FORCED TO SHOW THEIR HAND.

STOCKTON
Editor Star:
The San Francisco and San Joaquin
Railroad Company managers have been
forced by you to "show their hand"
sure enough. have already learned
from your editorials to place little or
no confidence in the anti monopoly pro-
fessions of that corporation; but 1 did
hope that on your promptings and the
very general personal demand on the
managers which you wer rousirg, the
management might give us on the line
of their railroad a tan cent telegram
fare. But no; we are not to have even
that.
To my knowledge, many citiz MS,
since you opened the subject, have
urged the proposition and den and re-
speeding cheap telegraphy along the
railroad line which you brought for
ward; and I think there can be no
doubt but that you have smoked out
a confe ssion and informal announce
ment Of the monopoly ah'iatiOn of the
management, so as to head off further
Importantly ] IL this direction.
I hope you will keepup the good tight
in this particular direction, however;
as under your showing an enlightened
public nav yet fnd some way to com
pei the pro vidiDg of t~elegraphlc facI1
ties along this line at something az
DrOximating moderate rates.

Telspathy Amenv insects.

Can 1t be that bugs are endowed
with q wonderful sixth sense? Prof.
9. v. Riley thinks he has discovered
satisfactory evidence OF telepathy
among insects-that is to say q sixth
sense by which they are able to com.
municate ideas from one to another
at great distances. Tho power, 40
illustrated In the case about to be
mentioned, evidently depends not
upon sight or smell or hearing. The
fact that man Is able to transmit
sound by telegraphy almost instan-
taneously around the globe may sug-
gest something OF this subtle power,
even though it furnishes no explana.
ton thereof. Once upon time
Prof. Riley had two ailanthus trees
in his front yard. They suggested
to him the idea OF obtaining from
Japan some eggs OF the ailanthus
silkworm. He got few and Matched
them, rearing the larvae and watch.
ing anxiously for the appearance OF
the first moths from the cocoons.
lie put one of the moths in little
wicker cage and hung 1t up out OF
doors on one OF the dilanthus trees.
This was q female moth. On the
same evening he took a male moth
to cemetery mile and half away
and turned him loose, having pre-.
viously tied a silk thread around the
base OF his abdomen to secure subse.
aueut Identification. Prof. Riley's
purpose In this performance was to
find out II the young male and female
moth would come together for the
purpose OF mating, they being, In all
probability, the only insects OF their
species within q distance OF hum
dreds OF miles excepting only the
others possessed by Prof, Riley him
self. This power OF locating each
other had previously been remarked
in these insects. In this case, sure
enough the male was found with the
captive female the next morning.
The latter had been able to attract

MRS. GEPPERT's DELUsIoN.
She Wants Congress and the Presi
dent to Pay a Claim.

She Wants Congress and the Prcst-
dent to Pay Claim.
An old woman, evidently crank, reached
Washington Tuesday evening AMI asked the
policeman on duty at the 9th street depot
to direct her to Congress. as she wished to
have claim for damages paid. She was
taken to the first precinct station ana
placed in charge of the .natron. Mrs. Lewis,
who learned from the unfortunate woman
that her name is Maria Geppert, sixty-eight
years of age. According to her story, she
came here from Rockford, ILL.,, to secure
damages for the destruction of her prop
erty. She owns a farm in Wisconsin, she
says, but people have burned all the build
ings on it, have shot her cattle and finally
attempted to shoot her whenever she
showed herself outdoors. She went to Mil
waukee to secure lawyers to present her
claims, but they would not undertake the
case, and then she wandered to Rockford,
where she met with the same treatment.
AS result she decided to come here and
secure redress from Congress in person.
Mrs. Geppert had with her several deeds,
receipts and s. in money. She says she
had a son in California and also daugh-
ter. To the latter she intended turning over
her property. but decided that she could
not do SO for the reason that the daughter
was forty-four years Of age. Mrs. Gep-
pert declares that she cannot return home
until the damages are paid, for the reason
that she has nothing to live on except po-
tatoes and salt, and those articles, she
maintains, do not agree with her. The
police surgeons examined the demented wo-
man yesterday afternoon and she Is to be
committed to St. Elizabeth's Asylum to-
day for treatment, as she positively refuses
to leave the city. Sanitary Officer Frank
will make an effort to communicate with
relatives and friends of Mrs. Geppert and
notify them of her present whereabouts
and condition.

ADJUSTMENTS,

Lafayette Square Opera House.-A spe-
cial matinee will be given tomorrow after
noon at the Lafayette Square Opera House,
it being the last appearance but one of
Thos. Q. Seabrooke in "a World of
Trouble" Mr.. Seabrooke begins an engage
ment in st. Louis on Sunday, and in order
to reach there he is compelled to leave here
Saturday morning, therefore the engage
ment ends with the two performances to-
morrow.
Aliens Grand Opera House-Miss Marie
Wainwright will tonight be seen at Aliens
Grand Opera House in The ITneouaJ
Match" This will be the only performance
of this comedy, and there will undoubtedly
be a large audience to witness one of this
actress most effective impersonattons.
Shore Acres. Mr.. James A. Herne, the
author of Shore Acres" has had hard
struggle to gain recognition for his art,
and his present success is justly deserved.
Among the plays he he, has written are
Drifting Apart and Margaret Fleming -
They We're all good plays, but with one ex-
ception, Hearts of Oak" the public SEEM
ed to care very little for them. The great
success achieved by 'Shore Acres has
changed all this, the author having more
orders for plays than he will be able to
write within the next ten years. A fine
production of Mr.. Herne's work, which
won such a notable triumph here last sea-
son. is announced 1Or next week at the
Grand Opera House. The author will again
appear as Uncle Nathaniel and his sup
porting company will be the same as was
seen here year ago.
Palmer Cox's Brownies The interest
among the children in the coming presenta-
ton of Palmer Cox's Brownies" is so
great that it is decided to give Mr. Cox an
open air reception on the White House
grounds next Monday afternoon, when all
the children will have opportunity of
personally meeting the man who has fur
nished them so much pleasure.
Corcoran Cadets Far.-The competitive
squad drill at the Corcoran Cadet Corps
military fete did not open last evening, as
announced, because of circumstances which
however, will positively occur this evening"
when both the Morton Cadets and the Ma
tional Rifles are to drill. The contest is for
costly silver cup, and will commence at
S:15 pm, when the Rifles are to face the
judges. The Mortons will appear fifteen
minutes later. The decision will be re-
served until tomorrow evening. The guests
last evening Were the c. G. Conn Drum
Corps, the Knights of Pythias, Troop A and
Light Battery A of the d. C. N. G. The
exhibition of difficult and fancy club swing
ing Tuesday evening by Miss Hearst proved
one of the features of the fair and was re-
warded with continued applause by the
large number of spectators present The
several local lodges of the Royal Arcanum
are invited to attend this evening. The in
dividual drill for gold medal, open to two
members from each company of the Dis
trict National Guard, is to occur tomorrow
evening.
