The body Of L. f. Lyons was found
in the river four miles below Post Falls.
Mr.. Lyons was spending the summer

Father of All Black Beetles.

The ancient order of life is always
an interesting study. 1t is astonishing
to find not Only crickets and beetles
existing at periods enormously earlier
than the appearance of birds or fishes,
but that they are conformed in type to
the families in which they are classed
today.
Though they become fewer and fewer
as they are tracked back up the river
of time, there are not found in the
earliest fossil bearing rocks any con-
Meeting links or earlier and simpler
forms of insect life or n clew to the
common ancestor of insects, spiders
and shrimps which naturalists would
dearly like to discover. There is baf-
fling completeness about these crea-
lures. The first insect known to have
existed, a creature of such vast antiq-
uitv that il deserves all the respect
which the parvenu man can summon
and offer to it, was a-cockroach. This,
the father of all black beetles. prob
ably walked the earth in solitary mag
nificence when not only kitchens but
even kitchen maidens were undreamed
of. possibly millions of years before
neolithic man had even a back cave
to offer with the remains of last nights
supper for the cockroach of the period
to enjoy.
