The Buffalo Bug.

The destructive bug which does so much
damage in many sections OF the country
is the grub of the buffalo beetle. 1t is a
minute hairy creature that largely devours
wool. and is said to eat cotton, papers. or
anything in its way. 1t generally is found
in dark corners or cracks. 1t always ap-
pears the next season. if the eggs and
grubs have not been destroyed, in exactly
the same place it did before. The beetle
emerges from the pupa state in April. flies
out the window, but soon returns to lay
its eggs, which soon hatch into the little
pest that feeds upon your carpets.
The beetle is a strict vegetarian and
feeds on the spired and other plants. 1t
only feeds on wool while it is grub Prof
Lintner, our State entomoloigst, has found
benzine more effective in destroying this
grub than anything else. Treat all parts
of the carpet where the bug has appeared
before thoroughly with benzine early in
April, and again in July and August if
there are any signs of It's temperance
1t is without doubt the most difficult of all
household pests to get rid Of, because it
entirely disappears from the house while it
is beetle, and one can never feel sure
whether it has gone forever or only for
the season.

Worlds Temperance Congress.

From August 5th to 18th Worlds
Temperance Congress will be held in
Chicago composed OF representatives of
all Temperance and religious bodies from
all nationalities. 1t will probably be the
most notable temperance gathering ever
held, not only because it will be SO widely
but because Of the scope
included in the subjects Of discussion. A
part of the time the congress will be di-
vided into sections in order to give OPP
portunity for the diverse number of top
les to be considered. Upon the program
are men of world wide regulations, those
who have given lifetime to the careful
study of social problems. Practical work.
ers in temperance lines will present the
result of their experience and observa-
ton. 1t can be readily seen how valuable
this congress will be to every one en-
gagged in temperance work. Had the
worlds congress occurred fifteen years
ago it would hardly have included the
subject of temperance. The fact that it is
considered Of sufficient importance to &C.
cupy four days Of attention, clearly shows
the advance made in temperance since the
crusade. The Headlight.

good prices for their stock.

ing no material change from those quoted
last week
Veal calves-The supply was lighter than
last week Owing to this fact rather than to
any superiority ofrquality, prices showed a
tendency toward being little stronger than
those of last week. Trade opened up active,
and soon after the stock had been yarded they
was effected.
Swine-Values were quoted from 8 40 el4c.

The dog registration law has revealed
some peculiar things. One man who gets
90 cents day working in a cotton
mill has nine children and five dogs
but not pig or hen. Another party
takes in washing to support two female
dogs with their respective filters OF pups and
looks to the town to assist her in living.

Sweet corn for family use should be
planted almost every week until July,
that there may be succession for the
table until the frost kills the corn, but
market gardeners say their best profits are
usually obtained from the second plant
ing and from late planting. The first
planting may prove most profitable if hot
weather comes on suddenly, in three or
four days after the seed has been put in
the ground, or just after the seed has
sprouted in the damp earth, and there
comes no frost to put it back after it gets
out of the ground. This is sort of a
lottery which most of them try every year,
and in which they sometimes win.

As there are more ways than one to Kill
a cat besides cutting off its head, SO there
are more ways Of being cruel to dumb ami
mails than overlooking or beating them.
How any one, even in the name Of econ
omy, can put dumb animals on such short
rations as to cause the keenest hunger,
if not actual suffering, is more than can
comprehend. This is frequently done
and without complaint. Often such in
stances are. only known to the nearest
neighbors, and they do not like to COM
plain to the proper authorities, although
we have laws on our statute books to
punish such offenders.

What to do with scorched places on
cloth is question that sometimes puzzles
the careful housewife. If the scorch is
not too bad, dipping the article in soap
suds and hanging it in the sun for some
hours will be likely to remove it. If the
day is dull, hang the pieces before CRATE
fire. Scorched spots that are very bad
require strong solution of borax.
Repeated clippings in this, with exposure
to sun or fire light, will remove what are
by most housekeepers considered hope
less discolorations.

A FRACTURED SKULL.
George Royals Injury May Cut Short
His Life.
j. 3. Patterson, Railroad Shop En-
plOye, Arrested, But Released
on Bail.

\ young man named George Royal is
lying at his home with a fractured skull
as the result of a blow he received yester-
day afternoon from heavy iron rule
welded by one J. j. Patterson.
The latter is an employe in the railroad
company's lumberyard at the depot. as
was young Royal up to three days ago,
when lie resigned rather than work in
the gang of men of whom Patterson was
a sort of Overseer.
Yesterday afternoon Royal was passing
through the yard, when he encountered
Patterson. They had some words, and
Royal freely told Patterson what he
thought of him and declared his ability to
whip him.
They finally came to hostilities, and
Patterson seized a heavy rule used in
measuring lumber and struck Royal on
the head, knocking him senseless. The
blow took effect behind one of his ears.
Nichols, who attended Royal. that his
skull was fractured. Royal is said to
have been somewhat under the influence
of liquor at the time the trouble oc-
Cured.
Patterson was arrested by officer Kripp
and Special Goods, and locked up, The
prisoners home is at Oak Park, where he
has a family. He insists that ROYAL an
noyed him and attempted to assault him.
The injured youth was removed from
the Receiving Hospital to his home.
where he was resting comparatively easy
last night.
Late last night Patterson was released
on bail and allowed to go home to his
family.

Why 1t Refuses to Produce kilograms
Sent to an Agent of Gregory

An alternative writ of mandate was
yesterday issued by Judge Catlin, on the
petition fthe Gregory Brothers Com

graph Company to produce in court on
August LIST all Geographic messages

Company and A. G. Martin Il Co., all
doing business in Denver, Col, and who
are regular customers of the petitioners.
1t seems that Simpson is in the employ
of Gregory Bros, and that on the 9th of
the present month, while in the employ
of the petitioners. he was instruc ted to
telegraph to f. NJ. Leonard 4 Co., the G.
q. Llebhardt Commission Company and
"A. q. Martin n Co., in his own name
with reference to transactions between
Gregory Bros. Company and G. II. Keys
~ Co., and with reference to the indebted
ness of the said firm to them.
Between that date and the 18th of the
month Simpson transmitted messages
through the Pacific Postal to the above
named firms, which messages were signed
by Simpson as agent for Gregory
Brothers Company, and that Simpson
also received messages in the same man

firms and Gregory Brothers.
Simpson Is at present out of the State,
and although the petitioners are anxious
to know the contents OF the kilograms
addressed to him, concerning their bust
ness, the telegraph company refuses to
give them up, for the reason that the tele-
grams are addressed to Simpson, and not
to Gregory Brothers.
Therefore. in order to ln9rr tbo oop
