To ria a Room of insects,

A family moving into an old house a
year or so ago was unpleasantly surpris-
ed to find that the former occupants had
been lacking in housewifely qualities,
and after sleeping in the house night
or so it was discovered that there was
more insect life than was agreeable. To
follow old fashioned methods was too
slow, and instead three sulphur candles
were purchased, the house was shut up
after the candles had been lighted and
left to itself for three hours At the
end Of that time everything living inside
had been killed. and there was no trou.
bic afterward The family moved to an
other floor in the same house, repeated
the same operation. with the same sue
cess, and. removing again to their origi-
nal floor, for third time repeated the
operation. 1t worked without fail but
metal of any kind in the room had to be
taken out or it would have turned black.

A M, sterious Box.

There is a mysterious package in the

ed with the bank in the lifetime Of the
first Duke of Wellington, with instrue-
tons that it was not to be opened except
with his consent and that of two or three
other persons of great eminence. all OF
whom have long ago been dead. 1t has
always been supposed that it contained
state papers of the highest importance.

A tree which deserves more atten-
ton than it receives is the Eastwood
or linden. But few trees excel it as a
shade tree. Its foliage is almost trop-
ical in appearance; it is always clean
and free from vermin; it is as hardy
as any tree we have, and its bloom
is exceedingly fragrant and a choice
honey producer. 1t is not an easy
tree to transplant and get started, the
young trees being hard to find in the
woods, but when once well started it
is rapid grower and in every way de-
sirable as shade tree.

NEW COURT HOUSE.
Not to Exceed 100000 to Be
Built bv Direct Lew.
This 10 the Sentiment of the County
Expressed by Representative Men
From Fac. Township.

Pursuant to ~"que.t Of the county
court, represent,,tive men from nine
teen out OF the twenty-four townships
of Bates county, met with the court
on Monday to discuss the question
of whether or not it is advisable in
the court to call special election to
vote on the proposition to build a
new court house not to exceed
100000. Judge Sam West was elect
ed chairman OF the meeting and 0.
d. Austin, secretary. On the call of
the roll OF townships the following
names were certified as accredited
delegates:

On call OF townships each dele
gate expressed the sentiment OF his
people SO far as he could learn by in
quiry. The great preponderance OF
this sentiment was in favor OF the
court calling a special election and
submitting proposition to the vot
ers to build court house by direct
levy, not to exceed 100000. This
was embodied in resolution and
carried by IL large majority.
Mr.. Ferguson, as chairman of the
Rich Hill delegation, said that his
people would build $4,000 court
house if the people would remove the
county seat TO that town. Mr.. Simp-
son of Charlotte, said the people OF
Bates are not paupsrs and are not
asking any town to build their pub
lie buildings. This retort struck a
responsive chord with the delegates
There is no doubt that four fifths OF
the self-respecting citizens OF Bates
county will take that view of it. The
chairman very properly sustained the
point of order against Mr.. Ferguson
motion, that the question of a change
of county seat was not under discus
: sion.
