The Prominent Citizen,

When individuals and the masses of
a community find themselves day after
day and year after year face to face
with a fellow-citizen who is doing
nothing, has rnever done any thing
and never proposes to do any thing ex-
cept stand around in an eloquently-im-
pressive style, they naturally go to
work to utilize him. Sometimes they
make him the chairman, president or
secretary of various organizations, and
again they make a kind of show figure
of him, working him into matters of
social or political nature. In the
course of time he becomes a necessity,
and whenever any thing is to be done
it is generally given up that the case is
hopeless unless the prominent citizen
can be secured. Age deals gently with
this popular favorite, and the younger
generation gradually come TO look up
on him as a man who could have climb
ed the dizziest heights of fame, but
whose modesty and public spirit led
him to voluntarily turn over all the
prizes Of life to his friends.-AtlantG

Habits of the Chinch Bug.

The chinch bug belongs TO that Or
der Of insects that have the anterior
wings or wing covers transparent to-
ward the end, the true wings straight
and unplaited, and that feed on vege-
table or animal juices by means of n
sucker-tube. 1t is about one-seventh
OF an inch long, with white wing COW
ers, upon each of which is short CEN
tral line and large marginal oval
spot OF black; the remainder OF the
body is black and downy; the beak,
legs, base of antene, and hinder edge
of thorax is reddish yellow, and the
forepart of the thorax is grayish. The
young are without wings, and at first
are bright red, and change gradu-
ally to the colors of the adult. The
eggs are laid in the ground, and the
young appear on the wheat generally
about the middle of June. There are
two broods in a season, the second one,
which appears in the fall, alternating.
The favorite place for this retirement
is in any rubbish, grass, straw, fodder
or manure pile, from which the hiber-
mates issue in the spring. The reme-
dies tried have been numberless, but
nothing has been wholly effectual.
Professor Forbes has found kerosine
an excellent specific. Much cold rain
destroys them to a great extent. Sew

Beauties of Frog-Farming.

Any man who has a pond on his
farm can try the experiment of raising
his own frogs. First let him buy, say,
six pairs of fine New Jersey breeders
and dump them into the water. With
these for a starter you may select n
quantity Of domestic batrachia, and
then you will have the nucleus of a
fortune. Don't interfere with your
water investment for u year any more
than to keep your growing stock well
supplied with food. They require an
abundance, but as they are not very
dainty in their taste the expense ac-
count will be light. For young farm
two barrels day of hotel table scraps
will keep the frogs in splendid shape,
so that at the end of twelve months you
can begin marketing all that you can
fish out at the same price as spring
chicken. Give me the time and facili-
ties and will wager that at the end of
two years l will be living on an income
of 5000, and my frogs will pay all ex-
penses. Louis GlObe-DemocrG

NEW MEXICAN WITCHES.

Tho Terror OF a Superstltious and Igno-
rant Race OF People.
Our witchOiogy Is full, detailed and
graphic. Every paisano can tell you
their strange habits. their marvellous
powers and their baleful deeds. They
never injure the dumb animals, but
woe to tho human being who in

If witch asks for food, wood. cloth
ing or any thing else, mono dare say
her nay. Nor dare any one eat what
witch proffers; for, If ho do, some
animal, alive and gnawing. will form
in his stomach. BY day tho witches
wear their familiar form, but at night,
dressed in strange animal shapes, they
fly abroad to hold witch meetings in
tho mountains or TO wrcak their evil
wills. In dark night you may see
them flying through the sky like so
many balls of fire. and there are COM
paratvely few Mexicans in the Terri
tory who have not seen this weird
sight. For these nocturnal sallies the
witches wear their own bodies, but
take the legs and eyes of cayote or
other animal leaving thoir own at
home. Juan Perea. male witch, who
died hero in San Mateo some months
ago, met with u strange misfortune in
this wise: He had gone Off with the
eyes of a cat and during his absence
n dog knocked over tho table and
ato up Juan's eyes; so the unfortunate
witch had to wear cats eyes all the
rest Of his life.
Before they can fly, witches are
obliged to cry out; "Sln Dios, sin

about New Mexico witches is that any

AQUATIC INSECTS.

and Keep Them.
| The electric lights of our towns-still
better those at country and seaside re-
sorts-are wonderful helps to the young
entomologist. AT Conoy Island, for
example, you may see from early in
the evening till late into the hours of the
morning vast clouds of fascinated in
sects circling round and dashing against
the lamps, to fall at last to the ground,
and easy prey to the collector.
viii you accept from veteran, who
captured his first "darning-needle"
many years ago, u few hints as to
means for studying aquatic insectsP
When spending my vacations at the
lakes or ON the sea-shore, always take
with me Il couple of nets of what are
known TO the hardware trade as
painted tubs. These tubs are very
light and handy, and are tip-top for
packing things in; they cost about two
dollars Il nest In these tubs | start
my fresh and saltwater aquaria, and
study the habits Of various fresh-water
insects and animals.
All fresh-watcr insects rise to the
surface TO breathe, for which fact they
are very easy TO keep in confinement;
but remember they are all voracious,
and will destroy one another if not fed
either on fresh meat. fish or worms,
and also bear in mind that they all
have flying wings, and, unless the tubs
have netted covers, they will get away.
In the bottom of the tubs place a two
inch layer OF fine river sand. In the
sand | plant any of the finer and most
attractive of water plants, taking care
that they have roots, and not to crowd
them two closely together. These
plants are absolutely necessary for the
comfort and health of your specimens,
and they also add greatly to the beauty
OF the aquaria, as well as teach les
sons in aquatic botany. The tubs should
be placed where the morning sun shines
on them from one to two hours.
All bug-like creatures found in fresh
water, whose bodies are long and of a
dirty white or greenish color, are the
babies OF various water insects. Every
one OF these water babies has fearful |
appetite, and all are provided by nat
ure with special equipment of "gal-
ly-nippers," hooks, needles and clamps
for capturing their food; but, of all
food for water babies, earth-worms are
the best. All the water beetles will |
construct their nests when confined |
and properly taken care of in an
aquarium. 1t is very amusing to place
Il number of house-aies on the surface
Of the water and watch the "apple-
chase after them; or, better
still, water spiders. In fact, there is
no end to the instruction and enter
lainment that can be grained by study
ing the habits of our most common
wateg insects. Golden Days.

THE MINES ARE ALL RIGHT.

The London correspondent of the
Engineering and Mining journal
says:
The Alturas dividend did not keep
up the shares, and hear that several
large holders have been selling. They
have fallen from about 80 shillings to
~ shiilings on realiza,ions. No mar
ket has vet been made for the Rocky
Bar Wide West Shares.
The depth of snow on the ground
having delayed, if not entirely pre-
vented, the beginning of develop
ment work at the Wide West group,
i, is not surprising that there should
be no market for the shares Of this
property, which only passed to Egg
fish han Is about GO days ago. by tins
time next year, however, these shares
will doubtless he in greater favor with
investors.
As to the A!.uras shares, 81 shil
linys is pretty good price, since they
scarcely cost the promoters onefourth
Of that sum. The heavy holders who
realized are probably those who have
taken hold Of the Gro Fine group, in
Dwyhec county; and as this is II large
property that may require round
half-mil!ion dollars to be put on a
dividend basis, the reason for realiz-
ing on 20 ton Of their Alturas
shares is lain. Tic Alturas com
