THE ENEMY.
Entomologist Lugger Devises Plans for Overs
coming Troublesome Pest.

Anything pertaining to the cate1pil-
lar pest, which is making life miserable
for those who live in the country, is sure
to prove OF interest. Here is what the
state entomologist, Prof. Lugger, says:
There are two kinds of caterpillars
found in our state and they are at pres
ent very thick. I fear they will cause
considerable damage. The species,
known as the genuine orchard tent cat
erpillar, is distinguished by the habit it
has of building large tent as home
for its young. There are sometimes
400 or 500 in tent. This specie is u.s.
ually found on peach, plum, cherry and
apple trees. The second specie does not
form such conspicuous tent, but forms
webs near the branches of the trees IN
tested. The latter specie prefers the lin
den. Both species however are general
feeders. The best time to destroy both
species is in the fall, winter or early
spring when the tree Is bare. The moths
of the caterpillar fly early in July and
deposit their eggs in the shape of regu-
lar rings around some of the smaller
twlgs. They can readily be seen and
should be at once removed. OF course,
it is now too late for this operation. As
soon as the nests or tents are formed, the
worms become quite visible. They feed
but twice day and the rest of the day
are huddled together near or upon their
nest. By using a torch, most of them
can be destroyed, Such torch can be
made of a soft brick, fastened to pole
and saturated with kerosene. A sponge
saturated in the same way and fast
ened to pole, can also be used with
deadly. results. Many other meth
ods will suggest themselves. One OF
the best ways to kill these worms, is to
use Paris rreen. By mixing small
amount, say a spoonful, with water, we
| possess a liquid which Will kill all The
worms. It should be sprayed upon their
food. i For this purpose number. OF
spraying machines are upon the market
The park and street commissioners
should take the matter in hand and see
that some method is at once put in op-
GRAFTON to kill the pests, as they are very
destructive and will ruin large number
of trees if left alone. There is also d
substance sold as ''raupentine" and an
other as .sdendrollne' which are effect
i've to paint rings around branches. They
are exceedingly sticky and the worms in
ascending or descending are caught.
As q general rule the caterpillars will
remain il agiyen locality for ABOUT three
summers, when they will disappear for
9 term Of years. This is caused BY q PEE
culiar disease. | am sorry to say that 50
far it has been impossible for me to
multiply this disease which is caused 81

behind the rest of his party searching
for something upon the ground. Saxon
and his councillors also turned, walk
ing toward their escort, but Aziei lin
gered a little. fearing no danger, and
being curious to learn what the men
sought.
What do you seek, captains?" he
asked courteously.
"A gold armlet that one of us has
lost" they answered.
Aziel let his eyes wander on the
ground and not far away perceived the
armlet half hidden in a tussock of
grass, where, indeed, it had been plac d.

it and holding it toward them.

The next moment, before he had even
guessed their purpose, they had gripped
him by either arm and were dragging
him at full speed toward the camp
Understanding their treachery and the
greatness of his danger, he cried aloud
for help, and, throwing himself swift
ly to the ground, set his feet against a
stone that CHANGED to lie in their path
in such fashion that the sudden weight
tore his right arm from the grip of the
man that held it. Now, quick as
thought, he drew the dagger from his
girdle, and still lying on his back,
plunged it into the shoulder of the sec
ond man so that he loosed him in his
pain. Then he sprang to his feet, and,
leaping TO one side to escape the rush
of his captors. ran like a deer toward
the party of Saxon, who had turned at
the sound of his cry.
Ithobal and his men had also turned
and sped toward them, but at a little
distance they halted. the king shouting
aloud:

"A woman to be feared" thought

went toward the city, cit is i'll to speak
such words to an honored guest, but
it cannot be denied that you bring
much trouble upon my head. Twice
now you have nearly persisted at the
hands of Ithobal, and should that
chance, doubtless 1 must earn the
wrath of solomon. On your behalf,
also, the city of Zimboe is this day
plunged into war that well may be
her last, since it because you have
grown dear to her that my daughter
refused the suit of Ithobal and because
of his outraged pride at this refusal,
that he has stirred up the nations
against us. Prince, while you remain
in this city there is no hope of peace.
Do not, therefore, hate me, your serv-
ant, if l pray of you to leave US while
there is yet time"

TO abandon the worship of your faith

Baaitis?"
You know well that I am not so
prepared, Saxon; for nothing that the
would could give me would 1 do this
thing"
Then, prince. it is best that you
should so. for that and no other is the
price that you must pay if you would
win my daughter, ELISA Should you
seek TO do so by other means, [ tell
you that neither your high race, nor

CHAPTER X-Continued
When Metem reached Saxon and the
ENJOYS he found that message had
already been sent to them announcing
that King Ithobal would meet them
presently upon the plain outside his
camp. But stU he did not come; in
deed it was not until Saxon had dis
patched another messenger, saying that
he was about to return TO the city, that
at length Ithobal appeared at the head
of a bodyguard of black troops. Ar
ranging these in line in front Of the
comp, he came forward. attended by Il
or Il councillors and generals, all of
them unarmed. and halted half way be-
tween his own line and that of the
Phoenicians, hut out of bowshot Of
either.
Thereon Saxon, accompanied by a
similar number Of priests and mobiles.
among whom were Aziel and Metem, all
of them also unarmed, except for the
knives in their sirdles. marched out to
meet him. leaving their escort drawn
up upon the hillside.

tion had passed, for we have waited
long upon your pleasure, and already

that servants should bide at the door

in dark cloaks. might have been seen
/ walking swiftly toward the little en-
/ trance of the temple fortress. AL
though it was near to midnight. the
city was still astir with men, for news
had reached it that Ithobal was ad
vancing at the head of tens of thou
| sands of the warriors of the tribes, and
| that within the next few days siege
/ would begin. Late as it was. the coun-
] ell had been but just summoned to the
palace of Saxon to consider the conduct
of the defense. while in every street
/ stood knots of men engaged in anxious
discussion, and from many a smithy
came the sound of armorers at their
work. Here marched parties of SOL
diers of various races; there came
strings of mules laden with dried fish
and grain: yonder a woman beat her
breast and wept loudly because her
three sons had just been impressed by
order of the council, two of them to
serve as archers and the third to carry
blocks of stone for the Notifications.
Passing unnoticed through all this
press and tumult, Aziel. ISSachar and
Metem entered the winding passage in
the temple wall and came to the little
gate. Metem tried it and whispered:
She has kept her word; it is I'M
locked. Now enter to your love tryst.
holy Issachar
DO you not come with us?' asked
the Levite
No; l am too old for such adven-
lures. Listen. I go to make ready.
/ Within an hour the mules with the
princes escort will stand in the arch
way near the small gate of the palace.
for by now the bagga ge and its guard
await us a days march from this ac-
cursed city. Will you meet me there?
No; l think it is best that I should
come to your chambers 10 fetch you;
and, l pray you. let there be no delay,
for it is dangerous in many ways.
When once the prince has done with
his tender interview and wiped away
his tears, there should be nothing 10
stay him, since the farewell cup with
Saxon has already been drunk. Enter
now swiftly, before some prowling
priest happens upon you. and pray that
you may come out as sound as you go
in. Oh what a sight A prince of
Israel and an aged Levite of estab-
lished reputation going to keep a tryst
at midnight with the high priestess of
Baaltis in the sanctuary of her god.

prince told all. hiding nothing.
