the hermit Of Tuxedo, Is dead. His ~lifeless re-
mains. stretched upon the floor in his rudely
constructed and ~scantily furnished shanty,
were found on Friday night by neighbors, who
had missed tho old man from his usual haunts
about Tuxedo Park. "Old Israel's' last name
was Hall. and his ago was thought to DO about
80. Although he was the father OF six children
in comfortable circumstances, despite their en-
treaties he scorned all their offers OF a home,
preferring, he said. to stick to his life of Sc
~olusion. with bis dog as his only companion.
tho conditions under which he has lived since
the death of his wife several years ago.
His fame as o hunter reached far and wide
In Tuxedo town, and the crack Of his old
fashioned long single-barrelled Tom Quick

he was never known to miss a wing shot, and

accorded him Of entering and making his exit

In disposing Of his game at good prices, and with
the proceeds and occasional assistance from

He was q great story teller. and his reminis-

residents and his neighbour on many occasions.
Years ago he was engaged as a miner in the
Sterling mines, and as q prospector he was an

A week, ago he first complained Of illness. and
little has been seen Of him since. His continued
absence on Friday induced a search, and he was
found as stated, death. being due to general
debility and heart trouble.

city. They pass from tho w~rlggler state to the
full ,flcdged pest in from twenty.four to seventy.
two hours under q benignant sun. He uses
stagnant water that holds in solution vegetable
albumen His apparatus consists OF q largo
glass jar that holds about four gallons of water
from a vat at the New Jersey Dye and Chemical
Works, of which he is the chemist. This water
contains q large percentage OF vegetable albu-
men, II Is said, from Persian berries, and IL was
the discovery of wrigglers in 1t one day that
suggested and led the doctor to investigate.
The jar. which is not completely filled with
water, is covered with nm inverted glass funnel.
The aperture at the apex OF the funnel Is stop
pcred loosely with cotton 30 as to admit a little
air. and yet prevent the escape of tho mosqui-
toes. When fully developed the mosquitoes
arise from the surface of the water and cling
to tho sides of the funnel. When the doctor
gets too large a crop on hand he injects a gas
into the jar which kills them all. 1t 10 said
here that II he liberated any mosquitoes In

Thus far the doctor has found that there are
three stages of development from larv@ to

from one.eighth to one.sixteenth Of an inch In
length. They have n tail like a sharks. and
when ut rest near the surface. of the, water are
always perpendicular. with the tail. upward:
They are very active, and ascend and descend
frequently, going to the bottom by grnvi.
to tho surface for air. When tho pupa 70
about to split and release tho Winged
bloodsucker. the wriggler rolls itself up into a
ball at the bottom OF the jar and ascends for
the last time. In tho sunlight the mosquitoes
ments soon opens the way, It 10 conjectured, out
OF his prisoning environment. The mosquito
then uses the shell as a raft until his wings are
dry. Then he takes his flight. Tho doctor says
that II the insect falls back into the water be-
fore Its wings are dry 1t browns. He hopes 10
