A BUG THAT CAN CUT METAL
A beetle Which Is Able to Cut
Through Thin Metal.

The Zopherus Melicanus is the only
known species of American beetle that
has strength enough in its mandibles to
cut metal. This curious faculty of the
zopherus was accidentally discovered by
+. W. Devoe, a member of the New York
Microscopical Society. A friend had sent
Mr.. Devoe some specimens of this queer
species of bug from the northern
states of South America. The micros-
copist was busily engaged when the in
sects arrived, and simply provided tenn
porary quarters for the creatures in a
glass jar having a metal top in which the
porcelain cap was wanting. Within less
than As hours they had cut holes in the
metal sufficient to get their heads through
and would soon have escaped had their
operations remained undetected. BY
careful experiment Mr. Devoe found that
the force necessary to do such cutting
was equal to 1863 grammes.

CITIES AND FORESTS BURNED.
Colorado Springs Loses Million in
Buildings and Forests.

Colorado Springs, Col, Oct. 3.-This
ternoon which threatened for four hours
to destroy the entire business district.
The wind was blowing 45 miles an hour
from the southwest when the fire started
at the D. & r. G. rfeignt depot at the
foot of Cucharis street at 2:l0 p. m. and
grew rapidly. A strip four blocks long,
north to south and two blocks wide from
east to west has been burned over, but at
this hour IS p. n.y. the conflagration is
believed to be under control. The flames
are still leaping high in the air over the
burned district but the wind has died
down and there is no doubt that the fire
engines which have come from Denver and
Pueblo in response to appeals for aid, will
be able to confne the flames within the
present limits.
The Antlers hotel, one of the largest
in the west, three lumber yards and two
blocks of business houses have been des-
troyed. In round numbers the loss is
estimated at $l,OOO,OOO; insurance one
half of that amount.
The fire started in a pile of rubbish un-
derneath the platform of the Denver &
Rio Grande freight depot Within five
minutes it had communicated to freight
cars and it spread so rapidly that it was
impossible to move any of the cars. Half
car of powder consigned to G. S. Barnes
& Sons exploded. The cars ere thrown
for hundreds OF feet and the wonder is
that nobody was injured. Then came the
terrible danger to the city.
While the big fires were burning, sew
eral small ones broke out throughout the
city, destroying several residences, and
threw the people into CONSERVATION. The
limits of the burned district are the Den
yer & Rio Grande railroad on the west,
Cascade avenue on the east, Pixies Peak
avenue on the north and Cucharis street
on the south. Among the business houses
burned out are the following: mcfarland
& Hills, blacksmiths; Irving & Sons,
blacksmiths; Silver Moon restaurant,
Kelly Coal Company, Felix Americana,
Bloome, tailor; Dietz, blacksmith; John
Kline, painter; Bartlett, blacksmith ;
Dreamer & Jordan, blacksmiths; MoscO-
its, clothing; A. Sephiro, clothing; j. NJ
Holliwan, shoemaker; S. X. Kline, Jew
elry; Marlowe Bros, confectioners; Camp
bell feed store, secondhand store, restau.
rant, and grocery next to Gulf depot, Sal
Walton Army hall, Cuba Clothing Com.
pany, Seldolridge Warehouse Company
Their losses range from $500 to $4,000.
Ten partly loaded freight cars on the
/ Denver & Rio Grande tracks were burned
Several arrests have been made of per
sons suspected of starting or attempting
to start fresh fires, but there is no ques
ton that the first fire at the Denver &
Rio Grande freight house was entirely ac
cidental, possibly being caused by sparl
from locomotive.

PROGRESS OF HORTICULTURE.
4 Wonderful Growth i'm the Busi-
ness OF Selling Plants and seeds.


\ census bulletin, recently issued, al
fords an interesting exhibit Of the Stats
ties of commercial Horticulture. That hori-
culture is an industry was in the last
census for the first time made a subject
OF investigation is not surprising, when
its late development Is considereu. With
the beginning OF the century there was in
all the country but one commercial florist
Tin New York;, and t@)m that time until
1920 but three were added; in 1880 there
were but II in ALL in 1910 but 81; in
1860 the whole country contained but 1871.
Yet within the last 10 years 1900 new
concerns have been established. and $500
since 1870, the census counting in 1890 Il
total of 1869 of these enterprises, 3l2 of
which are owned and managed by wo-
men. The value of the total sales report
ed exceeds Sl2,OOO,OOO for plants, and
Sl4,OOO,O00 for cut flowers. New York is
far in the lead, with sales of nearly &c.
100000, and Pennsylvania, Illinois, New
jersey, Ohio and Massachusetts follow in
order at long distance. More than 2l,-
100000 catalogues are issued annually.
There is certainly room for great ex-
tension of this industry, for California
has shown itself to be wen adapted 10

garden seeds

SPAIN AND THE SPANIARDS.
Their Cruelty Comes From Their In
dOIence and Lack of Foresight.

1t is not true that the Spaniard is nat
urally cruel. The ferocities of which he
has unquestionably been guilty have
come from his unbusinesslike Incidence.
He let's trouble come from want of pre-
caution in time, and it finds him unpre-
pared Then he falls into the rage of the
indolent man who is aroused out of his
Incidence, and strikes savagely. Conduct
of that kind proves his incapacity for
government, and is seen at its worst
where he to deal with Creoles, who repeat
his own faults in an exaggerated form,
and with halfbreeds. For that reason,
among others, he has lost his colonial en-
pire. 1t would be a mistake, however, to
suppose that Spain is decaying. The pop
ulation has nearly, if not quite, doubled
in the present century, and the country
in itself is infinitely better off than ii
was hundred years ago. The loss OF
Cuba will be no evil for Spain, but gain,
for it will stop dreadful drain of life
and treasure. When there is no colonial
market to think of, the immense resources
of the country itself will probably be bet
ter worked. The mere mineral wealth OF
Spain ought to be enough to make it rich
If it has begun to understand the conse-
quences of bad administration, it may
well be one of the most prosperous parts
of Europe in another generation.

ment. He is the largest animal of his
kind ever produced in Custer county, if
not in Montana, and his weight is esti-
mated from 1900 to 1000 pounds.
The mineral portion of the poor farm,
100 acres, near Virginia City, has been
sold to p n Moore. representing H. G.
Bixby, trustee, for $1,000. Twenty acres

transaction is one that meets with gen
eral approval. The poor farm was pur-
chased about three years ago for $4,000
Major General Steel was in Choteau last
week for the purpose of leasing some
school land adjoining his Birch creek
ranches The major is putting up an i'm
