collection of the bugs.
A large collection of the more

mosquitoes, flies. grasshoppers and
bees have been collected since their

sophy ], has been an entomologist
of much note for the past thirty
FIVE years and has been sent on
collection expeditions all through
Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona
and many other States IN the
Union, but has never before been
sent to Texas. He believes that
this is great State for his line of
work and is much interested here
DR.. Adams, one of the party, IS

university.
Mr.. E. s. Tucker has acted as
DIR. Shows assistant for several
years,
The University of Kansas already
has as large a collection of bugs
and insects as any other education
al institution in the United States,
but it is in an endeavor to increase
the size of this collection that the
party in Galveston at present has
been sent out.-Galveston News.

favor the Emperor himself fell sick,
to be cured by DR.. Allen. This gave
him the title of court physician, and
a commanding position at the palace,

Another evidence of the high favor
in which he was held was his appoint

He returned after time. to take up
his routine missionary work, but in

During the Worlds Fair at Chicago he
served as commissioner for Korea. In
