killing The Squash Bug.

The gray bug that infests squash
vines is a tough customer. Poison does
not always kill him, because he does
not eat the leaves, but thrusts his beak
through the outer covering 70 suck the
juice, and does not get much of the
poison. In a series of experiments in
the methods of preventing the attacks
of the squash vine borer the preventives
employed were paris green at the rate
of half teaspoonful to two gallons,
corn cobs dipped in coal tar, and ker-
osene emulsion. The application of the
paris green and the kerosene was re
peated after every hard rain until Sep
tember the cobs were dipped in coal
tar again once in three weeks. All three
OF the applications seemed to be bene-
fetal, with perhaps a little something
in favor of the corn cObs as being the
cheapest and most convenient The
odor of the tar has no effect on the in
sects. but seems to repel the moth,
causing her to lay her eggs elsewhere.

R.,,wax Accidents MT Night.

George NJ. Stratton, the Johns Hop
kins university expert on railway statis-
tics, discusses in the May Century the
subject Of railway disasters at night. and
makes practical suggestions for change
of system which would minimize acct
dents. Prof. Stratton wants to shift the
responsibility of the travellers safety from
the color faculty TO the space sense by
making the vane of the semaphore lumin-
Gus at night. Such a line of fire would
be strikingly different from the usual
lights of buildings or streets, and would
stand out distinct from the colored lights
which it might seem wise to continue for
other purposes. This continuous line of
light, moreover, would be visible at far
greater distance than is the present single
light. 1t would at once remove all need
of discerning whether the light burned
white or green or red, with all the risk
which the distinction brings. 1t would
be virtually continuing at night the same
system of signals which is used during
the day.

DRUG TRUST is ENDED.
Court Enjoins Combine on Complaint
of Government.

of Government.
The so-called drug trust was per-
petual!y enjoined from continuing its
operations by the entering of a decree
in the United States Circuit Court for
the district of Indiana on the complaint
of the United States government filed
by Joseph b. Healing. United States
District Attorney The defendants,
ninety-two in number. who are the
members, officers, directors, agents and
attorneys of the National Association
Of Retail Druggists. the Wholesale
Druggists Association. tripartite pro-
prietors, blacklist manufacturers" "di-
rect contract propretors,' wholesale
contract proprietors" and Charles c.
Bombaugh, are perpetually enjoined
from combining and conspiring to re-
strain trade in drugs, fix prices by
agreement, blicklist retailers who cut
prices, or to refuse to sell TO any re-
taller on equal terms.
All publication of blacklists is for
hidden and all contracts and agree
ments covered by the charges are de-
clared void. The direct contract serial
number plan is prohibited as well as
the securing of the adoption of sched-
ules for the sale of drugs.
Charles C. Bombaugh was charged
in the bill of complaint with being en-
gagged in printing and circulating lists
called blacklists, which contained the
names of druggists throughout the
country who sold proprietary articles
and medicines at prices less than those
which the alleged combination ordered.
As charged, he would send list each
month to every retail and wholesale
druggist in the United States who be-
longed to the association of those ac-
cused of cutting prices and as result
of this these aggressive cutters" as
they were called, could not buy goods.
1t was further charged that those ac-
cused of cutting prices on proprietary
medicines were unable to purchase any
kind of drugs from the members of the
several associations. All such practices
are perpetually enjoined.
The decree entered was dictated by
the government attorneys and agreed
to by the defendants. With the enter
ing of the decree the litigation came
to an end with a complete victory for
the government.

Sensational Attempt to Destroy Edi-
flee at BIarinette.
Incensed at attacks for alleged law
lessness ard violation of the law made
by Rev. Francis A. Pease. pastor of the
Grand Methodist Episcopal church OF
Marinette, it is believed that a deliberate
attempt was made by unknown persons
to destroy the church. Late one after
noon a load of cord wood was dumped
into the basement of the church and two
hours later. when the janitor started a
fire in the furnace he found that the wood
had been drenched with kerosene, evident
~ by some one who had gained entrance
to the cellar by the rear door, with the
intention of later setting fire. Mr.. Pease
recently received an anonymous letter
threatening his life and destruction of
the church unless he stopped his exposure
and attacks on the wine room and saloon
violations. He paid no attention to the
letter About two months ago his church
caught fire from some unknown cause and
it is now believed that it was of incen-
diary origin.

There are stormy times ahead for
cigarette smokers Two years ago the
Legislature thought it had put the max
ings" and cigarettes themselves out of
the reach of smokers. 1t is found, how
ever, that this legislation had little effect
in diminishing the consumption of cigar
cites. Its only effect was TO make it
slightly more difficult to get them. Early
in the session the Legislature passed bill
prohibiting children from smoking cigar
cites in public places. Now the Assem-
bly, has advanced a bill to passage which
prohibits the smoking of cigarettes in
public places by anyone. Further. no
cigarettes OK markings can be exposed to
tempt the eye of the smoker. Any infrac-
ton of the law will bring down ON the
head of the offender fine of not to ex-
coed $40 or Imprisonment not to exceed
ten days in the county jail.

Finds Eli Too strong.

Gov. Davidson has discovered that the
Domachowski smoking BILL as it passed
both houses of the Legislature, was much
more drastic than was supposed The
first section prohibits the smoking of
tobacco in any form by boys under is
years of age, unless accompanied by par
ent or guardian, but section prohibits
any person from allowing boys to smoke
on their premises. This would make a
father liable to fine or Imprisonment il he
allowed his boy to smoke in his own
home, although exempt from prosecution
if he accompanied him to some public
place to smoke. The bill will be with
drawn for correction. The error was in
the Senate amendment to the Assembly
bill.

browns WHILE FISHING.
Wood County Lad Meets Death as
Result of Odd Accident.

Mrs. A. Kopza and her 14-year-old
son Frank of the town OF Sigel, went fish
ing with sad results. The boy wandered
away from his mother and after an alb
sence of several hours the mother became
anxious. A searching party was formed
and they saw Franks fish pole in the
water just below a bridge and upon in
vestigation the dead body of her boy was
found a short distance from the pole,
with his head in the water, where the
creek was but three feet deep. The sup
position is that Frank was standing on
a log, which projects over the creek, and
in casting his line the hook caught in
the back OF his coat. He evidently threw
the pole on the shore, and endeavored TO
pull the hook out by reaching back of
him. In doing so it would appear that
he fell backward into the water.
