The Pestiferous Horse Fly.

OF tho fly species the horse fly is the
most cruel and bloodthirsty of the entire
family. He is armed with most for
midable weapon, which consists Of four
lancets, so sharp and strong that they
will penetrate leather. When not in use
they are nicely tssded away in sucker.
He makes his appearance in June, and
may often be seen in the vicinity Of small
streams Of water. He is said to subsit in
part upon, an airy diet, and to pass his
life harmlessly. Not 80 the female, for
she Is armed with six lancets, with which
she bleeds both cattle and horses, and
even human beings. She lays her eggs
in moist places, and after they are hatched
into footless maggots, they make all nec-
essary journeys by stretching and closing
the segments Of their bodies, their heads
being supplied by two hooks, by which
they get their food. In process of time
this maggot goes down into moist earth,
where it reposes for some weeks, after
which it bursts the pupa case, and comes
forth large black fly. armed and
equipped like its predecessors. Country

"We will give the sergeant q goblin
thunder Storm" CASTOR said, with a
smile. Then all four laughed aloud
They were sharp fellows, and they COM
pretended his plan.
Although the moon shone brightly
that night the conspirators sot forth for
the inn, walking In q single file, and
grinning with anticipation.
About midnight they were In front of
the window of the "front room on the
left" Emil threw tho sand against the
panes, CASTOR beat terrible roll upon
the drum, and Jules flashed the light of
his lantern through the window, while
Jean spattered water upon the glass.
The sergeant arose, came to the win
dow and gazed curiously out. APP
parently there was bright moonlight and
cloudless sky; but he had seen the
lightning, heard the thunder, and surely
those were drops of rain upon the panes
of the window.
The four mischief makers had crouched
closely against the wall, and with diff

mirth.
The steps retreated from the window.
After waiting a moment another Cob

the four friends that there was no clew
to the mystery, and the sergeant once
more retired, too sleepy to make any
further investigation that night.
a third repetition of their trick brought
their victim running to the door-as they
had expected.
Being ready for him, Jean deluged the
POOR sergeant with water, CASTOR deaf
ened him with the drum, Jules blinded
his eyes with tho lantern, while Emil
pelted him with the gravel, and he stag
gered back indoors with his hands over
his eyes and his breath almost gone.
Next day the sergeant asked the land
lord at breakfast time whether the ter

The landlord stared at him in silence
for moment, and then said:

piled the soldier with much dignity, ris-
ing to his feet.
"It was calm, bright moonlight night,
as any one will tell you. Why do you
ask such a foolish question? To make me
ridiculous?"
1T was but poor joke, wasn't it, mine
host?" said the sergeant, with twist at
his big mustaches while his cheeks grew
very red. "Pray say nothing about it,
and will promise not to repeat 30 Ill

marched, very erect and very proud in
deed.
Strangely enough, not only did the
sergeant seek no explanation Of his re-
markable experience at the inn, but even
his wonderful adventures In Tonquin
were no more recalled.
AS for CASTOR, Jules, Emil and Jean,
they never met together without chuck
ling and poking one another, and this
they continued to do until next fair time.

Satisfactory Results Of the Experiments
Made at Bakersfleld.
SAN FRANCISCO, August 28.-In re-
port to Special Agent Dodge, in charge
Of the fiber investigation at Washington,
w. II. Murray, superintendent OF ramie
culture for California, Superintendent
Rutherford of the California Cotton
mills at Oakland, and L. G.. McAfee,
agent for the Kern County Land COM
pany, gave the results OF experiments
with decorticating ramie machine,
conducted at Bakersfield recently. Two
hundred and seventy pounds OF dry stalks
were put through the machine in three
runs, consuming a total Of ninety-one
and a half minutes, including about fifteen
minutes lost in freeing the fibre from
the rollers. The result was seventy-one
and a half pounds of dry ramie fibre.
The second cleaning of twenty-eight
pounds of this fibre was made in seven
minutes, with the result of twenty-three
and half pounds of better quality. The
two hundred and seventy pounds of
stalks were the product of quarter of
an acre, only half planted. Superin-
tendent Rutherford estimate the values
of the fibre as it leaves the machine
decorticated once, at five cents pound.
The fibre was spun for the first time in
America at the California cotton mills,
this afternoon, and the product will be
placed on exhibition at the Mechanics
fair.

Serious Riots Precipitatsd By the Rye
Export UkAse.
ST. PETERSBURG. August. 28.-Details
OF rising at Vitebsk, the capital of the
government of that name, occasioned by
the peoples protest against the expor-
tation of rye, show q disturbance Of
serious nature. The governor reports
that there is evidence that general re-
volt OF the peasantry was planned. The
peasants attacked the railroad officials,
claiming that no more rye should leave
Vitebsk, and severely beat the Jewish
grain dealers, who are blamed for the
whole trouble. The peasantry also plum
dered the residences of these grain deal
ers, and finally combined in an attack
upon the station. The railroad officials
sent for the assistance of the military,
and the latter tried to dislodge the riot
ers from their positions in and about the
station. The rioters resisted stubbornly
and their supporters outside the rail-
road station made q fierce attack upon
the soldiers, severely injuring many of
them. Finally the officers in command
of the troops, after repeatedly threaten
ing the crowds, gave an order to fire
upon the rioters. The soldiers then
fired volley, killing two peasants and
wounding number of others. The
rioters soon after dispersed. Other and
somewhat similar disturbances are re-
ported from Dunaburg, Vinnitsa, and
other places, but no details have yet
been made public.

Scott, of the Union Iron Works, in an
interview in the Post this afternoon,
concerning the progress of the construc-
tion of the coast defense vessel Mon
terey, which was launched during Pres
ident Harrison's visit to this coast, said:
"We are getting the machinery of the
Monterey into place as quickly as possi-
BILE. The boilers are set and one engine
is in position. Everything will be ready
for the trial trip in October. and if we
are not delayed by the failure of the
government to send out the armor, the
vessel will be completed and ready to be
turned over long before the date pro-
vided for in the contract. 1t is time we
were receiving the armor plate, and if
it does not come along very soon, work
will have to be delayed to await its ar
rival. Cruiser No. is getting along
very nicely, and although we are maxi
ing rapid progress, it is impossible to
state how soon she will be launched"

THE GRAPE CROP.

Continued Hot Weather Seems to Have
Curtailed the Yield.
SAN Francisco, August 28.-The Post
in resume concerning the grape crop,
says:
The situation is not very promising
for the wine and raisin makers of the
state. The first hot spell, when the
fruit was young and barely formed,
checked its growth and it has been de-
veloping very slowly ever since, partic-
ularly in the central counties; and
whereas they should have had foggy
and moist weather, it has been dry, and
followed up by another severe hot spell.
tions the grapes are very small, poorly
close Of the ripening season they have
damp weather or a good shower of rain,
the product will be very far below the
usual average.
The Napa county vineyards for the
past ten days have been suffering for
lack of rain, all of which indicates a
materially reduced grape crop and wine
yield. In Merced and Fresno counties
the yield will be fair. There is every
indication in this quarter that the out
look for brandies is all right, and it may
be stated that one Of the largest firms in
this city has applied for a gauger and
will begin the distillation of brandy Sat-
urday next.
The damage to the raisin crop in
Fresno and the northern counties has
been estimated at anywhere from 20 to
25 per cent.
The greatest falling off will be in the
fbothill districts where the indus
try is still in it's infancy.
The result is estimated by one of the
best informed men in Fresno county,
that the product there will be about the
same as last year, which was in the
neighborhood Of 10000 boxes. In the
Riverside section, the damage was
slight, and the later reports from San
Diego are that the crop is in excellent
condition.
1t is the general opinion in all the
growing raisin sections, that there will
be considerably smaller. per centage of
layers, and more of loose raisins and or
dinary grades. Prices are still unset
tied, and buyers and growers do not
have harmonious ideas ON the subject.
Theywill probably range in the nei igh-
borhood of five cents per layer, in the
sweat box. a
