ruosr COUNTY a., SCALES.

The Advocate of last week takes up
the cue In defense Of the weigh scales
on the southeast corner Of the public
square in Columbus and asserts that
they are no more of a Columbus insti-
tuition than they are OF any other por-
lion OF the county. The Advocate
knew Il was telling what were not the
facts when IL made that assertion.
Now what are the facts In the case.
About three years ago the farmers
who had been taking their grain to
the Columbus market became dissat-
isiied with tho weights Of the Column
bus graiu buyers and began hauling
their grain 10 other markets. Indeed,
farmers living but a short distance
from Columbus would take their grain
TO Mcclure, Cherokee, Hallowell, Neu-
tral, CrpStlinc, Baxter, in fact all the
towns in aud adjacent 10 this county
before they would take it TO Column
bus. and, as they claimed, be swindled
by the grain buyers OF that place.
This the merchants aud business men
of Columbus could not stand, SO de-
mand was made by them upon the
CITY council Tor the erection OF city
scales To be placed in charge OF a
weighmaster who would be disinter-
csted party. THE erection OF the scales
already mentioned was the result
of that demand. Not single farmer
asked for the erection OF those scales
and il was not for their benefit that
they were put in. True, they were
perhaps benefited by them by being
saved from the asserted fraudulent
weights OF the grain buyers, but they
were erected wholly and solely for tho
benefit of Columbus and Columbus
merchants, aud every dollar that II
taken in by these scales goes into tn
treasury Of the city Of Columbus. Ii
as the Advocate asserts, they are 10
the benefit of the people why is Ii tina
the funds derived from this source d.
not 90 into the county treasury wher
the people luay be benefited by them
Oh no, Mr.. Advocate, your assertion
is too shaky; it won't hold together.
We are sorry to learn that the coun
" commissioners have rescinded In
order of having the scales remove
from their present site, as 1t is a sham
and disgrace to allow such looEin
thing to be perched upon prominer
corner of the court house square.

The Tent Caterpillar.

Iwish to say, writes Il correspon-
dent of the Michigan Farmer, that the
easiest and / think the best way to rid
an orchard of the caterpillar is TO take
long rod, a fishing rod or any rod
that can be easily handled, and tie
some rags OH it for swab, and after
the DAVIS washing is done save the
strong soap suds and take them In a
pail and go through the orchard in the
early morning aud wet thoroughly all
nests found, with the suds, and l as
sure vcu that it will kill the worms in
r- less time than it takes me
TRY to write it. If the suds
QUEEN should not be strong of soap
soAP; more can he added. Most
Of tbe nests can be reached with pole
from fifteen to twenty feet long, and
| in this way no injury. is done to the
branches, as might be the case with q
torch, and the labor is light compared
TO climbing the tree with torch. The
morning is the time to do the work
and passing through the orchard to-
wards the sun any little nest can 0t
seen, and once wetting the nest will ~

morning, and later in the day they arr

CHARGED WITH ENTERTAINMENT.

Mr.. G. w. Mays, loan broker OF

Friday upon the charge OF emoezzie-
ment. For the past seven years Mr..
NAYS has been loaning money on per,
soual and chattel securities. the capital
Iein. mostly furnished by all aunt OF
his by marriage, and has always done
GOOD business. Everything had
cone along smoothly enough until last
March. since which time no reports

Friday the aunt came to columbus

work was begun and proceeded win
until noon when they stopped for dln-
ner. Mr.. Mays promising TO return

of doing that he hitchcd up his team
and uot friend to take him to Gale
ma where he took the train for Joplin,
intending, no doubt, to leave OIL the
night train for parts unknown, as nc
told his friend he would never again
be in Columbus. The settlement so
far AS il had been proceeded win
showed him to be short something
over $1,000. Being out Of money he
nawned his watch on arriving in Jop-
lin and at once began imbibing freely
of intoxicants SO that by the time
sheriff Babb arrived on the evening
train with warrant for his arrest ne
was heavily intoxicated and made nc
resistance, in fact had decided to re-
turn TO Columbus and stand trial
Arriving at Columbus he waived pre-
liminary trial aud was placed in jan
Rail was offered him but he refused II
Mr.. Mays claims he has committed
no crime; that he was paying III
amt lawful interest for her money
and whatever amount he is short III
is simply indebted to her. de has
been very careful in the transaction
of his business, making but few un
safe loans, but whiskey and cards ar
said to be the cause Of his downfall
He has a wife and four small children
who. ii he is convicted of the charge
. will be left in almost destitute circum
stances, as the aunt has attached a.

The death rate for the large towns was 2!.3 ; for the small towns l9.2 for for the whole state 20.6; for Waterbury IS. The deaths from zymotic diseases were 495, being 3S.6 per cent of the total mortality, against 3S per cent in July. The large percentage is still due to e&- cessive mortality from diarrhoea.
 Diarrhoea is reported as more gener' ally prevalent than in July, although several correspondents mention 1t as abating in their towns. But S6 towns report fatal cases. Total mortality 3S7, against 390 in July.
 An outbreak of typhoid fever occurred in New Haven. Twenty cases were re- ported during the month, three quarters of winch were in one ward. The others are in widely separated parts of the town. No common source of infection has been discovered as yet by the health authorities, although they are still pur- suing the investigation.
