$4,000 in personal property to Harlan

the case. the SchToths refused To say

IN THE GOOD OLD
TIMES.

Many of the games which diverted
out forefathers have fallen not only
into desuetude, but into state Of
oblivion. People have vague ideas
about bull biting and cock fighting,
but they know little Of many other
sports which entertained their an
cestols, and which by reason Of their
inhumanity are not now cOunte-
nancel by sportsmen, say the
London Globe. A writer in Baily's
Magazine reviyes tho memory OF
some of these games. He quotes an
advertisement which appeared in
1852 announcing that Eat the King s
bear garden at o'clock in the after
noon, will be horse baited to death
of a most vast strength and bigness,
being between 10 and 10 hands
high Then we are told of ''goose
riding" a sport in which live
goose was tied by the feet to high
rope stretched across the course,
where men rode at a gallop, striv-
ing to pull off the head of the goose
as they raced underneath. Pig

PLAGUE OF 'HOPPERS.

st. Paul, June 26-Reports from
the northern part of the state says
that the grosshopper are appearing,
and the late crops are expected to
afford the past serious Roadway.
Professor F. l.. Washbourn, the
state entomologist, has left for the
threatened section to make investi-
cations, with view to perfecting a
plan for the control of these insects.
The insects, which is commonly
called the grasshopper, Professor
Washburn says, is in reality locust
and is at the present time the worst
enemy with which the Minnesota
farmer has to contend. Once the
nest gets a start an entire wheat
field may be devasted in an after
noon, as the locusts travel in meal
culable numbers. 1t is almost i'm
possible to head them off, and it is
only by precautionary meausres that
they can be controlled.
Professor Washburn predicts that
chinch bugs will be numerous this
year. their appearance having al
ready been noted in many parts Of
the state.
He has plan which he proposes
to put in operation next year for
the control of this insect. His idea
is to plant a strip Of millet around
the field and as the bug is very
found of this it will naturally stay
in it until vegetation is destroyed.
In this way the insect may be de-
stroyed, as they are very easy to
capture, and collected in large
quantities they are burned.
Recent reports from Indiana and
the adjoining states tell Of the havoc
which the cicada, OF seventeen-year
locust, as it is better known, is play
inc in those districts. Large orchards
are being moved down by. the
ravages of the pest, and many of the
large fruit growers are abandoning
their ranches.
A few of the insects appear re-
gularly every year, but it is only
once in seventeen years that the
large swarms make their presence,
and as this is the year scheduled
for their arrival, they may be ex-
pected in large numbers.
Minnesota, however, is usually
out of their path, of devastation,
and it is only an occasional swarm
that finds its way as far north as
this.

SNEEZING DOWIElTES MUST
LET WHISPERS GROW.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 5.-"Grow
whiskers," is the edict that went
forth Yesterday from Dowie to his
faithful. The lake Winds taking
up the cry-for business reasons,
possibly-have carried the word
through Zion Cities until the north
shore colony probably is the only
municipality in the world where a
full beard is requisite Of good
citizenship.
It isn't that the BARRIERS of Zion
City have offended their all-power-
full overseer, and neither is it a
matter of sentiment with Dowie.
The Moslems swear by the boards
of their prophets, but even the fact
that Dowie himself is a bearded
prophet does not explain his edlot:
Grow whiskers.
The prosey truth is that Zion City
has been sneezing. The chill lake
breezes have carried inflammation
to the bronchia Of the faithful until
there ism t a larynx in the colony
that is behaving as a good lalynx
should Faith is the ruling emotion
in Zion, so Dowie has pinned his
faith to whiskers as substitute Tor
worldly drugs.
The Zion City board Of health was
called into conference. A few
words with the overseer was enough
said, and the board, clothed with
official powers, soon issued pro-
clamation that ''for the good health
and physical well being OF the
citizens of Zion City it is determined
that all male residents of a suitable
age shall allow their boards to
grow
Nothing is said in the procla-
nation Of lions feminine residents,
although one member of the health
board was disposed to insert a
paragraph allowing them 'discre'
tionary privileges. "

rOLYGAMY DYING AMONG
TURKS.

"Polygamy is fast dying out
among the Turks, and not on &C
count of any chance in moral stand
ards, but because of the attitude of
the women themselves. Formerly
a man 8 four or five wives dwelt
alnicably under one roof, but now
every wife demands a home of her
own, and the impossibility of sup
porting of many homes is compell'
ing the average Turk to limit his
harem to one wife.
This new proof of the civilizing
influence Of woman was given
yesterday by Miss Florence A.
Fensham dean of the American
College for Girls, at Constantinople,
in talk before the League for Polit-
ical Education, in New York, on
s'The Outlook for the Woman of the
Orient -
Another statement that seemed
novel to many in the audience was:
ssThe Turks as a face are of fair
complexion, with blue eyes, and are
delightful people to know. They
are truthful, honest, and hospita BILE

+bo ,,,ass If the Turks-thOse of the
uDper middle class-differs greatly
from the government; but nation
must be judged, not by it's highest
nor its lowest, but by the great
class between.
soThere is general impression
abroad that Turkish women are shut
up behind the LATHE windows of the
harem. and have little freedom to
90 about. This is far from correct.
The Bosporus teamers are crowded
with them; they justle you on every
and in the narrow streets Of Con-
stantinople. Yelled they must be,
but yelled they go about with free

work recently published by one
long resident of the country. The
women hold ultimate sway over
