FIELD CORPORATION.
Meeting to Take Action Concerning
New Grand Stand.

Meeting to Take Action Concerning a
New Grand Stand.
A meeting of the field corporation
which manages the business connected
with Yale field will in all probability
be held on Friday or at least Saturday
of this week to take some definite and
immediate steps toward replacing the
grand stand destroyed at Monday
nights fire.
If it is found possible to complete a
grand stand of the size needed before
the game with Princeton, June Z, work
will be commenced Immediately. The
new stand will have a seating capacity
of about 1000. If ot,-one of the porta-
BILE stands built last fall will be moved
over to the place formerly occupied by
the burned stand.
Yesterday force of men was put at
work and every vestige OF the burned
building was cleared UP and carried
away.
The insurance on the stand amounts
in all to about $4,000, of which 5000 is
on the farming materials and $500 on
the clock.

THE MOSQUITOES SONG.

A Madrigal, Not a -Cry-How to
Catch the Singer.
You can best observe themosquito in
action by letting one settle undis-
turbed on the back of your hand, and
your blood; you can easily watch her
doing so with a pocket lens. Like the
old lady in "Pickwick," she is soon
swelling wisibly." She gorges herself
with blood, indeed, which she straight
way digests, assimilates and converts
into three hundred eggs. But if, while
she is sucking, you gently and unob-
trusively tighten the skin of your hand
by clenching your fist, you will find
that she cannot any longer withdraw
her mandibles; they are caught fast in
your flesh by their own harpoon-like
teeth, and there she must stop accord
ingly till you choose to release her If
you then kill her in the usual manner
by a smart slap of the hand, you will
see that she is literally full Of blood,
having sucked good drop of it.
The humming sound itself by which
the sosquito announces her approach
ing visit is produced in two distinct
manners The deeper notes which go
to make up her droning song are due
to the rapid vibration Of the female in
sect's wings as she flies; and these vi
brations are found by means of siren
an instrument which measures the fire.
uuency of the waves in notes. to
amount to about three thousand in a
minute. The mosquitoes wings must
therefore move with this extraordinary
rapidity, which sufficiently accounts
for the difficulty we have in catching
one. But the higher and shriller notes
of the complex melody are due to spec
ial stimulating organs situated like
little drums on the openings of the air
tubes; for the adult mosquito breathes
no longer by one or two air entrances
on the tail or back, like the larva, but
by a number of spiracies, as they are
called, arranged in rows along the
sides of the body and, communicating
with the network of internal air cham
bers.
The curious mosquito music thus
generated by the little drums serves
almost beyond doubt as a means of
attracting male mosquitoes, for it is
known that the long hairs on the an
tennae Of the males vibrate sympa-
thetically in unison with the notes Of a
tuning fork, within the range of the
sounds emitted by the, female. In 9TH
er words, hair and drums just answer
to one another. We may, therefore,
reasonably conclude that the female
sings in order to please and attract her
wandering mate, and that the anten-
nae of the male are organs Of hearing
which catch and respond to the buzz
zing music she pours forth for her low
ers ears A whole swarm of gnats can
be brought down, indeed, by uttering
the appropriate note of the race; you
can call them somewhat as you can
call male glowworms by showing a
light which they mistake for the fe-
male.-Strand Magazine.

THE HYPERION.

LIE ia PEtLlON.
Payton's Comedy company continues
to draw large audiences at the Hy-
perion. The production of Denise yes
terday afternoon was well done and
was we'll received by the audience. Last
night was presented the we'll known
comedy drama, "Only a Farmers
Daughter" The plot is the old one of a
misunderstanding between and separa-
ton of husband and wife, with the sub
sequent trials and final reunion.
Miss Florence Hamilton improved
very much over her work of the preced-
ing evening, using less defamation and
more pure acting. Tony West as Sam
Green had part which suited him well
and he produced a good impression.
The work of the entire company was
better than that of the preceding day
and is entirely worth the price that is
asked.
The specialties are very good and are
encored at every performance. The
Nichols sisters in their negro sketch are
especially fine. Baby Jane was also a
favorite. The scenes of American his
tory which are thrown upon the cam
vas between the acts are well received
by the audience.
AT the matinee this afternoon, East
Lynee will be presented. In the even
ing the comedy drama, Alone in Lon
dor, will be given. Matinee prices, 10
and 20 cents. Evening prices, 10, 20 and
80 cents. Seats are now on sale for all
the performances.
