LOCUSTS ATTACK A TRAIN.
VICINITY OF PATERSON, N. j., VS.
TIED BY CLOUDS OF THE PESTS.

The Farmers Are Talking Of Forming a
Society for Their determination - A
, Fine Orchard Of Pear Trees Denuded
Of Leaves and Young shoots.
A special dispatch to the New York
Herald says that the country in the
vicinity Of Paterson, N. J is so denselv
overrun with the seventeen-yea locusts
that the farmers are talking of forming
a society for the determination of the
pests. Josiah H. Van Blarcom has al
ready lost the crop Of a magnificent
orchard Of pear trees, which were de-
nuded of leaves and young shoots by the
locusts. BE Is the prime mover in the
farmers vigilance committee.
a cloud of locusts so large That the
farmers thought a storm was rising,
came over the mountain west Of Noun
tain View and swept toward Pomptou
about o'clock yesterday afternoon. AS
the locusts neared the village a train on
the New York and Greenwood Lake
Railroad rounded the bend near Pompton
The train was Immediately in the track
Of tho locusts, which were about thirty
feet from the ground making q gradual
descent Rs If about to attack the train.
When within a few feet Of the smoke
stack of the locomotive the engineer blew
the whistle and sent a cloud of steam 10
ward the locusts. The insects made q
sharp swerve to the east and few to a
mountain back of Pompton lake. Many
of them were drawn into the train by the
rush of wind, while others were hurled
against the locomotive and cars and
scattered dead about the tracks The
passengers caught the few that entered
the car windows and no doubt took them
home as curiosities,
While en- route to the mountains the
cloud of locusts broke up as if demOr
allied by the shrek Of the locomotive
whistle Many alighted in the grove
NEAR the Norton House at Pompton, while
the greatest mass took refuge in the
neighboring hills, which are covered with
trees. AS soon as the locusts gather in 9
bit Of wood land they begin to sing in
concert and the noise is Kept up from
sunrise to sunset 1t is pleasing con.
cert although monotonous and when
heard from the distance sounds like the
eroakiug of a million frogs.
