Prevent Sunday Opening.
The expected bill for an injunction to pre-
vent Sunday opening OF the Worlds Fair was
filed on behalf OF the government OF the
United States District Attorney Milchrist in
the federal Circuit Court on the eth The
district attorney does not ask for a temporary
injunction and consequently the case will not
be argued until next week.
Mr., MIlchrist preferred 10 wait until Chief
Justice Fuller arrived in the city. The chief
justice will probably hear the case with two
Judges of the Circuit Court.
The bill says the Chicago Worlds Fair cor
poration at the dedication October r. 1892,

session and control OF the National commits
sion Of the United States. 1t was provided
In the act OF August 8, 1892, that all appro-

first day of the week, commonly called Sun
day, and that IL appropriations should be ac-
cepted by the exposition, 1t was made the
duty of the National commission to make
such rules or modification of the rules OF the
local corporation as would secure the cIosing

that Sunday rule made by the directors in
October was modified by the commission, and
provided explicitly for "thc closing of the
exposition and the gates thereof on Sunday.
This rule 1t is claimed In the bill is still in
force, and neither the commission nor the
directory, together or sevcrally, have power
to ubrogate It, The bill says the contemplate

Some agricultural editor has been investl-
eating the subject OF fruit diseases, aud csti-
mates according to the census of 1880. that
the insect pests cost the fruit growers OF the
United States at least S4,0OO,COO per year.
He further reckons that at least sevcnty-fve
per cent. of this annual loss can he prevented
by the proper use Of Insecticides This is
very bad showing. yet 1t may not be very far
from the actual facts. In every section of
the country the insect pests are numerous
and much destruction is brought about by
neg igcnce on the part Of the fruit growers.
Spraying pumps cost but little and the ma
tcrial necessity for spraying an acre Ia not
very costly. 1t is time our fruit growers
we're awakening to the necessity of protect
ing their own interests and adopting measures
that will prevent this annual loss. Now is
the time for action. In few weeks 1t will
be too late. Examine the orchards carefully
and prepare to wage an iucessant warfare up
on the Goblin moth. curculio and borers.
This Is the only avenue of escape. II every
fruit grower would heed the warning this
spring and battle against this common foe
the pests the fruit crop Of 1888 would be
abundant and Of first quality. Let the war
fare begin.

The Securities Found.

On Monday last the Sheriff broke
open the strong box of the Peoples
Bank and found $4,000 in bonds
of the Hooking and Western r. r.
Whether these bonds were pur-
chased by the Bank or deposited
in the strong box for safe keeping
is not known.
The bonds are wholly worthless,
the Hooking and Western being
an exploded enterprise proposed to
connect Floodwood in Athens Co.,
and Columbus, via of the Raccoon
coal mines.
The parties having the project
in charge did considerable work of
preliminary character in the way
of surveys, purchase of rights of
way and taking of options on coal
lands along its proposed line from
Floodwood to Starr.
The work was under the control
of w. H. Jennings and -- Carr,
formerly of the G. II. V. & T. road
G. V. Culver, brother of the Presi-
dent of the Bank.
All this seems to indicate that
the Peoples Bank was furnishing
the money expended in the enter
prise.
If the bonds are owned by the
bank, there is no evidence, in the
absence of the books and Mr.. Cul-
yer, of the amount of money adj
vanced on them.
All agree that the paper on which
they are printed would be much
more valuable if it was white.
AS it is, no creditor will be any
the richer for the find.

not, by any means justify the as
