Chattanooga at 5 in tho morning. and
tho train was on timc in Chattanooga.
They were only delayed ten or twelve
minutcg, just long enough TO wipe thoso
fellows out, got oil, loGd them up and
care for them, and then make up tho
time. The attempted holdup was in a
wild and lonely spot aud well calculated
for Just such work. l do not know
whether thcre was any especial treasure
or property on the trnia. The Adams
Express can tell.about that haven't
the information in detail YET, but | will
venture to say that very few Of the pas
sengers knew OF the trouble. 1t was at
time OF night when they would bc
asleep. Some might have heard tho
shooting. but it was all over so quickly
and the train on the movo again, that it
would be impossible for them TO know
much. There may have been some tip
to the men that holdup was intended.
but have nothing on that score"
At the Adams Express they said that
the run vas only an ordinary one. there
being no special treasure aboard. The
express messenger is Daniel Lasckc, Of
Cincinnati. His family hero is highly

THE CORN WORN.

Tho corn worm is weIl.known pest
throughout all sections OF tho coun-
try. In the North it's chief food plant
is corn, hence the name; but in the
South it is termed the boil worm from
its habit of boring into the cotton
balls and causing them to decay. It
is also very fond of peas, beans and
tomatoes, and will feed readily upon
many other vegetables.
When feeding upon tho corn the
corn worm lives upon the kernels, pro-
tected from exposure by tho husks.
Its presence may be detected from the
silk being generally partially or en-
tirely eaten off to the top of the
husks, which may he wilted and OF a
lighter color or eaten near the top. II
the worm has left the enr round
hole through the husk about half way
up the eur will be visible.
The method of attack employed by
this insect are such that it is very diff.

Trap lights have been tried. but the
results IRE considered OF very donbt-
full benefit, as is also the method OF

FANS IN lNriNIrI yAnIrry

In this country there is an infinite
variety of the fans of this timo-ool-

gathered them here nnl there, at

sun far exceeding the intrinsic value
of the articles.

with some other specimens recently
exhibited Mt the Ortgies Galleries dur

stand, unless one associates the EN-
press Josephine always with this
period.
The favorite fan is naturally the one
bearing the artists signature. Mrs. AS

GRAIN SHUTS AND THEIR TREATMENT.

NNaAN ''iotS AM Iuislh TREATMENT.
Tho ravaScs of grain smuts and

in u report of the Department. of Ag-
riculture. Tho oat smut, which is
found everywhere, is believed to canso
tho direct loss of eight Fer cent. OF the
crop, or about $4,000, 600 annually.
Sinking smuis in wheat fields cost
the country many millions of dollars
annually. Sometimes fifty or even
seventy-iivo per cent. of tho heads nro

worse than useless for seed. Tho dis
ease is often spread from farm to
farm by threshing machines. When
once introduced, if left unchecked, it
increases yearly. Tho loose smut
usually causes loss of ten per cent.
or moro of the wheat crop, and has
been even reported MS destroying over
fifty per cent. OF crop in Michigan.
Wheat growers nro urged to try to So
