A Chance to Make Money.

l saw one of your subscribers tell
in your columns few weeks ago how
she made money selling dish washers.
I wrote to the Iron City Dish Washer
Co., E. E. Pittsburg, Pa, and OBJ
tanned one of their dish washers and
tried it for myself first. It is just
lovely; you can wash and dry the
dishes for family in just two minutes,
without touching your hands to a
dish or putting them in hot water. l
made the first day, SIS and everybody
wanted dish washer just as soon as
they saw me wash their dishes. Since
then I have made as high as $l8 a
day, and l believe that [ can get
enough money to keep my brother at
school this winter and have money in
the bank too. Any lady or gentleman
can do as we'll as l am doing, I am
sure, as ! had no experience. When
everybody wants to buy, it is not
hard to sell. Anyone can get informa
ton by writing the above firm, and I
am glad to add my experience, be-
cause I think it my duty to others to
help them over the hard times.

keeping their movements quiet can
only be attributed to their desire to
secure more options on the land
around that on which they have OPP
tons at the present time. Should they
strike an important lode of gold-bear-
ing quartz and should continue for
any length in one direction the COM
pany might soon find that it had
reached the limit of lands controlled
by it and consequently a prospector
for some other persons benefit. Mr..

fact that it is understood that he was

MIGRATORY HABIT.
How ChinCh Bugs Move From One
Place to Another.

The above accounts for the peculiar
fact that the migrating armies of
chinch-bugs, when leaving the fields
of small grains for those of green
corn, are composed of all ages, forms
and sizes. In some cases nearly full
grown larvae compose the majority of
the army; again, small and large lar
vac and pupae form the bulk, but
most usually large numb er of adults
are among the migrating insects. Gil
matte conditions and the resulting fit
ness or unfitness of the food plants
are the main cause of this peculiar
state of affairs. AS a very general
rule, such armies do not and can not
travel very fast nor far, and seldom a
distance of over one hundred rods is
passed over. OF course, hunger is a
very severe prompter, and almost all
bugs leave field no longer furnish
ing food at nearly the same time, and
all-prompted by the same sense or
instinct-move in the same direction,
and almost invariably to the next field
of corn. What this sense may be is
difficult to state; perhaps an acute
sense of smell, perhaps some sense we
do not know anything about, not pos
sessing it ourselves. Notwithstanding
the fact that the adults found in such
an army possess wings, they use them
but very seldom, and only when the
air is very warm and dry. Such
winged insects may fly to the next
source of food, or may be blown by
the winds arising during their flight
to PARKWAY regions, to form the start
ing point of new colony. All at
tempts to force such winged insects
to fly are of no avail; they evidently
trust more to their legs than to their
wings. An army of migrating chinch-
bugs would be sad sight if they were

THURSDAY, APRIL IL, 1895.

There has been rumor going
around the county for month or so
connecting Mr.. Blethen's name with
an unnatural offense. The rumor be-
came more and more widely 'circulat-
ed until it was on the lips of nearly
every school boy. County Attorney
Frank Clague came over from Lam
berton two weeks ago to prosecute q
petit larceny case and was for the
first time made aware of the rumor.
At that time he concluded that q
grand jury was unnecessary but alter
hearing the uumor he concluded that
an extraordinary jury had better be
subpoaened.
Mr.. Clague acquainted Mr.. Blethen
with the rumor and informed hira that
it Was the duty of both officials to stop
or confirm it by an investigation and
he hoped that Mr.. Blethen would lend
every possible assistance to put a qui-
etus one way or another to the affair.
MIR. Blethen then decided to resign
his Office as sheriff and this resigna-
ton was submitted and acted upon
as above stated.
The resignation naturally produced
great excitement in political circles.
1t seems that the "ring workers" were
on to the resignation and proceeded to
manipulate the wires for one OF their
crowd. Several candidates we're in
view. Ex-City Recorder Gleason had
the backing of ex-President Beard, OF
the defunct Bank of Fairfax, who was
supposed to have pull on Commits
sioners Arnold and Pease. Commits
sioner Pease himself jumped into the
arena and announced himself a candi-
date for the office. Up to last Thurs
day night it looked as though Mr..
Pease had the inside track, it being
understood that Commissioners Bill
lington and Arnold we're for him.
About that time the anti Republican
forces including both Democrats and
Populists, having majority of the
Board, concluded that some other
man than one of Republican views
should be the successor of Mr.. Bleth-
en-. Chairman Bager, of the Demo
cratic county committee, started a
skirmish. He was out flat footed for
Michael Dooner, although Clark Shaw
or or Will Steele would have been sat-
isfactory to him. He argued with
Commissioner Cooper and is under
stood to have secured a promise from
that gentleman to stand by Mr.. Doom
er. He and R. D. White then drove
over to Leo Altermatt's home in Will
low Lake. This was on Friday even
ing. There he learned that the Board
was to meet the next day. Mr.. Alter
matt agreed to vote for Steele on the
first ballots and finally change to
Dooner. Chairman Bager returned
to Redwood Falls that night where he
met James Arnold and held an inter-
esting session with the First district
commissioner.

NAIL WEIGHERS.

Washington, March 1.-THE postoffice
department is now making more than
400 appointments of mail weighers in
Illinois,. Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Ar
kansas. Indian Territory, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana.
The department regulates its payments
to the railway companies which carry
the mails in bulk by periodical weighing.
The plan is to weigh average loads at
season of average activity and the
weights of the several classes of mail
matter thus obtained are accepted as a
standard to govern the compensation OF
the companies until the next weighing
takes place. The process requires good
judgment, careful accuracy and an IN
teligent understanding of the general
scheme of transportation. Instead of ap-
pointing outsiders on the recommends
ton of members of congress and party
managers to do the work, the depart
ment last year took the men from the
head of the eligible registers in the rail-
way mail service of men examined by the
civil service commission. They did this
voluntarily because, as stated by the
second assistant postmaster general, they
were thus able to command a more
efficient class of men than could be pro-
cured through other methods. The ap-
pointment of men thus examined was,
he said, a decided success so much so that
the opinion was general that the new
system should be permanently enforced.
The department has called upon the
commission for 600 names from which to
make these 400 appointments, and the
persons taken will be employed for about
33 days.
