Hibernation Of Mosquitoes.

That cosmopolitan pest, the mosqui-
to, does not necessarily perish with the
coming Of winter. On the contrary,
mosquitoes have been observed to hi
bernate, adult specimens living from
November until the succeeding April
or May with all their powers Of tor
ment unimpaired, although their activ.
ity is suspended IN winter. The mos
quito needs but little food, and 1t Is
the female that thlrsts for blood, the
males contenting themselves with wa.
ter and vegetable fluids. The fact that
mosquitoes are often found upon dry
prairies many miles from water Is as
cribed to the longevity OF the adults Of
certain species which enables them to
survive seasons Of drought. Railroads
have been responsible for the transmits
sion of mosquitoes into regions where
they were previously rare.-Harper's.

Letters of Marque.

Letters of marque and reprisal, as
they were called. were first issued in
the time of Edward I. to give leave to
retallate beyond the marches or limits
Of country for wrongs suffered at
the hands Of a power nominally at
peace. In this first instance they were
aimed at Portugal. About 100 years
later two Hanse towns In Mccklenburg,
wishing to relieve their prince, who
was beleaguered In Stockholm, issued
letters of marque-thieves' letters, as
the sufferers called thcm-to all the
rascals Of the Baltic authorizing them
to victual the besieged city. This done,
they turned themselves into confed,
eracy of sea robbers known as Victual-
ing brothers, or st. Vitalus' brothers,
and rendered the Scandinavian seas
unsafe for half century.

be liberated in the Wallowa county
reserve where the Oregon herd of elk
was recently placed
Bonifsr's feat was not the result of
an attempt to tunt deer out of season
but was in the nature of rescue.
The little animal, yearling doe had
been chased over tho hills by dogs
and had finally waded out into the
waters of Meacham creek for refuge.
Here Bonifer came upon it,. Wheu
the deer espisd the man and horse it
