cess appointment to Mr.. Holt as post
master at Grafton to succeed Stephen
w. Poe. The President, it will be re-
membered, sent Hollis nomination to
the Senate weeks ago, but Senator
Faulkner had it held up because the
charges on which Poe's removal was
based had not been proven, in fact they
were disproven, and Poe was displaced,
the Senator contended, because he was
a Democrat. But the President can
now get Poe out by giving Holt re-
cess appointment. which it is expected
he will do before he leaves home to-
morrow.

Dragon Fly Dimes ON Mosquito.

There are two natural enemies of the
mosquito. the dragon fly and the spider.
The latter. as we know. wages constant
warfare upon all insect Life, and where
mosquitoes are plentiful they form the
chief diet of their haiIy foe. The dra-
gon fly is a destroyer of mosquitoes in
at least two stages of life. The larva
dragon fly feeds upon the larva mos
quito. and when fully developed the
former dimes constantly upon the ma
tured mosquito. The dragon fly as 4
solution of the mosquito pest question
is not wholly satisfactory, for while
there is no serious difficulty to be ell
countered in the cultivation of dragon
flies i'll large numbers, yet it is mani
festy impossible to keep them in the
dark woods where mosquitoes abound,
the hunting ground of the "darning.
needle" being among the flowers and
dry gardens where the sunshine pre-
wallis. For this very important reason
the scheme of hunting one kind of in
sect with another must be abandoned
as impractic cable.-Washington Star.

Ope1ousas, La, Cut OFF from Food Sup-
plies by Quarantine.
For fear OF fever Opelousas, La, is face
to face with famine. The food stores in
that town are all but exhausted, and shOt-
gun quarantine in a close Gordon of neigh
boring towns makes it practically impos-
sible to bring in supplies.
The population of the town is divided!
on the question whether starvation is bet-
This question does not trouble the quar-
antine authorities. whose restrictions
have caused the shortage in Opelousas.
Nickshurg, Miss. has placed an absolute
embargo on the operation of all trains of
the Nicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific
road on the ground that the company had
violated the established quarantine regu-
lations.
1t is more than likely that the general,
quarantine in effect throughout the cotton,
belt will have an appreciable effect upon:
the price of that staple and will cause
heavy losses. The quarantine has been.
very strict against this character OF
freight, and only few of the towns in-.'
terested have as yet relaxed the severity
of original conditions. Even in these;
cases no cotton coming via infected ciriess
is allowed to pass. Atlanta is becoming.

Lake of Inklike Color.

In the middle of the Cocopah hills, III
Arizona, is what is known as the Lake
of Ink. Though supplied by beautiful
springs of clear water the liquid of the
Lake is black and of an inlllike charac-
ter. The temperature varies from 40
degrees to PIG degrees, according to the
location, and the water feels smooth
and oily. According to the Indians,
not only of the vicinity. but far awsy.
the waters of the lake have STRONG
medicinal qualities. though most white
people would hesitate to adopt the
mode of treatment prescribed. The in
