The Tachina fly, the deadly en-
envy OF the browntail and gypsy
moths, and of various other insects,
had made it's appearance in Amer
lea. A cargo of the flies has been
shipped to this country from Japan,
and as soon as it arrives the flies
will be liberated to breed. A por.
ton of them will be sent to Denver.
The flies are not dangerous to
human beings or to valuable plants,
but are, on the contrary, highly
beneficial, as they live almost en-
tirely on caterpillars. The Tachina
fly is so named because of its swift
ness in flight. In appearance it is
similar to the ordinary house fly,
except that it is larger and the body
is covered with bristles.

tween the two hills at that point.
The bridge is 12O feet in height and

The Conquered Banner.

Furl that banner, for tbs weary:
Round its staff It's dropping drearv
Furl it, fold il, is best;
For there's not a man TO wave it.
And there's not a sword to save It.
And there's not one left TO lave it
In the blood which heroes gave il
Furl il, hide it-lot it rest
Take that banner down. It's tattered:
Broken is It's staff and shattered:
And the valiant hosts are scattered
Over whom it foated high:
oh, tits hard for us to fold il.
Hard to think there's none to hold Il:
Hard that those who once unrolled it
Now must furl il with a sigh.
Furl that banner! furl it sadly
Once ten thousands hailed it gladly,
And ten thousands wildly madIy
Swore it should forever wave;
Swore that foeman's sword should never
Hearts like theirs entwined discover:
Till that flag should float forever
Der their freedom or their gravel
Furl it, for the hands that grasped il.
And the hearts that fondly claspci it,
Cold and dead are lying low;
And that banner it is trailingl
While around il sounds the wailing
OF its people in their woe.
For, though conquered they adore IT,
Love the cold, dead hands that bore IL
Weep for those who fell before IT,
Pardon those who trailed and tore il!
But oh, wildly they deplore it,
Now who furl and fold it so.
Furl that banner True, tits CORY,
Yet tbs wreathed around with glory.
And twill live in song and story,
Though its folds are in the dust.
For its fame on brightest pages,
Penned by poets and by sages,
Shall go sounding down the ages
Furl its folds though now we must.
Furl that banner. softly, slowly
Treat il gently-it is holy
For it droops above the dead,
Touch il not-unfold II never
Let it droop there, furled foreve-.
For It's peoples hopes are deadl
