How Mosquitoes Pass the Winter.

That adult mosquitoes live through
the winter is quite evident to all who
have seen and felt them on the first
warm days of early spring. Now we
are told in addition that the larvae and
even the egg of the insect may survive
great cold. Says writer in the Revue
Scientifique:
1T is we'll known that mosquitoes
hibernate in the adult state: a certain
number of these unpleasing insects pass
the winter in various retreats-in
slaughter-houses, granaries, cellars,
etc. and in the spring they resume
active life and multiply their kind.
Information. however, does not al
ways take place in the adult form only:
the larva can also pass the winter with
safety. This has been shown by the
observations of Mr.. John b. Smith
made during the winter of 1901 1902 and
at the end of 1902. The winter cold
does not regularly destroy Aquatic
larvae. They will bear a considerable
degree of it; they have been seen sur

frozen around them, and after the
melting of the solid envelope they still

SAY YES TO HAvEMEYER
Labor Unions Accept His Challenge for
Public Meeting.

New York, May 15.-The challenge made
last week, by John G. Havemeyer to the
labor unions of Yonkers, in which he Of
fered to PROFOUND various questions for
labor union speakers to answer at pub
lie meeting, the expense to be borne, by
him. was officially accepted, yesterday,
at a meeting of the YonkerS branch of the
Federated Union. The conditions that the
unions furnish their speakers without cost
and that speakers coniine themselves to
answers to his questions met no opposi-
ton. The vote to accept was unanimous.
There were delegates present from twelve
of the locals.
1t was at first deemed expedent to con-
fine the speakers to YonkerS men, but the
point was raised that Mr.. Havemeyer
probably would have the support of many
wealthy men, and for that reason the
ablest speakers of the pnions should be OBJ
tanned to answer him, j. 7. Windel, the
president of the federation, was appointed
to communicate with Mr.. Havemeyer ac-
cepting the challenge. and suggesting that
judges, to pass on the merits of the con-
troVersy, two to be selected by the fedora
ton. two by Mr.. Hayemeyer, and the fifth
to be agreed on Mr.. Windel, who is a
member of the Typogra phical Union; G..
F. Clarity, of the Union of Stationary En-
gineers, and f. S. Skinner. of the Ma
chinists' Union, were appointed to arrange
Great interest has been felt in Mr.. Have
meyers challenge, and the outcome, it is
predicted already, will go long way to-
ward settling the building trades strike
In West Chester.
Mr.. Havemeyer has occupied church
pulpits for the discussion of public ques-
tons from religious point of view. He
pleaded strongly for a blue law Sunday
several years ago, when agitation against
Sunday golf and baseball was rife. He
maintained from the pulpit of the Central
Methodist Episcopal Church that the run
nlng of trolley cars was wrong About
two years ago he challenged the Prohibi-
ton party to furnish speakers to answer
some of his questions. and Yonkers
theatre was engaged for the purpose a
copy of his present challenge has been
sent to Samuel Gompers. and some Of the
speakers may be furnished by him

The Legislative Results.

The session of the Legislature just
closed WAS fertile in absurdity and seam
dal. All the bills advocated in the pop
ular interest were beaten. The Passaic
Pollution measure was aborted by a
shabby trick. Tie primary law, as shown
in Mr.. MeDermott's able papers is a
preposterous tangle of impossiBilities.
The Excise Law is vicious. if not uncon-
