tions on that day will be on the same

longer period than in any other

the best in the country. will spend
the week at the Indiana fair; Leo
Stevens and his airship, vaudeville
and acrobatic features and other

FATE OF THE JUNE BUGS.
Awful Punishment That Was De-
creed By an Ancient Council,

Awful Punishment That Was De-
creed By an Ancient Council.
"Berne has, an official collector of
June bugs" writes a correspondent of
the Chicago News from Switzerland.
This parsonage Is appointed by the
city council when the triennial pest of
June bugs occurs, and he is empow-
cred to destroy all the insects that may
be brought to him. Each owner of a
small estate is obliged to gather five
pounds Of bugs, and those who happen
to be the proprietors of larger pieces
of property must collect proportion
ately more. For each pound that is
missing from this obligatory amount a
fine of 10 cents is imposed, but If more
than the required quota is forthcom-
ing premium Of 2 cents a pound is
paid. This remuneration is offered
also to others besides the property
owners. A landholder who entirely
neglects to gather any bugs at all is
subject to a fine Of from S. to $40.
School children receive permission to
enter large estates. where they shake
the trees and poke long sticks about in
their endeavors TO dislodge as many
bugs as possible.
In tines OF old, the ancient chroni-
clers tell us, it was the custom to at
tempt to rid the country of these un-
welcome visitors by citing them into
court and by banishing them from the
country, but the willy insects failed to
obey the summons and continued to
fly about in the face of the law, laying
eggs promiscuously and contrary to
edict In certain village it was de
termined to make a terrible and last
ing example of all the insects found
within it's borders With considerable
expenditure Of time and patience guam
titles of bugs were collected and placed
in huge sack. Deliberation was held
as to the fate of these hard backed
prisoners. Ordinary death was consid-
cred too light q punishment for such
offenders. A hideous end must he

"A procession of the inhabitants of
the village, advisers and councillors,
wise men and children. wendell its way
slowly toward the place of execution,
the summit of a high peak. This was
laboriously climbed, an exeeutioner
with the bag of buzzing bugs in the
lead With due regard for the respon-
| sibility and business of their act, the
wise men approached the edge of the
precipiee. The bugs were to be igno-
miniously dashed to pieces on the

But instead of falling like SO many
humps of lead, as they ought TO have

the amazement of all, spread their

A MUSTARD POULTICE.
1t Made u Lot of Trouble and Didnf
Cure the Cold.

Lord Darlington used TO be a great
practical joker, but he was once the
victim Of his own reputation Accord
ing to the Dundee Advertiser, he was
at hotel in Cape Town, In the same
hotel were a young couple, and, the
husband having bad cold, the wife
left her room to obtain for him the
solace of a mustard poultice. She left
him asleep and, thinking she knew her
way, descended the stairs and, procur-
ing particularly virulent connection,
made her way back to her room. But
doors are much alike in hotels, and,
seeing one ajar, as she had left her
own, she entered. Creeping quietly to
the bedside, she saw, as she thought,
the form of her sleeping lord and mas
ter. Hastily bending over him, she
placed the fatal irritant upon his chest.
No sooner had she done so than a
movement Of the sleeper revealed. to
her horror, that she had made a terrible
mistake. Too frightened to recapture
the discriminating poultice, she fed
from the room and, rushing down the
bolted herself in 1t was but min
ute, and the storm broke The hotel
was In an uproar. The mustard poui-
tice had been placed on the chest Of
the elderly governor general! The ex-
plosion of his wrath, his bowls Of rage
as the mustard did its work, brought
servants and manager to his bedside.
The situation did not permit Of an
explanation. Furious with Indignation,
he declared himself the victim of a
gross joke, and the efforts of the mai
ire d'hotel to pacify him were in vain.
He swore that the practical joker was
nobody else than Lord Darlington, and
he next day, Tuning and indignant,
left the place. So did a very contrite
young wife and a husband whose cold
was no better.
