WHEN BUTTERFLIES MIGRATE,

Everybody knows the great orange. red butterflies with blood black bands and white dots that come sailing along by the thousands in the autumn But it is not everybody who knows that they migrate like the birds in the fall. lying all the way from Canada to Cuba and taking other long flights so that they get into the sunny south for the winter. They have extraordinary pow, CT on the wing and have been seen fly ing at sea 800 miles from land.
 Vast flOcks of hundreds of thousands on their way southward settle on trees and bushes like a swarm of bees, says St. Nicholas. and as they are pretty much the color of certain autOumn foli- age you might easily pass their roost- ing place without noticing them. They rest for the night and are off in the morning as soon as their wings are dry. With all the enemies of insect life one wonders that there are SO many butterflies left at the end of the sum mer. But though our Monarch is ap- parently fat, tempting morsel he is 'distasteful to birds.

She was found sometime before noon on Monday or about forty hours after she got lost. Presumably she had had noth- ing to eat though it is likely she found plenty of water in the gulches and then, too, it has been raining little in that region almost every day.

THE DISCOVERED WILL
 ~T s-E 0F LATE 4. HUNSAKER
HnHs1
Though Lacking In FormaIity It Is
 Good.

When A. Hunsaker. late member of the board of supervisors, died sud denly last June, it was supposed that he had left no will, though it was generally known by those who had been in conversation with him re- gently or within a year or two that it was his desire to leave all of his property to his wife At the time of his death he was engaged in arrang- ing his affairs and was in the act of executing deeds by which the prop erty would have been conveyed to her But none of the deeds were completed.
 A few days ago there was found among his papers a photographic will, one of the most curious on record. It was written on the identification page" with which some memorandum books are provided to be used by travellers so that their identity and the place of residence of their rela- tives may be known in case of sud den death or accident.
 The blank page had been filled out properly and there were inter lined the words: In case of my death.-4 give all my property to my wife. Melissa Hunsaker. A Hun saker" That was the will.
 When it was presented. Judge Phi lips was not certain whether it could be admitted to probate. but Mrs. Hunsaker, at the request of the court, secured legal advice and Walter Bennett gave it as his opinion that the words were testamentary and that the will was a good one.
 Thereupon, supported by the affi- davits of O. L. Stapley and Don C. Babbitt, the will was admitted. | Messrs. Stapley and Babbitt said that 1 there was no doubt that the writ | ing was that of Mir. Hunsaker and | that at the time of the writing, Aug | ust 18th. he was of strong mind | This will was made, by the way | while MT Hunsaker, who was then Tn ill health, was in the mountains.
 There was no disposition by any member of the family to oppose the admission of the will The only ques- ton was whether it was such dOcu- ment as could be probated.

toned their given names as every body knew who was meant. and MT Hlrst did not think to inquire--their last names. He knew the girls by sight merely from their attention 10 his family in the dining room and on leaving the hotel asked a party living at the canyon to write and tell him the result of the search for them
 The fact that the Indian found this girl so far away from the starting point indicates that the people at the canyon must be an energetic lot and that the Indian trailers pressed into service certainly know their busi- ness and the girls having been safely restored will have a real adventure to talk about but one they probably would not want to repeat
