This discovery was made by Profess

forced him for a time to study the
best method of driving off the clouds
of mosquitoes which made life q bur

sands of little insects hummed and
buzzed about me. Finally, In despera-
ton. tore some branches from a
plant with which to brush them away.
I soon found that I did not have to
brush. The mosquitoes had disappear
ed and did not come back that night.
''The plant from which 1 had torn the
branches was that of the castor bean.
The next evening I again tried 1t with
the same success.
Professor C. NJ. Childs, of the depart

Professor Starr. He says there is
something in the castor bean plant
which IS antipathetic to the mosquito.

TOUCHES SOME TELEpaonEs.
Rapid Transit Electricity Works Up
on the Talking Wires.

All along the line of the Rapid Transit
road, where the old system OF telephones
is still in use, there is trouble by rea-
son of the current which returns through
the earth. In one instance, when the
electric road had its current on in full.
a telephone wire fell across the trolley
wire of the railroad, and the result was
the burning out of the telephone. This
trouble &aill not be of long duration, as
the TELEPHONE company is placing its sys-
tenn on a metallic return basis. and this
will do away with a connection with the
ground, and SO prevent any trouble from
induction.

CHILE WILL BE THERE
PROMISES TO ATTEND
Second Pan-American Congress Held
In Mexico.


In Mexico.
BY Associated Press:
New York, May 17-The Chilean
government, says Washington spe-
cial to the Tribune, has waived it's OBJ
jectiOns to the second Pan-American
congress, to be held in the City of
Mexico next October, and will be rep
resented there. Announcement to
this effect has just been made by Off

publics, and it is expected that Senor
Vicuna, the Chilean minister in
Washington, will make formal ack-
nowledgment of his country's accep
tance of the invitation to take part in
the conference.
At the first Pan-American congress,
which was held in Washington in 1890
under the auspices of James G. Blaine
Chile was the only country interested
which did not accept an invitation to
be represented. Her objections then
were the same as when invitations to
the forthcoming congress were is
sued. Even up to a few weeks ago
Chile maintained stubborn attitude,
based on the apprehension that par
ticipation in the congress might give
an excuse to her old enemies in
South America, particularly Peru and
Bolivia, to lead in some movement to
recover through diplomatic channels
some of the territory Chile has gained
in wars with these countries.
For the last month or so Senor vi
cuna has been discussing the subject
in all it's details with state depart
ment officials in Washington. espec

who appears to have satisfied the
Chilean representative that Chile viii

CARNEGIE LIBRARY MAY
BE LOCATED AT HELENA
Col. Sanders Has Been Correspond
ina With the Millionaire.

It is not beyond the range of possi-
bility that Helena will benefit by the
benificence of Andrew Carnegie in
the way of a new public library. The
steel king will at least consider Hell
ena's claims in making his next ap-
portionment of donations, says the
Herald.
Colonel Wilbur F. Sanders has re-
ceived letter from Mr.. Carnegie's
secretary in New York stating that
the last communication of the Helena
public library board addressed to Mr..
Carnegie in response to a request
from him, had been received and
would be brought to his attention I'M
mediately upon his return to the
United States.
Mr.. Carnegie is at present spending
a few months on the other side OF the
Atlantic. He is expected home within
the next sixty days, and should any
thing occur to change his plans the
communication of the Helena library
board will be forwarded to him, along
with all other matters that have to
do with Mr.. Carnegie's public chari-
ties.
Last summer the library board had
some correspondence with Mr.. Car
negie regarding the library project,
but as his suit with H. G. Frick, occu-
pied his entire attention, soon after
correspondence was opened with him
the matter was for the time dropped.
Later in the fall at the suggestion OF
Mr.. Carnegie made some time before.
Colonel Sanders called on the steel
king in New York, but found him out
of the city. He had an interview with
Mr.. Carnegie's secretary, who looks
after the steel magnate's private bust
ness affairs. Colonel Sanders was
asked to bring the matter up again in
the spring. 1t is in response to let
ter written ten days ago that Colonel
Sanders has just received letter
from Mr.. Carnegie's representative
stating that the subject would be sOor
taken up with Mr.. Carnegie.-Herald
