.s.s-,ss ~..-..-.
The writer on his way home from
the business section OF our city one
rainy evening recently, was industri-
ously looking for our street lights. 1t
was after the hour the moon had de-
scended over the western hills suffi-
GENTLY to require lights, according
to ordinance and equity. All at once
they appeared, but-oh My! how
dull. Some OF them had the appear
ances OF being tho first bulbs used
when our system was installed. Won
der IL they were ever all renewed?
Our zinc works is apparently on
the boom, and doubtless every citi-
zen is glad TO see it. There might be
a little said in this connection in re-
gard TO the smoke. OF course 1t is
well known that such plant cannot
run without making more or less
smoke. But it does seem that at
times there is an unlimited supply.
when the smoke was so dense that
you could scarcely see sun, moon or
stars, over a large part of city, and
every person you met would be
coughing and saying, My! What a
horrid thing this acid is to breathe.n
Is there "a reasonable excuse for leav-
ing all of the smoke ont at once, as
is apparently done once in a while =?
Please remember, even your poor
neighbors who have to put up with
this may be your friends.
Those who have had the city's
welfare at heart sufficiently to plant
trees in our little parks have done
well. With little added care and
attention for few years while the
trees are small, the time will come
when they will be a source of great
pleasure and comfort to the people.
Also the making of flower beds in
the various parts of our city, mainly,
as / understand it, by private indi-
viduals, at their own time and eX-
pense, is very commendable, and
adds charm to our little city among
the hills.
There is much said about city inn
provements, which is very proper.
The city has made a fine beginning
in this respect in building our new
high school, and the writer thinks
that the committee or authorities
who had charge of grading the
grounds so nicely and getting such
beautiful lawn the first year is
especially entitled to credit.
The matter Of cement walks is be-
ing agi lied by our city fathers. This
is rightA But are they doing all they
can to assist in the introduction of
the said walks? Should they not
encourage their construction in ev-
cry way possible ? The writer, for
instance, thinks that in the matter of
crushed stone the city should furnish
it at the actual cost of raising and
crushing, which, it seems, ought to
be less than So cents load. If the
city charges s. cents load, and GUS
toners pay 80 cents load for haul
ing, it makes stone cost Sl.35 "A load,
which is too high to be used in ce-
ment walks. OBSERVER.

Poisoning of the Brown Tail Moth.

"What ails that child's legs?" was the
question heard asked one day last sum
mer, concerning little barefooted girl
who was playing about with other chill
dren. II don't wonder you ask" the
girls mother replied. "We live in the
brown tail moth section of Massachu-
setts and these scars are the result OF
the brown tail Itch" While speaking
she pushed up the sleeve of her dress
and showed several similar purple scars
ON her arms and even two or three on
her face and neck. "You have no idea"
she continued, "what we suffer from the
pest. Everywhere one of those cater
pillar hairs touches the skin there is a
little poisonous barb on the end which
works into the flesh and causes erup-
ton, much worse than mosquito bite.
They stick on to clothes drying on the
line and then work into our bodies.
They are everywhere on the grass and as
our skirts brush them off they work
through our stockings. The burning
and itching are almost unbearable, es-
pecially after we retire. 1t ia impossible
to help scratching the skin of. People
are often obliged to leave town during
June"
The lesson is plain. 1t is not only the
farmer and Orchardist who should be
interested in fighting this new pest, but
eyery man, woman and child living in
city or country is concerned.-Mrs. V. p.

General Average of the State.

The hay crop of last year seems to con-
tain about as much nutritive value as in
average years, in most parts of the State;
several counties report deficiency in
this respect. There will be but little
change in the varieties Of folders to he
grown the coming season; in some sec
tiOns a little more grain and corn for
fodder will pr abably be raised. Acreage
of land plOwed last fall as compared with
former years, 90 per cent. Indications
are that the corn crop will not be mate
rally increased; in some counties there
will be q somewhat larger acreage of
sweet corn planted. Cost of wintering

wears, 1OS per cent. No increase In the
number of sheep is reported from large

reported from some sections. A slight

An English quartermaster and four
Lascars had been licked from off the
forecastle by the greedy tongue Of a
huge wave. The succeeding surge flung
the five men back against the quarter.
One of the black sailors was pitched
aboard with fractured leg and other
injuries. The others were smashed
against the iron hull and disappeared.
For one trenulous moment the en-
gines slowed. The ship commenced to
veer off into the path Of the cyclone.

graph bell tangled Full speed ahead"
Poor Jackson" he murmured. "One

it, in fact. Probably ice was suscepti'

Suddenly the passengers still seated
experienced a prolonged sinking sensa

pressed hard into their chairs. which
creaked and tried to swing around or
their pivots. AS the ship yielded stitfly

From the promenade deck the list
less groups watched the rapid advance
of the gale. There was mournful spec
ulation upon the Sirdar's chances OF
reaching Singapore before the next
evening.
Iris stood somewhat apart from the
other passengers. The wind had fresh
ened, and her hat was tied closely over
her ears. She leaned against the taf-
rail-, enjoying the cool breeze after
hours of sultry heat. The sky was
cloudless yet, but there was queer
tinge of FURNISHED copper In the all
pervading sunshine. The sea was cold
IL blue. The life had gone out of it. 1t
was no longer inviting and translucent
Long sullen undulations swept noise
lessly past the ship. Once after a
steady climb up rolling hill Of water
the Sirdar quickly 'pecked at the sue
cceding valley, and the propeller gave
couple of angry flaps on the surface,
while tremor ran through the stout
iron rails OIL which the girls arms
rested.
Tic crew were busy too. Squads or
Lascars raced about, industriously obe-
dient to the short shrill whistling of
jenadars and quartermasters. Boat
las..ings were tested and frightened,
canvas awnings stretched across the
deck forward, ventilator cowls twisted
to new angles and matches clamped
down over the wooden gratings that
covered the holds. Officers. spotless in
white linen. fitted quietly to and fro.
When the watch was changed Iris
noted that the "chief" appeared In an
old blue suit and carried oilskins' over
his arm as he climbed to the bridge.
Nature looked disturbed and fitful,
and the ship responded to her mood.
There was sense of preparation in
the air, of coming ordeal, of restless
torcboding. Chains clanked with a
noise the girl never noticed before; the
tramp of hurrying men OIL the hurri-
cane deck overhead sounded heavy and
hollow. There was Il squeaking OF
chairs that was abominable when peo.
pie gathered up books and wraps and
! staggered ungracefully toward the
companionway. Altogether Miss Deane
was not wholly pleased with the pre-
liminaries of a typhoon. whatever the
realities might be.
