COTTON SOL WORM.

Mexican cotton boil weeyil ais an enc
my to cotton is the cotton boil worm.
This insect has long been known as de-
stFuctive in Florida, Alabama, Mis-.
sfssippi and Louisiana and in 1870 had
become the principal insect enemy Of
cotton i'll Texas Nevertheless little If
any effort has been made BY plant
ers during the many years Of boll-
worm injury to check its rayages,
ana along with increased cultivation of
cotton from year to year, often to the
exclusion Of any other crops, the losses
from this insect have tended to in
crease, and the injury during the past
two or three years in Texas has been
notable.
Aside, in fact from certain Isolated
localities here and there in the great
cotton belt, Dollworm injury during
1903 appears to have been confined
mostly to Texas and the southern
part Of the Indian Territory. The
most serious injuries in Texas were
IN the northern and central counties of
the eastern portion Of the state, the
loss in each county being estimated at
from 20 to 60 per cent of the crop.
The ravaged district includes the prin-
cipal cotton producing area Of the
state, from which came In 1902 ap-
proximately three-fourths Of the cot
ton crop Of the state. 1t is hard to ar
rive at even an approximate estimate
of the loss. but a conservative view by
a special agent In charge Of cotton
boil worm investigations places 1t at
10000 bales for 1903, which, at valu-
alton of $50 per bale, would mean a
loss Of S4.500,000. Add to this the
value Of the cotton seed. and the total
loss would easily exceed $5,000.000.
The bollworm has a worldwide dis
tribution. 1t need hardly be explained
that the larya known variously as the
bud worm of corn. the tassel worm.
corn ear worm and tomato fruit worm
Is identical with the cotton boil worm.
Bollworm eggs may be easily detected
with the unaided eye on the fresh silk
of corn. As the larvae grow a remark
able diversity of color may become APP
parent, ran@ing from whitish or green
ish to rose color on almost black, with
distinct spots and stripes. A full grown
larva measures from one and quar-
ter to one and a half inches in length.
Corn when in suitable condition is
the preferred food of the bollworm,
and cotton is not materially injured

Manassas Bank Robbery.

An unsuccessful attempt was made to
rob the National Bank of Manassas be.
tween and O'Clock Saturday morn
ing The steel safe containing in the
Deighborhood of SIS, 900, was dynamited,
and though the attempted burglary was
discovered early in the morning, it was
definitely ascertained that the safe bad
not been opened. The charge did not
blow the safe door open, but left the
combination in such shape that it was
difficult to open. When the safe was
finally gotten open, however everything
on the inside was found to be intact.
The burglars effected an entrance to the
bank by boring through the front door.
When on the inside all of the electric
wires were cut, and then began the
work of getting into the vault. A bolt
located near the combination was driven
in and dynamite or glycerine inserted.
In this manner the vault was gotten in-
TO. A private safe in the vault was blown
open, but no money was gotten, as the
safe contained nothing but papers. Some
private safety boxes were broken open,
among these being Postmaster Dodge's.
From this box about 5000 worth of stamps
were stolen.
Why the robbers did not complete their
attempts to open the safe containing the
money is not known, bat it is supposed
that they were driven off by the approach
of day.
Mrs. Augusta Hynson and her young
sou, Reed, live near the bank, and heard
the explosions and knew that the hank
was being robbed, but there was no one
in the house to protect them, and there.
fore Mrs. Hynson was afraid to give an
alarm.

JAPAN AND RUSSIA.

Nemirovich Danchenko, the we'll
known Russian war correspondent, tele'
graphing from Mukden under yester'
days date, says the reports OF the death
of General Kuroki are confirmed. Ac-
cording to his version, at the battle Of
the Shakhe River the splinter Of shell
struck General Kuroki, tearing out q
portion of his breast and abdomen He
died October 4 at Liaoyang and his body
was sent to Japan.
1t is definitely reported from Paris
that France will make no overtures to
Russia in regard to bringing the war in
the East to an end.
There was no change in the situation
on the Shakhe river Saturday, artillery
actions continued, the firing at times be-
coming b savy. General Sakharof re-
ported the repulse of Japanese attack
on a village.
Four battleships, FIVE cruisers and
transports belonging to the Baltic fleet
have arrived at Dakar, on the west COAT
of Africa.
Advices from Using. Chau say that
several vessels laden with supplies have
recently run the blockade at Port
Arthur.
Desultory fighting continues in the
vicinity of the Shakhe river. A part oil
the japanese left army repulsed Rus
sian attack near Wuchentai and Sioo-
canton. The Russians lost GO men.
The main Russian forces are silt en-
camped north of the Snakhe river.
They have tired of their ineffective BON
bardment of the japanese lines, having
daily wasted hundreds Of shells.
Advices from ChefoO say that it IL

MONDAY EVENING. NOV. "A. 1909

I'm now said 10 be almost certain
that one result of the great republican
tidal wave will be the early attempt OF
Representative CrumPacker, OF Indiana,
70 press to passage his bill to readJust
the method of representation in the elec-
toral college and in the House OF Repre-,
sentatives. The republican platform O.
1904 declared ia favor Of such pro-
gramme, and while there are some con-
seryative republicans who doubt the WIS
dom of antagonizing the southern States,
II aopears TO be the party policy TO push
the Crampacker bill. There is nitle
probability of success with this measure
in the Senate this winter, but 1t IS I'M
derstood that the republican leaders are
determined to force it through during
the next two wears, even if they are COM
pclled to adopt the cloture rule IN the
INNER branch of Congress as preIiml'
nary. Success in this direction would
result in cutting down the representation
of eyerv southern State which has re-
strictiye franchise. The republicans are
80 thoroughly entrenched now that II
they can prevent, it will be long time
before the democrats will have another
chance to elect president.
