natural enemies. 1t is greedily devoured
by poultry and by all insectivorous birds,
and frogs and toads find it dainty food. A
dozen or more species of predaceous beetles
are known to feed upon the caterpillars,
and large portion of them become para
sitized by flies of different kinds. Many
of the caterpillars reared last year at an in
sectary yielded friendly tachina flies instead
of moths. The eggs of these flies are al
most without exception placed upon the
head and thOrax. When they hatch, the
young maggots bore into the body of the
caterpillar and nearly always cause its
death.

Loss i'm the Packing House FIJI

Loss in the Packing House Fire.
It was after o'clock yesterday
morning when the fire department re-
turned from its trip out to the Hasley
& Reef slaughter house. The fire
started late at night and it was a long
distance to alarm boxes. The structure
was wrapped in flames before the de-
partrnent got there. The house being
situated down near the Rio Grande
Western railway bridge it was Of
course out of the hydrant district. The
department went to the bench station
and took out the steamer but the
building could not have been saved.
A considerable quantity of meat was in
the house though not as much as is
usually the case on account of its be-
ing Saturday night. A large quantity
of cured meats, tallow and lard was in
the building and made the fire a very
hard one to fight. The origin of the
fire is unknown.
A conservative estimate of the loss
puts the sum ait about $1,000. The in
surance on the burned property was
Sc, 800 and was written by j. H Knaus
& son, of this city. The companies
Interested are the Home, of New York

ter up at this time is the attempt to
have Williams pardoned, and the
friends and relatives Of Hutchings are
having the records overhauled and the
evidence as given in the case trans
erlbed so as to present it to the board
Of pardons. The sentiment OF the people
is being collected for the benefit of
the board, in fact the case is now be-
ing gone over anew The records in
the case are very complete and are all
on file in the court vaults. Your cor
respondent has talked with a number
of parties who are familiar with the
case. and they all express an opinion
which may have a tendency to pro-
long Williams confinement There are
some however, who think that he has
served long enough and it is said that
his eye sight is failing very fast and
unless he is soon liberated will be
totally blind.

Ogden people are considerably inter-
ested in the work of some prospectors
over on the promontory west of this
place. Quite a number of Ogden
citizens are over there, among them
being Mr.. Ives and G. r. Hank. A
glance at a raised map will show why
much is hoped for from this region.
Take the Oquirrh range and continue
northward from it across the lake and
it will be seen that the line thus traced
falls a trif1e east of the promontory
mountains. Now in the Oquirrh range
is Mercur and there are many who
hold to the theory that the promontory
range is but a continuation of the rich
Oouirrh range. On the other hand
others think the StansbuIy range is
continued in the promontory range and
as rich ore has already been found in
the Stansbury mountains it is hoped
that whichever theory be true rich
ore will be found on the promontory.
The recent excitement over Little
mountain was in a, measure due to the
theory that it was a continuation of
the Mercur belt. Messrs Hank and
Ives are known to be prospecting on
the eastern slope as they rather in
cline to the theory that new Mercur
will be found thereon. The people in
clining to the Stansbury range theory
are more apt to prospect on the west
ern slope.
Reports from absent prospectorS are
anxiously awaited.

TuE SCRANBLERs.


Anything for an Office" seems to be
the motto of the Republican seram-
-blers after office in this city. A pretty
good illustration of this their donlinat-
ing principle is furnished in the recent
absurd complaint of r. H. 'Whipple,
asking that the office of city attorney
be returned to him.
Shorn of its legal verbiage, the doc
ument simply recites that he was ap-
pointed and served his term and that
Henderson was appointed and quail
fed according to law, but that now
Mr.. Whipple wants the Office back.
and as the city attorney refuses TO
give to him, the court should compel
him to do So
Of course, it is surmised that Mr..
Whipple relies on a legal quibble to
reinstate him, but nothing of the kind
is mentioned in the complaint There
is no hint that any protest was made
against giving up the office in the first
place, ana hence the whole action ap-
pears as an afterthought based on the
discovery of. a legal technieaHty by
which it is hoped to misconstrue the
constitution and the statutes in a way
that their makers never thought pos
sible, and a misconstruction which, if
followed to it's legitimate conclusion,
would totally disorganize the city
governments of the state But such
are the methods of 1.-The scramblers. -

From the circumstances of a recent bat
tie of the checks" it is apparent that
'big mit' methods are not unknown to
the aborigines. In the. progress of the
game a ripple of excitement attracted
some spectators, when it was observed
that large pot was on the table and that
a "raise" of one hundred dollars awaited
caller. Two contestants were zealously
guarding two hands One of the play
ers had friends rustling for collateral to
make the call" a half hour of silence
and supense followed, after which the
friend who was rustling on the outside
returned with a certificate of deposit call

the table when the players showed down.
One held four queens. the other four
aces. The one with the queens took
possession of the cash and collateral The
man with four aces was confronted with
the fact that he had used foul deck and
therefore had lost. 1t was the old trick
of robbing a man on his own deal. The
foul deck had been placed in his hand
and then his money was claimed to
have been forfeited on the ground Of
fraud.-I.e WiSton Teller.
