HE HUNTED BUGS.
RETURN OF ALFRED KOEBLE FROM
THE AUSTRALIAN COLONIES.
He Has Secured a Parasite to Offset
the Scale Bug Infesting the
Fruit Trees of Cali
fornia.

Alfred Koeble, after several months'
sojourn in the colonies, returned Thurs
day morning from Sydney, on the
Steamer Mariposa, to San Francisco.
Mr.. Koeble was employed by the state
to go to Australia and obtain parasite
for the elimination of the scalebug on
fruit trees. When seen, the gentleman
said that he was not ready to be inter-
viewed until he made his report to Sec
retary Lelong of the horticultural COM
mission, tomorrow. Suffice it to say,
however, that he made success OF his
visit and obtained that for which he
went.
81 have been constantly on the 90"
said Mr.. Koeble, land have found
what l wanted. l have been pretty
much through Australia, and have spent
some time in FIJI, New Caledonia, New
Zealand and other places, and during
my sojourn at those places have ex-
amined the fruit trees and the vines"
"How do the vines compare with
ours?"
"Some of them very we'll. They make
very fair wine over there"
Are the vines troubled with phyl-

eyes, considerably. The people in
Australia never think of putting on a
resisting force against the pest. They
simply root up the vines to stop the
spread, but their object is rarely ac-
complished.
SIS the cocoanut blight in the south
seas very serious? ?"
cit is, for the reason that no attempt
is being made to check it. In Fiji,
Samoa, Tongatabu and other places in
close proximity, all the trees are look
ing very badly. The pest is a email
moth which eats into the trees, drying
them up and spelling the fruit. 1t
could be checked by the application of
a parasite. The scale bug, which we
have to fight here, has attacked all the
fruit trees"

For the medals the following members
also shot, with the scores as follows
Privates Bell, 2; Sproule, 80; Wash
burn, 33; and Winans, 3S. After rife
practice a number of the company
members met at their armory for the
purpose of packing their goods for
camp. The way the boys worked, it is
safe to say that company G is all pre-
pared to attend camp in good shape,
their cooking utensils. dishes, tents
and camp furniture being all
packed and marked ready to ship for
Ventura. Captain Meyer is working
hard to have good attendance at camp,
and from latest reports it looks as if
there would be big roll call on the first
day in camp. The captain is making
special efforts to persuade the employ
ers of members of his company to grant
them leave of absence during camp, and
is apparently meeting with good success,
especially among the merchants, who
have the interest of the National Guard
at heart. All the members have been
furnished with hats, leggings and can
teens, which will give the company a
strictly military appearance, when they
march to the depot.

HE WAS STRICTLY IN 1T.
THE ARRIVAL OF TRIPLETS IN A
HOPE-sTREET MANOR.
A Surprise Party That Has Not Hereto
fore Been Reported in the So
ciety Columns of the
Local Papers.

There is gentleman living on Hope
street whose family has lately been in
creased by several new members. The
way the thing came about was thus
wise: The services of an accoucheur and
nurse had been called into requisition
for certain evening, as an addition to
the family contingent was hourly ex-
pected.
Pater familias-that-was-t -to-be, was on
the tenterhooks of anticipation, and as
he had been carefully secluded from the
chamber where his better half was to
go through her ordeal, his anxiety can
be we'll imagined. He walked the hall
with feverish step, suspense causing him
to increase or decrease his gait, as
thoughts of varied nature struck him.
Ere long, however, the nurse tripped
down the stairs and comforted the lord
of the manor with the pleasing tiding
that son and heir had just arrived,
lusty and kicking. Pater made rush
for the telephone and helloed the glad
news to number Of friends.
He was upon the point Of replacing
the audiphone into its nickel-plated
rack when the nurse once more tripped
down the stairs, and
"It's boy, cir; congratulate you!o
"Oh you said that before! It's all
right"
"This is another"
another! Another? Well, well.
Times are 80 with me that can afford
it. Good boy, Ed," and he patted him
self mentally on the back.
Then he made another rush for the
telephone and pretty soon his friends
had the news pat that there were twins
at the c. castle. Pater then invited
himself to cocktail la Suisse. and,
wiping the perspiration on his brow off
with one hand, he lifted the glass to his
willing lips and drank down the tooth
some draught, while wishes for the sue
cess of the TWINS welled up from the
bottom Of his heart.
Aa the cocktail and the wishes met
each other half way in his anatomy, a
noise caused him to turn around. There
was the nurse, looking him sternly in
the face. She, too, was perspiring, but
whether she needed cocktail or not, is
not on record.
7. "Oh yes." said Ed, trying to be jocu-
lar, "It's boy. AS remarked some
time ago, you said that before 70
"That's what I said, and 1 say it
again, see ?"
Every funny, very funny, am sure.
but monotonous How many does that
make now?"A
"Three."
What Three? For Heavens sake,
quit your fooling."
II said it, and amt agoing to take
it back for no man. Sir, its triplets.'
With groan and the agonized excla-
nation: "And then they say I'm not
in it, ," paterfamilias fed into the coal
cellar, and was not coaxed out until he
heard the trio upstairs trying "Non E
Ver." Itwas a little out of tune, but
it brought him to time.

tives. He criticised the Liberal pro.
gramme as obscure. indefinite and full of
empty promises. The Radicals were
especially ready to assure the voters they
could obtain measures at the expense of
their neighbors and the eight command
ant Libers appeared to rely on the creation
OF parish councils as a means to improve
the condition OF laborers by adding IN
terest to the village.
The evil arising from multiplied local
bodies was overlooked by advocates of
parish councils. He commented on
Chamberlain's old age insurance measure
aud said he was hopeful this scheme would
remedy the distress prevailing among the
working classes. 1t would be effective,
however, only when carried out on sound
business principals. Another remedy
for relieving distress was the creation of
small rural holdings. which, the govern
meut trusted, would confer a great ad.

poorer classes. Ireland, however, re
manned the burning question of the hour,
on which would rest not only the next
election. but perhaps others, and be

DENVER, Feb. 2.-The excitement at

Rio Grande railway, is intense. People
are iocking there from all parts of the
country and largo cities of rough board
houses have sprung up in a short time.
The mines are something wonderful and
almost equal those of Leadville in its best
days. David III. Moffat today was offered

bond the Holy Moses mine at Creole, bu.
refused to do so. Since the first prospect

SAVANNAH, Feb. 2.-Watchman Love,
at the Commercial Guano works, was set
upon by burglars and shot to death a
little after midnight. The fusilade
attracted the attention of the officers.
When they reached the spot they found
Love dead, a dozen bullets in his body,
and no trace of the perpetrators. This
tragedy following so close upon that Of
one week ago, in which August Meyer
was slain by burglars. has greatly stirred
up the city. Five men were arrested and
indicted for the murder of Meyer, and
three women are held as witnesses. A
mass meeting was held at which a com
mitiee was appointed to wait on Judge
Falligant and notify him of the public
discomfort with the slowness OF the courts.
He assured them that prompt measures
would be taken. The tragedy of last
night. under circumstances so similar to
that of the Saturday night before as to
look like a duplication of it, is regarded
as a challenge from the criminal elements,
which will be promptly taken up. The
outcome will be a law and order league
whose fiat will be as swift as it will be
effective.

free Coinage Bill Discussed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The Demo-
cratic caucus, which was to have been
called for Friday evening next to consider
the silver question. has been abandoned
for the present at least. Harter of Ohio,
who was the Leading spirit in circulating
the call. said today: II have decided not
to push the caucu for the reason the
Democratic opinion is changing very
rapidly, not Only upon tho wisdom of
passing a silver bill but upon the merits
of the question. While last Thursday
nine out of ten men would have predicted
a free silver bill would pass the house,
today l venture the opinion that no bill
providing for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver will pass this session"
The most earnest of the free silver peo-
Pile recognize the fact that a free silver
plank in a platform would break the
party in two and that he would rave to
say good bye to New England, to the
Middle states and TO such states as Wis
c%onsin, Illinois. Iowa and Michigan.
Leading German pa pers IN this country

Bland, in an interview later, said, in
part: "Harter has ascertained to his sat.
isfaction that the Democratic party can
not be bulldozed by national bankers or
the money power of this country. In
stead OF there being a chance against the
free coinage bill. the chances are all the
other way, The party says now il we
don't pass a free silver bill we will be
stultifying ourselves and our record in the
last congress. This house will pass a free
coinage bill and the country can rest as
sured of it Ii the Democrats again act
the part of dupllcity on this question and
permit the Republicans to again step iu
front of them, they will not only lose the
presidency, but, beyond all question. the
