THE DEFEAT OF RECIPROCITY.

advocates. and not by the number or per

The Washington correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Ledger Describes how it
was done. Some of til" Republican lead

while to be supporting the Admui>tra-

make it appear that if the bill should il"

laying this charge the "Puhic Ledger"
asserts. upon what it claims 10 hr good
authority. that if the majority III tn"
committee had brought ont the I'LL there
never was II time when it could not have"
been passed. the actual beet sugar con-
tin@rnt numbering not more than half Il
dozen Senators.
If this charge h" true. It passes the
understanding of the average layman.
how grave and dgmiti"d Senators could
practic" such duplicty in ATTEMPTING to

small contingent of lis own body. when
such was not the fact.

In that accident his knee was badly bruised and an abcess soon formed which gave him some trouble, not enough at first to interfere with his plans. The hardships of his present trip, however, aggravated the trouble. The president was driven from the clubhouse to St, Vincent hospital, where he was taken to private op- erating room. It was about 4.15 when the doctors began the operation. It was performed by John Oliver, as- sisted by Dr. Henry Jameson and pr. Cook.
 The operation was finished and the president was removed to his room. He did not take an anaesthetic. The president is cheerful

than he should have done. but on his showing of good character sentence was suspended.
 JUSTICE GRAY'S COURT.-In Jus tice Gray's court yesterday Joseph T. De Baud was tried for whipping a col ored boy by the name of Williams, the latter being much smaller than he is. He was found guilty and sentenced to serve nine days in jail. After the sen tence was pronounced the boy became penitent and began to appreciate his duty toward others. He told the court his mother was sick in bed and had no one but him to care for her. The judge. Knowing the statement to be true, lee tured him both as to his recent conduct and regarding his duty to his mother. and then suspended sentence during good behavior. Charles Mcfarland Jr.. who was tried the day before for cut ting the scenery at the park theater, was fined S16, and made arrangements to pay the amount He denied his guilt to the last but there was too much testimony against him.
 A DEADLY WEAPON.-R F. Doll has for a long time been engaged in the collection of curious and ancient weapons. He has lately received one differen. from any that any one who has yet seen it had ever seen. It is d French arm and was found on one of the battle fields of the French and MeXicans. It is combination shotgun and revolver. and when it was new it must have been d handsome weapon. The revolver part of it consists of nine chambers of about fl caliber. They were loaded with powder and ball. There projects from the center of the chamber tube of about 16 gauge The barrel is detachable. It screws over and around the tube so that when the weapon is ready for use the tube lies under the barrel and is slightly shorter The nipple through which the tube is discharged is concealed by the ham mer, but when the tube is to be fired the hammer is raised and little lever at the point of it is thrown down at such an angle that it will strike the nipple of the tube. A man armed with that weapon would have ten shots. and one of them if the tube were loaded with buckshot would be extremely com prehensive and deadly. It is a wonder that the French ever lost that war, armed with such weapons.

HORNED CORYDALLIS
A Very Useful Combination of Bat
 Bug and Lobster.

Some time ago The Republican an nounced the capture by an employe of this office of an insect bigger than some birds, that was believed to be an alfalfa-fed mosquito on the warpath There was some little romance in the story, for it was known of course that it was not mosquito. though it was about the biggest thing in the bug line that ever came over the pike. The worst part of the story was that a great injustice was done the bug in calling it a mosquito, and this oppor- tunity is taken to apologize to the in sect. The Republican. however. posi- lively refuses to apologize to the mos quito. Thanks are due to the St. Louis POst-DiSpatch for the information con- tained in the present remarks. for through the chronological bureau of that newspaper it has been learned that the bug in question is no plebeian in sect but an aristocratic Horned Cory dallis, in habit and general appearance being a combination of bat bug and lobster. Further. instead of being an oVergrown mosquito, it's special mission on earth is the destruction of that inn polite and aggravating insect.
 A citizen of St. Louis stumbled over a sample copy of this animal which was out till after daylight one morn ing got blinded and bumped against the pedestrian in the street. It was taken to the Dispatch office. photo graphed and two columns of space de- voted to a recapitulation of it's virtues and it's habits. It is nocturnal in it's nature and its habitat is in the tops of trees or under cliffs and banks near streams. hence seldom seen except when attracted by the electric street lights at night.
 It's principal claim upon the affec- tions of mankind is that family feud exists between the Horned Corydalls and the whole mosquito family, and that 1t will eat nothing else when mos- quitoes are in the market. The Post Dispatch suggests the propriety of the St. Louis health department stabish- ing Horned Corydallis hatchery or the bank of the River des Pere and | that the mosquito fighter be given the freedom of the town. It's daily diet is said to be d hundred or more mosqui- toes. That the Phoenix creature witt the bat wings. lobster pinchers, horns 1 etc, is identical with the St. Louis bug was learned through the printing of tht | iatters picture in the Post-Dispatch i Horned Corydallis, a frghtful name
