There are more ants to the square mile

he saw the army ants do in India whilethe
man was sitting on the earth for a few
minutes beside him.
But the Florida ants will take out the
lettuce and other minute seeds from the
soil in which they are planted and actually
destroy the beds. They will suck the life
out of acres OF young cucumbcrs and melon
plants, uproot strawberry plants or cover
the buds with earth to such an extent as to
kill them. They will get into pie, pickle,

PENNOYER'S CHRISTMAS LETTER
Oregon's Governor Appeals to tho Presi-
dent In Behalf of silver.


SALEM, Ore, Dec. Ex-Governor Pen
noyer yesterday addressed the following
letter to President Cleveland:
The extraordinary circumstances which
greet the return of this holiday must be
my excuse for writing you. Today is the
first Christmas in the history Of Oregon
where more than two-thrds of its people
are without employment and more than
one third are without sufficient means Of
support. Business is almost completely
stagnnted. The laws of congress which
have Disseminated against silver and
made gold alone full legal tender money,
giving to the money lender the privilege
of refusing both the silver dollar and
silver certificate, thus render unavailable
more than one-half of the national cur
rency az absolute debt paying money, are
the sole causes of the impending star
vation"
Governor Pennoyer then calls attention
to the planks of the Democratic platform
declaring for the use of both gold and sill
yer metal us standard money, and con
cludes:
You are a father, and you no doubt
feel grateful to God when you, upon re
firing to rest, look upon your sleeping
babies in their couches, the pictures OF
health, consequent upon their having

PEIXOTO AGGRESSIVE.
His Vessels to Force a Naval Bat

THE LATTER AFTER RECRUITS.

Gone to a Penal Colony, Whore He Hopes

His shIps-The Sichtheroy Starts After

PERNANBUco, Dec. 26.-The situation OF
affairs has very materially changed in this
city within the last few hours. Until yes
terday Pernambuco believed that its har-
Dor was to be the scene of the first big
naval battle between the Republioa Ad-
mirnl MellO's best wRrship and the Aqui-
daban, her companion rebel ship, on tho
Sne side, and the Nichtheroy, President
PeiNoto's dynamite gun cruiser, on the
other.
The news Just received changed the
whole aspect of affairs The rebel war
ships, 1t was then learned, We're not on
their way to Pernambuco. but, on the
contrary, had sailed towards the mount
ainous and rugged island of Fernando de
Nohonho, whore there is largo convict
settlement. The island, despite its rug
gedness possesses considerable fertility,
and its several harbors, defended by forts
would cnabo Mello TO make vigorous
resistanceif attacked.
The revolu tionary ndmiral's object in
going IN Fernando de Noronha, which is
over 100 miles from the main coast of
Brazil, is to compel as many able bodied
convicts ms he can find in the settlement
to go aboard his vessels and join their
crews 1t is said that he expects to secure
not less than loco men in this way
Upon the receipt of this news aboard
the Nichtheroy there was great activity
noticeable. Members OF the crew were
sent ashore in small boats to search
through the town for such of the Mich
theruy's men as had been allowed leave 10
land and 10 hurry them back to the YES
sci.
The commanding officer of the Mich
thcrov had apparently received full in,
structions as to how he should act in such
an emergency, and these instructions, il
is believed, were to the effect that If he
became convinced that the report of tho
coming to Pcrnamhuco of the Republica
and the Aquidpban proved to be untrue
and that these vessels, instead Of seeking,
were evading fight, he should lose no fur
ther time, but put to sea Mt once and
force them into a naval contest for su.
periority.
This view of the case proved TO be cor.
rect, for when all of the men belonging
to the NirhtLcroy crew had been gotten
aboard the government battlcship She
weighed anchor, steamed ont TO sea and
pointed her nose for the northeast.
The Associated Press correspondent is
reliably informed that the NiCht heroy's $
destination is the island of Fernando de
Noronha Il this information is correct
the long expected sea battle between thu
reyoutiuaist and the government war
vessels will in all probability be fought
within Il short time.

Rock Yesterday afternoon, whom the
robbed train arrived Seminole, the
scene OF the robbery, is a flag station, nine
miles south of Coifeyville, Kan. The
train reached Seminole Sunday night
shortly after dark The switch had been
turned, running the train on the side, and
the train Immediately came to n standstill.
When the train stopped two men
mounted the engine and began by robbng
Engineer Bush Harris of his watch and
$40 in cash. They then proceeded to the
mail cur and rihed the mail pouches. Mail
Clerk II, B. Pinckney, who was i'll charge,
was forced to deliver the registered pack
ages. Pinckney was relieved of his watch
and eighty-five cents in change, twenty
five cents of which was returned to him
to buy lunch.
An entrance to the express car was
gained without resistance on the part OF
the express messenger. as there was moth

ton to the coaches. Two men went
through the cars while the other two
maintained constant firing on the out
side The passengers had had ample or
portunity to secrcte their valuables, Very
little of value was obtained in the coaches.
The robbers appropriated all the oyercoats
and watches in the cars, but the sum
total of the cash they secured will ap-
/ proXimate less than $500 Several pms
sengers saved large sums by bidding their

! Both of the men who went through the
coaches were young men, neither being
over 90, and had the appearance of un.
sophisticated youths. When they went
through the sleepers they displayed an
utter ignorance of sleeping car berths.
The robbers did not Use abusive language
to the passengers, and offered no violence.
The train was held one hour and twenty
minutes. 1t is stated positively that the
railroad officials here have the names OF
the four robbers, and II is believed their
capture is only question of few days.
