Mahoney Guy, Pa, Sept o The
trouble expected here as result of the
Shenandoah riot failed to materiahze
because the miners did not show up for
work this morning. The closing Of
the collieries here adds 10000 to the
strikers ranks. It is feared trouble
will occur this afternoon if the opera
tors attempt to work the colleries.

species usually take to it, changing
their food habits to that extent. The
sugar beet has had it's full quota Of in
sect enemies and not the least among
them has been the pale flea beetle.
Of an inch in length and is yellowish
brown in color. Down each wing cover
extends a yellow stripe.
All the severe injury has been dur
ing dry weather. The danger is con-
fined largely to the early part of the
season, while the plants are young and
it is not too late to reseed. It appears
the best course to spray with paris
green. using one pound to 175 gallons
Of water and adding one pound Of
quicklime. 4 q s55
Like several other insects, the blister
beetles were satisfied with the food
provided by nature until the advent of
the beet. True they did occasionally
levy tax on potatoes, but they dearly
love the wild vetches and almost any
plant of the pea or bean family. .55
With the advent of the sugar beet
the blister beetles were provided with
another source of food very much to
their taste and one which they seem to
prefer to most others. AS rule, the
blister beetles appear during the latter
half of July and become numerous dur
ing August and September, devouring
the leaves and doing great damage.
All this looks very bad, but when we
inquire into the early history Of the in
sect we find a very good record, which
helps us materially to forgive a part of
the later depreciation. The young blis-
ter beetle of the varieties noticed here
passes his larval stage in the egg pod
Of one Of the grasshoppers, devouring
usually from 80 to 40 eggs, after which
he burrows q short distance into the
ground. passes through the pupal stage
and comes out ready to collect pay of
the farmer.
All the common blister beetles Of this
region except the steel blue one have
this beneficial habit, so when we see
blister beetle eating our crops we may
be certain that he represents from 25 to
40 grasshoppers literally nipped in the
bud. This fact should have It's infin-
ence in considering the insect, and so
long as the number of the beetles is
small and the crop does not appear to
be suffering it is perhaps well to for
bear destroying them. There are three
varieties which have been reported as
injurious during the season of 1899,
Epicauta cinerea and it's variety con-

FAIR WAS PUNK
That is the Eopinion Of Visitors From
This City to the State Fair
Yesterday.
A Yellow Bail Game, and Horse Rae
ing Which Was Much Yellower
Still.
The Fair Got Bad startand
the Events Appear to be
Hoodooed.

q The Mandan fair yesterday is tersely +
described by those who attended from
this city as punk. x
The special train last night brought
back a numbered visitors who had had
enough. s559.
Bismarck and Washburn contributed
to the days horrors in a ball game in
which the score was several hundred
to "a few hundred less tallies. The
scorekeepers record showed 10 to IL. .g$
The base ball boys could not state how
the game resulted in the way of tallies.
The figures were SO large they could
not be kept in the head and nobody
had enough paper to write them down
The ball field was like a COW pasture
and as AN exhibition of the national
game it was ludicrous and horrible.
Two half demented individuals who
had been secured to act as clowns for
the day contributed to the general suf-
fering of the crowd of people in the
grand stand. At a late hour last night.
they had not been executed yet. s
Two or three spiritless horses were
trotted about the track several times,
in an imitation race. They called it
race because it was not SO.
The time was caught in basket
the most accurate reports we can get
place it at about 3:75.
Joshing aside it was a poor day.
Possibly it was the fault of nobody but
the weather man who held up the
events for two days. They would not
keep in the hot weather and there was
| no ice.
The fair got a bad start and it hasn't
caught up yet.
The officers in charge of the events
did the best they could but the spirit
of old time fairs did not seem to be
there. Over in Mandan yesterday it
| was stated that this fair would be the
last one. It ought to be the last one
of the kind.
The agricultural displays and the
other exhibits were good-but the
sports were melancholy
The Indians and wild west features
OF former fairs were not the same.
It is to be regretted that the standard
Of former years could not be main
tanned but possibly circumstances be-
yond the control OF the officials con-
spired against the success of the fair.
| Anyhow, let's say no more about it, in
| memory of former years when every
body got the worth of his money

committee met them with carriages
and escorted chem to the proposed site
for the sugar beet factory on the old
fair grounds. They also visited the
asylum, H Harrington's farm and else
where. The visitors examined the soil
and expressed satisfaction over the
outlook for securing the establishment
of a factory.
