ten days as was drawn in the order, and
so the proceedings so far taken will be

as to gaming was that he had thrown

Chickens Exterminate the Pests.

This story comes from Oberlin:
Grasshoppers are appearing in con-
siderable numbers. Many farmers
claim that no damage will be done
and others say they will materially
injure corn. If the plan adopted by
some farmers was followed it would
not take long to exterminate the
pests. They raise large numbers of
chickens and turkeys and turn them
into the alfalfa fields to feed on the
insects. 1t is surprising the guam
tity of hoppers a good healthy tur-
key will stow away in a day.

RESTORED TO ARMY.
Justice Is Not Only Blind, But
Often Very Slow.

Been Dropped from the Service
Rarely Ever Secure Rein
statement.
Especial Washington letter.

ENAlOh I1OAu 10 hol ohiy :"
statesman, but loveable
man of the plain people"
said former army officer to-day.
The senator is now almost rs years
of age, and of course is not as
strong physically as he once was, al
though mentally is he a tower OF
strength.
81 called on him at the senate one
morning recently. to tell him that
my bill for restoration in the army
was hung up in the house of repre-
sentatives. He told me that after
lunch he would personally look into
the case. Although he had many
matters of greater Importance on his
mind, when the time came the old
gentleman took me by the arm and
walked that long distance from the
senate to the house. That body was
in session, and l remained out in the
corridor while he went inside. He
saw members of the committee on
military affairs, and then left the
case in charge of representative
from Massachusetts, who is to look
after it."
Lieut.. Francis S. Davidson, who thus
tells of the kindness of the venerable
statesman from Massachusetts, was
a cadet at West Point from July 1,
1862, to January 81, 1865, when he was
commissioned a second lieutenant in
the Fifth Massachusetts cavalry, and
served with that regiment until Oc-
tober 81, 1865, when he was honora-
bly, mustered out with the regiment.
On March Z, 1867, he was commissioned
second lieutenant of the Ninth United
States cavalry and promoted to first
lieutenant, July 81, 1867. He served
with his regiment on the Texas from
tier against hostile Indians until July,
1875, when he was ordered with his
company on a scout and to make a
temporary camp at water hole called
Gel Louz ranch"
Lieut.. Davidson is not the first good
soldier who has suffered from envies
and jealousies; and it was in 1875 that
his prosecutions began. The writer
had personally known him for almost
80 years, and hence is familiar with
his story. When he left Fort Brown,
Tex, to go on that scout. the officer
who inspected his company preferred
charges against him as to the condi-
ton of his company and wagons. OF
these charges he was acquitted. But
that did not end the matter. 1t is
we'll known to those familiar with
the old army that when conspirators
begin to seek court-martials they
usually succeed in some manner.
Charges were later preferred against
Davidson for "breach of arrest and
gaming in the presence OF enlisted
men," He had not been placed in
close arrest during the trial before the
court which acquitted him, but was
simply ordered to remain with his
company under arrest. He did not
leave the ranch of Ell Louz, nor did
