Now It's the Apple
Leaf Hopper Plague

1t is just one thing after another in
the way of pests that infict the apple
orchard. First it is the San Jose scale,
then borers and the woolly aphis and
now State Zoologist II. A. Surface says
that the reports he is receiving from
people owning orchards are to the
effect that the v~oracious nuisance
known as the apple leaf hopper is
abroad in the land. The hopper takes
its name from its method of locomo-
ton. 1t is a tiny green insect, about
as large and as active as the tiny small
bugs that infest rose bushes. The
hopper is a rare visitor. but a trouble
maker. 1t has been heard from in a
dozen counties.
According to reports, the army
worm has almost disappeared, but tho
web worm is still working in corn
fields.

LOST SAVINGS
OF LIFE TIME

Paris, Ky.-The people of this city
and county who reposed their trust in
George B. Alexander and thereby will
sustain losses aggregating more than
a quarter of a million dollars are
greatly depressed over the failure of
the bank of George B. Alexander & Co..
but they have made no demonstration
against the president of the defunct
institution.
However, they are not taking their
losses uncomplainingly, though practi-
cally all of them are prone to accuse
themselves of overeonfidence in
prince George" as Alexander is called
by many who were his friends. There
are seven directors of the bank, includ-
Hutchcraft, Sr., wealthy farmer and
grain man; E. P. Claybroek, wealthy
farmer; j. W. Bacon, capitalist; John
NJ Brennan, former lawyer, now a
farmer; Wallace w. Mitchell, former
cashier of the bank, now merchant,
and Harry B. Clay, well-to-do farmer.
The banks employees were Owen L.
Davis, cashier, and Joseph Mitchell,
bookkeeper, Mitchell being a brother
in-law of Alexander. The depositors
and other creditors of the bank, which
had capital stock of only $4,000, and
was in the habit of paying 2S per cent
a year dividends upon the stock, the
400 shares of which were quoted at
$3.50 share, numbered approximately
1,00O d.

SAYS HE SHOT WOMAN
Art Student ConfeSses to Shoot
ing Mrs. Flavelle.
italian Youth Says Sight of Well
Dressed Woman on Train Tempted
Him to Make Attack.

Florence, Italy, May 25.--A Floren-
tine art student, Pietro Rossi, was ar
rested here and confessed to being
the man who shot and robbed Mrs.
Mary Flavelle of Chicago, on Thurs
day, while she was on train between
Florence and Assist.
He said:
81 am a student at the Social Sci
ence institute here, and am twenty
almost all the money 1 possessed and
had started on my way home to Monte
PIlciano, in order to inform my fam
lily of my predicament. On the train,
however, l saw an old lady who ap-
parently already had one foot in the
grave and to whom wealth could not
mean much.
The sight of the well dressed wo-
man tempted me, and l attacked her.
I would not have tried to kill her If
she had not screamed when l grasped
her valise. 1 then lost my reason and
fired"
The accused is kept under close
watch.
The condition of Mrs. F1aville had
improved and the doctors stated that
she would probably survive if her con-
stitution was strong enough to enable
her to recuperate from the great loss
of blood caused by the wound.
Chicago, May 25.-The condition of
Mrs. Mary Flaville, Chicago social
worker, shot and robbed on a train in
Italy, is reported as improved in q
cablegram received by DR. Frederick
Noyes, friend of the wounded wo
man.
DR.. Noyes expects to start for Italy
Immediately to look after Mrs. Fla
velle, unless her condition becomes sc
bad as to make his trip futile. He
conferred with the Italian consul IN
Chicago, and sent cablegrams direct
ing that the best mdeical aid be giver
her.

MAY INVESTIGATE
NY. central Lines
Revelation by MeIlen as to New
Haven Road May Cause
Probe Into Others.
ROCKEFELLER MUST TESTIFY
Attorney Folk Declares If Millionaire
Is Well Enough to Attend Direc-
tors Meeting He Can Appear
Before Commerce Body.

Washington, May 25.-Revelations
by Charles S. Mellen as to the finan-
cial practises of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford railroad have
caused the interstate commerce COM
mission to consider an investigation
of other large railroad systems. 1t
was learned here that If the commits
sion decided to thrust its probe into
other systems the New York Central
is likely to be the first to come under
the spotlight of publicity.
Chief Counsel Folk of the commits
sion said:
81 think that an investigation Of
the New York Central would result in
disclosures as great as those made
in connection with the New Haven" )"
Senator Norris of Nebraska, who in
troduced the resolution on which the
New Haven investigation was based,
is considering the introduction of a
similar measure in connection with
the New York Central.
Rockefeller Must Testify.
Neither physicians certificates OF
illness nor any other excuses will be
accepted by Solicitor Folk for the non
appearance of William Rockefeller
and other directors of the New Haven
under subpoena to appear in the COM
missions New Haven investigation,
| Solicitor Folk stated. ''If Mr.. Rookie
feller is able to attend New Haven di-
rectors' meetings, as 1t appears he has
done in the last few days, he is suf'
| ficiently improved in health to appear
in Washington" said Folk.
Under present conditions the chief
counsel said William Rockefeller
George MacCullough Miller, Samuel c
Morehouse and H. NJ Kochersperger
whom Folk described as constituting
the sick list, will have to testify ''ol
suffer the consequences" Folk init
mated that contempt proceeding:
might be instituted. Mr.. Miller's all
senility, and Samuel G. Morehouse
and H NJ Kochersperger are suffer
ing from nervous prostration.
VIII Shake Up Directors.
DeVere H Warner, a New HaveI
director, will be one of the next wit
nesses to be heard. Folk expects tt
gain from him considerable informa
tion about somnolence at directors
meetings. He expects to bring ou
that many directors had so little in
terest in the matters before the boar
that they used the time consumed b.
directors meetings to slip in forty o
more winks.
Folk feels that the directors kneJ
that any protest they might have
made, had they given close attention
to the proceedings, would have bee
useless in view of the fact that Moi
gan and other higher-ups shaped tn
policies usually formulated by the d
rectors.
!, 1t is not unlikely that more may b
heard from Mellen. In the event tha
some of the next witnesses to b
: heard make statements involving hir
in matters concerning which he ha
not testified, he may be recalled.

Glasgow, Scotland, May 25.-M1ll-
tant suffragettes tried to destroy this
city's water supply. Their dynamite
squad" planted two large bombs
among the pipes conveying water from
Loeb Katrine to Glasgow, but the
fuses burned out just before their fire
reached the detonators.
The bombs were imbedded in soft
earth, but were so placed that their
explosion would have shattered the
water-carrying system.
Nearby was found a quantity OF
suffragette literature protesting
against the treatment accorded to
Mrs Emmeline Pankhurst.

Edinburgh, Scotland, May 25.-A

hatchet, dashed through a crowd of
spectators at the art exhibition and
slashed large portrait of King George

identity when locked up.
Though long cash was made in

After thoroughly ransacking the
