as they are in destitute circum-
stances, aud while some OF them
are looking for work. the others
bave been obliged. to beg for food.
Il seems they came down from La
redo expecting to 90 over to Mata-
moros to seek employment, but on
being to'6 tnR their quest would
be useless over there at present.
they concluded not to 90. They
say that, il they can secure SUM-
cient supplies, they will 90 into
the interior and try their luck.
The matter has been called to the
attention Of Mayor Carson, bat il
is probable that the only way to
help these poor people 10 by indi-

THE INCH WORM.
A Danger Threatening the EIms and
Apple Trees.

Much alarm is manifested by some OF
our residents over the depredationS OF
the inch worm which is appearing
among the elms and the apple trees OF
the city. IN some sections of the city
it has made some of the apple trees in
the gardens and the elms on the lawns
look as though they had been scorched
by fire. The leaves seem to be brown
ed and curled up. The reports come
from outside the city that this little
worm, which is called the inch worm
is raising havoc with the trees II
may become a serious and general pest
as was the caterpillar scourge of q
few summers ago, and wherever the
worms appear they should be promptly
and vigorously fought. 1t is said thai
tarred paper about the trunk vii
prevent the worms from getting into
the tree. Thus far only the elmS anC
apple trees seem to be troubled by
them If any reader of the Journa
knows any good method of fighting
them and saving the trees which arr
threatened we should be glad to make
it known to the public.

the change is that sometimes during
the summer the basement is uncom-

marriages in cases where the teaching
