AN UNWELCOME VISITOR.
An introduced WeeviI From England
Threatening Valuable Trees.
From FRIDAYS Daily.

from rTluayS DAILY.
The state entomologist has found the
European alder and willow borer working
on the Carolina poplar, a tree which has
promised to be most popular among
farmers and others.
This weevil is snsut beetle; its
scientific name is Cryptorhyncus lapathi,
Linn, and came to this country some
time previous to 1895. Up to 1895 it
was not known outside of New York
state. In 1896 it was found in Mas
sachusetts, and few years later caused
immense damage there to the balm of
gilead poplar. To such an extent did
this beetle work on these trees that the
business of the nurserymen in this di-
rection was seriously threatened. 1t
has just been brought into this part of
the west, not having been here before,
to the best of the knowledge of the en-
tomologist, and farmers planting wind
breaks should be on the lookout for it.
1t is dark brown beetle, about half an
inch long, with a long snout 1t has
a conspicuous white patch on the rear
part of its back, and some whitish on
its sides near the head. 1t makes hole
in the poplar stem or trunk, lays an egg
therein, and the larva Matching bores
into the bark, and into the solid wood.
When trees are young they are easily
killed by this pest. When only branch
or stem is affected, it may be cut off in
June, with the contained worm, and
burned with the sulprit inside. good
preventative to young stock in the nur-
sery or elsewhere would be a whitewash
on the trunks, containing "A liberal allow
ance of Paris green, applied two or
three times during May and early June.
Earring the trees in May and June, in
the morning, causing the beetles to drop
upon sheet below is also suggested.

WHAT ROME THINKS
THE P0PES PHYSICIAN ENDORSES
AN AMERICAN REMEDY.
DIR. Lapponi Uses DIR. Williams Pink Pills
In His Practice Because Results
Meet His Expectations.

DIR. Lapponi Uses DIR. Williams Pink Pills
In His Practice Because Results
Meet His Expectations.
DR.. Lapponi, the famous physician to
the Vatican, whose name has recently
come SO greatly to the front on account
of his unremitting attention to His
Holiness, the late Pope Leo XIII, and
the high esteem and confidence with
which he is regarded by the present
Pope, His Holiness Plus X, is man of
commanding genius. He is more than
a mere man of science; he is man of
original and independent mind. Un-
trammeled by the "etiquette of the
medical profession and having used DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in
his practice with good results, he freely
avows the facts and endorses the value
of this remedy with an authority which
no one will venture to question.
Or. Lapponi's Letter.
81 certify that I have used DIR.
Williams Pink Pills in four cases
of the simple an8mia of develop
ment. After few weeks of treat
ment, the result came fully up to my
expectations. For that reason L
shall not fail in the future to extend
the use of this laudable preparation
not only in the treatment of other
forms of the category of an8mia or
chlorosis, but also in cases of neuras-
thenia and the like"
(Signed) GIUSEPPE LAPPoNI,
Via del Gracchi 332, Rome.
The "simple anamia OF development, /"
referred to by DR.. Lapponi, is of course,
that tired, languid condition of young
girls, whose development to womanhood
is tardy and whose health, at that period,
is so often imperiled. His opinion of
the value of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People at that time is of the
highest scientific authority, and it con-
firms the many published cases in which
anamia and other diseases of the blood,
aswell as nervous diseases such as ner-
vous prostration, neuralgia, st. Vitus'
dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia
have been cured by these pills. They
are commended to the public for their
efficiency in making new blood and
strengthening weak nerves. After
such an endorsement they will be &C.
copied by the medical and scientific
world at their full value.

MERRYY0UNGFOLKS
Receptions Held Last Evening
for School Students.
Societies Entertain Strangers
From Other Towns.
From Saturdays Daily.

Students who contemplate affiliating
| with the Baptist Young Peoples union
were given merry time last evening in
the Baptist chapel on South Broad
street The entire gathering aggregated
about a hundred and fifty. The guests
were received and taken care of by an
exceedingly attractive reception commit
tee. of which DIR. Holbrook was chair
man, and Mrs. Holbrook, Mrs. j. E. Hart
and Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. M. Palmer were
the other members. Games of many
kinds were played and later on in the
evening was rendered musical and lit
erary program. A vocal solo was sung
| by Miss Laura Potter, who was compell-
ed to respond to an encore. Goldie and
Silvie Whipple, the musical twins, sang
three times, to the unbounded delight of
the audience. Miss Mabel Moore render
ed "a very pretty volcal solo. Mrs.
Charles Northrop entertained the guests
with graphophone. Refreshments were
served and merry time enjoyed by all.
Nearly two hundred young people at
tended the reception given last evening
| by the Presbyterian Christian Endeavor
society to students who have come to
the city to attend school. The affair
was held in the meeting room in the rear
part of the Presbyterian church and was
entirely informal. One unique feature
was the array of pumpkin jack-o'lan
terms, along the edge of the balcony and
on the rostrum. Each of the throng
was given a slip of paper with the name
of the partner who was to be found and
accompanied to supper in the dining
room below. AS SO many of the company
were utter strangers to each other, it
was a very difficult task to make up
all the couples, and the affair was all
the merrier on that account. .a
Ice cream and cake were served in the
dining room in the basement. The guests
then returned to the reception hall,
where about half of them gathered about
the piano and sang nearly all the popu-
lar airs, of the day, The rest made
merry with various kinds 3 of games
drop the handkerchief" was played for
about an hour by fifty more. Later
quite a number ranged themselves in
ring and enjoyed game of5"Blind mans
buff" This affair had some very cur
ious and mirth provoking incidents.
Last evening the Ladies' Aid society
of the Methodist church gave social
supper at the church. The affair was
in charge of the fourth, fifth and sixth
divisions, and was under the direction
of Mrs. Temple and Mrs. Haggard. A
splendid time was enjoyed and the event
was great success.
