IT WAS A CATERPILLAR.
Bug Believed by Finder to Be of
Hitherto Unknown Species.

F. w. Johnson. Washington agent for the
American Publishing House of Chicago,
found a caterpillar in Franklin Square this
morning which he firmly believed repre-
scented a new biological species. He brought
the bug as he called it, to The Star office
this morning and was persuaded that the
species not only existed. but that he might
see a picture of his insect at the Agricul-
tural Department.
The entomologists Of the latter bureau
saw the bug and classified it readily as
of the species 'papHio turnus linneus.
They told Mr.. Johnson. moreover, that it
would develop into large, yellow. swal-
lOw-tailed butterfly. Mr.. Johnson was
greatly surprised to learn that the govern
nent had a picture of his own particular
bug" and not only knew all about 1t in its
present form, but could forecast the kind Of
butterfly into which it would develop.
The species is of extraordinary interest.
This specimen was about two inches long
pearl gray in color, and had very large
head Near its mouth We're two short, coral
red tentdcIes. which Were erected whenever
the caterpillar was molested. In addition
to these points of interest, the creature ex
hailed a most delicate and delightful per-
fUme.
