PAssAIC, \. j., Aug. 3.-As many as
$500 operatives are now in state of
enforced idleness for part or the
whole of their time. The Passaic Print
works, employing 600 hands, has been
closed for several weeks and the Pante-
sote Leather Co. has given notice of
two weeks shut down to its 100 men.
In the Manhattan Print works work
has almost ceased and the New York

hundreds of men weekly. The other

any Worsted mill and Reid & Barry's
Print works, which between them en-
ploy 5000 hands, most of whom are
working over time.

Wrecked by Revengeful Ex- EmpIoye.
ROME, Jan. 22.-Dynamite bombs. were
exploded almost simultaneously this after
noon before the Hotel d'Angleterre and in
the garden of the proprietor's house in
Niasa Claudio. The hotel was partly
wrecked. Nobody was injured, al
though the hotel had more than 100
lodgers at the hour OF the explosion.
At first the front wall was expected to fall!
After an examination. however, the COM
missary announced that there was no inn
mediate danger and that the dodgers might
return and pack their trunks. Several
women refused to return, and their belong
ings were cared for by the police. Before
evening the guests had all left for other
hotels.
The proprietor said this evening that the
hotel and its contents We're almost total
loss. Not whole piece of furniture was
left in the building. The walls of the
houses near the hotel were cracked and all
the windows in Viasa Claudio were more
or less damaged. All the windows
were smashed for 100 yards on every
side. No walls were cracked, how
ever, and but for the breakage of glass
ware, crockery and furniture, little harm
was done. Nobody was injured. as the
family had left home for the afternoon.
Immediately after the explosion a report
went abroad that the anarchists were
again at work. The proprietor of the Hotel

WINGED that both explosions were caused

LIFE HISTORY OF CCTWORMs,
Three Important Methods OF Checking
Damage by the Fests.

There are few garden pests that are
more exasperating in their manner of do
ing damage than the cutworms. A
choice tomato plant, perhaps of new
variety, half-dozen young cabhages,
two or three young squashes near to-
gether, are found lying pEostrate in the
morning, when they were upright and
health the evening before. 1t is easy to
see that their stems have been cut off near
the surface of the ground during the night,
but no other signs of the depredator are
visible. Sometimes by poiing the earth
away from the roots of the plant one can
find dirty brown worm, locking like in
the cut. This is the cutwoym, thu author
of the mischief. and represented in the
sketch much enlarged.
There are many species OF these cut
worms, and they attack a variety of field
and garden crops. They are all young or
Larvae of medium sized, night flying moths,
one of which is representa- i after q figure

moths deposit their eggs generally on
the twlgs or branches of trees
and shrubs, and the Larvae soon
hatch and descend to the around, where
they feed upon grass or slower. They
become about half grown bg the time win

under boards or rubbish o. burrow into

in spring come out of their hiding places
In a famished condition. They begin feed
ing soon as possible, and attack a variety
of plants, such as cabbages, tomatoes, tur-
nips, squashes, melons, Germ, oats and
others.
In the garden they commonly gnaw of
the stems and leave the plants on the
ground, though occasionally they eat the
whole plant. Late in sprinz, or early in
summer they become full grown as
worms. Then they make themselves hoi-
low cells III the soil and change to the
pupa or chrysalis state. Two or three
weeks later they again change this time
coming forth as adult mO1hs. In some
species there are two bro0ds each season,
and in others there Is but one.

Some seasons they are vers' destructive,
while at other times their INJURIES may
attract no attention. This Is doubtless
due TO the various enemies cutworms
have TO contend with. They are preyed
upon by birds. toads. frogs and preda-
ceous beetles. They are attacked by many
kinds of internal parasites a:Id are subject

NEW YoRK, Jan. PA Berlin cable
says: The forerunner of his imperial
highness. the czarowitch. has arrived
twenty-four hours before the great event
rnaterializes which sets all Berlin talking.
The story going the rounds with reference
to the cZarowitch is that it IS the cars
desire to make a dicker with the kaiser to
fight nihilism and socialism. In con-
nection with this the following story is re-
lated which points to revival of the
nihilists:
The st. Petersburg central committee
Of the nihilists, il is said, ordered some
three months ago that one of their men,
bers, an aristocrat, young and noted for
his manly beauty and refinement, en-
gage in an intrigue with the wife of Gen.
Frowdeinki, the shining light Of the politi-
cal house of the car. whose duty it is TO
watch the international league of
nihilists and socialists. The comrade did
honor to the confidence which his
friends extended him, and on November
10 he eloped with the generals wife from
st. Petersburg, the woman having first
provided herself with 1900 roubles from
her husbands safe. They travelled
through various parts of Europe. stopping
finally at Fiume. They no sooner pu: up
at a hotel when cipher dispatch or
dered them to- return at once to
Kief. This was on January 5.
The nihilist. though, thinking it
strange that his comrades recalled him so
quickly and demanded him to thus put
himself into imminent danger of capture,
followed the summons and with the
generals wife re-entered Russia. They
had no sooner crossed the frontier when
number OF police officers in citizens
dress entered the carriage and informed
them that they were prisoners OF state.
At their arrival in Kieff they were at
once confronted by Gen. Frowdeinki and
subjected by him to rigid cross-examina-
ton. The generals wife, on seeing her
husband, assumed a defiant attitude and
said, II am nihilist, and /
will not reveal one single word of what
know" The general tried his best to move
her. but on receiving only defiant answers
finally got SO enraged that he drew his
sword and plunged it into his wife's heart,
killing her instantly. The nihiiist was
carried off to st. Petersburg, where he is
now imprisoned.

over the reconciliation Of Milan and Ma

each other in expressing congratula-
tons and good wishes. Young King
Alexander telegraphed to Els parents that
the announcement Of the: reconciliation
was the pleasantest news ever received by
him, and afforded him the best day of his
life. Many letters and kilograms Of con-
graduation have been received by the
king and parents from foreign courts. In
court circles it is said the reconciliation
was due to the pleaaings Of the
son, but this is not credited gen.
orally, as the whole affair is
believed to have been the achievement OF
diplomatists of Russia, wisich found the
absence of such good friead as Natalie a
detriment to its interests. Milan has
been Russianized by securing loan from
st. Petersburg. and his return to Natalie
is believed to have followed directly On
the promise of further pay nents from the
same source.
The question as to the necessity of an
other marriage ceremony has been much
discussed. The divorce was not accepted
as valid by Natalie, although Milan has
always maintained that i. was complete

was sanctioned by law, it probably will
stand and another wedding will be nsces-
