Since, with leading man, of this
county, over the demoralized con-
ditioh Of the eolinty's finances, he
explained what had caused our
county paper to be offered at less
than S per cent. discount, and
stated that it was through the mis-
representations Of that Insignificant
paper, the LEADER, because, said
he, arrangements were made by
which every dollar could be sold at
5 per cent. discount, but as outside
parties taks tbs Les4DER, they got
afraid and said "No" we will buy
as cheap as we can, etc. Now if
exposing fraud before the public
depreciates oar county scrip, let it
go down to an equal footing with

ELECTRIC LIGHT BUGS.
Giant Beetles That Are Attracted
to the Cities.
Mammoth Winged Insects That We're
Unknown Previous to the Introduce
tion of the New IlIu-
7 minator.

Electric bugs have made their ap-
pearance in Pittsburgh and have led
the Dispatch of that city to make
study of them.
These bugs were in America when
the country was first discovered and
are very common in European coun-
tries. Before electric lights were
known the bugs were seldom seen and
not often were specimens of them OBJ
tanned. AS soon as electric lights ap-
peared in city, so did the bugs.
The bugs resemble flies in shape.
They have six legs or claws, glossy
wings, body like a beetle and rather
large eyes. Directly between the eyes
they have what is called spear. This,
their only weapon of defense, is about
three-eighths Of an inch long in full
grown bug Their sting is very pain
full, but it is not poisonous. They
never fight unless interfered with.
Electric bugs do more good than
harm. They eat up the smaller in
sects, and it's a novel way they have,
too. of catching them. If they had to
fly after insects to catch them they
would never capture any. They lie
upon their backs with their six tiny
claws in the air. Then they move
them slowly to and fro and thus at
tract the attention of their prey. AS
soon as an insect alights upon one of
the claws it is promptly seized and de-
youred.
The bugs make their appearance as
soon as the warm weather sets in. They
are rather small at first, but in less
than a month they attain their full
growth.
Some of them measure over three
inches in length and are nearly an inch
wide. They lay their eggs in the bot
tom of rivers. 1t is estimated that one
female bug will lay three thousand
eggs in three months during her life
time. The eggs remain in the mud
during the winter and are Matched by
the first warm wave.
Toward the end of the summer when
insects become scarce the bugs kill
small fishes and eat them. A swarm of
the bugs will go after small fish and
stab it to death with their spears.
They then carry the carcass of the fish
to the bottom of the river and it lasts
them for food many days.
These bugs can propel themselves
through the water faster than a fish.
Fishes fear them, although they are
never attacked by them when insects
are to be caught. These bugs have
been known to kill some good-sized
fnny specimens.
The first cool wave that comes drives
the bugs to the river, where they re-
main until the frost kills them. When
they die they are eaten by the fishes as
a sort of pOafio"1 ro+ribution. no doubt.
They are more numerous in the city
now than at any other time. If the
bugs remain away from the water
until daylight they cannot find their
way back to the rivers until night sets
in again. Daylight has the same effect
on them as electric lights, only they fly
high in the air instead of in circles or
against lamp globes, and consequently
do not die from exhaustion.
