The Bean Beetle.

Many inquiries are being received in re-
gard to the little reddish brown beetle
with small black spots upon its back that
is now doing so much injury to the beans
along the eastern slope Of the Rocky
Mountains.
The young or larvae Of this beetle are
light yellow Grubs covered with spinss
that feed for the most part on the under
side Of the leaves Of the bean.
The ordinary arssnieal poisons are not
very ef.eetual for the destruction Of this
insect and If applied too freely are likely
to kill the bean.
We have had best success in keeping
this insect in check by simply brushing
the beetles and thsir larvae of the
plants upon the hot ground during the
warrest part Of the day. from about
ll:3o a. m to 2:5o p. m. Very few Of
the beetles will find their way back to
the plants.
It is always well to 60 through the bean
fields before these beetles become abun-
dant for the purpose Of crushing as many
as possible Of the adult insects before
they lay their eggs. II the eggs have
been deposited upon the leaves. they
should also be destroyed. This Is q very
serious enemy to the bean and Il will be
likely to 60 very serious injury to the
crop unless it is attended to promptly
when it first appears in the field.

THREATENED TO SHOO!
BUT LOST HIS NERVE
Two Negroes Fought and One Ran,
But Returned With Gun, and
VIII Now Appear IN Court.

Persons in the vicinity of Copper
avenue and Third street at $3.50
o'clock this morning were startled by
seeing a negro rush up to a number
OF others, single out one and point a
pistol at him and exclaim excitedly
that he would shoot. He didn't, how
ever, but If the police have the right
man he Is in serious trouble.
Witnesses summoned to appear at a
trial, which will be held before Judge
Mcclellan at o'clock this afternoon,
will be called upon to testify that the
negro having the pistol was George
Atkins, a porter employed at the
White Elephant saloon. Atkins was
arrested shortly after the escapade,
but denied the pistol story.
Accordingto persons who saw the
gun play, Atkins had a fight in front
of a pool hall on Third street with a
negro who was getting the best of
him. Atkins broke away from his
antagonist and ran to the e. Gradi
saloon. He came out of the saloon a
moment later with pistol and ran
at his enemy. Pointing the pistol at
the man, Atkins told him few things
he would do, but didn't. Satisfying
himself Atkins took the pistol back
where he got IL. When he returned to
the street a moment later he was set
upon again by the other man and
compelled to run.

that she considered the actual situa-

bombshell in Paris and the greatest
CONSERVATION is manifested in official
circles.
France can see in Germany's action
only an intention to disregard the AL

sition in Morocco for herself. The
consequences of such action On the
part of the kaiser. both from an in
ternational and French standpoint are
expected to be deplorable.
The French press in commenting on
the action of Germany in the position
she has assumed Is unanimous in
considering Germany provocation and
her action possibly productive of the
actual crisis.

GRAND ARMY VETERANS

Soldiers Marched Through
EnCampment City.
CUSTER COMMAND
ATTRACTS NOTICE

Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 2.-The veter
ans of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie today marched through the streets
of the encampment city. The route
of the parade was two miles long.
The procession was reviewed by VIM.
II. Taft, Governor Harris, Senator
Foraker and many other notables.
When marching past the reviewing
stand about IL o'clock, the veterans
were saluted with a bombardment OF
flowers, for which the women of To-
ledo had been preparing some days.
They emerged from the floral shower
to be greeted by an immense human
flag. made up of nearly 5000 chill
dren who in dresses of red. white and
blue swayed their bodies so that the
flag seemed to sway in the breeze.
Tn street was packed with people
so closely that it was almost impos-
sible to move along the sidewalks The
newspapers estimated that there were
about $50, 900 visitors in the city.
The Texans, some forty of whom
were In line. attracted attention by
the seven foot spread OF steers horns
which was carried by Colonel Dex-
ter Wagner.
The men OF Clusters command were
easily distinguished by the streaming
red ties they wore and which attract
ed universal attention. This badge has
been worn since soon after the war.
During one of the first annual en-
campments and reunions Mrs. Eliza
beth Custer, wife OF the general. threw
a long piece Of flannel at her hus-
bands command as 1t was marching
by. The flannel was torn into pieces
and made into red neckties and the
wearing of red ties by the survivors Of
this command has been a feature Of
every encampment since.
William II. Taft and Senator For
aker, meeting for the first time since
the Republican convention, created a
hurricane Of cheers today when they
shook hands in the official reviewing
stands as the G. A. r. parade was
passing.

Twin Sisters Died of Same Malady
Saying Their Prayers TO Old Sol.

Stockton, Sept. with the ship
ment of the remains OF Mrs. Goldie
Turner to her old home near Fresno.
a sad and most peculiar story became
known. The deceased and a twin sis
ter were reared in Mariposa county,
and some years ago married two
brothers named Turner, after which
they located near Fresno.
The women became interested in
sun worship and so great did the re-
ligion appeal to them that suddenly
they were attacked with an acute
mania. They became so violent that
they were sent to a local sanatorium
for treatment, but all that medical
aid could do proved without avail. On
July s Mrs. +. Turner died and Mrs.
Goldie Turner passed away yesterday.
Both women were very beautiful and
extremely popular in their homo
community and in Fresno county.
They were 33 years OF age and
daughters of a prominent family.
Their worship of the sun was con-
tinued up to ~ .ue OF their death
and was -, pitiable to see.

Washington. Sept. 2.-Within q

ton, Ohio, will make his first fight
in the aeroplane which he and hip
brother, Wilbur. have built for the
United States government. The ma
chine is ready to fly. but Mr.. wright
wishes to perfect several minor de-
tails before going into the air.
The machine differs from the one
being used by Wilbur Wright In
France, in that 1t will carry two men
instead of one. The body of the me-
chanical bird consists of two planes
one six feet above the other, measur-
ing forty feet from tip to tip and hav-
ing depth of five feet. These planes
rest on two runners which are six feet
apart.
The seat for the operator is placed
In the center of the lower plane,
where the motor Is also situated. The
latter is the product of the Wright
brothers and Is a four-cylinder. 40
horsepower gasoline engine. The gas0-
line Is pumped directly into the cy-
linders, there being no carburrettors.

of a lever the tips can be turned into

wing moves in the opposite direction
to the one on the opposite side of the
machine, the principle in which the

Another lever controls the twin rud-
ders, which are supported by a brace
at a distance of ten feet from the
rear of the planes. By working the
two levers the equilibrium is main

in front of the operators seat two
planes resembling a box kite, about
six feet wide, are used for controlling
the ascent and descent of the aero
plane.
The aerial flyer alights on the two
runners, or skids, and is started ON

to rush the aeroplane through the air.
They are about nine feet In diameter
and revolve In opposite directions.

available and are searching the wa
ters of Penobscot bay and its shores
and the many islands in the bay for
the bodies of the seven victims OF yes

TRINIDAD FIGHTING
FOR PUBLIC HIGHWAYS

Trinidad, Sept. 1.-Two thousand
one hundred dollars of the sum nee
essary to keep the convicts at work
on the Colorado state highway has
been secured by the committee after
one days work. Most of the big
business houses of the city have
already contributed and the remain
der will be seen as soon as possible.
A big start was given the fund at the
meeting Monday afternoon and with
that as a nucleus the committee be-
gan work bright and early Tuesday.
Everywhere they met with success
out the amount necessary to insure
the continuance of work means that
they must contribute in order to make
the sum reach the 5000 mark. No
where is the work of the committee
being watched with closer interest
than al the road camp. The men are
much concerned over the report that
they viii be taken back to Fremont
county They feel an almost propri-
etary interest in their work and are
endeavoring each day to make
showing over the preceding one. The
work from Morley to the line can be
done by these men much better than
by a force OF men who have not had
the experience gained by the present
force In the past few months.
