Leap Year Dance.

The Leap Year dance on Tuesday
night last, at the Independent Hall,
was quite brilliant little affair and RI :
fleets great credit on the young ladies,
who worked so hard to make it sue
cess. It was only suggested Monday
morning and it took great deal of en-
ergy to carry it through by Tuesday
night. Burck's orchestra, with Mr..
King as pianist. furnished the music.
In spite of the bitter cold outside the
hall was delightfully."- warm. The
young ladies enjoyed to the utmost
their independence, in being able to
ask only just who they wanted to
to dance with them, and the young
men had plenty of attention-no wall
flowers There were quite a number
of chaperones present, among them be-
ing Mrs. Edward S. Eichelberger,
Mrs. Arthur Lee Bosley, Mrs. Dudley
Page, Mrs. f. F. Smith and Mrs. Il.
M. Nixdorff The chaperones looked
after the young men and saw that they
did not dance too much, or sit in
draughts, or any of the things that
girls are usually told not to do. Those
from out of town were the
Misses Turner, of Philadelphia. Pa. /;
Mr.. Edgar Worthington, of Winches-
ter, Va. and Mr.. Carter, of Baltimore.

his timely and fair warning and act
promptly, most likely suffered more or
less loss by the severe cold wave which
reached us a few days only after the
warning, and which is now beginning
to loose some of its severity. Here,
Saturday, Sunday and Monday the
mercury played close around zero. To-
day ice 8 inches thick is being har-
vested.

LANDER.
Ian 7. 1895

Odbs - 4OCO.
Lander is situated at Catoctin, on the
B. & o. r. r., at the lower end of the
famous Middletown Valley. 1t is three
miles from the thriving town of Bruins
wick. Catoctin is becoming quite
noted place for summer boarders and
there were quite number who spent
the summer months at the hospitable
homes in this section. 1t is one of the
finest places for bass fishing on the
Potomac and there were quite a num-
Der caught during the fishing season.
Lander is the home of the Hon. Geo.
w. CruIn, Jr., elected to the House of
Delegates. The vicinity of Lander has
been more improved lately than any
other locality within radius Of forty
miles. This vicinity is noted for its
thrift and economy of farm manage
ment. There is no better wheat or
corn raised in the State of Maryland
than that grown on the Catoctin hills
and valleys by our prosperous farmers.

THE GRANARY WEEvIL.
Best Means of determination Is Bisul-
phide of Carbon.

Best Means of determination Is Bisu1-
Phide of Carbon.
This is the time of year when the
farmer will begin to be worried by the
grain-bin beetle. We have heard q
great deal about them in time past, and
have no reason to expect less trouble
in the future We will descr1 be the IL
lustration. The size of the insects may
be seen by the little straight line beside
each one, the insect as shown being
magnified. The mature weevil is seen
at figure a. His Latin name is Calan-
dra granaria. The larva, that is, the
form as it comes from the egg, is shown
at b. The pupa form is shown at C.
At d is shown another insect, the name
of which is Calandra oryza. Oryza is
Latin for rice, and this insect is popu-
lorly called the rice beetle, because he
was first discovered in this grain.
There is a striking similarity between
this one and the one at a, but the reader
will notice that the thorax Is a lon.
gitudinally punctured.
The granary weevil is not an insect
of recent discovery. 1t is about as old
as history, and we hear of it anterior
to the Christian era. 1t probably once
used it's wings, but after many CEN
turtles of sojourn in the granaries Of
man it seems to have lost that feature.
It's wings remain, but he has not had
the strength to use them. The head is
prolonged in front into long snout, or
proboscis, at the end of which are the
mandibles; the antennae are elbowea
and attached to the snout.
The larva is legless, considerably
shorter than the adult. white in colo-,
while the perfect insect (a) is of q
shiny chestnut brown color. The pup0
(e) is also white, clear and transparent.
The report of the secretary of agricul-
ture thus describes their habits:
1.-THE female punctures the grain
with her snout and inserts an egg, and
from this is hatched larva which de-
yours the farinaceous interior and I'M
dergoes it's Transformation within the
hull. In wheat, barley and other small
grains a single larva inhabits kernel,
but kernel of maze furnishes food
for several individuals. The chief in
jury done by the granary weevil is to
wheat, maze and barley, but it also at
tacks other grains. Unlike the moths
that attack grain, the adult weevils
feed also upon the kernels, gnawing
into them for food and shelter"
The hest mode of determination il
by means of bisulphide of carbon.
placed in the bins by means of tube.
Care should be exercised to secure
only standard quality. Probably this
will be best done by getting some that
is sold especially for this purpose, as
It Is more likely to be of frst-cIass
strength. A little work early in the
season may save a great deal later on.

CHARITY WOODWARD.
A Practical Plan to Assist the
Needy During the Winter.

There has recently been introduced
in Frederick practical plan of giving
work to the unemployed during the
winter months. 1t was adopted from
successful results in other cities, by
Rev. A. H. Zimmerman. of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, and is called
"The Charity Wood Yard" Any one
can obtain employment by applying to
the manager of the yard-Mr. w. F..
Chiffon. Work will be paid for at so
much per pile and sold for slips load.
Tickets will be given in payment for
work, which will be good at certain
stores for their face value in groceries,
etc. Donations can be made to the
"Charity Wood Yard" in wood or
money, and all are requested to give
the plan their support. So far it has
worked very successfully. The yard is
situated near the B. & Q. avenue.

GENERAL COUNTRY PRODUCER

Refusal of . Scotch photographer
"TaRe" Opera Singers

Refusal of Scotch photographer to
"TaRe" Opera Singers
An English operate company whose
members recently returned to London
after a tour in Scotland had curious
experience in one of the inland towns
where a performance was given. 1t
was one of those places where, among
certain classes, the animus against the
aters is almost as great as the consump-
ton of whisky. AS 1t was the last halt
i'll the tour the members of the troupe
agreed. to have themselves photo
graphed and accordingly went to the
local photographer and explained their
intention. "Verra weel," replied the
Scotchman. 81 sail be vera gled to
TAX yer portrets, for We seem douce
and respectable set O. leddies and gen.
tlemen." "And as we are artists" sug-
gested the principal tenor, "and there
are lots of us, perhaps you would see
no objection to making some reduction
from your usual prices?" "Ertists, are
YEP" said the photographer. II dinna
ken what that may be, but what dae ye
dae, may l speer?" "Oh," answered the
tenor, who fortunately understood the
Scotch language, 1--WE are singers" I'm
the kirk?" queried the camera manip-
ulator. "Oh, no." replied the other, 1--WE
are the opera company who are per-
forming at the theater."
The Scotchman took a step back
ward, raised his arms into the air and
cried: "Awa' Wye; ava wi vel Ye
are the deevil's BARNS, We are, and l wad
ma photograph We for naething-I mean
for onything We would offer memo,
not for a the money We TAX in week
for playin' Satan's antics on the brods.
Ertists We ca yersels! Ye are children
OF the deevil, We arel" And hgq<ssdered
them out and shut the door Against
them. This is the reason why no au-
thentic photograph of thatopera troupe
will be handed down to posterity, for
next day the tour ended and the mem
bers dispersed to their homes.- aAaau

The camel is q beast of great strength
and endurance. Nothing hurts it I'M
til the proverbial 'last straw" is added
to it's burden. The human digestive
system is very much like camel. 1t
is really astonishing how much abuse
it will stand. Sometimes, however,
something worse than usual will be
eaten, and will go through the stomach
into the bowels, and there it will stick
that's Constipation. Nine-tenths of
all human sickness is due to cOnstipa-
ton. Some of the simplest symptoms
are coated tongue and foul breath, diz-
illness, heartburn, f1atulence, sallOw-
ness, distress after eating, headaches
and lassitude. A little thing will cause
constipation, and little thing will re-
lieve it. DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
are a certain cure for constipation.

A Horrible Accident.

The terrible accident which happen.
ed to young Layton Shank of Myers
Vile, has created the most widespread
sympathy. 1t will be remembered
that he was seriously injured by the
premature explosion of large cannon;
the flame leaping up from the touch
hole burned the unfortunate youth
frightfully about the face and head.
His physicians are still dubious con-
corning his recovery and say If he
does he will be disigured for life.
