Vast Swarms of Insects
Blown Into Akron.
Downtown Streets We're Thick With
Them and Walks We're Covered.

Vast swarms of insects, commonly
called winged ants, literally covered
down town walks in the vicinity Of
electric lights, Monday night, and SO
filled the air as they flew about in the
well-lighted spots that to pass through
among them was an undertaking
which few cared to attempt second
time.
The insects were trif1e larger than
small red ants and had wings proper
tionately much larger than those of
flies. They seemed unable to continue
great while in the air and as they
swarmed about the lights, millions fell
to the pavement. Their white wings
being the most conspicuous point about
them, gave to the sidewalks in spots.

covered with sooty snow.

THE KIDS
And How They Beat
the N. O. T. Co.
Free Passengers Carried From
Lakeside Every Night.

"1ts a mystery they don't kill a
dozen or more of those kids every
night on the Akron street cars" said
man on one OF the Lakeside cars
Monday night, as the car brought its
load Of passengers from the Casino to
the city. The kids in question were
hanging on the back platform of the
car, riding on the coupler and hanging
on every inch of available space that
was out of the line of vision Of the
conductor. A crowd of the youngsters
is carried from the Casino nearly all
the way to town every night at the
company's expense and at imminent
danger to the life and limb of the
aforesaid kids. The rush of traffic
which the cars handle after the Casino
lets out is the youngsters excuse.
-Four O. five of them will crouch on
the back end of one of the cars, out
of sight of the conductor and they will
often ride all the way down town
without being discovered. Should one
of the heavy cars break down on the
heavy hill leading from Lakeside the
kids would meet a certain and horrible
death. They don't seem to- mind OF
realize the danger, however and hang
drives them off.

to the pavement they were piled in
places, an inch deep.
Pedestrians found their clothing lib
orally bestrewn with the pests even
though they left the sidewalks to es-
cape them when passing low-hung
lights. The ants did not sting, but
seemed quite lifeless except as they
dashed themselves frantically against
the electric globes. Yet they clung
with some tenacity to any object on
which they alighted and removing
them from clothing was not unlike
picking off Spanish needles.
From where the insects came is q
disputed question. How long they will
remain is of even more interest to those
who spend evenings down town. There
is theory that the ants, having reach

AS his bicycle struck the buggy
amidships, Sprague was thrown over
the front wheel and half into the con.
veyance. Mr.. Taggart's horse was
frightened and started to run. Sprague
was dragged from the buggy, by the
handle bar of his wheel and the bicycle
itself was run over.
Mr.. Taggart soon stopped his horse
and returned to the scene of the acci-
dent. Sprague was carried into VIM

garding the entry of other firms into
this business. Meanwhile foreign COM
petition is increasing, the British agent
of the New York Betting and Packing
Co., limited, having recently, l under
stand, done considerable business with
the motor firms at Coventry. This tire
is practically a tubeless one, as the
inner tube and outer cover are vul-
canized together. The increasing
weight of the vehicles and the high
speed at which racing contests are run
are factors of primary Importance with
regard to the life of the rubber tire,
though the suggestion to use cover

idea-is hardly likely to prove of value.
What with the danger from speed and
the annoyance by the raising of clouds
of dust, the autOmobilist is not looked
upon with too friendly an eye by the
