to spend so extended a period in soil
tude in a subterranean cell, the whole
of the open-air career of the seven
teenyear cicada, as it is properly
called, comprising only few days.
Filling the ground from which they
issue with countless exit holes, swarm
ing over trees and shrubs, and making
the air vibrate with their shril1, dis
cordant notes, the 1ocusts leave OBJ
vious marks of their presence in the
small wounds, made for the purpose
of depositing eggs, which cover ali
the smaller twigs and branches.
Though no serious harm is done for
est trees, fruit trees and young nur-
Sery stock are liable to suffer consid-
erably.
The young ant-like larvae Matched
from the eggs escape from the wound
ed limbs, drops lightly to the ground.
and quickly burrow out of sight, each
one forming for itself little subter-
ranean chamber over some rootlet,
where it remains winter and summer,
buried and solitary, in this manner
passing the seventeen years of its I'M
foreground existence, while preparing
for a few weeks only of the society of
it's fellows and the enjoyment of the
summer.
With perfect regularity, at the end
of the allotted period, millions of the
insects attain maturity at almost the
same moment. For four or five weeks
the winged male sings his song of
love and courtship, and the female
bushes herself with the placing of the
eggs which are to produce a fresh gem
Grafton seventeen years later. For
nearly two centuries there is a record
of the recurrence of the cicada at sew
enteen-year intervals, the first writ
ten notes on the subject having been
made in 1715. The last appearance Of
the swarm was in 1885, so that the
next one is due in 1902. There are
other swarms of 1ocusts which turn
up every year at different places, but
the one expected next month is by far
the largest.

Perfect woman, nobly planned to
warn, to comfort and command" des-
cribed by Wordsworth as the ideal of
his age, meets with various definitions
at the dawn of the twentieth century
Kipling called her in THE Vampire -
"a rag and a bone and a hank Of
hair" but this has not been accepted
as the last word. Maeterlink is rath-
er nicer, when he speaks of her as
1.-THE only mystic" Meredith says
that by virtue of her abundant hair
she is more of vegetable than man.
Iso1el Osborne Stevenson, the step
daughter of Robert Louis Stevenson,
voiced one notion of womanhood at a
tea given in her honor by Professor
Eugene Lamb Richards of Yale. She
had spoken of Mrs Stevenson as
about the perfect woman. Some one
asked if she could write. NO" was
the reply. A fire of questions develop
ed the admissions that Mrs Stevenson
was not peculiarly gifted in any ar
tis+ direction, and that she had no
sat interest in charities or women's
clubs "Just what is your mothers
speciality" finally asked a young tu-
tors wife, .Oh," replied Mrs. Strong
.-she can roll cigarettes and talk to
men"

sfThe girl would rather have tramped
ten miles through rain and mud with
the man to whom she was engaged
than tool coach through half dozen
columns of society paper with young
Peyton; but,- she went with young
Peyton, she was a guest in his moth
er's house. There are reserves even
from the man a woman loves She
didn't tell him that she wanted to
leave it all and be dependent upon
him; she didn't tell him that bare
walls would not crush her spirit; she
didn't tell him that she was. young
and strong and brave and that she
wanted to live his struggling, climbing
life; she didn't tell him any of it
but she showed him the richness of
her love-beneath in her heart was the
solid ground of trust and faith; this
he knew"
Miss n-Caroline-'
"Mr. Brewster Barringer broke the
engagement himself. A word from the
girl, who was eager to explain, would
have Strengthened things; but she was
given no opportunity to explain-in
fact, she was not allowed to vindicate
herself. She suffered tender
things do sometimes suffer-but she
pulled through" Miss Nicholson's
voice was quite cheerful. Some of
her died, but the most of her lived"
She laughed a little, low, amused
laugh.

I had sick sister, dying of con-

How Japanese Measure Distanes.

The ri and the cho are the Japanese
measures of distance. The ri is equal
to about two and a half English miles,
and it takes thirtysix chos to make
one ri. Fifteen chos are little more
than one mile. One ri equals 1928
ki1ometers, and it is believed that dec
ima1 system will soon be adopted. On
country roads jinriksha fares are reg
ulated by distance, from to IA sen a
ri being charged, according to the
character of the road, but on all the,
usual routes, to and from country sta
lions, the exact tariff is known.

America and Europe For the last
thirty years he has been concerned in
the risings in Spain and Italy and was
active in the Barcelona bread riots,
the trouble in Milan, and the peasant
revolt in Sicily. He has been expelled
from every country in Europe except
England, and when he left New York

declare that he has been at the bottom
of every anarchist plot for thirty

Returns With Horse Thief.

Sheriff Jones returned last week
with George Babcock the man who
stole a horse from the grading
camp near kimama was captured
in east Helena, Mont, by officers
of that place who received the $50
reward offered by Sheriff Jones
for Babcocks arrest. His prelimin-
ary hearing was had before Justice
Smith Saturday, and he entered a
plea of guilty and his bond was
fixed at $500 in default OF which
will languish in the county jail
and await his trial in the district
court September u, 1902.
The present sheriff and force of
deputies have done very well in
point of drawing salaries and
creating bills OF expense, but as
officers have been a frost. During
the present administration they
have not as vet to their credit the
capture of criminal committing
a crime in this county and instead
send out kilograms and postal cards
and sit around home and wait for
results, and are sure they are safe
in the hands OF other officers before
they leave home. This has been
the case whenever a criminal has
made an attempt to escape, all OF
which are well known to the people |
