Tie Bug That Saved the Orange Trees.

The Austrian lady bug has apparently
about accomplished its mission in Sierra
Madre, and is becoming very scarce here.
1t is less than three months ago that this
wonderful little insect was first intro
duced by placing colonies in a few Of
our orange orchards. and without fur
Their care or attention they have multi
piled and spread, and have at absolutely
no cost done what without them could
not have been accomplished with unlim-
tied money and vast mount of labor.
And the trees are all healthy and -four
ishing, presenting a very different APP
pearance to that formerly seen after the
process of spraying with medicated
washes. The large groves on the Bald
win and Chapman ranches are not en-
tirely redeemed al yet, but the parasites
are making satisfactory progress, and
the total determination of the pest
whiy.a has caused q loss Of many thou
sands of dollars to the owprrs is but n
question Of time.-Sierra Madre Vista.

One adventure OF dead Bottesinfs
should be remembered. He was playing
one night at Antwerp. and there was a
full ROOM. and considerable curiosity for
his turn to begin. He took his place
baside his colossal doublesbass. and com
menced his variations. The public were
eiectri6ed-and 30 was the player. No
one who knows the double bass could
say OF the instrument that it was squeaky
and shyieky. II has It's faults. but a,
least shrfllness b MT Of them. The
sounds came forth that evening piercing
and pathetic. The player looked terri
fed; his Instrument seemed bewitched.
and the sounds continued even when
the bow was not drawn across the
strings. For . moment Bottesini fall
tered. and then plunging his hand into
the internal cavities Of his big instru-
ment, he drew Il back very hurriedly
He Introduced It again very carefully
and took Out and held up 70 the room q

there. There were kittens to follow

Il think that nothing impressed me 80
much" said the traveller, las a burial at
sea which / witnessed on the voyage
home. The poor fellow who died was a
sailor-he fell from a yard and crushed
his skull upon the deck. The funeral
service took place in the afternoon of a
warm June day. 1t was inexpressibly
solemn. The sea was as calm as the
Ohio is today-hardly a ripple on the
waves, hardly a cloud in the sky.
"A clergyman, who happened to be on
board, read the Episcopal service for the
burial of the dead at sea, and very beau
tiful it a The coffin lay in the middle
Of the group OF his fellow seamen, with
the passengers in a greater circle beyond
them. A gangway had been opened in
the bulwarks to allow the launching of
the coffin into the sea.
There the coffin lay, with the union
jack wrapped around it. The sea seemed
to have grown more calm than ever. 1t
was like polished glass. Not a sign Of
life over it; not a ship In sight: no even

The divorce law passed in France in
1884 seems to be operating with terrible
effect. In 1884 there were 1851 divorces;
in 1885, 4,i23; in 1886. 4,007, in 1887,
5,797. But the most astounding state
ment made Is that in the department of
the Seine-i. e., Paris and its neighbor-
hood-there are no fewer than 62.S d.
vorces to every thousand marriages, or
that considerably more than one in TWEEN
ty marriages (say one in sixteen) ends in
a divorce. On the other hand, in the
Finistere and the Cotes du Nord not
much more than one in a thousand mar
riages ends in a divorce-a curious testi-
mony this to the different morale of Pa

The Actor E1cpt2His Word.

arrived i'll Plnnkiuton from Chamberlain he
found TINT tho manager of the Planhinton
opera house hid billed his first nights engage
ment for "Itichal1i Ill.," although the actor
had given Instructions to be billed for "Othel-
To-" Flo played "Othello," however, despite
tho f,lct that ho had been billed for G!oster.
AT the fall of tho curtain lie came forward
and explained the reason for tho confusion
and announced that he would play Richard
on the following night. The manager of tho
house thereupon jumped to his feet and IN
angry debate followed, Mr., lHooto declaring
that ho Would play "lsictard III" i'll the
opera house on tho following night and tho
manager affirming that he should not. Tho
audience listened attentively to the debate,
but remained neutral and went home when
tho discussion ended But Mr. Foote and his
entire company staid Thoy camped all
night on tho stage, unl when tho marshal
came to eject them he was confronted at tho
doorway with Mr.. Foote'S brace Of mastitrs.

MARIA MITCHELL
a Distinguished Woman Astronomer
Whose Death Was Recently Recorded,

Distinguished Woman Astronomer
Whosc Death Was Recently Recorded.
When Maria Mitchell, whose ,leatl, oc-
Cured recently, retired from her professor
ship III Vussnr college and announced that
she realized the end Of her life to be near,
the statement brought grief to many hun-
dred ladies Of culture in the United States,
for though she was not tcnderly loved as
many lady teachers are, nll her students fels
n deep and abiding reverence for her 1t
was then designed to givo her grand rcccp-
ton this year. Over LOCO guests were in
vited, and the large salon OF the nearest
hotel was filled, there being $50 Vassar grad
uates among the guests. But ut the last
moment Miss Mitchell dispatched that it was
impossible for her to attend, and soon after
the papers announced that she was unable to
leave her room.
At such n time tho people first fully realize
what IN honor this woman has been to
America. At the age of II she assisted her
father by recording his observations of a
lunar eclipse. At the age Of 90 she discovered
and calculated the orbit of new comet,
for which the king Of Denmark sent her n
gold medal and at the age of Gs she was still
the dligent professor Of astronomy st Vas
sar, every day studying carefully tho daily
lesson of the class, diligent to sag if some new
light could not be thrown upon it. But days
OF diligence and nights of patient watch of
tic stars had worn out her originally rugged
frame and she seemed to fail all ut once,
never to rally again.
Maria Mitchell was born at Nansuci;ct,
Mass, Aug. /, l5l&. Her ancestors had been
among the first Qu;.hei,s who went to that
part ot tbs country lie: father was Will
a;n Mitchell, a BAN; cashier, wlo had n pen
chant FOR astronomy, and in Ills house tcle
