An insect visitation was experienced
In large section of Chicago the other

Of the earlier summer paled into tnsig-

part Of the North side, slehting IN the
largest numbers IN the brightest parts
Of the section and displaying peculiar
preference for brilliantly-lighted North

From the bridge to Lincoln park the
pest was yiruient. There were not 30
many of the bug@perhaps score to
every electric light along the street,
but their ways were devious and annoy

Of the arc lamp for few moments and
then drop, selecting time when a man
or woman got under them. Many pedes-
TRANS caught beetles in the back OF
their pecks and affectionately squeezed
them between flesh and shirt band,
expostulating all the time. With hasty
fingers and horror and vociferous
tongue the unfortunate wayfsNrs dug
down their backs and pulled the insects

their lodgment. Falling on hats, the

they made things interesting for the

They also displayed fondness fog
