City Marshal James Dunn spent a
few days last week IN the foot hills
casting the,fly among the riffels. He
reports lots of fun fishing, only a few
hours each day with a total of over 800.
r. NJ. Davisson brought in a creal,
the results of few hours fishing
which counted 146.
Zeph Job is still the king fisherman,
149, but Mr.. Davisson says had be
known that he was so near beating
jobs big string he could easily have
taken few more.
Jim Irwin, A. Hodes, Geo. Parvin,
and Cal Hutton ran the streams on
Sunday last and brought in over 800
speckled beauties.
The boys from Mary's peak report
bear, panther and wild cat scarce, but
weather fine.
"Be sure and call me at three o'clock
tomorrow morning." was the parting
words of our king fisherman to the
night watchman. "All right" came
back the answer, and at 3:l5 a. m.
Zeph rode out of town with his man
Friday bound for the foot hills, saying
to himself, 81 will beat my old record
to-day 'or bust I viii give the boys a
lesson to learn with the rod and fly"
After drive of twelve miles solitary
fisherman could have been seen splash
ing along the riffels, first here and
then there, but not il strike "Where
are the fish," he was heard to say quite
often. Now and thena small fish was
his reward, and so passed the day,
when about sundown he overlook two
knights of the lod with about 500 fine
trout, "H"llo," he said, "What luckq'
s Good luck was the answer, "We
have some over 500. How with you,
my friend?" "Oh, poor luck, only twen-
ty-seyen, and l have run the brook for
over ten miles, ".Fhe fact is my
friend," said one of the lucky fisher
men, tive heard there was a man
named Job from Corvallis, mighty
fisherman, who was coming out to
clean out this brook to-day, so we
started in yesterday morning and have
been fishing ever since. They say he
fishes by steam, and if you see him just
tell him the countrymen got in a little
ahead this time" eyes, oh, yes. I'il tell
him~all about it; good day gentlemen.

How 10 Write a Good Letter.

A letter, whatever its faults of expression
is good one If it makes the reader feel that
the writer is speaking with tho pen out OF
the fulness of the heart, not composing some
thing to be read. When we hear that Lady
Duff Gordon said ~ never could write a
good letter, and unless | gallop as hard as /
can, and don't stop to think can say nothing,
80 all is confused and uncorrected," we feel
sure that her letters are agreeable reading
When Swift writes to Lord Bathurst, II
swear your Lordship is the first person alive
that made me lean on my elbow while writ
ing to him, and by conscience this will be
the worst letter ever writ" we expect to
find Swift in his correspondence. When, on
the other hand, we are told that Lord Orrery,
Swift's noble biognpher," made transcripts
OF letters, following regular rules of com.
position" adding chapter and verse for model,
and pointing out the elegance ofhis own con
ceits, we are glad that Lord 0rrery does not
write to us. When we read that the letters
of MIR. Day-the man who talked like his own
Stanford and Merton-were written as fast
as his pen could move and never the less are
so rhetorical as "to give the idea of their be.
ing composed with great care !" we are thank.
ful that we are not obliged to read them.

sidered. Isee young fellows OF Broadway
every day dressed in q fashion which would
constitute show on Regent street, and yet
their Irish or German tailor assures them
that they are arrayed In the latest English
fashion. The fact is that the AVERAGE young
Englishman has sense Of the eternal
fitness of things not exhibited by his cis-at1
lantic imitator. The three-inch checks in
colors so loud that they would discount a
brass band are reserved for country or sea-
side wear. In the city the dark sack or cut
away trock with light II ousers is the rule.
and plain white silk four-in-hand is the cor
rect thing in neckwear. The only men who
sport loud suits In London are the "'Arrys,"
the grocers' clerks and Diapers assistants,
and they only exhibit their wondrous fnery
on Sunday or s'bank 'oliday at'Appy Am
stead" The ambition of seven out of every
ten Of our young New Yorkers seems to bs
to initiate the English, and their method OF
accomplishing that purpose IS by making
themselves look as much like fools as pos.
sible. Nature having given them a good
start in that direction they are sometimes
surprisingly successful.
The British bar-maid. by the way, IS an
institution which has never taken root in
our American soil. An enterprising En-
glishman who kept a bar-room under
Waliack's Theater tried the experiment

few years ago of importing half dozen
long -limbed, fresh-complexioned British
damsels, with the laudable intention of hav-
ing genuine British "pub'' for the benefit
of Astronomical New Workers. But the
scheme did not work. The average Amer
lean frequenter of bar rooms has not Guilt
waited the same kind Of idiocy affected by
his British prototype. In an American bar
room the patrons swear and tell objection
able stories between drinks, while in En-
gland the British youth occupy the inter-
walls in the process of getting fuddled in
staring fatuously at the BARNARD. The i'm
ported bar-maids interfered with the COM
fort of the patrons of the place. for man
has to get pretty low down in the scale be-
fore he can take any comfort in swearing
in the presence of a woman, and then the
bar-maid can't mix drinks. Her vast and
comprehensive ignorance of the composition
of Cocktails" t.fizzes,'' 'spunches'' and
other palate-soothing but misunderstanding
connections of the American liquor juggler
would do credit to the president of a T. A.
b. lodge. AS consequence there is little
or no temptation to drink to excess.
There are many points where we in New
York might to advantage initiate London
fashions and methods. We might, for ex-
ample, introduce decent cab system. In
London one can catch a hanson on any cor
ner and ride two miles for quarter. In
New York the chances are that you will
have to walk several blocks to find cab
and then walk several miles in order to
earn money enough to pay for it. But why
go into comparisons? Our Angloman1acs
have heretofore initiated English foibles
and, as might be expected in the case of
creatures of their shallow mentality, have
ignored the valuable lessons which we might
learn from our British cousins. This sea-
son ENGLAND has been visited, en- route to
Paris, by a greater number of really sensi-
BILE Americans than ever before, and the
fact that they are thinking about what they
have seen, and that it forms subject for
conversation, proves that the seeds OF a
more useful Anglomania have taken root.
We are young country as yet, and in
many things England has an advantage

etc., is the immature stage of the May
beetle. or ''June Bug" noticed usually
in great numbers in early summer.
Its habits are quite different from those
of the Tumble Bug" this latter spe-
cies depositing it's eggs in the balls of
dung which it is seen rolling along in
roads, ETC., and the young feed upon the
decaying matter thus provided for them.
They are therefore rather beneficial than
otherwise. The May beetle, on the con-
trary, deposits it's eggs in the ground,
particularly in sod, and the larvae feed
upon the roots of such plants as occur in
their vicinity. They are therefore often
extremely destructive to grass, straw
berries, corn, potatoes, as we'll as to vari-
GUS garden vegetables.
The excellent illustrations show the
adult beetles, side and back view, the
pupa in it's oval cell awaiting it's trans
formation to the beetle stage. Aside
from the injuries to the roots of plants,
there is often much damage caused by
this insect to forest and shade trees,
since the beetles congregate on them
in the night time and cut off the leaves,
sometimes seriously stripping them.
REMEDIES SUGGESTED.
1t has been demonstrated by expert
ment in Washington that grubs of a re-
lated species can be destroyed by
drenching the ground with kerosene
emulsion.
But this method, while applicable to
very valuable lawns, would be too ex-
pensive to apply in meadows or pastures,
and probably the best recommendation
that can be made for land seriously in
tested with them is to summer fallow,
and then the next season plant some
crop not attacked by the grubs. Wheat
and oats are so nearly allied to grass
that they would probably be affected
seriously. Corn, if planted quite late,
after the land had been plowed early
the preceding fall, should be reasonably
free from injury. Hogs will root the
grubs out, and moles probably assist in
their destruction. There is parasitic
fungus which grows upon the larvae,
killing them before they mature, and
this is sometimes abundant enough to
assist materially in reducing their mum
