MIIIIon Dollar caterpIIIars.

A few years ago a scientific person
in MASSACHUSETTS, imported some cater
pillars that Interested him. and kept
them in a bottle But one day the
bottle tipped over and some of the
caterpillars escaped into the scien-
lists garden and presently stocked it
with gypsy moths To catch them
and their descendants the Bay State
has since spent about a million dol
lars of public money. They have cost
1t many million dollars besides in
damages. The old method of fight
ing them was to find and destroy the
cocoons. The State finally gave that
up. much to the regret of Ilany of its
citizens. The bugs have since in
creased very much and carried de-
struction into the woods. II is now
proposed 10 fight these pets in the
latest fashion by breeding parasites
which will attack them That method
IS recommended by Mr. Kroebele. Of
Alameda. Cal. who tried it success
fully in that state for white scale.
The Massachusetts Foregtry Associa-
ton favofs the experiment, which will
not cost much, and Mr. Rochelle viii
doubtless be invited to bring his para
sites 70 Massachusetts and sick them
on. The whole country is concerned
IN this experiment. because a Massa-
chusetts Congressman has invited
Congress to declare the gypsy moth a
national enemy and to appropriate
S250.000 to fight him. The parasite
cure is a modern wonder and has been
effective in cases of great moment.
Mr.. Koebele says it viii not wipe out
the gypsy moths, but will keep them
down. The boil weevil may presently
be restrained by the same methods

fact that we hurry our children along

were not SO wise They did not push

studies of life so soon. But now
well, the idea is aptly put in bit OF

IT runs:

Dante was born in a certain house.
even the room being pointed out To
this almost the whole travelling public
has come IN pilgrimage; but alas! a
doubt has arisen. and il is now said
that Dante did not live there at all.
The documents which should estab-
llsh the right OF the matter are few.
bur sufficiently plain TO show that, If
not just there, the Alighieri could not
have been far off. One states that in
1880 the family were living in the
parish of San Martina. and near the
church, rs there was a heated ques-
ton about a fig tree which Dante's an
cestors had planted and which they
were obliged TO root up. In 1877,
after Dante's birth, they were again
in trouble. this time with the abbot
of the Church of the Badia, so that
they were evidently still in the same
neighborhOod and, in fact. there is
another document which seems to say
that Dante's father lived among the
people Of San MARITIME. while others
show that after the poets death they
were still there Thus the neighbOr
hood Is established but the house is a
more difficult matter Several build
ings have been demolished. but the
only thing which has come to light
is wall with a coat OF arms. the same
as that found on several other houses
of the district and on the Church Of the
Badia. But that proves nothing for
or against. as they may have been
added later when the property changed
hands. There are documents. they
say. tracing the different ownerships
Of the houses from 1892, at which
time they were owned by an uncle of
Dante's. to 1869 Thus the question

The lid is off again. Mayor McAleer
and the board OF police commissioners
suddenly reversed themselves yester-
day and declared for the open door in
the granting Of saloon permit trans
fers. This action is contrary to public
sentiment and in opposition to the
welfare of the city. Incidentally, if
the saloon licenses are worth thousands
OF dollars to the brewers why should
they be worth only $50 to the city? The
time has come when the rate for these
licenses should be at least doubled
The rate was fixed at $50 at a period
when the city was only one-half it's
present size, and II the permits are TO
pass into the hands of a brewery trust
or hawked about the streets for t5OOO
10 $4,000. surely the city is at least
sntitled to Increase ats rate TO slOO.
