HEAVY PENALTIES FOR
STREET CAR RIOTERS
Jerry Brown Fined $3.50 for Part
in Cutting Affray-Partner
Held for Grand Jury.

William Stokes. colored. charged with
assault with dangerous weapon. today
was held by Judge Aukam, in Police
Court. to await the action of the grand
jury, and bond was fixed at 81, 900. Jerry
Brown. also colored, was fined $3.50 on
a charge of simple assault Both men
pleaded guilty to the charges against
them.
Stokes and Brown were arrested in
connection with the ARRAY on a awest-bound
street car of the City and Suburban line
on Rhode Island avenue northeast the
nis.. of July {. The specific charges
against them were made by Burrel and
Roy B. Hanback,, white brothers, who re-
ceived painful stabs from a knife which
they charged was welded by Stokes
The two Hanbacks identified Stokes as
the man who used the knife.
Evidence Of Browns connection with
the cutting was insufficient, in view OF
Judge Aukam. to hold the colored man.
and the charge was nolled. A new
charge of simple assault was substf-
tuted, to which Brown entered a plea OF
guilty, whereupon the Northumberland
ffrty-dollar fine was assessed.
The fight which resulted in the stabblnG
of the two Hanbacks and the arrest OF
the colored men occurred when the con-
ductor of the street car ordered several
colored passengers on the car to make
less noise. An alteration followed. in
which the conductor was getting the
worst of 1t, when the two Hanbacks. with
other white passengers. came to his as
sistance. During the ensuing melee Stokes
and Brown figured as knife wielders. il
was charged. the two being arrested later.
Injuries to the two Hanbacks were
serious enough to make treatment at Cas-
ualty Hospital necessary.

SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUSTS.
That Are Making a Feast for Tur-
keys and Chickens.

From the Philadelphia Press.
The seventeen-year locust in one re-
spect the most remarkable of insects, is
reported to have made his temperance
in West Virginia. Ohio and western
Pennsylvania. He is five years ahead Of
time in these parts If he be of the same
generation that last visited Pennsylva-
MIA in 1902. There are, however, differ
ent broods of these locusts or cicada, and
though each brood lives seventeen years
in the ground in the larval state after
emerging from the egg, yet almost any
year may bring seventeen-year locusts to
the surface In some section or another
This so-called seventeen-year locust as
a matter of fact is not locust at ali
1t is among the largest of the song-mak-
ing insects, properly speaking, but one
of the best known species of the
homopterous division of the Hemiptera.
His scientific name is Cicada septemde-
elm, to distinguish him from those of his
relatives who do not disappear from the
face of the earth for quite such long
periods, though in nearly all other re-
spects their habits and customs are very
much alike. Cicadas, which so far as
known live longer than any other insect,
all deposit their eggs in the branches OF
trees. and upon Matching the young fall
to the ground. burrow below the sur
face and spend a prolonged Subterranean
larval existence feeding upon the roots
of vegetation. Shortly after their reap
pearance at the surface they emerge into
the perfect insect and the process of re-
production begins ali over again.
So far as Is known the seventeen-year
locust never did anybody any harm. 1t
commits no such ravages and devastation
as distinguish the locust properly So
called, whose swarms work such havoc
on vegetation in the near east. Upon his

The South Downs.
From the London Chronicle


Worthing, whose new pier was opened
recently. like it's big sister Brighton,
prospered under the smiles Of royalty.
In the closing years of the eighteenth
century the Princess Amelia went there
on her doctors advice. to be followed by
the Princess Charlotte and Queen Caro-
line. In 1S47. Queen Adelaide took up her
abode at Worthing for considerable
period, and the resultant royal puff
did much to advance the fortunes of the
town. Something of Workings pros
perity is due to it's equable climate. shell
tered as the town is by the South Downs.
Wrote the author of Lorna Doone' !:
Spring wakes early here. The
children of the southern slopes of the
South Downs, toward Worthing and
West Tarring make their cowslip balls
and pluck their bluebells long before
their northern cousins see even the first
gimpses of potentilla and dead nettle :"
Which is why. perhaps. Worthing is pop
ular with big families.

The Lasting Powers of Thoreau


Lately I saw a newspaper item about
one Of the $1,000 literary pilgrims who
are said to visit Concord annually Call
ing upon Mr.. Sanborn. he asked him
which Of the Concord authors he thought
would last longest. The answer, some
what to his surprise. was "Thoreau., I
do not know whether this report is au-
thentic; but supposing it true, it is not
inexplicable. L will confess that of
recent years find myself read
ing Thoreau more and Emerson
less. Walden" seems to be more of
sons was incomparably the larger ma
ture. the more liberal and gracious soul.
His. too. was the seminal mind; though
Lowell was unfair to the disciple. when
fertil!zed by the Emersonian pollen. For
Thoreau had an originality of his own
a flavor as individual as the tang of the
bog cranberry. Or the wild apples which
he loved. One secure advantage he pos
sesses Is the concreteness of his subject
matter. The master. with his abstra ct
habit of mind and his view of the merely
phenomenal character Of the objects of
sense. took up somewhat incurious at
| titude toward details. not thinking ii
ically the universal tablet" The disci-
pie. though he professed that the other
world was all his art. had a sharp eye
for this. Emerson was natures lover
but Thoreau was her scholar. Emerson $
method was intuition, while Thoreau s
was observation. He worked harder than
Emerson. and knew more-that is. within
certain defined limits. Thus he read the
Greek poets in the original. Emerson. in

CARRIER PIGEONS.
Rapid Flight Discloses Marvellous
Homing Instinct.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
The establishment of a private mes
senger service with carrier pigeons be-
tween New York and Philadelphia, after
a trial in which the round trip was made
in ten minutes less than three hours
shows that though such a service natu-
rally cannot hope to rival wireless teleg-
raphy, it will for a long time to come far
surpass the rapidity of transmission by
railway mail

hours and fifty minutes, counting the
stops. is performance of which no air.
man need be ashamed. 1t is more than
sixty miles an hour-about the rate of
Roland Garros when he flew across the
Mediterranean last september. o5S miles
at sixty-eight miles an hour.
The speed at which the birds can fly
depends largely upon the condition OF
the atmosphere. In the MontartiS-BruS-
sells race of 1876 in good weather the
winning birds Travelled 27U miles in three
hours and a quarter; the next Year it
was stormy. and the first bird did not get
home till thirty hours had elapsed.
The Greeks of old sent the names OF
winners in the Olympic games 10 their
cities by the carrier pigeons that were

Dutch government century ago USED
them between Sumatra and Java. They

the pigeons We're equipped with bells and
whistles to frighten away the winged
foes only too ready to pounce down upon
them.
The British admiralty. with the devel-
opment of wireless telegraphy, has abol-
ished the pigeon service, after bringing
it to a high degree of efficiency, but the
aerial envoys still are kept in the lofts
of huge fortresses in Russia, Germany
and France.
The training of the homer begins IN
warm weather when the bird is about
four months old. The practice distances
are gradually increased until the bird
is able to find its way home when lib

by the end of the first season. The full
distance is not attained until several
seasons later. The birds should not be
sent on long journeys oftener than once

height first of all. in rapid spiral; then
suddenly they start off like an arrow
from a bow in the right direction. The
American distance record is 1,O04 miles.

JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
STRIKES ANOTHER SNAG
Completion of the Clayton Anti
Trust Bill Is Not Expected
Today.

The Senate judiciary committee today
struck another snag in its consideration
of the Clayton antitrust bill and after
two hours debate in the committee room
over section 8 of the bill. relating to hold
ing companies. without reaching any con-
clusion. Senators spoke pessimistically OF
completing the bill today.
This section had been agreed to yes
terday in committee. but it was reopened
today.
Attacks Trade Commission Bill.
During the debate on the Newlands
trade commission bill in the Senate yes
terday afternoon, Senator Brandegee OF
Connecticut attacked that measure in
scathing terms. He said that the pro-
posed legislation was half baked and
that the country was afraid to try to find
out anything about it.
Business men who go to the White
House anu give out prosperity interviews
in exchange for free lunch do not un-
derstand what a dose is to be admins
tered TO them in this trade commission.
declared the Connecticut senator If the
country knew what is coming there would
be a panic. This. commission provides
for a lot of government snoopers, spot
ters and spies. charged with power to
make nothing but list of don'ts 1t is
not fair for Congress to set up such a
commission, which passes on business as
fair or unfair, but does not guarantee
the business man against assaults from
the Department of Justice when he pro-
ceeds with the sanction of the trade COM
mission
