ThoBe Insects.

To tlie Editor of The Jnnriml.

Your correspondent in his letter from this place Inst week mentioned the ex istence of a colony of "curious insects or worms." It will be seen by the follow ing extract from a letter recently re cently reoeived from L. O. Howard, Assistant Entomologist, U. S. Dep't Agriculture, that they are neither worms or insects. He says: "The creature which you send is common denizen ofSouthern households which occasionally appears as far North as New York City. It is one of the socalled thousand legs of the class Myriopodo, and its scientific name is Scutigeraforceps. It is prednceous in its habits and lives upon" small oockronches nnd house flies. Although it is a disagreeable creature to have around its good traits are generally considered as balancing its unfortunate personal appearance. Its contended by~Bome writers that the creature is poisonous, but I think thut definite proof is lucking, and I have handled them frequently without injurious effects."

A full grown specimen has a striking appearance. It has a body from one to two inches long, covered with eight plates, and has fifteen pairs of legB which increase in length from front to rear, tlie hind ones being as long or longer than the body. It has large reticulatod eyes and its movements are rapid. It is nocturnal in its habits, and as a tly catcher it is a success, but most people prefer Bticky fly paper or even spiders.

It has been observed horo for a few years past, and seems to have become acclimated from the numbers that have been found this season. Tho progenitor of the oolony at this place, most likely, came from the South in a bunch of bananas. It has gained such a foothold thut it would be difficult to exterminate it, considering its nooturnal habits and tlie celority of its movements.

THE BAMQUET AMD DANOE.

The Alumni oftheOity High. School Entertain Their friends Last Evening, Tho High School ulumni have done their part toward making the commencement souson gay, and they have done it woll. Tho banquet and hop conducted by them last evening wero both highly aucccssful and enjoyable. Shortly after 8 o'clock sixty-five couples assembled nt tho ltobbins House and at the sound of music by Montani Brothers orchestra of Indtlinupolis, they gathered around the festive Iward in the beautifully decorated dining room. Unfortunately there were few more people than plates, but this little mistnke was soon fixed up and the exercises began. Before being seated tho alumni and their guests listened to an in vocation by Rev. G. W. Switzer. Miss Maine Spilman, president of the alumni association,made a charming address, Rev. fl. W. Switzer spoko briefly, using ns text tho words of Holmes, "Tho heart never grows old." Miss Maine Oerard recited a little IH)om about the wenther which surely miiBt havo been inspired by just such a siege of ruin as wo have had for the past month, so appropriate was it. "Uarriors Burned Away" was the eniginatical subject of a speech'by Miss Flora Work which proved to lie a witty tirade against Wabash College for not admitting women. She begun with that immortal petition praying tho trustees to adopt PO education signed by Miss l'jlizaletli Bovnlon llarliert nnd Miss Mary H. lvrout years ago, nnd closed with nn eloquent description of hqy the harriers hud at last been burned away when tho central school building went up in smoke. The next lmlf hour wus devoted to putting the various dolicncies out of sight." Among tho guests from out of the city wero Misses Sue Boss and Knto Wiley, Torre Haute Mrs. Dice, Florence, Alabama Mrs. Charles Cable, Cleveland Misses Ruby Reese, Julia Walk and Callie Lee, Indianapolis Jessie Joslin, Clyde, Ohio Mary Ilullowell, Waynetown Blancho IleutLi and Leona Lnufer, Lafayette Nellie Kline, Connersvillo Etta Finch, Logunsport Miss Kennedy, of Liberty, nnd •Harry Boggs, of Terro Haute.

THE DANOE.

By nine o'clock tho purriuges began to roll up in front of tho 1'. O. H^of A. hall and deposit those who intended to take part in the delightful dance which was to follow. Quite a number who did not nttond the banquet were in on the dnnco BO it mny be iningined that the crush was something immense. The dressing rooms wore packed like snrdine boxes nnd fully seventy couples took pnrt in the grund march. Fortunately, however, all of these did not essay to dunce or no dnncing could have taken plnce. As it was the floor was at times uncomfortably crowded und there were some rousing "bumps" which the participants will have cause to remember during the entire commencement festivities. The coBtumes of the Indies were really 6U|erb and from the number of pretty new gowns initiated Inst evening it can be jndged thut fnshionuWo drosBinnking is profitublo business in Crnwfordsville.

wns lost in "the much ufter

shndeB to the grent relief of the casual observer. There were twenty dances on the score but ns it wns nenrly ten o'clock before the dnncing began it was found necessary to eliminnte tho lnncers nnd the polkn in the second half. The eighteen dnnces which were carried out were amply sufficient, however, ns owing to tho oppressive weather nenrly overvono was completely faggod out when the

of tho home waltz

wore struck. The thunder shower which rngod continuously during tho dance had made the hall insufferably warm nnd tho hulls were continually thronged with those promenading up und down. Montnni Brothers, of Indiunupohs, furu ished the mnsio for the occnssion und of course furnished tho best in the shop. Some of their pieces wore quite new,nnd some wero quite old, but all were good and the music was of great nssistunce to the dancers. It was half past one o'clock when the music closed and at that time the rain was descending in sheets. It wns pretty rough on those chnrming costumes as they were bound to get somewhat wot,even in muking the twelve feet between the door and cab and some of the young ladies doubtless fool real sorry this morning.

A. TOWN MEETINt

THE CITIZENS AND OITY 00UN0IL CONFER.

A Strict Enforcement of the Laws Discussed —An Interesting Mcetmir.

Last night wns the regular mooting of tho city council. After tho roll call Mnyor Bandel announced that the regular order of business would be suspended that some citizens who wero present might be heard on a very important subject—the subject of a stricter enforcement of the lnws. A lnrgo number of citizens who do not usually uttend the meetings of the council were present including several of the pnstors of the city churches. The chamber was at once turned into town meeting. Dr. C. L. Thomas was the first spenker. He said he wus present together with other good citizens of the city to confer with the Mnyor, the Mnrshnl, police officers nnd members of the city council in regnrd to bettor enforcement of the luw regulating tho snle of intoxicnting liquors. He was not there for the purpose of mnking temperance speech or to depict nil the horrors resulting from tho trnflic, but to uphold und encourngo tho officers in thoir good beginning to enforce the luw especially 011 Sunday. Ho read from the statute governing tho duties of the Mayor nnd tho Marshal and gave his construction of the luw. His remurks were practical and loft a good impression. Ho wns followed by Dr. It. J. Cunningham who spoko with great eurnestness and much feeling. His groat deeire was that tho officers should do their whole duty fearlessly and with an eye single for the welfare of the whole community and thus save tho boys not only from drunkenness, but from the vice of gumbling nnd from her whose wny takes hold on hell— from the

honBes

of prostitution. Other

remarks were made similar in character by O. M. Gregg, J. C. Barnhill, nnd 13. W. Gerard. Rev. R. S. Inglis spoke plainly in regard the filthy boys und girlB which muke hubit of congregating on his church steps nnd indulging in nil sorts of obscenity nnd vicious practices. The Mnyor and each of the councilinen present expressed themselves in a most emphatic nnd decided manner in favor of enforcing the law. Marshal Brothers said ho wns anxious nnd willing to do his wholo duty. Tho Police Board—Messrs. Vanarsdall, Reynolds and Scott—referred to the obstacles in the way nnd the difficulties the Murshnl and his nssiBtimts hnd to encounter, that the men who were in the habit of violating the luw did it in a systematic way. They hnd their sentinels nnd watchers nnd by some means gnve nn alarm which reached the inside upon tho npprouch of tho officers. They expressed themselves in fnvor of nn ordinnnce removing nil screens during tho inhibited hours of selling, und doing everything thut lny in thoir power to improve public mornlity. The remarks were all mude in good spirit, nud nil seemingly with a common object in view—the improvement of the moral condition of tho city. THE JOURNAL. wonld say in passing that Crnwfordsville is no worse in its morals than nny other town of its size in tho West, thnt it is better thnn most, nnd thut few, very few, ure any better. But in

Buy­

ing this it does not desire to be understood thnt there is no room for improvement. Fur from it. The momentous question of the hour nnd of the dny is how best to govern our cities. When that question in solved sniling will be easy. It is the duty, therefore, of nil good citizens to frequently assemble in such meetings ns the one held last evening nnd discuss und deliborute, take counsel of ench other, and in the most practical wny adopt such methods as will best consorve the interests of nil the people.

An Exoellent Entertainment. Tho Wabash College Gloe Club gave concert nt the Prosbytorinn church Tuesdny evening ton lnrgo und npprocintive nndience. It is by fnr the best college glee club we have ever hnd in Frnnkfort. The solo by Miss Cownn, who is the possessor of wonderfully sweet voice, wns very fine. Ed MNutt made nn nrtistic success with his bnss solo. Eddie Brnndknmp, tho blind pinnist, is a wonderful performer. He played selection from Liszt, thut was the most nrtistic performance we hnve ever heard. The duet by Mihs Cowan and 'Mr. McNutt was well rendered. The "Grasshopper" song, by the club, received a well dosorved encore. We would like to hear them again nnd can promise them pnekod house.—Frankfort Time*.

Looking Toward the Presidency. A part of the committee appointed by the trustees of Wubnsh College to look into the mutter of the choico of a suraesBor for 13r. Tattle held a meeting in this city this morning together with several others of those interested in the college. Nothing definite was done but tho Pennsylvania innn was thoroughly discussed. It is not likely thnt the new president will have been chosen by commencement and it is possible thnt he muy not bo by next full. As one of the trustees romnrkod.
