Tho "ysnrn 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. y
China has its visitations Of such plaques
just as regularly and more often than
has ever Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas
or Minnesota. During the time Of such
visitations in China the farmers only
remedy is to propitiate the wang, y or
''king of the locusts, with gifts They
believe that this wang" is more
monstrous insect than was ever seen by
mortal eyes. His body is leagues in ex-
tent, but his wings are 50 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 hovers over the
region of the upper air, silently direct
ing the various swarms and controlling
all their movements in time OF migra-
tons The Chinese also believe that if
d certain district or farm is to be laid
waste it is done under orders from the
wang No wonder, then, that this gi-
gantic supernatural insect is prayed to
and offered all kinds Of inducements III
order to keep his mirions from working
destruction. st. Louis Republic.

Arthur Youns's Home For Sale.

The last Of Arthur YoUng's race and
name, Nh. Arthur Young of Bradtield
Hall, Suffolk, having recently died, this
historic property is for sale. The orig
inal manor house, III which the great
farmer received some Of the most dis
tinguished men and women OF this
time, was replaced many years ago by a
Gothic mansion, but the surroundings
are little changed since Fanny Burney,
the Duke de Limcourt, and many more
historic perscnagcs visited 1t III the last
century.
Bradfeld is a sweet rustic spot, IN
spoiled by the speculative builder. Close
to the park gates of Bradiield Hall IS the
old London read followed By Arthur
Young when setting forth FOR his survey
of France Oh the eve Of the revolution
And just opposite those gates is the
churchyard, a handsome salcophagus
there thus recalling his memory:
Let every real patriot shed q ;ea-,
For genius, talent, worth lie buried here.
Arthur Young became blind III his
old age and exchanged speculative aGri-
culture for preaching. When enjoying
the hospitality of Bradfield Hall in 1889,
I learned that nonagcnarian living 1t
Bury ST. Edmunds still remembered
1.-The blind squire" and his Sunday serv-
ices. Strange to say, till the popular is
sue of the "Travels Ii France Il few
years back, the name OF this wise and
honest traveller was much better known
among French people than among our
selves.-London Standard.

MAGNET FOB POWER.
The Continuance by Which nn Inventor
Expects to Draw a Carriage.

Expects to Draw u Sarrisise.
Gibson Hszelhurst of Beach Springs,
Nesilooa county, Miss, an inventor un-
known to fame, is endcavorlng 10 inter
est capital i'll a scheme he has perfected
for the running of vehicles that he
claims will revolutionize the world, says
the Boston Traveller. Ec will make 1t
nossible. he says, for anybody to have
n wagon thatwill run without horses at
practically no expense beyond wear and
tear. ''In brief" he explains, my III
vention works this way: 1 will take an
ordinary locomotive, for instance, tear
all the works ont of it and place new
wheels on it. These wheels are an in
vention of my own and are made accord
ing to plan have perfected after sew
aral years of study. The secret OF the
construction lies in the tires, which are
made of wood and steel. l have invent
ed magnet of rare power and lasting.
In front of each of the wheels l place
che of these magnets ut an angle known
only to myself. The magnets Will be ar
ranged in sliding grooves, connected
with levers under the control Of the
driver. When tho vehicle Is standing
still, they are kept far enough away
from the wheels to lose the effect. When
it is desired to start, all that is neces-
sary is for the driver to pull one of the
levers, the magnet gets close enough to
the wheel to get the current to work,
the steel portions of the tire are drawn
toward the magnet, and the wheel goes
around.
The speed can be regulated by the
distance the magnet is held from the
wheel by the lever. If lead is being
pulled, or if it is intended TO go faster
than one magnet can draw, 1t Is an easy
matter to put one or more Of the other
magnets in operation. / figure that
with four of my patent wheels, each
equipped with one of my improved mag
nets. will be able to move al ordinary
locomotive drawing Il train of eight
Pullman cars, at from 200 to 400 miles
an hour, as long as the passengers on
the train can stand the strain.
1t was suggested TO the inventor that
it seemed likely 10 man who knew
nothing about il that u train OF cars
would be necessary 10 go III front of the
engine and carry the magnets, Not AT
ali; not at all, " remarked Mr.. Hazel
hurst enthusiastically. ION the con-
trary, the magnets are not much larger
than flour barrel The power i'll them
is placed there by process known only
to me. I can take an ordinary pocket
magnet, treat it with my preparation
and put enough power il 1t to lift a
crowbar. 4"

A Modern Creek Zero.

Some of our famous athletes may
think republics uDgrateful when they
compare their treatment TO that OF the
Greek who won the recent foot race from
Marathon to the stadion. Nothing, !"
says the correspondent Of the London
Chronicle, illustrates the character Of
the modern Greek so much as The eX-
traordinary attention shown to the Win
ner of this race. He has been treated as
a sort Of GenIigod All his sayings are
duly reported; he has been escorted in a
carriage by IL detichi2eEt Of troops.
When he walks i'll the streets, crowds of
respectable men aid women follow, and
the king of Greece has not only shaken
hands with him, but both he and his
father have been invited to tie palace
Private individuals lave given him
large sums of money; Wine dealers, gro
GERS and numerous other tradesmcn have
offered TO supply all his requirements
for year free of cost, and I barber has
been reported as having offered to shave
him and cut his hair for the period Of
his lifetime free of cost"

Labouobere on Epeland,s troubles,

Henry Labouchere has no sympathy
with England in the troubles that she
has brought upon herself. Patrick Nc
Carthy, an Irishman in America" he
writes, lone day found a blanket be-
longing to the government stores marked
in large letters U. S. for United
States. Paddy Immediately annexed the
blanket, remarking: 'Yis, that's moline
u for Pathrick, S for Mccarthy. Be
my sowl, but this larnin is a foine
thing. If had not been well edicated,
I would niver av known the blanket TO

Forced the Artist to Work.

The famous japanese painter, hyosai,
worked only when he was i: the mood,
and the most munifcent offers failed to
induce him TO accept q commission I'M
less the spirit moved him. One Of his
admirers, Mr. Kato Shoyo Of Hongo,
had vainly attempted to induce the way
ward artist to begin painting for him
Kyosai would not budge. Kato there
upon devised and put into execution u
novel plan. He bought a spurious Kaic-
mono, or hanging picture " When
next the artist paid him visit, this
was produced and lauded to the skies
Kato declared that the daub was the
greatest masterpiece of Kyosai's skillful
hands. In vain the indignant painter
protested that it was IL worthless coun-
terfeit. Finally he rushed away III a
rage, while kato rubbed his hands at
the success Of his Iuse.
Confident Of the result, Kato invited
some friends for the following evening
and related to them the device he was
employing. They waited for the advent
of Kyosai, and at last, but not until the
small hours of the morning, he appear
cd. He held roll in his hand a Kake-
mono, on which was depicted a falcon
in the act Of clutching monkey. This
he threw toward the host, at the same
time asking in an angry voice whether
Kato still persisted i'll attributing the
other picture to him. The collector, de-
lighted with the success of his plan and
with the vigor and beauty of the draw
ing he had now obtained, apologized to
Kycsai and explained the trick. The
painters brow was quickly cleared of
its dark clouds, and i'll turn he confessed
that he had been working day and night
in order to produce a picture that should
vindicate his talents. = Manchester
