KANSAS ORCHARD PEST.
Fruit Growers Urged to Take Precautions
Against Canksr Worms.

Against Canksr Worms.
Topeka, Kan, March 31.--In view
of the ravages of Kansas orchards
last year by canker worms, the State
Horticultural Society is taking ex-
traordinary prscaution against the
pest this season. It is known that
the eggs were deposited in nearly
every fruit county in the state last
year, and already the female moths
are making their appearance in great
numbers this spring. President
Wellhouse says that every fruit
grower should be in readiness to
spray the trees just as soon as the
foliage appears. The worm, when
Matched, is SO small as to be inde-
scribable, and feeds on the leaves
and buds Of the fruit trees until full
grown. When grown it drops to the
ground, and digs its way into the
earth, there to remain until it again
appears as a moth the following
spring. The canker worm, whsn full
grown, is but little over an inch in
length, and is of the "meas, -"
variety. It is dark olive green in
cslor, with a black, shining head,
aud has the faculty Of spinning
fine silken thread, by the aid of
which it often suspends itself from
the foliage The worms are Matched
about the time the first foliage ap-
pears on the fruit trees and contin
ues growth until about the middle |
of May, when they drop from the
trees and go into the ground. Presi-
dent Wellhouse recommends spray

The First Spiritual Society of Universal
Brotherhood held It's meeting as usual in
Memorial hail. Odd Fellows block, last
evening. Mrs. Mary c. Lyman, the pastor
discoursed upon the subject: 1.-THE Power OF
Thought" The speaker said: "Our
thoughts are real substances. and leave
their images upon our very personality;
they I'LL our aura with beauty or ugliness,
according to our intents and purposes In
life. There are persons who can see our
thought images. One who ponders well
over these facts will be forced to feel the
Importance of thinking his or her best

our success and failures. II life seems sad
and full Of misfortune. ponder well upon the
companions In thought you have enter

bring forward the subject in mind for con.
temptation and consideration. Ask your
self: Have I, with true righteousness, well
considered the needs Of my fellowmen?
For omnisfon is as great sin under
the law as commission. Blessed Is the
peacemaker, for such build the kingdom OF
heaven and lead the many out Of the world
Of darkness into eternal happiness"

Universal Brotherhood

At the Universal Brotherhood organiza-
tion, 56 West Fifth street, Leonard Lester
Of Pasadena lectured last night. His sub
ject was For the Benefit of the People Of
the Earth and All Creatures In brief
he said: 1.-THE principle animating all evo-
luton IL altruism. All great men and
movements have to a certain extent sacri-
feed themselves to the race, and in doing
this have fallen into line with the universal
law, which is harmony and compassion All
men, all races. are fragments Of the divine
In their virtues and vices we can see In all
nations larger expression Of our own, but
behind them all 10 the divine spirit of
brotherhood. In the present war the true
nature Of Spain Is not represented, and the
true spirit Of America is shown only in the
extent that Its effort is to benefit humanity
and not for possessions or revenge. This
effort places America at the head Of ma
tons, in that 1t embodies a principle. viz
that the most advanced exist for the benefit
OF the ignorant and oppressed.

SUNDAY AT REDoNDo
ity Fathers Refuse to Change the Mid
night Closing Ordinance

REDONDO, July H.-This resort has en-
joyed such a flood of gayety for the past
three days that every one has been busy
keeping UP with the procession. A two
days tennis tournament, with all the at
tendant excitement of big crowds and
close matches, would naturally make
things gay while 1t lasted. Yesterday even
ing the tournament was concluded, and
the event was celebrated with hop at the
Redondo hotel. The affair was the largest
held here so far this season, and was fit
ting climax to a most successful tourna-
ment. Most Of the spectators who had come
to witness the play remained for the even
ing, and many others came down from
Los Angeles particularly for the dance.
The effect Of the past few days Of hot
weather in the interior has been to drive
a number to the seaside. A great many cot
tages that have remained vacant UP to the
present time have been taken within the
past week. The crowd Of Sunday visitors,
too, was unusually large today. The Sew
enth Regiment band gave an open-air con-
cert both morning and afternoon.
Redondo has just passed through slight
wave Of domestic disturbance on the much
agitated question Of saloon closing. At the
last meeting Of the city council week age
a petition was presented by the saloon men
praying for the amendment of the present
ordinance, which prohibits the sale OF
liquor after midnight. AS the matter was
brought up rather suddenly. the council
decided to postpone action until later. Fri
day night special meeting was called for
the purpose of disposing of the question
