Did you ever hear tell of the time
they gave away head money! in
Maine? 1t was in 1888 when they really
passed it around. The thing started in
1886, when congress passed an act to
divide among the several states all the
money in the United States treasury in
excess of $4,000, 900. Then in 1887 the
| legislature enacted that all moneys so
received from the general government
should be deposited with the several
towns and cities and plantations sub
ject to recall on 60 days notice when
ever the same should be needed for the
purposes of the government. The coun-
try had just been in a business panic,
banks were unsafe and the people ne
cessitous, and in number of towns
the best and safest way to invest the
fund appeared to be to divide it among
the taxpayers. In Biddeford this was
objected to, and the matter was taken
to the supreme court. which held that
towns had no right to make a division
of public funds. But the next legisla-
ture was appealed to to relieve the peo-

The "wangr or king Locust.

The inhabitants of our western states
and territories are badly mistaken if
they suppose that they live in the only
country subject to the periodical incur
sions Of locusts or "grasshoppers. -
China has its visitations Of such plagues
just as regularly and more often than
has ever Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas
or Minnesota During the time Of such
Visitations i'll China the farmers only
remedy is to propitiate the wang" or
liking of the locusts, with gifts. They
believe that this wang" is a more
monstrous insect than was ever seen by
mortal eyes. His body is leagues in ex-
tent, but his wings are so transparent
that the sun shines through them with
out hindrance. Besides being of colossal
size the king locust is of the supernat-
ural kind of insects. He movers over the
region Of the upper air, silently direct
ing the various swarms and controlling
all their movements in time of migra-
t1ons. The Chinese also believe that if
certain district or farm is to be laid
waste it is done under orders from the
wang. No wonder, then, that this ei-
gantic supernatural insect is prayed to
and offered all kinds of inducements in
order to keep his nlinions from working
destruction. st. Louis Republic.
