VERY USEFUL BEETLE.

IL Rid. Orange and Lemon Groves OF
Their Deadlfe.t Foes
New York entomologists have been
interested by news that has come by
way of Washington of the result OF
shipment Of beetles made by DIR. How
ard, entomoIogist of the United States
department of agriculture, TO the de-
partment of agriculture of Portugal.
The beetle in question is known to sci
ence as the Novius cardinals. Its home
is in Australia. from which country il
was introduced into California several
years ago by the board of horticulture
of that state. 1t was hoped that il would
prey upon the white or fiuted scale that
was ravasing the orange groves Of Cali
fornia.
The hope was well founded. and the
beetle, which is natural enemy of the
scale insect, is believed to have saved
the Californian orange industry from
humiliation. 1t ate up the scale bugs
with avi6ity. checking their multiplica
ton and causing an end OF the pest.
According to the Washington news. q
like result has taken place in Portugal.
DR.. Howard received an appeal for aid
from the Portuguese authorities in Sep
tember, 1895. when the scale pest was
ravaging the orange and lemon groves
along the river Tagus.
In October of last year Dr.. Howard
secured from the state board of horti-
culture of California about 60 speci-
mems of the Australian beetle in an
adult state and some larvae. These were
packed in moss with a quantity of the
scale insects for food on the way and
were transmitted to Portugal by mail.
Only five of the beetles survived the
trip. In November another colony OBJ
tanned in California was forwarded
from New York by direct steamship to
Lisbon, of which one male and five fe
males survived The beetles are noted
for their fecundity and within q few
months their progeny numbered thou
sands. These were distributed in and
about the city Of Lisbon, when they at
once set to work upon the feast of scale
bugs ready at hand The latest advices
that have reached Washington state
that the beetles now number millions
and are rapidly Kidding the country OF
the pest.-New York Sun.

DARKNESS,
1t Was Rather lnky In the
Homes Where There We're
No Lamps. on Satur-
day Night.

The artificial gas gave out on Satur.
day evening. owing to the giving way
,f some of the machinery at the gas
works. 1t began TO flicker at an early
hour in the evening, and went nearly
out frequently, then arising again 10
the proper condition. Abo1t 10 o'cloe
or little earlier the lights went out
entirely, and the people who were not
supplied with good lamps eitter went
to bed in the dark or sat up and looked
at each other by the light of the nat
ural gas Ere. Those who had furnaces
and no lamps, were In inky blaekness
and dreamed all night of getting into fhs
wrong beds and hanging their clothes
on tn floor. Many who were advanta
geously located could go to bed by moon
light. Those who desired TO sit up had
ample time for reflection, though the
light had not. There was not only
time for mental reflection. but the e
was no opposition. The gas remained
in that condition until late yesterday
afternoon. A small flame could be Sc
cured, but that was all. However,
about 6 O'Clock last evening the gas
came on once more. and there was an
abundant supply from that time on.
The incident created much annoyance.
good deal of amusement and withal

of the most IaUdable effe Is was the
opportunity it afforded for young PEG
