SHOWER OF BUGS
Immense Descent of Bugs supposed to be
Locusts.

THAT must be hail" said policeman
last night on North Main street, as little
pebbly things hoped on the sidewalk and
all over he street like bailstones. Exam
lnation proved them to bs bugs nearly as
big as pigeon eggs and they dropped to
terra hrma In showers that bee tme alarm
ing. Where they came from no one knew,
but for ten minutes or more they de-
scended INCREASINGLY. The hot tamala
man said they We're the thirteen year
locusts and no one denied it for the simple
reason that none present ever saw the
thIrteeu-year locust-, or II they did they
Could not remember what they looked
like. Under the eieci ric lamps they were
piled in some instances three or more
inches deep and they struggled among
themselves like coutending football teams.

with his merchandise and then sat down
on the curoStone TO tell what hs knew
about locusts

the shells and go about in light marching
order like grasshoppers. They haven't as
many legs the grasshoppers. their
wings are bigger. and, generally speaking,
they are of gauZy appearance. This is
their year aud they are due about this
very time. l know them on light, for they
nearly eat my fat1er out OF home and
farm in Adams county, Illinois, thirteen
years ago. They are not dangerous to
crops, but they play smash with the trees
and this is what hurt my father. for he
was fruit Raiser. They remain five or
SIX weeks, and during all this time they
keep boring into trees where they lay their
eggs The eggs hatch out in fifteen days
and then the young ones drop 10 the
ground and that is the last seen of them

come every thirteen years. 1 never saw
anybody that could tell. but suppose it is
the nature of the varnlnt aud they can't

same chaps" said he, picking one of them
up by the tail and examining ii with a
