Sam Strong are trying to arrange II
compromise with the counsel for Mel

No widespread Revol. Expected.

Chicago. Sept. 29.-General Elwell S.
Otis. in command of the Department
of the Lakes, said tonight that the
slaughter of members of Company G
of the Ninth infantry at Saniar did not
mean that there is anything like wide
spread revolt in that province Con-
cerning the disaster, General Otis
said:
'Samar is in the department of Viz
ava, over which Brigadier General
Hughes has command. This depart
ment includes all the central islands
of the Philippine archipelago. During
the last month our soldiers have been
active in an attempt to subdue rebel
lion. which is confined to the boun-
daries of that island. The insurgent
leader. Lucban, heads the natives, and
he ana TagalO followers have been in
strumental in keeping alive the spirit
of opposition to this governments au-
thority.

story comes from Westlawn cemetery

The miners of the town of Pas De
Calais have elected Mile. Lea Bourbon
as their queen of the coal carnival
This young woman is in the coal trade
in the capacity of a sitter, and al
though her work is so grimy she has
a beautiful complexion. which. no
doubt, added to her good character,
gave her the necessary number of
votes, although the competition was
keen. her fellow-candidates being
drawn from the cleaner walks of life.
The car which carried the queen and
her maids of honor was decorated with
flowers, picks, lanterns. etc Mile.
Bourbon is only II, and the coronation
in the center of the town made a very
beautiful tableau. To be coal queen en-
titles her to small annuity from the
treasury of the town, and with her
French thrift she will save this for her
dot.

DR.. L. o. Howard, entomologist of
the department of agriculture. has
just made public some startling state
ments of the property losses caused by
insects. He believes they aggregate
over s3O00OOOOO a year. The Rocky
Mountain locust or western grasshop-
per in 1874, ate up slO00OO,oOO worth
of growing crops. The chinch- bug
alone has eaten $500 900 900 worth of
corn and wheat in the western states
since 1850. As for the mosquito, apart
from the losses believed to be due to
its pernicious activity in the spread of
yellow fever and malaria. it is an i'm
mense depreciator of real estate val
ues. New Jersey newspaper re-
Gently estimated that its extermina-
tion in that one state alone would add
to its real estate valuation not less
than $l00,0OO,0O0.

AS the steamer Sheffield was leaving
the river Scheldt one evening recently
the captain and passengers observed
the unusual phenomenon lin these lati-
tudes) of large waterspout. The
steamer was a few miles off West
Capple, and from a heavy thunder
cloud lying due west of this point, and
computed to be about ten miles dis
tant, dense black column was
formed, which appeared to fall by
sinuous course into the sea At this
distance the surface of the sea-where
the waterspout touched its surface
was at once surrounded by smoke
like obscurity. Hundreds of tons of
water must have dropped heavily into
the sea. The black line of communi-
cation between the cloud and the sea
fell precipitately at first, then for
some distance appeared to encounter
a fresh current of air and was borne
along laterally. after which it dropped
into the sea. The phenomenon contin-
ued dashing up the surface of the sea
for about four minutes.
Arrangements have been concluded
