A BUG STORY.

A BUG STORY.
Mr.. P. L. Clayton, of Little River
township, war in town Tuesday. lie
says that in 1878, in September, he
passed by Mr.. G. r. Miller's who
was building a new house. He told
Miller if he built a house Of timber
cut in that month he would never
get clear of the bed bugs. Lewis
Turner was the first occupant Of
that house. His wife was the neat.
est OF housekeepera, scalding and
securing every week, but she was
able to subdoe the bed bugs.
The history OF that house Is that the
bed bugs have not been suGdued TO
this day.
Thomas Turner, who lives on the
Arch Andrews plantation I miles
from town. says if you viii cut a
pine in the tnll moon OF August, a
bug will ente: all the adjacent pines
killing the whole pine forest, whether
one acre Or ten acres.
Moore Faucette corroborates Mr..
Turner. He says this has been bis
observation aud experience.

LATE NEWS BY WIRE.
Rumored Plot to Restore Hawaii's
Queen.
ENGLAND TO Be HER PROTECTOR
Alleged Reason for Admiral Walkers
Trip.
MIR. DAVIES MISSION HERE

CHICAGO. March pa special to the
Record from Washington says: Secretary
Gresham, in conversation with gentle
man yesterday, stated that Admiral Walk
er's mission to the Hawaiian Islands had
nothing to do with the establishment of a
naval depot at Pearl harbor but that dis
patches had been received from Mr.. Willis
which 1t was not considered expedent to
send to Congress- indicating that an out
break might occur at Honolulu at any
time, which would require the presence
of COOL shrewd and determined man to
look after the interests of the United
States
Secretary Gresham undoubtedly alluded
plot, which has been disclosed while Mr..
Davies, the guardian of Princess Kaiuani,
mas been In Washington. This plan con-
templates the restoration of the queen
with the assistance of England, and a
British protectorate in the Hawaiian ISL
ands.
Mr. Davies is a thorough Englishman has
sympathies which entirely with Great
Britain, and he now goes to represent her
FALLEN majesty at the court Of st. James in
this affair. The plan is to have the queen
proclaim her sovereignty and then proceed
at once to the British legation, which is
Immediately across the street from the
palace in which she now resides, and there
apply for protection on the pretense that her
life is in danger.
Mr. Wodehouse. the British minister will
recognize her as queen and give her the
protection she desires. 1t is undoubtedly In
connection with this affair that Mr.. Davies
has visited Washington, and he has given
due notice of the Intentions of her majesty
to the President and Secretary Of State.

whelming defeat.

AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT.
United states Treasurer Goes Into Dis
trict Bonds History.


The Speaker of the House TODAY received
letter from the United States Treasurer.
making an unfavorable report upon Mr..
Cogswells bill, to provide for the payment
Of the eight per cent greenback certificates
of the District of Columbia. After review
ing the history of these certificates, the re-
port says:
The bill in question will operate unfayor-
ably to the interests of the United States
for the reason that the United States ha s
borne its full share of the cost of street
Improvements, and If the funding of the 3
per cent bonds is authorized the United
States will become Chargeable with one
half of the expenditure required to redeem
the principal of the bonds issued and of
the interest thereon, subjectng it to an ex-
cessive proportion OF expenditure on this
account.
ut is also unjust to give the present hold
ers of the outstanding per cent bonds an
additional interest over the rate allowed
those who have already surrendered their
bonds To comply with the provisions Of
this bill an issue of about $4,000 of 3.6I
bonds will be required, which, after paying
the interest contemplated on the board of
audit certificates and the increased cate of
interest on the per cent bonds, would only
retire a principal of 49, 80. and it is sub
mitted that it is not a sound principal OF
business or finance to provide for the in
terest upon an obligation by giving there
for another Understanding obligation.
The report says there are now pending
in the Court of Claims four or five causes
against the District Of Columbia, which, II
allowed, will have to be satisfied by issu-
ing '365 bonds. There is also the award
of the arbitrators in the case of Samuel
Strong VS.. the District of Columbia, which
will in like manner have to be satisfied
by a further issue of these bonds, which
will amount to AT least $4,000.
1T will therefore be SEEM" says the re-
port, that 1t is doubtful if the unlssue5
bonds Of the 1863 loan will prove sufficient
to meet the obliga created by existing
law"

NOT LIKE THE NOVELS.
The Runaway Lovers Were Forgiven
without Hesitation.

NEW YORK, March 29.-Mr. and Mrs.
Courtlandt Hamm, whose marriage Octo-
Der I, 1893. was kept a profound secret I'M
til divulged by the bride to her mother last
Tuesday, have determined now that their
escapade has been forgiven, to take up
their residence in this city. Mr.. Hamm Is
the son Of a wealthy Philadelphia leather
merchant. He met Miss Teresa Atlee when
both were mere children. With their ma
turing years their friendship ripened into
love, but, somehow. they thought Miss At
lees mother, Mrs. John A. Buckley of 443
East 116th street, was averse to their mar
rage.
Nothing daunted by this opposition
whether fancied or real, the young man
came to New y ork from his parental home
October last and brought with him the
Rev. J. l.. Kellogg of Philadelphia. The
young lady was in waiting for them at the
house Of some friends. and without much
ado the couple were united
There was an understanding that the
marriage should be kept secret for a year
But Mrs. Hamm, whose husband had, i'm
mediately after the ceremony, returned 70
his Philadelphia home. found concealment
so burdensome that she confessed, threw
herself upon her mothers mercy and was
promptly forgiven.

WOMEN TRUSTEES.
The Local School Bill Goes Over in
the Senate.

the Senate.
Senator Martin today called Up in the
Senate the bill favorably reported by him
yesterday, authorizing the Commissioners
of the Distric; to appoint three women
school trustees. The bill was about to be
passed when Senator Hoar asked the num-
Der of the trustees now provided for. Mr..
Martin could not answer, and Senator Har-
ris assured Mr.. Hoar that the women, IL
the bill should pass, would certainly be in
a very small minority. Mr. Hoar said he
had no objections whatever to women as
school trustees, but on the contrary. was
very much in favor of such legislation.
He called attention to the fact that In his
state the women formed IS per cent of the
teaching force, and he had no doubt this
ratio prevailed here also. If that were true,
he added, the number of women On the
board should not be limited 10 three. He
therefore moved to amend the bill by strik-
Ing out the word three and leaving the
number of women trustees to the discretion
of the Commissioners.
The Commissioners, he added, are all men
and can certainly be trusted to preserve the
usual unities that seem to prevail in re-
gard to the subject of male control over the
government. Mr. Faulkner said that he had
certain matters in relation 70 the bill which
he desired to look up, and he asked that IL
