TIMELY SUGGESTION.

MON EMENI IL REDUCE The FALL.
OR WINTER SESSION OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY - COVER
NOR'S SPECIAL MESSAGE.
Stan Correspondence Evening Journal
Dover, May 20.-There is now some
talk OF the General Assembly appoint
ing counsel to codify, during the Sum-
mer recess, the laws to conform with
the new Constitution. Speakers Hai-
rington and Riggin have already
talked the matter over and both agree
that IL would be a good thing and
serve to reduce the Fall or Winter ses-
sion OF the General Assembly to a
minimum. The result of this confer
ence has already been circulated among
the members and is regarded by many
as a good thing, for nearly everyone
is averse 10 coming back here next
Winter and staying for three or four
months.
There is a prevailing feeling that the
adjourned session ought not to begin
until the first of December or the first
Of January. This is because nearly all
of the members have lost the advan-
tage of Spring and early Summer
work, and do not care to lose next
Falls work in the same manner.
There now seems to be an impress
sion that both houses will adjourn on
next Friday until December l or Janu-
airy l.
GOVERNORS SPECIAL MESSAGE.
Secretary of State Boyce presented
to the General Assembly a special mes
sage from the governor in relation to
the states deaf and dumb benehciaries.
IL recommends that in addition to the
| $500 appropriated yearly for each bene-
iciary an additional sum of $50 year
for clothes for each beneficiary.
The House referred it to the Com
mittee on Appropriations and the Sem
ate to the Committee on Finance.
Later in the day the House adopted
and the Senate concurred in a resolu-
ton carrying out the recommendations
made by the governor in his special
message.

tions against them by the State Board
of Agriculture. In the opinion of Dr.
Howard the work in Massachusetts is
the most interesting experiment in the
chronological line which has ever been
attempted in this country, and is with
out doubt one of the most expensive.
Since 1890 $3.50, 900 has been appropri-
ated for destroying the moth in MasSa-
chusetts. $4,000 of this being used
this year.
The gypsy moth (porthetria dispar)
is from Europe. and is supposed to
have been imported to this country
about 20 years ago by Leopold Tlon-
Welt. a French entomologist. He
brought some of the eggs to expert
ment with silk worms in some direc-
tfons, and it is supposed these blew
out of his window. Since then they
have increased in such large numbers
and their depredations have been so
great on all sorts of vegetation that
steps were taken in 1889 to destroy
them.
When first noticed the moth began
to work in an area of about 200 square
miles in the vicinity Of Boston. Since
the State Board has begun a crusade
very largely reduced.
The caterpillars are now full grown
and are feeding on the vegetation.
They appear in large numbers, and
when they have visited trees and
shrubs no foliage remains.
The caterpillar is about two inches
and a half long. 1t devolves into
chrysalis state, from which the moth
emerges. They are distributed over the
territory by clinging to the garments
of persons. street cars and other NOV
ing objects.
In winter the eggs are found on trees,
houses. fences and such other station
arv objects in large white patches, con-
tanning from 500 to 700. They are
SPRAYED with an oily preparation which
kills them In May and June the lar
vac are sprayed with a mixture con-
tanning arsenic The trees on which
they are found are bound round with
a burlap band The larvae collect I'M
der these bands and are killed there
They are also eXterminated IN large
numbers by clearing up the woodland
Persons engaged in the work go
through the forest, cut out the under
brush and burn it. Only the trees are
left standing In this manner millions
of the larvae are killed. The female
moth cannot fly, owing to her heavy
bodv. and is easily destroyed on this
account. The caterpillars have not ap-
neared in any other State but Massa-
chusetts.
The Board of Agriculture of Massa-
chusetts is also disturbed by another
moth. known as the brOwn-tailed moth,
which ic confined to SOmerville and
Cambridge, having been found there IN
May of this year. 1t is also native OF
Europe, and. it is thought, was Drought
here in young trees which were I'M
ported.

Nearly every one knows Dunn. In
the early days of his Honolulu career
he used to put fake ads in the news

time he advertised the loss of dia-

Occidental Hotel. At that time the I'M
derpinning of the hotel was not laid,
consequently its location was not gen
orally known, so that nearly every one
asked where the Occidental Hotel was.
Dunn was the architect of the building.
AT another time he told the news
