years of age found his way into President
Depew's Office in the temporary absence OF

asked for a pass to Albany and return.
"Why should the New York Central carry

Slept with STANCE Company.
A gentleman who travelled in the rural
istricts of the west some years ago says
that to this day he has a creeping sensa-
ton" when he recalls his experience IN
spending the night at farm house. 1t
was late in the summer, and the farmers
were doing their threshing, while their
wives were emptying their ticks and refill
ing them with clean straw.
Just before dark the traveller reached
comfortable looking house, where hearty
welcome was accorded him when he asked
II he might stay all night. While eating
his supper he heard the farmers wife say
to her husband and son:
"The straw tick from the spare room
bed will have to be filled. / emptied 1t TO-
day and forgot all about it until this MIN

When the tired guest was shown to his
room he undressed hastily and ciimneo

THE LUNA MOTH.


A Beautiful Creature That Haunts the
Electric Lights.
Shadows OF fitting nocturnal things that
hover about the street electric lights are
seen, thrown upon street or pavement by
hundreds Of passcrs by who never know If
the creatures that cause them are bats,
moths or some smaller things whose near
ness to the light magnifes the fitting
shadow In fact, there are all Of these
creatures frequently lowering about the
lights, the bats, doubtless, in pursuit OF
some Of the tiny insect brood. while the
larger moths are drawn, like the minute in
sect swarms, about the light as a brilliant
object. Mr.. d W. G. Pond, Of Hartford,
Conn, showed a Hartford Times reporter a
beautiful green moth which his wife sue
