Seaton Miller, a farmer, came near

The Barnum & Bailey show here
last Friday was miserable farce, so
pronounced by the best of our citizens.
The performances were cut into mince
meat. The riding was ridiculous and
the racing in every sense burlesque.
"The Fall of Nero, "a beautiful specta-
cular play, was presented In" job lots,"
and while the costumes were very
rich and the marching excellent, the
program was so thoroughly disar-
ranged that no one enjoyed or under.
stood it. The reserved seat employees
were very insulting, and distinguish.
ed for discourtesy. Otherwise the
show was good. Fine animals and
pretty horses.
If p. 7. Barnum could have been
alive, he would have felt Inundated
at the spectacle the circus made, and
looking at the sea of people present
have realized more keenly than ever
that the American people love to bt
humbugged." X.

THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

A most important election will soon
be held for members of the School
Board. 1t is an election which inter
ests directly the citizens of the town
and the welfare of their children.
For this reason it never receives the
attention of the citizens as it should,
but is left to politicians and half po-
liticians. The people of Martinsburg
in the last year have been served with
column after column of school agita-
ton now is the time to act,-the
opportunity to make it count,-THE
DUTY of every friend of the public
schools to be ex ercised and discharg.
ed at the polls.
Already the politicians and those
personally interested are hobnobbing
together in quiet places, getting up
states and cooking schemes which
bode no good to the schools, no good
to the people and no good to the best
class of teachers and scholars.
People of Martinsburg, put your
heads together and your votes togeth-
er irrespective of politics but for the
best Interest of the schools, and elect
common sense business men in whom
you can trust the interests of your
schools, -men who are not influenced
by friends or politicians mot by self
interest or personal matters, but sole
ly by the good of the schools and to
represent the will of the whole peo-
pie; men who have the courage of
their convictions and will not allow
any outside or inside influence to
move them from the popular course
of law, justice and equal rights for
all.
1.Beware of the politicians and that
class Of political hangers-on for whom
they are working.
2. Beware of self.seekers and their
grind stone turner's.
8. Beware of those who are loudly
shouting in season and out, "there is
no politics in it," aud yet now and
always have straight out partisan
and comfortable party ticket in the
| field.

About Wasps.

Wr1tten for the Republican.
Sevcral years ago, while living in
the Stale Of New Jersey. 1 used to
occupy most of my spare time in the
su,fsiner season collecting all kinds
of iflsects and preserving them in
alcohol.
One fine morning in midsummer,
white wandering ateund in search of
of any Deculiar kind of insect which
uiglat attract my notice I found a
veTy fne mud nest maue by the large
bIack wasp, commonly known as the
mud wasp. AS this was the fret
nest 0f this kind of wasp that l had
ever seen fully expected to find il
Hlieu with the lava of the mud wasp.
Wa exceedingly disappointed.
heS;sssss and surprised also, on find-
ing1t allied with large, Fsncy spiders.
The spiders were all alive, but in
such Il beuumed condition they could
only just move their legs on being
touched. How the wasp had accom-.
plished this l am unable to say.
probably by stinging the spiders in
some vital part, so as not to kill them
altogether. On close examination OF
the spiders, l found on several OF
their backs a soft kind of egg depos-
tied there by the wasp. This ex-
cited my curiosity and l determined
to keep the spiders and notice what
The result would be in regard to the
Wasps' eggs.
Having kept them two or three
weeks / noticed that as the eggs grew
larger the spiders grew less, and in q
short time the eggs having come to
maturity. or the lava state. the
spiders had become mere skeletons
The remainder of the spiders in the
nest, not having any eggs on their
backs. were just sufficient. it seems
as food for the young grubs of the
wasp to liYe on until they become
perfect Wasps.
This proved to my mind that the
egg of tho mnd Wasp required just
this kind of live TODD to bring it tC
perfection.
