Tho wonder. OF Reproduct,on.

Aphides are species of minute in
sect belonging to the order of
Heuiptera, suborder Homoptera,, and
taken collectively, 100 of them would
hardly weigh grain. Now, let US try
comparison. The average man, we
will say, weighs about 100000 grains.
Yet it has been found, by actual
calculation, that if these minute in
sects were left unchecked to only the
tenth generation the descendants of a
single pair would be equivalent, in
point of actual weight, to 10000 very
heavy men. This would be equal to
one-third of the population of the
globe, supposing each person to weigh
an AVERAGE Of ESQ pounds.

Diamonds discovered In Georgia.

Mr.. E. T. Whatley, assistant state &c.

recently discovered on the farm Of Mr..

Mr.. Whatley made the second discov-

FOUR KILLED IN FIVE HOURS.

Intense Excitement mt Dcnison, Tex, Over
the Murder Of Your Women-No Clcw to
the Criminal.
DENIsoN, Tex, May 10.-Tuesday
night was a night of horror in Denison.
Between IL p. IN. and $3.50 q. m. IN nS'
sassin, unknown, brutally and pre-
meditatedly shot and killed four women,
two of them leaders of local society
and two of them inmates OF dis
reputable houses.
The first victim was Mrs. Haynes, tho
wife Of Henry F. Haynes, one OF Deni-
sons most respected citizens, prominent
in business and social life. Mrs
Haynes, a young and very attractive
woman, was assassinated while alone in
her home, or else taken forcibly from 1t
and put to death by her captor just out
side and near the house.
The residence of DIR. Haynes is just
outside the city limits on Woodlawn
boulevard, two and one-half miles
southwest of the city hall.
Five hours later, in the very heart OF
the city, beautiful young lady, Miss
Teen Hawley, was also shot and killed
by some unknown person Miss Haw-
ley was killed almost without word
of warning, in the privacy of her room
in her mothers cottage home.
Between the hours when these foul
assassinations occurred, in still another
and far distant section of the city two
women were killed by an assassin's bull
let. These last two were inmates OF
bagnios.
The assassin shot and killed Mrs.
Haynes during the absence of her hus-
band at an Elk lodge. When his victim
was dead the murderer took her gold
watch and chain, diamond ring and ear
drops, and proceeded to the Hawley
residence, where he shot and killed
Miss Teen Hawley, who was seated ON
q bed with her mother when the assas-
sins bullet came through q screen.
The murderer had previously entered
the girls sleeping room, where she had
fed to her mother for protection.
The assassin then directed his steps
to the bagnio Of Madame Rivers, where
he fred from the front porch through
window, killing Maude Kramer. After
this he crossed to the next street, where
he mortally wounded Rose Stewart,
who was about to retire to her room ut
Madame Williams. This fatal shot was
fired from the sidewalk, the ball enter
ing beneath the right arm.
These four foul murders have created
intense excitement, which is increased
by the fact that there is no clew to the
criminal. Hundreds of armed men are
searching for the murderer, aiding the
sheriff and county officers. Blood
hounds have been brought into service,
but SO far without success. Several ar
rests on suspicion have been made, but
the guilty man is believed to be still at
large.

UNCLE AND NEPHEW.


Without any great effort on Arthur
Dunbar's part, he was enabled to catch
glimpse of the speakers, for the seats
of the porch projected beyond its con-
fines, and the figures were sitting in the
broad glare Of the moonlight.
One was undoubtedly Leon dEstre-
vile; the other, a dark, swarthy, for
eign-looking man about forty years OF
age. They were conversing in the
French language, with the usual reck-
lessness Of persons speaking their own
tongue in a foreign country, but were
reckoning without their host, for Arthur
Dunbar understood every word they
said.
"And you think the young American
in your road? Well, we must get rid OF
him, the older man was saying.

you have failed"
