Parasite For eypsy Moth.
In Its campaigns against the various
insect pests which rayage the crops Of
the country the bureau Of entomology
of the department Of agriculture usual
~ proceeds on the theory that every
species has an enemy or parasite in
another insect. 1t was following out
this theory that family Of large ants
known as keleps was imported to Tex
aB to fight the cotton boil weevil, but
without success, as the ants could not
survive the winters in this country.
Now the government entomologists
have discovered parasite Of the
gypsy moth, which has damaged trees
and shrubbery In Massachusetts to the
extent Of many hundreds of thousands
Of dollars, These parasites, which were
discovered in southern Europe, range
in size from insects too small to be
seen without the aid OF microscope
to others as large as mosquitoes. DR..
L, Q. Howard, chief OF the bureau Of
entomology, expects to go to Europe
soon for the purpose of Importing into
the United States several hundred
thousand gypsy moths infested with
the parasites, which will be distributed
over those sections Of New England
where the moths have done the most
damage.

What Words Can Do,

"Any one who swears," declared the
bishop Of Carlisle, "manlfests the beg.
garllness Of his vocabulary" The Con.
cord Patriot puts 1t in this fashion:
"People swear because they do not
know the possibilities of plain Eng
lish or have not the skill to manipulate
it SO that 1t Will yield the amount OF
fire they want. You can do almost
anything with common words. No
matter how tame and llfeless they
look standing in stupid rows as il
they didn't know enough to come in
when 1t rained, they can be made to
dance like imps, to frolic like fairies.
to fioat angelwise on light wings, to
glow like fire spirits. They can do
things that make the ordinary bits Of
profanity look like feeble scarecrows
Stiffened up with fence stake. The

Gators please make a note-ls merely
wit enough to handle your words so
that swearing will seem like baby talk
In comparison"

rho Kindn.,, Of thD Poor.

The old adage that the poor are the
5est friends of the poor was instanced
In the story of a chambermaid, who is
young widow with two children to
support. After lingering sickness the
younger Of the children died, and, the
young mothers bank account having
been depleted from defraylng the ex-
penses Of the weeks of medicine and
doctors visits, she was obliged to con,
tract debt at the undertaker's. After
that she paid a small monthly INSTALL
ment until the bill was half settled,
when one day there came through the
mail receipt for the remainder. The
receipt was accompanied by a badly
written and blotted note from a scrub.
woman in large uptown hotel, who
knew of the trouble, knew the family
and the circumstances and in her note
explained that she had no family nor
near relatives and that she earned
enough TO support herself and that she
waited TO use this surplus money for
the little mother, who needed all that
she could make extra to support the
remaining child. As scrubwomen re-
ceive only so or rs cents day, one
will readily appreciate the spirit which

BY CHARLES ". ARTHUR.
Washington, Feb. TO- Especial l.
Representative Lamar of Florida has
formulated a plan which, If carried
out, he thinks will prevent the worst
aspects of lobbying at the capitol. In
line with his idea he has introduced a
bill which provides that any person
acting as counsel or agent in the in
terest Of any measure pending before
congress shall be required to register
such fact and that it shall be unlawful
to attempt to influence the vote Of any
member Of congress except by means
Of statements made in hearings before
regularly constituted committees Vic
tation of these regulations is made a
miSdemcanor punishable by fine or
Imprisonment or both. There is not
the slightest possibility Of the bill be-
Ing acted on at this session, and its pas
sage at any other session is extremely
doubtful, but II nevertheless has served
to call the attention Of the public to
the need of regulating lobbying in some
way. Contrary TO the general impress
sion, very little actual lobbying is done
at the capitol building. Lobbyists do
not haunt the corridors there ready to
buttonhole any member who may go
by-that is, the real lobbyists do not.
The Eicn who have charge of move
ments .or or against big bills do their
work ut their hotels. at private din
ners, etc. Then, too, 1t should not be
forgotten that the representatives Of
many special interests are to be found
In congress itself.
A Joke on the Senate.
When the senate adopted a resolu.
ton calling on the interstate com
merce commission for all papers, docu-
ments and general data relating to the
employment of Messrs. Hanks and
Hartman by thee commission, at the
request Of the president, the commits
sioners found 1t impossible to have
copies Of the many exhibits made be-
fore adjournment. Consequently 1t
was decided to send the originals, and
the result was that whole wagon
load of reports, statements and docu-
ments Of various kinds has been I'M
loaded on the senate. The mass was
made up into twenty-five boxes and
large packages, which INSTRUCTED one
Of the senate corridors during the
greater part Of legislative day. Now
that the exhibits have been received
nobody seems to know what should b,
done with them. 1t is obviously I'm

of Wisconsin was once an actor. a

La Toilette, referring 10 the many
lectures he has delivered in theaters,
"but never was an actor" His
manner during the delivery Of his
speeches in the senate often has
caused strangers in the gallery to refer
to him as having at least some Of the
attributes Of members Of the theatrical
profession. SO far MS known, the only
member Of congress who ever was a
real actor is Representative Julius

Nearly every civilized country on

King Edward OF England HonorS a
Union Stonemason.
King Edward has conferred the honor
Of knighthood onV. S. Crossmans mayor
of Cardiff, South Wales. This an
nouncement has an especial signif-
canoe because of the fact that the new
knight is a stonemason and an official
in the union Of his trade. He was elect
ed mayor Of Cardiff as the Labor candi-
date and is the Labor party represen-
tative in the municipal council. he is
being saluted by all classes OF British
ers as the first labor knight" and
leading labor men from all over Great
Britain are sonding him congratula-
tions. 49,.
At first Mayor Crossman had some
doubts as to whether it would be well
for him to accept the honor Of knight
hood, because OF. doubt as to how his
fellow laborers might look upon IT, Il
is reported that the trades union lead
ers almost unanimously are pleased at
what is considered a desire upon the
part Of the King to honor the cause OF
labor
Sir William Crossman is said TO be
man Of retiring disposition. He is
stanch non-conformist and lives in
the humblest possible style.
The King has further pleased the
workers of Wales by promising to es-
tablish a new order which shall take
the form Of decoration for miners who
display bravery IN pit disasters.
