They betoOk themselves, with other
representatives of the league, tOL london,
and established, close to Thames street,
a house called the Steelyard, which
f1OuriShed for upward of three centu-
ries. Meanwhile the population in
creased rapidly Ill ViSby, and the
variety OF religions called for the cree
ton of numerous churches and relig-
ious buildings. Charitable guilds and
hospitals were also established. The
monks, after their wont. helped to
beautify the town by planting walnut,
chestnut, lime and mulberry trees, some
of which still thrive. But the chief
charm of Visby lies in its gray walls,
which, as specimen of ancient fOrtifi-
cation, are almost unique.
GOtland, in the old days, was pros
porous and important center; but little
remains of its former greatness. The sole
existing trace of former independence
is standing army, which belongs eX-
clusively to the island, and can only be
employed in its defense. Every Got.
lander, from the age of eighteen to that
of fifty or sixty, may be called upon to
serve. The active services of the army
are unlikely to be called upon. Yet OF
so much i'm pOrtance is the is.

ton and natural defenses, that
a strategic point Of view from it might
readily be made a paddock upon the

even been declared that by means OF
Gotland the Russian navy could be
locked up and the navigation Of the

Stenography Has Its Terrors.
Boston CLIQUE.

Boston Globe.
Years ago John Sherman, of Ohio,no
senator, went out to Kansas as a COM
missioner with others to investigate
certain lawless proceedings IN that
section.
In the course of the investigation one
long-whiskered, bepistoled native, who
was before the commission, began to ex-
press himself with prOfane fOrcefulness,
and Mr.. Sherman requested the official
stenographer to take down the remarks
of the gentleman from Kansas. MIR.
Sherman then let the angry citizens go
on until he had had his say.
Nov, look here" said MI. Sherman,
''do you know you have been making
yourself liable TO prosecution by what
you have said?"
The speaker didn't care blankety
blank if he had.
We'll, do you know what you have
said?" inquired Mr.. Sherman.
mo, don't, and nobody else does:
but Eve said it and stand by it."
Mr.. Sherman called on the stenog-
rapher to read his notes, and the stenog-
rapher did so. AS this vile language
rolled out the Kansan looked puzzled at
first. Then he became frightened.
LET me see that" he asked, nervous
ly. The photographer handed him the
notes. For minute or more he gazed
at the strange stenographic characters.
"Snakes, by -p' he yelled. and.
dropping the book, he bolted out of the
place.

TO KILL CHINCH BUGS,
Prof Otto Lugger Will Spread
Disease Among Them,

The destruction of chinch bugs by in
oculation is not exactly new idea.
Some five years ago Prof. Otto Lugger,
the state entomologlst, al the state eX-
pertinent station, discovered the exist
ence of what in scientific phrase is de-
nominated entOmOpnthora. IL is
claimed that this is soTtof disease that
is fatal to destructive insects. 1t is in
fictitious but experience teaches that it
soon dies out. Experiments have been
made by inoculating the chinch bugs,
and the effect has been marvellous. The
disease spreads among chinch bugs like
smallpox with the aborigineS.
Prof. Lugger was at the capitol yes
terday, and he confirmed the report
made the day before by Col. Bobleter
that chinch bugs are playing sad havoc
in Blue Earth and Brown counties, as
reported in these columns yesterday.
Prof. Lugger goes further and states
that the pests are spreading through
the southern tier of counties, and the
crops are menaced until the damage
cannot be estimated should nothing be
done to rid the territory of the devOur-
ing bugs. Through correspondence
and reports he has ascertained that in
Kansas, where the plague has been eX-
ceedin gly bad in the past, the legiS-
lature made a large appropriation
for the cultivation of entomophthora,
and it is the purpose of the
profes sor to visit Kansas at once
with large number of jars of chinch
bugs, and there he will inoculate them,
and. bringing them to the infected fields
of Minnesota, turn them loose to spread
the disease. If it works, as the profess
sor has every reason to believe, accord
Ing to his assurances, by another year
the section will be entirely rid of the
pests. Otherwise the crops are likely
to be destroyed next year, for the bugs
multiply with alarming rapidity. He
does not apprehend that the chinch bugs
will do SO much damage to the present
crops, for the harvest will soon be OH,
although the corn fields may be stripped.
Next year, however, farming would be-
come losing industry if the experiment
fails.
Prof. Lugger left last evening for
Kansas with his catch of bugs, and he
will return in a week or so, and then
the experiment of spreading the disease
will be undertaken in earnest, and the
result will be eagerly watched.

Albany Argus.
A little incident that happened not
long since in Harmanus Blocker hall
caused deal of smiling among those in
the Immediate vicinity. A deaf old
gentleman, we'll known and much re-
spected in all circles in the city, and a
young lady were the actors. The two
were engaged in sort of conversation.
The young lady would say things two
or three times to the old gentleman,
who would at last hear and answer.
One time the young lady, while they
were talking about fruit and their likes
and dislikes, said to the old gentleman
in an ordinary tone: DO you like ba-
nanas?" The old gentleman didn't
catch it, so be smiled and said: WHAT"
The young lady repeated her question
in slightly louder tone, but still the
old gentleman didn't understand. The
young lady then bent over close to
the ear of the old gentleman and
said in tone that could have
been heard four rows away: do you
like bananas" The old gentleman
seemed to understand, and yet was sur
prised. He in turn bent over toward
the young lady and said to her in quite
a loud tone: mo, like the old-fash-
Toned night shirts best" A quiet litter
went around among those in the imme-
diate vicinity. The young lady blushed
furiously aG the idea that she had been
understood as asking the old gentleman
how he liked the new-fangled pajamas.

RAILWAY MEN AT PLAY.
Annual Picnic of Great Northern
EmpIoYes at Spring Park.

1t was a mammoth picnic-that at
Spring Park, Minnetonka, yesterday.
There were on the picnic grounds in
the afternoon, when all had ar
rived, not less than $500
people, perhaps more, employees
of the Great Northern rail-
way, with their wives and families, or
their best girls, as the case might be.
But notwithstanding it was so large a
crowd, it was an orderly one, for as
committeeman expressed it, "There was
plenty to eat and not much TO drink"
The crowd went out from st. Paul in
the morning in two trains of eleven
coaches each, drawn by engines whose
gay decorations had been matter of
considerable care with painstaking en-
glneerS. The sides of the cars, too,
were placarded with big announcements
of the fourth annual picnic. Within half
an hour after the crowd reached the
lake all the row boats i'll the Spring
Park boat house and all the bathing
suits were out, showing where part of
the crowd passed the time; others, who
had Lake Minnetonka Navigation COM
parry tickets, took rides on the Alert or
Lotus or on the City of st. Louis, all of
which were running yesterday. Others
found the dancing pavilion most at
tractlve, where 10 dances were tripped
to the music of the German A merican
band. Husbands and their families
found sufficient enjoyment in lying in
the cool shade of the trees. All those
athleticly inclined paid strict attention
10 the programme of sports, which was
varied and long enough to satisfy any
one.
There were thirty contests, some of
the winners being as follows: Ball

OF all the big and little picnics at
Minnetonka yesterday none was jollier
than that of the employees of the Chlca-
go, st. Paul, Minneapolis & Oma-

tenth annual outing of the kind and was
held on Excelsior commons. The pic
nickers came out in twelve special
coaches on the Chicago, Mil

the day in typical picnic
style. The programme of sports con-
