Terrible Slaughter.

At an early day the people of
this city planted large quaint
ties of boxelder trees along the
streets of this city, but today
many are busy cutting them
down, the cause being the fact
of their producing, for some
years, a destructive worm or
moth, which eats every leaf off
of such trees, and to get clear
of this moth the people are cut
ting down the trees that grow
them.

JOHN FLETCHER HURST DEAD.
bishop of the Methodist EpiscouoI
Church Passes Away at His
Home in WnSbiugton.

Washington, May 4.-Bishop John
Fletcher Hurst, of the Methodist
Episcopal church, died here at 1910
Sunday morning. With the bishon
when he died were his daughter Ellen
and son, Lieut.. Paul Hurst, of the
Third United States infantry, who ar
rived only few hours before his fa-
TIERS death, Another son. John L.
Hurst, is on his way here from Den
yer, having been summoned when il
was seen the end was near. One 9th
er son, Carl Bailey Hurst, is at Vienna,
where he is United States consul gen
cral.
Bishop Hurst had been in failing
health for nearly two years, and for
more than a year it had been recog-
nized that a fatal termination of his
malady was but Il question of months.
He was stricken with paralysis in Lon
don last September year ago, when
attending the ecumenical conference.
The news of President McKinley's as
sassination prostrated him and the
shock brought on rapidly the decline
that fatally ended in his decease.
Bishop Hurst remarked few wears
ago after the death of his former
wife, but the later marriage was not
a happy one, and they separated
about three or four years ago.
