Mosquitoes And Flies.

The approach Of warm weather
arouses every careful housewife to the
reflection that the disgustingly in
auisitiye and unafraid house fly will
soon be with her again if she doesn't t
watch out. And the saddest part of
the reflection is that. no matter how
careful she may be in guarding her
own premises, some neglectful neighbor
may stock her up with successive
swarms. The mosquito arrives little
later than the house fly. but breeds
and multiplies quite as industriously
wherever the conditions are favorable.
1t is now generally understood that
both the mosquito and the common fly
can be almost, if not quite, suppressed
by the adoption of cooperative and
universally applied methods of preven-
ton. Both pests can be suppressed by
careful treatment of breeding places.
Each is an egg-laying insect, the
mosquito nesting in pools and standing
water and the fly in any decaying
animal or vegetable substance. A
dead mouse or an offcast fish head al
lowed to putrefy in some uninspect-
ed corner of the back yard will hatch a
swarm of flies. A neglected tomato
can filled with water is a firstclass
mosquito incubator. r.-Baltimore Amer

MANY GOING TO CIRCUS.

The Barnum and Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth is the powerful magnet
that will draw thousands of people

Frenchman, dives from the top of the
arena to the ground, lighting on his
bare chest. Charlie the First, Chin
panzee, presents a greater bicycle and
acrobatic act than any man ever achiev-
ed. A company of fifty clowns creates
incessant laughter. A member of the
Siegrist- -Sibon family of aerialists.
blindfolds his eyes and leaps across the
entire width of the arena, turns a
double somersault on the way and
caCcneS Cnc WrlSCS OI COulTduc WHO
hangs head down from flying swing.
The Abreu family of Mexican gymnasts
introduce great novelty act. Berzac's
horses present an amusing play, the
scene of which is laid in country inn.
One horse plays landlord and another
is the town constable. The other
horses make very amusing boarders.
Paula Peters monkey and dog circus
holds the attention of the audience
for half an hour. A mastiff villain
sets fire to the hero's cottage. The
dog fire department responds. The
captain climbs a ladder and rescues
Miss Poodle and an ape detective puts
the william in a cell. Other notables
are the Konyot family of riders, the
La Faille family of worlds strongest
men. Winston's equestraian seals, the
Dollar family of acrobats, and Victoria
Codona, the greatest high-wire artist
in the world.
In the menagerie are to be found
l 200 rare wild animals. Among them
is Bumbeeno, the only giraffe ever
born or exhibited il America. 1t is but
three feet high and worth its weight in
gold. There are forty elephants, 700

geous affair ever offered by a circus.

"7 Come 1

The night was dark and dreary,
the new o had just gone down
in the west, and peace and plenty
seemed to prevail in our city as it
was pay day, and Saturday night.
Just about this time a telephone
call came to the office of Constable
Martin LEM and City Marshal But. 8
notifying them of a mysterious
gathering in northwest Slater.
It was known that the mans wife
was away from home where the
men were gathering, and it didn't
take the officials long to learn that
the injecting meant a scrap" game.
For some time they watched the
boys as they "rattled the bones"
and called "seven come eleven"
The performance finally grew
monotonous to the officers and they
went to the doors OF the room
where the game was going on Butts
went to the front door and LEM to
the rear. When Butts tapped on
the front door there was general
confusion within and a rush made
for the e a door, where exit was
denied by the constable, Seeing
no other way OF escape four of the
number gave up, while the fifth
made his escape for the time by
| going through a window.
They were brought to the mayors
office where they gave bond fol-
their appearance next morning
Four of them were fined $500 each
and cost and the other, in whose
residence the game was conducted
was fined $4,000 and cost.-Slatel
