The House Fly.

DR.. 1. o. Howard, the entomos
lpgist of the department Of agricdIs
lure, is the authority for the state
ment that the generation Of the
house fly is limited to ten days, and
when to this statement is added that
a female deposits about 12O eggs at
q time, simple calculation of the off
spring Of a single fly that has chosen
to remain with US during the winter
in order to get an early spring start
will result in figures that will startle
and terrify. The whole number of
children and children's children and
children's children's children, and
SO down the line Of figures during
the summer is beyond belief and,
when written, quite impossible Of
comprehension. As an Illustration
it may be assumed that a female fly
deposits l20 eggs, from which are
developed an equal number Of male
and female offspring. Taking this
as a base for calculation and assum-
ing that with each Matching of the
resultant flies there will be an equal
division Of sex, it will be found that
at the end Of the seventh generation,
or less than two and one-half months
from the laying Of the first egg, the
enterprising Mrs. Fly will have ac-
quired an Interestingly family number
ing 5,657, ,O03, ,559, 800 individuals,
the chief object of each Of which
seems to be to drown himself in the
coffee or trim his finger nails on the
point Of the human nose. And it
must not be forgotten that this cal
culation does not take into consider
alton the fact that there may in some
hatchings be preponderance of
females, in which case the total
would be startlingly augmented.
According to DR.. Howard the dis
ease that is most commonly trans
mitted by the house fly is typhoid
fever, and to avoid the i'll we must
get at the root of the evil and effect
a remedy. This is cleanliness about
the house and yard, particularly
about stables for it is in these latter
places that flies breed. It has been
found that when precautions were
taken with regard to the cleanliness
Of stables the number Of flies was SO
preceptibly diminished as to make
them scarcely noticeable, with cor
responding diminution is disease Of
all kinds. With the germ theory
fully developed and substantiated
by experiments during course Of
years it is now known that it is in
this manner alone that disease is
spread, and the fly is responsible for
all that the mosquito, flea and one
other little insect, unfortunately well
known in many Of the best families,
are not.
The first of all measures to be
taken, says DR.. Howard on the sub
ject, is to screen the house thorough
ly, killing all flies and mosquitoes
that may have gotin before this is
done. Il the house once gets filled
with flies it is a difficult problem to
eradicate them, but with these do
mesticated ones there is small dan.
ger though much annoyance. The
danger lies in the entrance of flies
from an infected locality, for when
they alight upon the food prepared
for the table the disease germs that
they brought with them from the
neighboring house of illness are de
posted on the food and the person
who partakes Of it is very likely te

The close relationship between
flies and disease and death is mat
ter that calls for the unremitting at
tention of all the people SO that
drastic measures may be taken to
check the cause. Although every
fly that enters the house does not
carry the germs of typhoid on his
feet he certainly does if he has late
ly visited a house where that illness
exists, and it requires only the pro-
per conditions for the inmates of the
next place of his visitation to con-
tract the illness. Washington Star.

LIKE
YANKEE WOMEN
4 BRITISH CRITIC ASSERTS THEY
ARE ANARCH1CAL AND ABB
NORMAL.

LONDON, November 2.-The latest
solution of the engrossing problem Of
the American woman Is that she Is an
anarchist, degenerate and OF "a dam
gerous abnormal type. u. b. Mar
riott Watson presents In the Nine
teenth Century published today. an
elaborate analysis of the character Of
the transatlantic femininity arriving
at the conclusion that Mr.. Gibsons
goddess is little better than a whited
sepulcher.
The character of the American wo-
man of today" he says. lis the product
partly of racial modification and partly
of the social conditions of "A commercial
age. We have many opportunities of
studying the American woman, for she
has undertaken to annex as much of
Europe as practicable and has sue
ceeded very fairly.
"A little time back some enthusiastic
journal i'm New York was at pains to
compile a list of American women who
had married, not Europeans merely,
but Europeans with titles. a large
majority of these ladies were confess
eddy wealthy and it would be absurd
20 ignore the obvious bargains upon
which many such matches are based; ;
on the one side money, on the. other
influence or position. 1t is considered
by the taste of the day quite creditable
if some pork packers dollars from
Chicago should buy a coronet in May
fair.
The American woman is claimed by
her admirers as being independent, but
she is more than that; she IS anarchi-
cal. The state has been built upon
certain sociological facts as foundation.
The American woman is destroying
these and with them, therefore, the
structure of the state as it exists now.
Evidences that American women are
deliberately turning their backs on
natural laws have accumulated of re-
cent years.
1T would seem that while the Amer
lean man unnaturally devotes all his
days to money-making, the American
woman as unnaturally devotes her days
to pleasure. Whereas the savage wo-
man acted as a beast of burden to her
lord, the American man works like a
beast of burden beside his triumphing
lady. Unless American civilization al
ters, it would seem to be doomed"

ALDEN BESSE GETS
FIRST NEW SUGAR
w. G. IRWIN & CO.'S VESSEL WILL
LIE UP UNTIL MIDDLE OF DE-
CEMBER FOR CARGO OF SUGAR.

The bark Alden Besse will probably
have the distinction of carrying away
the first full cargo Of the new sugar
crop The vessel is now discharging at
the Brewer wharf and will be dlscharg-
ed next week.
After being discharged the vessel will
haul over alongside the Hackfeld wharf
and lie there until the new sugar cargo
is ready for her. She is likely to be in
port for at least a month more. The
grinding of the new crop will not be-
gin until about the first of December.
Captain Keissel of the Alden Besse
has his wife with him this trip. On Oc-
tober % Captain Kerssel spoke the
German bark Atlanta bound from San
ia Rosalia to Eureka with nitrites. The
German vessel signalled that all was
well aboard and asked to be reported.
The Atlanta sailed September 26. She
was spoken in Lat. 81 north, Long.

OSCAR LEWIS
MAY RETURN
WELL KNOWN SHIPPING MASTER
REPORTED TO BE THINKING OF
RESUMING OPERATIONS HERE

The missing Heavenly Twin may re-
turn to Honolulu. According to a re-
port by the Alameda, Oscar G. Lewis
the former shipping master of this
port was thinking of returning to
Honolulu and engaging in his former
occupation in this city.
Frank Turk his old partner is now
in Honolulu in the shipping business.
Should Lewis return the famous COM
bination of Turk and Lewis would
probably be organized once more. Turk
has not however received any word on
the subject from his former associate
so the likelihood of Lewis coming to
Honolulu Is uncertain.
According to last reports Lewis was
highly prosperous in San Francisco.
He had purchased a lodging and board
ing establishment on Montgomery
street and was forced to hire an as7
sistant 10 help him count his money.
He also Was highly successful In Cali
fornia politics. He attended the Re-
publican state convention that nom
mated Pardee who was successfully
elected at the last campaign. Lewis
was also made a member of the State
Central Committee. 1t may be that
he considers his guiding genius is re-
quired yin Hawaiian affairs, so he
thinks of returning to this place.

NEW YORK, November 6.-Sam

and six months in Sing Sing Prison.
The sentence was passed on the charge
of extorting $500 from the Tiffany

1t was alleged that Parks as walking
