TOOK JAUNT THOUGH CANADA
Before the Marriage Ceremony II Was
Learned by the Girls Parents That
Tasting Was a Married Man and an
Impostor.

Port Huron, Mich, July 23.-Albert
Tasting and his 16-year-old bride
were brought back from Chatham,
Ont, by Deputy Sheriff Shannon, and
In police court Tasting pleaded guilty
to charge of perjury. The young
couple have had a romantic jaunt.
Several weeks ago the young man,
accompanied by Jesse Van Camp, faith.
er OF the proposed 16-year-old bride
applied for marriage license, which
was Issued. At that time he gave his
age as Il, and stated that he had not
been married before.
Before the marriage ceremony it
was learned by the parents of the
young girl that Tasting was an i'm.
poster and had wife living. The mar.
rage license was returned and de.
stroyed, although the AFFIDAVIT was
saved. Tasting was warned to keen
away from the house. One night the
young couple disappeared and they
were traced to Canada.
A search of the record showed that
a license had been issued to Hasting
in 1899 to marry young woman, and
at that time he gave has age as 81. The
case was placed in the hands of the
officers and they succeeded in locating
Tasting near Chatham. He volun
teered to return to TIE city, accom-.
panied by his bride. He has been
bound over and term of years stares
him in the face.

- In itself of much consequence. A
|oompetent statistician estimates IL ar
1h per cent. of the total amount in
circulation, or 37,5O0,OOO for gold and
silver combined. On this basis il NAV
be calculated that the annual loss
which actually takes place in gold
alone by wear and tear is about S2O.-
100000. Gold is lost in many other
ways, vast quantities are boarded (es-
pecially in foreign countries), and a
large proportion of this is subseuuent-
ly lost, as shown by the quantity of
treasure trove which comes To the
surface every year, though it probably
represents but n small part of that
which has been concealed. Every shin
which founders at sea takes a certain
amount of gold with it, which NAV
amount anywhere from a few dollars
to millions, if it happens to be laden
with the precious metal. The amount
OF gold required annually in the arts
is estimated at $50, O0O, 900, and, as this
calculation was made few years ago,
when the annual production was about
$12O,oOo,000, it follows that the amount
used in this way is about double that
which is used as currency.

THE HOTTEST EVER KNOWN
Absolutely No Rain Fell In the Corn
Belt According to the Official Re.
ports Received From Places in That
Locality.

Washington, July 23.-One hundred
degree temperatures were common
throughout the great corn belt yester-
day according to the reports to the
weather bureau here. In various
places in Illinois, Iowa and other
states all previous heat records were
smashed. There appears to be no pros
pect of decided relief from these ex-
hausting conditions for the next two
days at least except such as may come
from the always present possibility of
scattered thunder storms, which are
predicted for some portions of the SUI
perheated area. Dry thunder storms
accompanied by rain prevailed in sew.
eral sections OF the west-hundreds OF
miles apart. They temporarily cooled
the atmosphere but brought no relief
to the furnishing crops. Absolutely no
rain fell in the corn belt according to
the official reports received here. In
western Iowa it was a trifle cooler,
while in the central portion of the
state it was warmer. There is little
belt Of high pressure over the great
lakes and another over the south At
lantic coast, but it offers no prospects
of relief in the west so long as the con-
tinued low pressure remains in the
northwest. The warm weather again
was general throughout the entire
country except on the Pacific coast.
In the east the temperature, while
high, did not approach anywhere the
extremes prevailing in the west, and
recurrence of the hot wave OF two
weeks ago is believed to be unlikely
in the Atlantic coast region. Thunder
showers have continued from the
south Atlantic coast westward into
. Arizona and continuation of them is
predicted for the south and southwest.
In Des Moines the temperature Off
cially reported was 10S, in Springfield,

past records. In Indianapolis it also
was LOG, five degrees higher than ever

He then took out silver half-dollar
and walking some distance into the
woods raised up a large rock and
put the money under it. We then re-
sumed our journey, and, when proba-

called his dog and told him to go
back and get the money.
'The dog, without the least hesita-
ton, started back on a run, and my
friend explained as the rock was

it over, so would have to scratch I'M

before we reached there, it then being
about three miles further on to his
house.
However, when we reached home
the dog was not there.
1.-The next morning we got up about
daylight, and hearing noise outside,
my friend opened the door and the
dog rushed in dragging with him a
pair of pantaloons which he dropped
on the floor.
'Of course we were both mystified,
but had not long to wait an explana-
ton, for shortly afterward a man who
lived several miles from my friends
house rode up on a mule, and inquired
if a dog with pair of pantaloons in
his mouth had come into the house.
The dog at this moment came out on
the porch, and the man said: why,
there's the dog now

dog had really brought pair of panta-

noon the day before he found the dog
scratching under large rock near the
road and, thinking he was after a
rabbit, stopped and lifted the rock
up, and to his surprise found a hlf-
dollar on the under side.
"He put the money in his pocket,
and the dog followed him home. The
dog appeared to be friendly and the
man petted him and gave him his sup
per. At night when the family re-
tired the dog was put on the outside,
but he kept up such racket that no
one could sleep on the place, and when
the man opened the door to drive the
dog off he rushed into his bedroom
and at once became very quiet, lying
down near the foot of the bed, where
he slept all night.

he got up and opened the window, and
the instant he did so the dog seized
his pantaloons' in his mouth and, jump

"The man followed as soon as he
could get his mule.
Hearing this story my friend got
the pantaloons, and on searching the
pockets found the half-dollar which
he had hid under the rock the after
noon BEFORE" -..-

Texas to st. Louis to he Exam
ined by Experts.

Specimens of an entirely new kind
of an insect which has wrought great
havoc in the growing wheat fields OF
Texas were received by =. II. Litch-
field, of the Modern Miller, and placed
on exhibition at the Merchants exs
change at st. Louis.
Reports from Texas say that at least
25 per cent. of the wheat crop in the
northern part of the state has been
ruined by the bug" and the entire crop
is threatened.
The insect is little smaller than
the Hessian fly, and in appearance tits
something between that insect and the
"wheat locust"
The body is an olive green and the
wings transparent at first. Under q
microscope the insect looks very much
like the Cicada or August fly, which II
so musical in the fall. When the insect
grows older, however, it becomes black
and grows larger. 1t has long legs and
a rather slender body.
Both the grubs and the insects are
seen in countless numbers in the grow
ing wheat. Advces from all parts OF
Texas say that the pest is spreading.
But it appears to be working only ON
the stubble-ground wheat. The insects
were in the wheat last summer when
it was cut, and remained in the grsund
all winter.
Owing to the mildness of the winter.
instead of being killed it propagated
rapidly, and apprehensions are felt for
the entire crop. So far wheat on the
cotton ground does not appear to be
damaged.
The bug attacks the plant, but not
the grain itself, and causes it to wither
and die. Samples of the insect, infect
ed plants and soil in which they grew
have been sent to the agricultural de-
partment and to entomologists in ST.
Louis and elsewhere for examination.
At first it was supposed to be Hes
sian fly, but on closer inspection 81
proved to be an entirely different va

ing reports of the condition of the
wheat crop in the north Texas wheat
belt. President j. N. Rayzor said that
what was thought to be the Hessian
fly could be found by the millions i'm
the north Texas wheat belt, and he
said that from the information he had
that if the ravages were continued for
the next ten or fifteen days the crop
would be failure.
Some farmers, he said, had already
plowed up land planted in wheat and
were putting in corn and cotton. Pres-
ident Rayzor said his information was
that the insect in its embryo state was
