Has the kissing bug made its APP

been blushingly boasting for some
time of having experienced the unen-
viable embrace. But as'to the queer bug
hat has made its appearance in Rock
Island. This bug. so far as known
did not get in its sting before being
captured, possibly because it was the

Moline, But it was captured and
brought to THE ARGUS office in a shoe
box. 1t was dispatched first, but not
without a struggle. Ammonia had no
effect and finally scalding water did
the business.
Capture OF the Bug.
The suspicious appearing insect was
captured at the home of +. f. Potter,
sos Twelfth street, shortly before
noon, being discovered on the front
porch, and Mr.. Potter's father. Prof.
j. Potter of Davis, Ill, and who was
formerly superintendent of schools OF
StepheDsO county, and who is n visi-
tor in the city, stated that he had
never seen anything of the insect kind
Just like it before. He has up to this
time taken no stock in the kissing
bug craze, and while the insect in
question bears some resem blance to
the locust family, he thinks it diff
ferent species, and also regards it as
of n poisonous nature. The bug
brought to THE ARGUS Office is two
inches in length, is mainly distin-
guishable by the long fangs, although
in general appearance it is not what
would be regarded as a household
treasure.
Word comes from South Moline to-
day that a South Moline farmer is
carrying q lip as big as IA lemon, the
effect, he maintains, of the impress OF
kissing bug.
