O, white moon, sailing down the sky,
Iwatch you when in bed lie;
watch you on the calm blue deep,
And dream Of you when fast asleep.

That you are some good fairy's boat,
And winds that round my window blow
Are the same winds which make you go.
Each star that shines for me so bright
For you is just beacon light.

Who brings each day the morning dew;
Each drop is SO much like gem,
Think the fairy gathers them,
And leaning over as you pass
Lets millions fall upon the grass.

Afternoon Session.

The afternoon session was devoted to
the consideration of insect pests and their
parasites.
W. E. Collins, of Ontario, read the
first paper, on "Insect Pests and the
Laws Therefor" He said that coneid-
cradle progress had been made in the
matter of making laws for the protection
OF fruit, but he thought that quarantine
laws should be passed so that a greater
protection would be afforded. When it
had been found that insect pests had
been carried long distances from the
place whore the fruit or vegetable had
been grown, then he considered it time
that some means of protection should be
adopted. He was convinced that unless
all gruit-growers co0perated more than
at present to carry out the laws the OBJ
jects OF those who framed the laws
would not be carried out. The
laws should be more clearly
defined, and while they said that quar-.
antine might be established, they did not
say how it was to be carried into effect.
He read the various laws bearing on
the subject and suggested that an effort

cisco. testified that he was a nephew Of
The deceased, and was summoned to
Florence, Arizona, by his uncle on We'd
nesday last, reaching there Friday night.
de found his uncle in very weak con-
dition, and learned from him that his
physician had given him up as incur
able. he seemed imbued with the idea
that if he could see DIR. King, of San
Francisco, he would be cured, and in
sisted upon being taken there by his
nephew. As he appeared to be a little
better and stated that he could stand
the trip, he and his nephew started
on Sunday morning last. The sick man
withstood the ordeal splendidly until
after leaving IBdie, when the train en-
countered sand storm. This brought
on violent it of coughing and caused
hemorrhage. A physician was found
among the passengers ON the train by the
sick mans nephew, and the hemorrhsge
WAS stopped, but a few hours later the
consumptive patient had an internal
hemorrhage and gradually sank, until he
expired just after the train left Pomona.
The Jury on hearing this statement re-
turned verdict of death from natural
causes.
Mr.. Jones, who was bachelor, owned
a large cattle ranch in Arizona, and was
in very prosperous circumstances.
