Last year scientific circles were agitated over mosquitoes, and some of the government ento- mologists incubated much litera- ture regarding their destruction and the assertion that they inoc- ulate human beings with fever germs. The mosquito still thrives and manages to get in his work. There has recently arrived in New Orleans from Cuba a con- signment of GOO live mosquitoes en route to St. Louis. They are for the purpose of demonstrating the transmission of yellow fever germs. They are kept in cage and fed on sugar and water. Their eggs are matched in short time and the species is kept in existence in this way, since the youngest take thesplace of those that die. It. is assumed that mi erohes are be1ncathcd.

Senator Bard was the principal advocate in having this legislation passed and it was through his interest and efforts very largely that this project is in the shape presented by the Secretary today. It is but jus tice to him that these facts should be known"

GREAT WORK ABOUT YUMA
One Hundred Thousand Acres to be
 Reclaimed.

Important improvements af- fecting 100000 acres of land in California and Arizona, in the region of Yuma, have been au- thorized by the United States government, says the Los An geles Times. The Times article here quotes the telegram from Chief Engineer Newell printed in these columns last week, and continues:
 Mr. Lippincott was seen by a reporter of the Times and was asked to give a description of the improvements briefly men, toned in the message.
 ''The Yuma project referred to in the telegram said MT. Lippincott, provides for the construction of public works by the federal government on the Colorado river in the vicinity of Yuma, both in California and in Arizona. An act of congress was passed at it's last session providing for this and the open ing of the Yuma Indian reserva- ton.
 "This project provides for the initial reclamation of approxi- mately 100000 acres of land along the following lines:
 "U.) Their irrigation by means of a series of canals on both sides of the river,
 "(2.) A system of levees extend ing down both sides of the river to prevent overflow.
 "(3.) For a system of drainage for the purpose of preventing lands becoming alkaline and to provide for the removal of seep-
 age water that may accumulate
 behind the levees.
 "While this allotment has been
 provided for by the secretary o1
 the interior from the reclamation
 fund, it will be absolutely essen
 tial for the owners of private
 lands that will be supplied under
 this project to comply with the requirements of the law to tht extent of entering into absolut' contracts for the acceptance o the conditions of this federal ac similar to the plan that has beer followed in the Salt river valley 3 near Phoenix. Each privat 3 land owner will have to enter in to such a contract, giving hi : land as security for the refund I ing of these moneys to the fec e eral government, without profit I interest or taxes being charge d against the Irrigator, i'll ten al e nual installmentS.

tello, son of P. C. Costello, who lives on
Prospect avenue, was being driven to the
depot to catch the 5;a3 O'Clock train for

away.
The runabout struck the curb on the
flower plot and the coachman shot through
the air fifteen feet and landed on his head
on the brick pavement. Young Costello
was thrown over the dashboard and hung
head down between the shafts. 1t was
desperate position and everybody expected
to see him kicked to death. Hewas dragged
this way for five hundred feet, when he
managed to free himself and drop from
under the horses heels
He was dazed and badly bruised when
he was picked up, but no bones were broken.

MOVE FOR PEACE CONGRESS-.
No Purpose to Intervene In the Eastern
War. as Russia Has Feared.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-President Roose-
welt has wasted no time in endeavoring to
make good his verbal promise to the Inter-
national Parliamentary Peace Union to
call another peace conference similar to
that which assembled at The Hague at
the instance of the Car.
By his direction, Secretary Hay has in
stituted inquiries at the capitals Of the
Ambassadors and Ministers accredited to
them, and exchanges are now in progress
1t is too early yet to forecast the views Of
the Powers sounded, but the Administra-
ton il hopeful of success.
The President and Secretary Hay are
very much in earnest in this matter, and it
Is not doubted here that whatever the
present disposition of some nations may
be, they will ultimately be brought into an
acceptance of the invitation to participate.
This invitation will not be issued, however,
until it is evident that a sufficient number
of countries will be willing to take part.
That is the object Of the overtures now
being made
The impression prevailing In Russia that
the Presidents proposal Is cloak to cover
an attempt to end the Russian Japanese
war Is secuted here. Both Russia and
Japan have been given to understand
that whenever they were ready to accept
mediation the services of the American
Government we're at their disposal, but that
position Of the United States is entirely
apart from the more general effort to secure
means of adjusting international Diff
ferences by arbitration.

Ordance, U. s. A., who was one Of the
American delegates to the Hague peace
