LOOKING FOR POINTERS.
Wisconsin Mayor Comes to ST.
Paul for Them

Mayor A. A. Dye, of Madison, Wis,
was a visitor at the city hall yester-
day. Mayor Dye called upon Mayor
Doran and also upon Commissioner
Copeland, of the public works depart
ment. The purpose of his visit was to
obtain information as to the methods
and cost of street lighting in st. Paul.
Mayor Dye said that the citizens of
Madison were seeking to reduce the
expense of street lighting. An electric
lighting company had been charging
the city $110 per year per arc light The
charge was considered exorbitant and
it resulted in an agitation in behalf of
cheaper rate, and proposition that
the city do its own lighting Since
the agitation began, Mayor Dye said
that the electric company had already
come down in it's figures from $110 to
$S5 per arc per year.
Commissioner Copeland furnished
Mayor Dye with full information relat-
ing to the systems of street lighting
now in use in st. Paul, including the
cost Of each.

INVADES LA CROSSE COUNTY.
Army Worm Continues It's Destructive
March in Wisconsin.

Mdrch IN Wisconsin.
Galesyille, Wis, July 23.1[Special. L
The army worm has entered this locality
millions in number and the pests are
devoting their entire time and attention
to devourjng fields of oats not yet rip
ened. In one instance fourteen-acre
field of grain near this city was en-
tirely consumed. Farmers who sOwed
grain early will escape with little loss,
but oats that are not ripe at this date
will hardly be worth the cutting Some
corn fields are now being entered If
the worms commence operations on this
crop, only fodder Will be left. The army
worm has never done serious damage
here before.
Fond du Lac. Wis, July 23.-FSpeciaIJ
Reports are coming In from all parts
of the county stating that crops are be-
ing destroyed by the army worm. Where
week ago there were thousands, today
the number has increased to millions.
In Oaktield and Forest the worms were
never seen until yesterday, when they
came in large numbers. Farmers came
TO town yesterday looking for help SO
that they could cut their crops at once,
before they are entirely destroyed by the
worms. Pie army worms do not gener-
ally enter ripe fields, though there are
cases where they have. Generally they
prefer the green and tender stems of
riDening grain or corn.
