A STRANGE INSECT,
The Avyeto Is Half Plant and To
 Found In New Zealand.

The Avyeto Is Half Plant and To
 Found In New Zealand.
 The awetO, as the Maoris. or natives or New Zealand, call it. or H.pialis yi- rescens. as naturalists term 1t, Is found in New Zealand and is a vegetable ca tc-piuar Of from three to four Inches ln length, and SO far science has not been able to say whether it Is a vegetable or sI insect. It is always found at the foot of large myrtle trees that have beautiful red flowers on their stems and a beautiful creeping clemais as white as the snow. The Maoris call this tree by the name of rata. The awetO uurjeS itself among the roots Of the rata a few inches below the ground and there lives until it is full grown, when 1t uudergoeS a most wonderful change. The spore Of a vegetable fun gus, termed by naturalistS SOphOeTia robertSil, fastenS itself to the neck of the caterpillar just between the head and the first ring and then grows up ward to the height Of from six to eight inches. Many people assert that there is never more than one stem, but such Is not the case, for some have been found with two stems, although very rarely.
 The stem shoots u9 out of the E,ound above where the caterpillar Is living about two or three inches. Below the earth it grows into the awet1 until it fills up every possible space within the outer skin without changing the form of the insect in the slightest way what socver. but simply substituting a vege table matter for animal matter. AS soon as this takes place both the plant and caterpillar become dry and hard and die. but retain exactly the same form as when alive The whole has brown color. and the insect appears a wooden caterpillar with a huge horn standing up from the back of Its neck. How the caterpillar manages to propa- gate it's species no one can tell. Usual ly the caterpillar becomes a chrysalls. the chrysalis changes into a moth, the moth lays eggs, and these eggs again become caterpillars, and so on without stopping. Many reasons are given why the plant shoots up from the back of the neck of the awetO. One is that the aweto has a slimy substance oozing out from its neck, which while the aweto Is boring at the foot of the rata tree for its only food catches the seeds of the fungus and holds 1t fast there till the latter begins to grow. When 1t has sucked all the vegetable life out of the aweto it must naturally die, for it finds no further nourishment. The awetO is often found In large numbers.

Committeeman Sullivan. of Illinois,
and John Hopkins deliberately robbed
the Democrats of Illinois of thier po-
litical right. Mr.. Bryan says he was
ANXIOUS to give Mr.. Sullivan a chance
to retire without fight, but inasmuch
as he has refused to do so, it is probab-
ly just as wei for if we must fight
to purify the rarty organization, the
sooner it begins the better" Mr.. Sui
livan says Mr.. Bryan has been misin-
formed and that he is being Influenced
by Messrs. Dunlap and Thompson.

Gov. Beckham at Lexington.

Gov. Beckham opened his campaign
at Lexington Wednesday night. He ar
rived in LeXina ton on special train,
accompanied by his wife, a number of
her friends and several Frankfort poll
tlcans. He was met at the depot in
Lexington by Mayor Combs and his
henchmen and escorted to the Phoenix
Hotel, where he received a number Of
friends, but we are informed by one
who was present that the down town
reception looked like frost to him. 1t
was anything but an enthusiastic affair.
He was not out to the auditorium where
he delivered his speech and could not
say how about his reception there.
His speech was lengthy and mainly
IN defense of his administration and in
answering the charges preferred by
Attorney General Hays, taking shot
. at Senator McCreary as he waded
through his manuscript. He did not
mention or take stand on any national
question and one would have thought
ne was running for some state office
instead for the United States Senator
ship.
We heartily agree with the Licking
ton Herald when it says: eve should
like to see joint debates between the
candidates for Senator and also between
the candidates for Governor. The
voters would be in better position to
get the real facts at ISSUE in such de-
Date than CANVASS in which Governor
Seckham speaks in Lexington Wednes-
DAY night and Senator McCreary an
sWers him in Henderson Saturday night,
IN which Judge Hager speaks in Mt.
sterling one week and General Hays
answer him the next week.

Insurance Commissioner Henry R..
prewitt states that but few reports
have been received in the State from
tb)se who carry insurance in unau-
tborjzed insurance companies. The last
legislature passed a law requiring each
Darson that takes insurance in unau-
+borized companies. to report the same
upon the first day of July, or within
thirty days thereafter, and pay a tax
of 81 upon each 500 of premiums paid.
The law provides penalty of not less
than 500 LOr more than $500 for fail
IRE to make this report. The Commits
sioner states there is a great deal of
this kind of insurance in the State, and
many persons will be subjected to the
penalty unless the reports are made.
