Savannah August 81.

Hon. seunoFn W FiBhN 10 speak IN
Savannah August 81.
Savannah, as we'll as other prominent
cities in Georgia. and along with the coun-
try settlements is going to be made a
field for prohi-populistic work.
Hon. Seaborn Wright, the candidate Of
this faction for governor will be here to
address the citizens Of Savannah, Monday,
Aug. 81. He has made up a list Of APP
pointments, and after going to Waycross
and Brunswick will come here. 1t is not
known yet Just where he win make his
speech Those members OF the party re-
siding in and about Savannah wanted
TO get the theater for him, but they do
not think they will be able to secure II at
that time. They have as yet made no ar
Tangement about hall.
Mr.. u. n. Clark, the nominee on the
ticket for attorney general. thinks there
IS no hall in the city outside Of the thea
ser that Is large enough to hold the crowd
that will gather to hear Mr.. Wright, and
for that reason they were very anxious
TO secure the theater.
Mr.. Wright has made appointments run
ming pretty nearly up TO the time OF the
election, and there is undoubtedly going
TO be some hot campaigning in Georgia.
1t is not known as yet whether or not any,
one will come with him

Marcus, the three gamblers, who were
indicted by the grand jury of the supe-
rior court, and who made their escape
from the city Immediately after being in
dicted, have been located near Augusta,
and will probably be back in Savannah
this morning.
These are three Of the four men indict-
ed about a month ago. They got out Of
the city before the bench warrants could
be served on them, and the grand jury. i'm
its general presentments, took the sheriff
to task for not having caught them
Sheriff Roman learned that they were
in or near Augusta, and at once wired
the sheriff Of Richmond county to arrest
them. Somehow or other they heard of
II and telegraphed to friends here to ar
range things for them, as they did not
desire to be arrested. Thereupon bond in
the sum of $1,000 for each OF the defend
ants was given, and they will arrive In

Knives FLASH IN PANCAKE LANE
Policeman Jernignn's stern Chase
After n Fugitive Negro.


Two colored women, residents of Pani-
cake lane, engaged in a difficulty yesterday
morning. which proved rather serious for
one of them. Vena Brown was badly
wounded with a knife in the hands of
Diana Houston. The latter, seeing thar
her antagonist was seriously hurt. fed.
She was pursued by a crowd but the
woman had too much the start and sue
ceeded in making her escape.
little later another fight occurred in
Pancake lane, growing, it is supposed,
again a woman, who was beaten and cut
by a man. The latter was pursued
through the streets OF Yamacraw by Po-
hceman Jernigan, but finally escaped
across the canal.

Inspired by her perfect faith and god

home. She induced the king to be
crowned in due form at Reims and
asked for al honorable discharge, but
she was detained, and the English, who
afterward captured her, burned her to
death at Rouen in 1881 on the charge of
sorcory. Those who did this afterward
regretted it and felt mortified. Her
death did the invaders no good, but

Henry was d disappointment, and, as
Bedford was dead, the Duke Of Glouces-

Beaufort, his guardian, had. up to his
majority, been the powers behind the
throne.
Henry married Margaret of Anjou, a
very beautiful and able lady, who pos

king, They were married in 1445, and,

time. So he returned, but at Agincourt
was surprised by the French army, four
times as large as his own, and with a
loss of 40 only he slew 10, 900 of the
French and captured Il, 900. What the
French were doing while this slaughter
was going Oh the modern historian has
great difficulty in figuring out. This
battle occurred in 1915 and two years
after Henry returned to France, hoping
to do equally well. He made a treaty
at Troyes With the celebrated idiot,
Charles vi, and promised to marry his
daughter Catherine, who was to sue
coed Charles upon his death and try to
DO better. Henry became regent OF
France by this ruse, but died i'll 1922
and left his son Horny, less than a year
old. The kings death was 4 sad blow
to England, for he was an Improvement
on the general run Of kings. Henry V
left a brother, the Duke of Bedford,
who became protector and regent of
France, but when Charles the Imbecile
died his son, Charles VII, rOse, to the
occasion, and war of some years be-
gan. After some time Bedford invaded
southern France and besieged Orleans.

little beetle responsible for this MIS-

length and one-third as wide. Il is
nearly black in color, somewhat cy!in-
drical in general form, and under

ing Of yellowish hairs on the head and
wing covers. The head ia vertical and
the laws are short and stout The
beetle is shown in Fig. J, very much
enlarged.
The adult beetle after making hole
in the tree, deposits her eggs in little
grooves made in the inner bark.
The young, that hatch from these
eggs, feed upon the inner bark and sap
wood, making long channels running
in all directions from the central
groove. These young worms frequent-
ly become so numerous as to complete

case may be. The young have no feet.

They transform in these channels. and

thus making more openings similar to
the ones made by the female when de-
posting her eggs. There are probably
two broods each year. One brood de-
rosits its eggs in September and the
insect passes the winter as larvae or
worms under the bark. These trans
form in the spring, and begin to emerge
as adults as early ms the middle Of
March. / have also found full grown
lnrvae the last Of July.
The fact that the fall brood passes
the winter in the larvae state, the first
remedy that suggests itself, is the cut
ting down and destruction, by burning
of all infected trees during the winter.
would recommend this procedure only
in extreme cases or where the trees are
OF no special value. An atteI0pt at exc
termination would mean the absolute
destruction of every tree showing even
the least attack. Experimentation with
various sprays and washes for control-
ing this pest has not been carried for
ward very rapidly. Trees sprayed with
a strong solution of Bordeaux mixture
end Paris green combined, at about
double the strength which is generally
used, have given very promising re-
suits. The first application should be
made about April and the second two
weeks later. In order to be most eff
fcctual, the spraying should be done
l,efore any of the characteristic marks
of the insect are found upon the trees
as it will be much easier to prevent the
attack than to destroy the beetles after
they have once entered the tree.-Prof-
