PESTS OBJECT TO YELLOW.
mosquitoes VIII Avoid Person Who
Wears Clothing of That
Color, 1t Ii said.

Mosquitoes have their preiudices
and one of these is a repugnance to
yellow. For this reason residents in
mosq,Ilto-infested parts are strongly
recommended to wear rs much yellow
and to have as much yellow bout T. hem
as possible. This advice comes from n
French scientist who has been invcsti-
eating the psychology of the little
pest. One of the tests was S follows.
He took certain number of boxes
and lined their interiors with cloth of
different color, and different shades of
the same color. Then he liberated in
the room large number of mosuui-
toes, believing that the colors in the
box would attract them.
At the end of a certain time he closed
his boxes and then began to count. He
found that the insects had a decided
liking for dark colors in preference
to white and that the most were found
in the box which had been lined with
dark blue. Not single one was found
in the box which contained yellow.
This test may not be conclusive, but it
SENS to prove that there is something
in the tradition that dark stockings
attract more mosquitoes to the ankles
than do light ones.

WOMEN VOTERS,
Are More Conscientious ReGaPdina
Their Franchise Privileges
Than Men,

An Australian newspaper tells Of
some curious facts shown by the new.
electoral rolls of South Australia. The
number of men on the rolls has shrunk
in a little over three years from SO, $40
TO 76.167. On the other hand the wom-
en- voters have increased during the
same period from GS.375 to 1852. In
the three chief metropolitan districts
the men voters have dropped from &c.
5S7 to 30,4S4 a reduction of nearly is
per cent. Women voters in the same
district have slightly increased their
numbers. and now count no less than
3".s0l. The women seem to be grow
ing more conscientious in the fulfill
ment of their political duties and the
men more careless.
When equal suffrage was granted in
New Zealand the estimated number Of
adult women in the country was 130,-
9l5. OF these. 109.461 registered to
vote. OF the women who registered.
81 per cent. voted; of the IN en- who ree-
1stered. only G7 per cent. ~
According to the report of the
wyoming secretary of state, 90 per
cent. of the women vote. In Denver.
at the election last November, 31,7SO
men voted and 23,449 women.

1t is fallacy, widespread but
nevertheless fallacy. for anyone to
suppose that person who has once
mad smallpox, measles, scarlet fever
or other contagious disease is there
by male immune to that particular
disease for the rest of his life. A
SWISS physician has been examining
the records of such diseases, and in
the statistics at his disposal-which
are very defective, as comparatiyely
Few physicians take the trouble ia

double and seven triple attacks. A
hundred and three persons had two

measles; "o3 had typhus twice, flya
thrice, one four times, and even
cholera shows 20 second and three

is that during the prevalence Of an

has already had the disease.

Ferry In the Race to Win.

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. S.--The an
nouncement of d. NJ. Ferry's candi-
dacy for United States senator made
by William c. Mcmillan has created
some surprise. as he had been himself
considered a candidate to succeed his
late father, Senator James Mcmillan.
Mr.. Ferry now talks freely of his can
didacy and says confidently that he is
in the campaign to win.. BY entering
the field with the support of MIR. Nc
MILAN Mr.. Ferry is looked upon in
some quarters as being the candidate
of what is called the federal ma achine
in Michigan politics. General Alger
and his closest supporters however,
insist that they have nothing to say
about Mr.. Ferry's backing and declare
that they anticipate fair and square
campaign in which they are going to
do their best to defeat worthy opp0.
nent. Mr.. Mcmillan In giving his
friends reason for refusing to enter
the campaign himself was actuated, 1t
is said by his close friend, General Fl.
NJ. Duffield, by the idea that he did not
want to make campaign in which
he would be looked upon by many
voters merely as his fathers son.

ibid it ever occur to you," said =
college professor to Chicago gold
smith, that you have no such thing
as a pound weight?"
1t had: but the professor is willing
to bet that not one graduate Of .
high school out of twenty has an ides
that there is not a metal weight of IA
ounces to represent the Troy pound. n
But there is no such thing. Twelve
Troy ounces make a pound, but there
is no such material unit of measures
ment. There are the grain, the scru.
pie. the drachm. and the ounce weighta,
but nothing more. The man who has
1en pounds of gold in reality has only
12O ounces. and for him to- go into
the gold market and speak of gold ~
by the pound would be for him to be
laughed at.
incidentally these units of measures
ment in the Troy scale look a good
deal more like Greek or Chinese coins
than they look like weights, says tho
Chicago Tribune. For the average
high school graduate to pick up a set n
of these weights would be to bewilder
him.
IT is the contemplation Of such alb. Y
surdities of the English tables Of VI
weights and measurements that bring

LOVE CA USED
ARREST.

Philadelphia, Sept. s.-Had Hen.
ry Tyson Detweiler, the fugitive
cashier of the Union League, who
is alleged to have stolen about
81, 500 from the organization, re-
Trained from writing to his sweet
heart it is probable that he would
not now be under arrest here.
With Detweiler in their custody,
Detectives Whitcomb and Miller, of
the City Hall force, arrived in this
city yesterday morning from San
Francisco.
Detweiler was captured in San
Francisco about three weeks ago,
and his arrest was due to the fact
that he could not overcome his love
for his sweetheart and restrain him
self from writing to her, near the
home of his brother at Remove Pa.
The letter which tho detectives
intercepted, is said to have been
written in very affectionate terms
and in it Detweiler is said to have
begged his sweetheart not to desert
him and to have informed her that
he would clear himself Of the dis
grace which had fallen upon HIM.
When Detweiler was arrested he
acknowledged that he was the right
man. None of the stolen money
was found in his possession or at
his place of residence. He would
only say that the amount he was
charged with stealing was too large.
When arrested he was doing a
prosperous real estate business.
The alleged embezzler gave up
his position at the Union League
and disappeared from the city on
March II.
