Getting Rid of a Pest.

Can any one devise a method for
checking the ravages of the May bug
equally bad in the grub state one year
and the winged state the next2 Then
for two years it gives US some peace.
l find the following method in use in
1879: In Switzerland a remarkable ap.
pearance of grubs threatened the en-
tire crops. The council of state ap-
pealed to one of the archbishops to
Danish them. An advocate was ap-
pointed to defend the grubs and a
priest to accuse them. After due sum
mons and fair trial this sentence was
pronounced: "Ye hideous and de
graded creatures, ye grubsl There
was nothing like you in the ark Of
Noahl By orders of the archbishop
l command ye to disappear during the
next six days from every place whore
food grows for man or beast.
But as this was held by some to be
only true citation, another day was
set, and the result was this judgment,
I'VE, Benedictus of Monforraud, arch
bishop of Lausanne, condemn and ex-
communicate ye obnoxious worms and
grubs, that nothing be left of you ex
cept such parts as can be useful to
man" am sorry to add that the gov
ernment officers reported mo success

Why Are We Nation of Army Haters9
1t is no doubt natural that we Amer
leans should be nation of army haters,
but it is pity that for the scruple of
thanks our little regular army ever gets
there should be so many ounces of
grumbling. Uncle Sam has no public
servants who work so faithfully and
endure such hardships and danger.
Why should we $4,000. 900 Americans
still harbor an inherited rancor against
80, 600 of our own countrymen because
they professionally wear a uniform2
The volunteers were always the pets
of the nation; the regulars came in for
more than their share of abuse And
yet what generals won our battlesf
What troops stood such decimations 2
That volunteer deserves a certain
credit beyond a regular for equal serv-
ice no one will be found TO dispute;
but let us not forget the one in the
services of the other.-Colonel T. A.

wAsmNoroS, u. C., JANUARY 81, 1891.

ANEW LfduT HAS been thrown upon the
deadly conflict raging between the es-
tcemcd Post and the Civil Service Com
mission. In the Washington correspon-
denco of the New York SIN, published
Friday, there was a statement to the effect
that Mr.. RUSSELL u. HARRISON, the Presi-
dents son, is authority for the Posts as
sertion that the President had severely
reprimanded the Commissioners on ac-
count Of the WNNAMiRER letter. When
the Foa first charged the Commissioners
with having been subjected TO a caustic
and humilating rebukc at the hands Of the
President they one and all denied it with
Nigor and enthusiasm. Mr. ROOSEVELT,
who is given to large and strenuous forms
of expression, denounced il as "a lie out
Of whole cloth" and Messrs. LYMAN
and THOMPSON, if less ornate and opulent
in their rhetoric, were equally positive
as TO the facts. Since that the Post has
repeatedly challenged the Commissioners
10 deny ITS story, seeming to regard the
"lie direct rs n playful little tdcon de
porlcr, signifying nothing, To this the
Commissioners have thus far made no re-
ply. They perhaps think they have al
ready denied as vigorously as need be- and
Mr.. ROOSEVELT doubtless reposcs more
confidence in the efficacy and significance
of the brand, "lie" than the Post appears
To do. But the situation has been changed
by the publication in the S,m above re-
fcrrod to. In this publication the Post
receives very positive confirmation of its
original story, and the Commissioners
incur an even more direct and specific
denial Of theirs. The SUMS article not
only reiterates the Posts assertion that the
Commissioners received, in the per-
son of Mr.. LYMAN, scorching
reprimand from the President; it goes
further and gives as authority
for that assertion the Presidents son, Mr..
RUSSELL b. HARRISON. 1t would come to
this community in the nature of a great,
sweet, heavenly boon If the question at
issue could be settled in some definite
way. We have been so long and so cruelty
torn by these dreadful doubts that life
has become almost too grievous to be en-
durcd. With the Post issuing accusations
and Commissioner ROOSEVELT churning
clithet and anathema from between his
clenchod teeth, the strain on ones nervous
organization is destructive.

A WRITER IN SOME Cincinnati paper-the
IiDns-Star, if we are not mistaken-has
been telling how he first met EMMA JUcu.
Among other things, he says:
So went over and we were introduced
as well az we could be under the circum-
stances. Well, Miss JUCH was the Water
in "William Tell" remember, and was n
success. Then she made great success in
"fidelio."
EMMA JucH singing the part of Walter in
civilian Telln And yet no doubt this
gifted journalist was the musical critic OH
the occasion. He writes like the average
musical critic who sneers at the French
and Italian schools and exalts WAGNER
to the skies.
