THE FIFTH AMERICAN :
IN TRIPOLI IN A YEAR
Frank z. johnson Had Been Told That
1t Was Difficult to Sketch There
ConsuIs Gave Him Much Attention.

In reference to the assault upon her
son, Frank Edward Johnson in Tri-
poll, as told in the message sent by
him from Djerba, Tunis. his mother,
Mrs. E. w. Johnson, says that the
French nation has forced the Arabs to
permit artists to paint in safety in the
French colonies. but TripoH being in
Barba1-y and under the rule of Tur-
key 1T is not as safe for artists there
United States Consul William Coffin,
at TripoH, in Barbary, told MIR. john
son that he was the fifth American
who had attempted to visit in TripoIi
for over a year. Consul Coffin has
been very kind in inviting Mr.. John
son to his house, and so were the
French and German conSuls. Mr.. John
son had met the commissioners now
out there on the boundary question,
who had mentioned the fact that it
was almost impossible to sketch, ow-
ing to the hordes of Soudanese Arabs
and others, but that as a rule they Of
fered no objection. 1t is Thought Mr.
Johnson may have been painting one
of their mosques, which gave offense
and caused the trouble. Mr.. Johnson's
trouble occurred last Wednesday, and
following that it is believed he went
to Djerba. in Tunis, from which place
his message was sent to Paris and

WARNINGS POSTED
ABOUT GYPSY MOTHS.
Placed About the City by Woman's
Guild, Having Been Issued by State
Entomologist.

The Woman's guild, of which Mrs.
Gardiner Greene is president. and Mrs
j. b. shannon, secretary, through its
secretary has posted in a half dozen
issued by W. E. Britton, state ento-
mologist at New Haven giving warn
ing regarding the gypsy moth, a de-
structive pest of adj vegetation. Views
of the egg mass, chrysalis, caterpillar
and moths are shown full-sized
The warning says the caterpillars
devour the foliage of fruit. shade and
forest trees. including coniferous trees.
vegetation are also attacked. Eggs
hatch about May first, and the cater
pillars feed upon the trees until July
When young they descend upon
places by trains. carriages, automobiles
or any passing vehicle. When nearly
mature the caterpillars feed at night,
hide under rubbish during the day
and crawl into holes in the trees. The
adults appear late in July, the male
flying by day and the female resting
on trunks of trees. The eggs are laid
on trees, usually on trunks, or under
side of the larger branches. The eggs
are destroyed by soaking egg masses
with creosote oil. Band trees with
burlap and brush caterpillars found
under the bands in June. Spray the
foliage with arsenate of lead. five
pounds to fifty gallons of water. 1t
is a violation of the law to transport
living specimens. Persons finding egg
masses resembling the gypsy moth are
asked to kill the specimens by drop
ping them into alcohol or gasoline and
send them to the state entomologist for
Identification.
Pamphlets regarding the elm leaf
beetle have also been distributed and
many trees have been sprayed this
spring.
Adult elm leaf beetles winter in bel
fries, attics, and tables, and during
the warm days of March and April
fairly swarm around the windows in
attempting to gain the open air. AT
such times they can easily be destroy
ed by sweeping them UP and burning
them. or by dropping them into a dish
of kerosene.
AS soon as the leaves unfold the bee
ties fly to the trees, eat round holes
through the leaves and during May lay
clusters of small yellow eggs beneath
them. The eggs hatch late in May
and early in juno and the larvae feed
on under surface~-of the leaves, eat
the veins and upper epidermis. Bad
" injured leaves turn brown and fall
late in July.
BY spraying the under sides of the
leaves about June 1 with lead arsenate,
five pounds in fifty gallons of water.
this injury may be prevented
When the brown leaves are falling
late in July the larvae are about grown
and crawl down the trunks Of the
trees and at the base transform to
bright yellow pupae. These can be
killed readily by spraying with kero-
sene emulsion

Tonight and Then to New London

The concluding musical service here
by Joe the Turk was held Monday
evening in an open air meeting on
Bath street and a zonOphone concert
in the Salvation Army headquarters
on the same street. The rain cut short
the open air service and also made
the attendance at the concert not so
large as it would have been other
wise.
Captain Douglass introduced Joe the
Turk at the meeting in headquarters,
then giving the entertainment into
Joe's hands. An enjoyable programme
of sacred songs was given, and an
electrical umbrella in nine colors was
unveiled, a feature which Joe said
was original with himself. It discIos-
ed an electrically lighted goddess of
liberty, making a pretty effect.
Joe the Turk also took opportunity
to proclaim the gospel message, and
Captain Douglass announced that they
would be in Willimantic tonight for

London on Wednesday, and will prob
ably stay there the rest of the week.

be there to receive him if he came,
but. as was expected, he failed to
show up.
That both men were tramps is the
belief of Mr.. Burt, there being many
strangers following the railroad line,
near which Mr.. Burt's house is locat-
ed. The police were looking for the
men Sunday night, Mr.. Burt having
informed them directly after the sec
ond man left, but neither could be
found. That section of the city was
thoroughly secured and four of the

it, was without result 1t is thought
they probably went up the Central
Vermont track after leaving the house
as they were seen to go down the lane
way to the railroad track. Mr.. Burt
said the first man was about six feet
tall and quite slim. He wore dark
clothes. The second man was shorter
