1t is claimed that the Pope must be
secular ruler in order that his spiritual
authority may not be impaired and his
Kingdom which is not of this world,
enoroached on. While the Popes did havo

exile, and death.
Their Temporal. power made them politi-

The.Pope- is free, and''is no prisoner as
pretended. There are two good reasons
why the Pope will not be molested now
he has lost his 5000 soldiers. One of
them is a solemn guarantee of the Italian
nation-a Catholic nation. There is not
one chance in a million that that guaran-
tee will be violated. 1t would be the

His sphere is the teaching of righteous
ness and preparation for death and beyond
the grave.
The loss of the temporalities has been
blessing for Popes and churches. 1t has
made the former less worldly and moro

CALIFORNIA PEACHES.
Tricks of Street Vendors to Disguise the
Locality They Come From.
IN. Y. Sun. J

Persons acquainted with the California
peach sold in this market wonder little
that it fetches good prices in London,
and suspect that when Londoners once
learn that its flavor is never equal to the
promises of its blush the fruit will cease
to be readily salable abroad. Delaware
peach growers insist that the peach is
peculiarly unfit for cold storage, and that
no peach can have rich faovr that is
plucked hard, sent 1000 miles across
country in refrigerator cars, and then
kept at temperature near the freezing
point until disposed of. Some of the late
and very dry peaches grown in Delaware,
Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania
are kept long time by placing them in
baskets and setting them in dry, cool
barn, where the temperature is perhaps
never below As degrees OF much above 6O
degrees. These conditions of course, are
obtained in the peninsular peach region
only in October and early November.
The California peach sold IN this mar
ket is by far the most beautiful peach that
the Now Workers see. 1t is perfect in form.
charming in color, and much larger on
the average than any peach from nearer
orchards 1t is however. usually tough
when green and flabby when artifcially
ripened. The Italians, Greeks, and other
strangers that vend these articles from
push carts in the street have learned just
enough Enlish to lie about their fruit.
They have learned, too, that the California
peach is an object Of suspicion to the re-
tail buyer, and they have way of pro-
claiming it Georgia peach. Anyone ac-
quainted with the Georgia pech at once
recognizes the fraud. The California peach
is offered as a Delaware pech if the buy
or shifts at the word Georgia. Anyone
acquainted with the Delaware peach, and
that means, to all lntents ana purposes,
the Maryland, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey peaches, and perhaps the Connec-
ticut and New York peaches, need never
be deceived by the beauty of the Califor-
MIA fruit The dealers know that the
California peach is ordinarily cling
stone, and they have an ingenious way
of dropping in with them few freestone
peaches. To the inquiry, 'cling or free?'
the answer always is "free',, and the
dealer plcsks up one of the few freestones
on his cart and opens it ostentatiously in
proof of his assertion. Nothing is so dis
sappointing to him as to have buyer
take take that particular peach as part of his
five cents worth. Another trick of the
dealers is to cut clingstone peach in half,
sacrifice one half, and carefully pick
81 can the exposed part of the stone that
remains in the other half To the ques-
ton free or cling he confidently points
to this convincing fraud. The opinion
held of the cold-storage peach in this
market is shown plainly enough by the
cheapnass Of these peaches on the push
cart. They often sell two or three for
five cents when much smaller and less
attractive Delaware, Maryland, and New
Jersey peaches are selling at the same

and lays its eggs in the fatty tissue. Mr..
Dinsmore has watched them do it a great
many times. Just as the caterpillar has
got fairly established in some crevice and
has begun to spin it's cocoon, in fact, even
after the cocoon has been partially spun,
the ichneumon fly gets in its deadly work.
1t settles on the caterpillar, curves up it's
long ovipositor and gives its victim vic
ious jab The caterpillar squirms little,
but it does not feel the tiny eggs after
they are laid.
1t is when the eggs hatch out, which
they do very quickly, that the real trouble
begins for the caterpillar. The tiny larvae
are like the maggot of the bee or wasp,
being footless, soft and white These
maggots absorb the blood and other fluids
of the caterpillar's body One scientist,
Mr.. E. B. Poulton, of London, thinks
that "the motive force that drives the
blood from the body of the host into the
digestive tract of the parasite is entirely
supplied by the contracted body walls OF
the former" However it is that the tiny
grub sucks the life blood of it's victim, it
certainly succeeds in doing so and thus
feeds itself until it also goes into the pupa
state, spins tiny cocoon of its own, from
which it emerges in due time, breaks
through the body walls of the dead pupa
of the caterpillar and escapes into the
world fullfiedged ichneumon fly.
Of course if one Of the caterpillars sue
ceeds in spinning it's cocoon before it Is
discovered and attacked by an ichneumon
fly, it is safe and most assuredly will
live through the winter and emerge in
the spring fullfedged moth.
In company with Mr.. Dinsmore, a
PRESS representative examined some OF
the cocoons on the tree trunks recently
They found more that were lifeless than
otherwise. The body of the pupa was
simply a hol low she'll, in one side of
which was the hole through which the
ichneumon flies escaped. In one OF the
pupae, they found the dead body of tiny
iohneumon fly that had evidently been
unable to escape
OF course any estimate is extremely
problematical, but Mr.. Dinsmore thinks
that only one third, at the most, of the
cocoons have thus been rendered lifeless
and that the remaining two thirds will
be serious menace to our elm trees next
year.
From the examination above mentioned
it would seem to the writer that more
than half of the caterpillars had been
killed by the ichneunon flies, though OF
course that is only matter OF opinion.
Next summer will tell the story.
But think of the terrible fate Of these
caterpillars! Eggs are deposited in it's
body by marvellous. and cruel instru-
ment against which it is utterly helpless.
These eggs develope into living creatures,
scores of them, that simply suck the life
blood Of the victim till there is none OF it
left.
The idea of being eaten up from the
outside, by lion or shark, is bad enough
but imagine yourself eaten mp from the
inside, by rats, for instance, or tiny rep
tiles that have Matched in your abdomen
and you will realize the tragedy of the
caterpillar and the iohneumon flies and
the awful relentlessness Of natures great
law of the survival of the flttest.

THE MODERN CORN BINDER.

Its Use and the Manner of Operating IT
as Described by American Agricu1turist.
The great American money crop is
corn. A loss or partial failure of sim
gle crop amounts to calamity. Ma
chinery for preparing the ground, plant
ing the seed and cultivating the grow
ing plant has been improved upon. but
the one great drawback is the lack of
practical implement for husking stand
ing corn. This has not yet appeared.
However, the same object is being par
TALLY accomplished in somewhat
roundabout way by means Of the corn
binder and the combined husker and
fodder shredder. All corn cannot be
husked by this plan, as it necessitates
cutting, shocking and running the cured
fodder through the husker, but improved
corn binders have made this practice
more common than would have been
possible few years ago. The greater
appreciation for corn fodder and its
wide use have created demand for
better corn harvesting machinery.
Several firms have produced corn
binders which are on the market this
season. These operate on practically the
same principle, differing in details of
construction. The machine is drawn by
two horses and cuts one row at a time.
The stalks are out off near the ground,
or about 10 inches above it, and carried,
standing on end, in an upright position,
to a modified form of the ordinary bar
yester binder and bound in bundles,
common binding Irvine being used. The
bundles are then discharged to one side,
leaving room for the machine to pass in
cutting the next row. 1t can be adjusted
to short or tall corn and tilted up or
down in order to pick up fallen or lean
ing stalks. The bundles are shocked
much as are wheat sheaves.
Sorghum, Kaffir corn, Milo maize
and similar forage plants have been
successfully harvested with the corn
binder. If ordinary shock corn is de-
tired, begin cutting when the blades
have begun to turn, which in central
attitudes during an ordinary season is
about Sept. / to TO- Place the bundles
IN good sized shocks, taking care not to
make them too large if the weather ia

This material was used extensively
last season because Of a poor hay crop
and scarcity of grain and was highly
praised. If the crop is wanted chiefly
for the fodder, cut the corn greener, put
m in smaller shocks and when cured

fodder had better be stored in the hay

The views of Mr.. ITrusler on the mu-
nicipal situation, printed in yesterdays
Journal, should be carefully read by ev-
cry intelligent citizen who desires eff
cient municipal government. A man Of
few words, he leaves no one in doubt as
to the course he will pursue if he is elect
ed Mayor. He does not believe that it
is conducive to the welfare of the peo-
pie of Indianapolis to have it become the
resort of gamblers. as it was under the
Sullivan regime. For the regulation Of

1t is not a question whether the Mayor
approves them or does not. He is sworn
to execute them-to see that those who
have licenses are protected in their
rights by preventing illegal traffic, and
to enforce the avs against those who
break the contract with the city and
county which every person makes who
purchases a license. The Mayor of In
dianapolis has no power to permit
a saloon keeper to break his contract
and violate the laws Of the State. The
Mayor of Indianapolis is not a 1aw-mak-
err, but an official whose duty 1T is to
enforce all the laws as interpreted by
the courts. The laws absolutely prohib-
1t gambling and regulate the liquor traf-
fc. The Mayor who neglects to en-
force the laws is constructively guilty
of malfeasance.
Equally frank is Mr.. Trusler when he
comes to speak of city expenditures. He
says that the charter making a govern
ment for a city has necessitated a larger
expenditure than was necessary under
the old regime. Indianapolis, whose pop
ulation has increased $4,000 since 1880,
must have it's municipal expenditures
increased to meet the demands of this
growth. In view of these facts, Mr..
Trusler says that If elected he will de-
vote his time and his attention to seeing
that the OF the city shall be
expended upon business principles and
no part of them wasted. Those who
know Mr.. Trusler, and most people do
know him. know that he will live up
to the promises he has made If he shall
be elected Mayor.
