tour of the world just before noon
last Tuesday when he left the home
of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Corn

those most deeply interested in
him wished that it should be.

Vanderbilt with w. Fitzhugh

War on the Grasshoppers.

Grasshoppers are now so thick
in eastern Colorado, western Neb-
raska and Kansas the entomology
lists have decided to hold meet
ing in the near future to discuss
what can be done to destroy the in

ference yesterday with Secretary

Prof. Binner left later in the day
to talk over the situation with
Profs. G. p. Gillette and S. j.

Fort Collins. The grasshoppers
covering the country have canni-

day last summer, and after making
his examination, wrote q prescrip-

George. what do you make of

As he spoke the question, Engi.
neer Sam Stokes swung himself
from bis cab, and turned to his re.
lief, who stood waiting to take his
place.
George Hoskins looked up at the
curling cloud to which Sam pointed
and shook his head, dubiously.
Cant say, Sam. Likley to be a
rough night, though, reckon =
'Rough? You just bet it will

George, pausing with his foot on
the cab step.

not be fooling round there, much,

to his stoker to fire up, and, with
bis hand on the regulator, took
another glance out of the window.
Going TO have squall, Mr.. Eos

4 rather judge we are, Ben,' said
George. But guess we can take
her through, in spite Of it,
'Ay, ay, sir p replied Burke.
But l don't admire the look Of
that there sky, up there-not any

Neither did George. The clouds
were taking on the ominous brassy-
green tinge which always means mis-
chief, and the wind, now and again
dying to only faint .murmur. anon
swelled into a low, long, hoarse
moan, a sullen, angry growl, not
pleasant TO hear. Not even when
one had a safe cellar to fly to, at
the approach of the storm. But
when it cane to running train
crowded with human beings, over
all the long trestles, across high
fills and that dangerous bridge
at Beaver Dam, man had need of
a COED deal of cool courage.
George had plenty of it, his eye
was clear. his hand steady; aud if
the passengers on that train bad
known how strong and brave an en-
gineer stood at his post in front Of
them, there might have been fewer
anxious glances cast out Of the car
windows.
The threatening sky darkened
lower and lower, the hoarse moan
of the wind rose aud fell dismally
among the forests as the train raced
and ratified on its way, making thir-
ty miles an hour with ease to the
noble engine that painted IN front

ga well-known young naval
dignitary has q beautiful daughter.
A young lieutenant, with no re-
sources but his pay, fell in love
with her and asked the old gentle
man for her hand. The father at
once taxed him with the fact that
he had only his pay, hardly enough
to keep him in white gloves and
burnish his brass buttons.
"Well, Mr.. Admiral, what you
say is true; but when you married
you we're only q mldshipman. With
even smaller pay than mine. How
did you get along ?" asked the lieu
tenant, who believed he had made
the most diplomatic Of defenses.

Dell left behind themI and George
began to hope that they would get
to Reedsburg before thestorm broke.
Suddenly the wind quite died,
and a warm breath swept through
the window where George was watch
ing. The lightning still flashed
and played fitfully, of deep Grim
son hue, suggesting the idea of lu-
rid flames waiting to enWrap the
unwsry travellers, but the air had
grown so still that Ben remarked,
hopefully:
Il believe we will get trough with
out much trouble
Not much, we're not 7 replied
George, in low, constrained voice.
Look out here, Ben Take peep
at that thunderhead up there in the
north, will you 2
Ben stepped up and looked out.
Two immense clouds, very black
and jagged, were sweeping toward
each other in the north, and SEEM
ing as if about to sweep down d.
rectly upon the earth.
Lord save us There's more
than thunder in them things . ex-
claimed the stoker., we shall have
to run for it, if we out race them

depressed bis hand on the lever,
and Ben turned to obey, muttering
to himself:
Best engine ever made couldn't
outrun that black thing up there ?
And just then there came a new
sound-what was it t?-the wind
rising in the great forest back of
the mountain, or all the bears in
the caves rushing out to growl to-
gether. Or was it the thunder
pealing overhead, and the earth
quake iarring the solid ground be-
meath them ?
Name o. the Lord, George, what
is that ? asked Ben, with white
lips.

and the upper dam had given away,
letting down the food OF waters
stored behind it, Down it rushed,
the waves lifting white, angrY crests,
as if eager to destroy all in its way!
The bridge, which they had al
most reached, began to totter, and,
with a shrill whistle to down
brakes George reversed his lever
aud brought his train to stand
still, jnst as Conductor Blackwell,
with anxious face, came into the
cab.
well, George, what's to be done
now p be asked, in q troubled tone.
Whatever is done must be done
quickly, sir ? was Georges prompt
reply. st would be madness to try
to take the train over that shaky
bridge. But, if ron will give the
the order. sir, / think I can run
the engine over before she goes
down, and race the storm into Reeds

You in by way Of Hampton Siding.
