the foot of her bel, he comes
10 the conclusion that her death was
caused by carbonic oxide.
