II W. PEST.

Nothing ~ Yet Discovered That
will Effectively Destroy Them.
The Elko Independent has received an
interesting communication from Prof. s.
B. Doten, who recently made q personal
examination Of the affected district, relative
to the cutworms that are doing so much
damage in Starr Valley. Elko county,
from which we take the following extracts:
The cutworms which nave done so
much damage in Eastern Nevada are not
entirely q new and unheard Of pest. In
previous years these insects have done con.
siderable damage in some parts of Oregon
and Washington and they have also been
reported from Colorado. In our State
they must have been present for several
years, but as they are not conspicuous in
sects aud have formerly dons little harm
they attracted scarcely any attention.
This is natural enough, for in the daytime
the worms lie hidden in the soil or in the
dead leaves and rubbish around the alfalfa
roots. coming out at night to feed on the
young and tender leaves. This habit of
hiding all day protects them against the
attacks of o host of natural enemies. such
as the small black wasp. which hunt them
out. and singing them into Iinsensibility,
lay them away in holes in the ground as
food for young wasps. The cutworms are
further protected by their resemblance TO
the ground upon which they rest. They
naturally do their worst injury early in the
year, when the alfalfa Is just starting. by
eating the buds and young leaves before
the plant has any time to make astart. 1t
is of course impossible to spray economi-
cally a crop of alfalfa with any Of the usual
insect poison; first, because of the great
cost involved. and then because these
sprays are as poisonous to cattle and horses
as they are to insects. The remedy then
must come either from nature or in some
way from methods Of cu~ltivating or irriga-
ting the fields. Nature so far has but little
to offer in the way Of an effective remedy.
The birds destroy very few worms in com
parison with the whole number; and / have
found as yet little to indicate the presence
of any important insect which prsys upon
the cutworm."

The members Of the Board give no hint
as to the possible results Of their mex,

tend to meet and elect the teachers sooner
than heretofore, 80 that present incum
bents in particular may know their posi-
ton in the matter, and have prompt
knowledge as to their applications. In
stead of getting off to California before
knowing of their retention or rejection

NO NEED OF ALARM.
Every Precaution Taken TO fre-
vent the Spread OF smallpox.

The SENTINEL has received a letter dated
June 6 from Mrs. Z. A. Page OF Tybo,
Nye county, mother Of the two boys who
are attending school at the California In
stitution for the education of the Deaf,
Dumb and Blind at Berkeley, CAL, where
some Of the inmates have recently been
afflicted with smallpox, among whom were
the two Page boys and George Halstead.
Mrs. Page says she has learned that there
was some uneasiness felt in Eureka by
parents about the return Of the three boys,
who usually pass through Eureka en- route
to their respective homes, lest they should
briug the disease here. She says this fear
is entirely unnecessary, as every precau'
ton has been taken for protection against
the germ. Mrs. Page adds that she has
ordered new suits for her boys, and re-
quested that not even as much as a lead
pencil be brought from the Institution.
She slso enclosed with her letter to the
SENTINEL a circular letter from the Prin'
cipal Of that Institution, which shows thai
every precaution has been taken there to
prevent the spread Of the contagion, as the
following paragraph will show:
Every precaution has been taken &c
prevent c~ontagion spreading beyond oui
own walls. In addition to our own safe
guards, it is suggested that svery pupil
shall leave the grounds in a complete new
outfit, from shoes to hat, leaving present
clothing to be thoroughly fumigated, ant
what is of little or no value to be burned
This is a measure for the safety of friends
at home which parents will appreciate"
The three boys mentioned above arrived
in Eureka by Thursdays train, all attiret
in brand-new suits of clothes, and show nc
bad effects of the disease with which they
have been recently afflicted.

Mr.. Hays believes that now that

no further need for the cultivation oil
the vast army Of politicians and
country newspaper owners, nor does
he find a sufficiently strong argu-
ment to support the further retention
on the pass list of a large number oil
merchants and personal friends oil
departmental chiefs, 30 he will use
the pencil on that part Of the free
transportation public also. On exam
lining the annual pass list last Janu-
cry he was astonished to find such q
large number of persons enjoying the
privilege of free transportation, 90 he
directed the issuing Of the passes to
June 80, and in the meanwhile has
been making diligent inquiry as to the
identity of these numerous travellers,
and has now gone to work in earnest
on the list, and it is said that by the

HIS MAN.
Colorado Horse Thief Overhauled

In white Pine County.
Jacob Thomas, alias Frank Jones,
charged with stealing four horses two
years ago ct Fort Collins. Colorado. was
discovered working on . ranch in Snake
Valley, White Pine county, and arrested
BY Sheriff Newman of that county. He
was brought to Eureka Wednesday and
identified by John II. Gsult. . deputy
sheriff OF Fort Collins, and taken in
charge by the latter. who left for that
place with his prisoner on Fridays train.
Thomas had been arrested and held
under g. 900 bonds 10 appear for trial in
the District Court at Fort Collins, john
Il. Gsult and Senator Evans becoming
bondsmen. About four days prior &c
the converting Of Court Thomas disap.
pesred. and has only now been finally
tracked to White Pine. A reward oil
500 was offered by the bondsmen for hi
capture. Mr.. Gsult was made . deputy
sheriff and came on here TO identify
Thomas, and on seeing the accused mar
iu Eureka Wednesday. at once paid oveI
to Sheriff Newman the $500.
Incidentally. il may be remarked thai
Sheriff Burdick Of Eareka keeps pretty
we'll posted ON the offer Of rewards. Il
seems that this same man, Thomas, hal
been interesting the sheriff st Ogden,
Utah. who recently wrote Sheriff Bur
dick that . reward of 5000 was offered
for him, and that if he, Burdick, would
capture him, the Ogden sheriff would
very generously divide the reward with
our Eureka sleuth. Sheriff Burdick re
piled that . reward Of $500 was offered
ct Fort Collins. and that il he, the Ogder
sheriff. would capture the wanted
man, be, Burdiok, would give him. sh'
Ogden man, half the reward. We hav'
sot heard whether the correspondence
progressed any further.
