John Stader's Rough Experience in
the KIondike Saloon.

John Stader of Stockton, according
to his story to the police, had a vari-
egated bit of experience in this city
Saturday night.
He visited the Klondike Saloon on K
street. where women are employed, and
there succumbed to the Wiles of an al
legged siren who he declares succeeded
in doing him to a turn. SO we'll was
he done, in fact, that when she finally
cut him adrift he found she had rifled
his pockets to the tune of nearly Sl0O,
all the money he had.
Stader told the police he reported the
matter to one of the proprietors of the
place. or who purpOrted to be one of
them. and was bounced bodily out upon
the street. He there further COM
plained, and says he was promptly
knocked down with a pair of brass
knuckles and beaten and kicked in a
merciless manner.
Stader, as a result of the drubbing.
has a cut on the jaw several inches
long. and various other contusions. He
saws he was deliberately robbed and
then thrown out.
Complaints of the Klondike saloon
have been of considerable frequency
since Tom Norton, the former propri-
etor. went out of business, and Chief
of Police Dwyer says he will go be-
fore the Board of Trustees tomorrow
night and recommend that the license
to conduct the place be revoked.

VINE HOPPERS.
Professor HiIgard's Novel Plan for
DESTROYING Them.

To find a way in which to overcome
the vine hopper" the destructive IN
sect which is doing much damage IN
the vineyards Of the State, is prob
lem on which the agricultural scientists
of the University of California are
working. Professor c. w. Woodwork,
the entomologist. has returned from
Fresno. where the University has es-
tablished temporary laboratory for
the study of the pest. He spends sew
eral DAYS each week in the neighbor-
hood of Fresno. investigating the hab-
its of the insect.
The vine hopper has appeared in the
San Joaquin Valley and other parts
of California by myriads. Unlike most
insects it is active at ali seasons of
the wear. never alternating. 1t does
most injury in the vineyards, where it
sucks the leaves and grape stems,
greatly injuring the quality and guam
tity of the yield of the vines. 1t also
attacks other forms of vegetation. With
the growth of the Craze industry the
vine hopper has grown more common
As the insect breeds at all times of the
year. the only way to destroy the pest
is to destroy the adult insects.
Professor E. w. Hilgard, dean of the
College of Agriculture, has devised a
method of ridding vineyards of the
pest. which he is anxious to see put
In practice 1t is to mount a suction
apparatus operated by a gasoline en-
gine, upon a wagon and drive it UP and
down between the rows. A large funnel
is to be operated on each side of the
wagon. As a man walks through an
infested vineyard, the vine hoppers rise
in clouds With q sufficiently powerful
suction apparatus. with twenty-four-
inch blowers. the insects would be
drawn into the tunnels, trapped and
then destroyed.
The only way to destroy the vine
hoppers is when they are on the wing.
said Professor Hilgard. "A suction
apparatus could be easily constructed,
for blowers can be obtained at the dry
ing-houses, and most farmers have
gasoline engines. Cooperation is nee
essary to obtain results"

The prisoner (who refused to give his
name) was not then subdued, however.
He called to Sergeant McManus for a
drink of water, and when that gentle
official opened the door of the cell to
give it to him the fellow seized a broom
and assaulted him.
McManus says he didn't do a thing
to the fighter, but there must be some
mistake about that, for when he left

Two State Highways.

II. L. Marshall of Milwaukee, State
Centurion of tile Wisconsin division
OF the Century Road club Of America.
has undertaken a campaign for the
construction Of two State roads
through Wisconsin, to be built and
maintained by the State. He is push
ing his enterprise in a common-sense
way and brings sound logic TO support
its claims. The two roads, as plan
ned. will begin at Ashland and Hud-
son respectively and converge at
Madison; rom thence, one leads to
Milwaukee. and the other TO Chicago.
In order to get the matter before the
Legislature, 800 copies of a petition
will be printed and placed in the hands
of the mem bers Of the Century Road
Club in all parts of the state. Every
man and woman will be asked TO sign
this petition, and the signers agree to
pay the sum Of one dollar each toward
the public roads fund, whenever the
state shall have appropriated 5000, 900
for road improvement. For every
dollar given by the state another
dollar is to be given by riders Of
wheels. This is an undertaking that
has both dignity and feasibility. The
Century Road Club has taken it up in
real earnest, and has thousands Of
enthusiastic workers to push it along
Such splendid highways as are includ-
ed in this plan would not only be an
ornament to the State but great
economic advantage. Mr.. Marshall
deserves the liveliest commentator
and support.
