ping down from tho mountain sides upon

leaving bsrrenness and desolation IN
their wake. The hopes of the pioneers
turned TO despair "a they saw their

this dovodrirg plague, and were loud IN
lafhentation, because they regarded it as
a curse sent upon them for some short

But another extraordinary manifesto
ton was in store for the Utah pioneers.
One day the sky suddenly became dark
with endless hocks Of birds that came
from the direction of the coast. They
dropped down in thousands upon the
cricket-scourged fields. Then it was dis
covered that they were gulls. Of the kind
that at intervals were wont TO visit
Salt Lake in small and scattering groups.
Tho gulls at once set TO work at devour-
ing the crickets. From morning until
night they gorged themselves unceasing-
ly with the ravaged pests. Day after
day this singular pursuit and destruction
Of the invading insects continued until
the plague had disappeared before It.
and the gulls rose and winged their way
westward toward the Pacific. Then there
were days Of thanksgiving and praise.
FOR the crops were saved and ruin was
warded from the young Utah. 1t was
soon after this that the Legislature pass

THE MN Uf1H a GIANT SNORE.
1t Begins Like the Buzz Of "a Bee and In-
crca.es Till II H. Like "a Roar.

Helpless and perspiring on a cot at the
City Hospital lies Albert Weisse, the
heaviest man ever admitted TO the insti-
tuition az a patient. Weisse, who weighs
293 pounds. IS suffering principally from
his obesity. although his case is %diagnos-
ed as malaria. and he is subject at times
10 that disease.
Weisse was admitted yesterday morn
ms. and il took the combined efforts of
a dozen men 10 push him up the narrow
s%tairways. lie wheezed and puffed. and
was at last landed safely In ward 3. At
one time. however. his propellers thought
he had stuck fast. but 1t seems he had
only gone To sleep when half way up the
stairs. That Is one of his failings. A
physician approaches the cot on which
he lies. feels his pulse. and asks him how
he feels. Weisse starts to tell him. and
half through a sentence falls asleep.
When he wakes up half hour later he
completes the sentence.
The man snored so loudly last night
that. with the noise he made and the
heat combined, few OF the patients in the
ward were able to sleep. Weisse has been
In a number Of private hospitals. but has
been discharged because he disturbed the
other patients with his snores. These
shores are wonderful. They start with
a mild buzz, like that of a bee under a
tumbler. Then, changing in tone. they
become shriler. like the approach OF a
distant train. Nearer comes the engine,
or rather. louder is the snore. until sud
denly IL bursts forth like the roar of an
angry lion. That is the finale. Then
Welsse begins over again at the bee
stage.

do little for Weisse besides lie him. At
