IN SOCIAL REVIEW.
Wednesday Night Entertainments
Assembly Ball-Milkmaid's Con-
ventiOn Success-MOtOr
Whist Club.

The Assembly club ball at the
Murphy ball, was a success. The
peculiar innovation was that the
gentlemen acted as escorts as usual,
but the ladies managed the ball, Sc
lecling the dances, choosing their
own partners, and filling their own
programs. AT first they were afraid
they would be too basbful but by a
heroic effort overcame this and found
it real nice to dispose of their fayors
at their own sweet will. The more
popular gentlemen were embarrassed
with applications to dance and had
to use wise discretion not to offend
the Hippolyte's of the ball room.
Some of the gentleman found It a
little inconYenient to be seated and
patiently await the arrival of their
next engagement, for the ladies
would congregate to gossip in the
cloak room, leaving their partners
to adorn the walls during the waits.

Two Buried Cities.

In the first century after Cl list
there stood near the beautiful Bay of
Naples two cities, Herculaneum and
Pompeii, which were noted through
all the Roman world for their fashion
able luxury. In the year 70, duIIng a
tremendous eruption of Vesuvius these
cities disappeared from human
view as completely as Sodom and Go.
morrah. 1t was commonly reported
that both cities were overwhelmed
with food of molten lava, and the
occurrence has been vividly portrayed
by Bulwer in 1.-The Last Days of Pom
peii.'' March "a, 1877, the ruins of
Herculaneum were discovered, and 1T
was then found that this city had been
destroyed by an immense flood OF
water which carried along enormous
quantities of mud, tufa and ashes.
This explains in some degree, why SO
few people escaped from Herculaneum
while thousands had time TO Zee from
Pompeii, which was buried first
under a gradual shower of ashes.

MADISON, Wis, MARCH 18th, 1892.
To Farmers residing IN localities in.
tested Nth The Chihch Bug during
the Summer Of 1891.
The chinch bug (BiiStuS teHcopterus)
may be expected to appear the coming
season in localities that were infested
with it last season. The later brood
OF this insect passes the winter in the
winged state, under rubbish, in corn
shocks and straw piles, under boards
and among dead leaves in the woods;
most abundant. usually, around the
the borders of woods. From these
lurking places, such insects as survive
the winter emerge in April and May
POSSIBLY sooner if the season opens
early and, after pairing, lay their eggs
in May and June in grain and corn
fields. Each female insect is believed
capable of laying five hundred eggs,
and it is from these eggs that the in
furious attack proceeds. Such being
the case, it is clear that in proportion
as we are able to destroy the insects
before they emerge from their winter
hiding places, so far we can reduce
this danger of serious attack the
coming season.
1t is therefore recommended that in
districts infested by chinch bugs last
season, all areas that would naturally
serve as alternating place for the bee.
ties, such as the borders of fields, weed
infested spots, thickets and the bor-
ders of wood lots be burned over, so
far as this is practicable, as early this
spring as the ground becomes dry and
that all brush, straw and rubbish piles
and corn shocks in or about infested
fields be promptly and thoroughly de-
strOyed by burning.
The more Thoroughly this recommend
alton is put into practice the less wtH
be the danger Of serious attack Of
chinch bugs the coming season.
