LIST TELLS HOW
To KILL INSECTS
ON GARDEN VINES
fBy GEO. NJ. LIST. |

On August 4 | published a short
notice in The Daily Sentinel in re-
gard to the small insects that are
infesting the woodbine vines of the
city. Many inquiries have come to
both myself and The Sentinel con-
cerning this pest and the remedy for
same. and have been asked to pub
lish something in regard to their
treatment again.
In work that has been done in the
past few days the tobacco prepara-
tion known as Black Leaf 40 has
proven entirely satisfactory where
the spraying has been thorough. This
can be obtained from the fruit grow
ers' associations or anyone handling
spray materials. Use one part of this
to 600 parts of water and spray the
vines until you are sure that both the
top and under sides of the leaves are
wet. 1t is very essential that the
under sides of the leaves be thor
oughly drenched as it Is here that
most of the small green hoppers are
feeding, and they cannot be killed
unless the material strikes them. the
insects that have developed wings and
are flying may not all be killed, but
these will do but little damage as
they are about through feeding when
they reach this stage OF development.
1t Is important that all leaves and
rubbish about the vines be destroyed
this fall as it is here that the little
hoppers winter over. and much can
be done toward controlling them in
the next season by this precautfon.

San Francisco, Aug. 15.-Back and
forth Lola Norris was led today over
the testimony that she and Marsha
Warrington had already given in the
governments case against Maury /.
Diggs. charged with violating the
white slave act. Federal Judge Van
Fleet repeatedly warned Attorney
Devlin of the defense that his pursuit
OF ''infinitessimal matters not rela-
tive to the material issues of the case
is consuming time which you may
find valuable later on"
There was glimpse into the psy-
chology of the story when this we'll
hammered girl OF apparent refine
ment tod how she had permitted
herself TO be SO much ia the COM
pany of a married man. She said
that Drew Caminetti WAS known to
her parents as Mr.. Whitman, and
Diggs as Mr.. Fisher. Asked why she
deceived her parents, she replied:
81 knew il was wrong for me to
SO with either; but did not consider
1t positively wrong for me to go with
Caminetti because the time he would
spend with me | knew he would not
spend with his wife anyway"

testified that she had met Diggs in
the office OF .Attorney Charles 5. Har-

her that everything Diggs would be
convicted of Marsha would be con-
yicted Of They told me that. II
Marsha would only remember about
che bungalow at Reno and what
Diggs told her. both would be saved.
AS to the berths, they said the only
thing Marsha could say was that she
did not know who paid for them"
The witness said she liked Marsha
and carried this message to her be-
cause she wanted to help her. She
testified that Marsha told her 1t WAS
too late; that she thought more OF
her parents than anybody. and would
not do 1t.
The attorneys for the defense were
surprised at the sudden ending of the
government case, but refused to dis
cuss their plans.

said held the rock he feared and
having him helpless, he struck him
a cowardly blow" said City Attorney
Henry Tupper in a bitter denuncia-
ton of Joe Dalphin, who was tried
in police court yesterday afternoon
for assaulting the Mexican laborer.
He is a great big coward, white
man living with a black woman and

whose room he was found during the
evening, and had been asked by her
to keep the Mexican away from her.
He offered to get proof that he had
worked in mine at Telluride within
six weeks and said that he feared the
thickness of the Mexican, who had
the rock in his hand with the other
had free. and struck him with the gun
when he says he ought to have shot
Mayor Todd calmly informed the
prisoner that he considered 1t clear
case of assault aggravated by an un-
Unstable infringement of the local op-
ton laws and fined him the limit
800 and costs amounting to $ll6.6O
Dalphin languishes in jail yet, wait

DARING STEAL

Entered Through Window and
Found Combination in Draw

MCElROY WAS OUT AT LUNCH

wv HAT is probably the most
w daring daring robbery yin. in local .i
shortly after twelve O'Clock to-
day when unknown men entered

Irrigation company, unlocked
the huge vault safe and took
$o7.4O, the contents of the cash
drawer. The thieves not only
made good their escape, but they
but they left behind absolutely
10 clue To their identity.
When Benjamin NJ. MacElroy. who
is In charge of the offices while Sec
retary A. o. Peery Is on his vacation
in the northwest. went home to his
luncheon, he left all the doors locked
and the safe bolted as usual. On the
south side of the building. however,
q small window opening into tho law
atory was left open but the screen
was unlocked. The yeggmen punch
ed hole in the screen and with some
sort of bent instrument unlocked the
screen and entered the room. II was
easy then to locate the big safe, but
unlocking 1t would have been a more
difficult problem had it not been for
their remarkable good fortune.
Used Combination.
In searching the drawers of the
big office desk the thievers found
written in the back of an old check
book the numerals which constituted
the combination 10 rthe safe. This
memorandum was left by Alr. Peery
fl Mr.. MacElroy and unless the rob-
bers had knowledge of safe locks 1t
would have been impossible to use
the information contained in the COM
plicated figures. However, use II
they did for when Mr. GacElroy re-
turned at 1870 this afternoon the big
safe was unlocked, the cash drawer
was empty and the memorandum
marked cheekbook was lying on a
desk top. Escape was made through
the rear door which was equipped
with an inside lock.
The whole proceeding was 30 ex-
ssperatingly simple and bold that the
officers have been quite taken off
their feet and. have absolutely no
clues with which to work.
No effort was made to disturb any
checks. cash items or other papers in
TIE safe, the thieves probably work
ing as quickly and Systematically as
possible.
1t is believed that one or both of
the mentor the police think that
two must have been concerned-were
safe experts and were able to put to
immediate use the combination cy-
pher.
The robbery surpasses in boldness
the theft of a considerable sum from
the safe of Chas. B. Rich more than

Wv YASHINGToN, Aug. 15.-The

" the problem OF determining

Under the Dick law. a requisition

question may come up in connection

hold up all the requisitions from
