A Report from the State Entomologist on an - Insect That Threatens Wheat and Oats. Springfield. June 21. The State Board of Agriculture has a communication from State Entomologist Forbes concerning a minute bluish-green, oval, rather sluggish insect, found within a lew days in. 6uch abundauco on the heads and leaves of wheat and oats, from the Ohio river to Madison and Champaign counties, as to create great alarm in tho Illinois wheat belt. Ho says its amazing abundance seems duo to the drought of recent years, and of the early spring this year, its enormous rate of multiplication enabling it to take a rapid advantage of circumstances favorable to it3 increase. The amount of injury, he ways, depends largely upon the weather, and cannot be predicted. This plant-louse attacks so suddenly aud in such overwhelming numbers vvhen it gets a fair start that nothing can bo done but trust to tho weather and its natural enemies. The insect is susceptible to immente destruction by parasites. All seasonable rains check its mischief by their unfavorable influence on the louse, and by i nabling grain to Hunport tho loss of sap on which it feeds. " It damages only crop plants of the grass family, including wheat, barley, oats, rye, blue-grass, fox-tail, and the like. It is an old-world species (dipho-nophora-aven;e), commonly known as grainplant louse, and infested tho grain of Europe for over one hundred years. It was found in Illinois in lwi, again in 1870 aud 17j, since which time it has not been reported as specially injurious. The Hoodlums Annual, Special to the Iurtlanapolls Journal. Marshall, June 21.

The rioters then invaded the residence of the director of the mines, and pitched the furniture out of the windows. Some of the occupants were driven from the house, while the others barricaded themselves in a bed-room. The rioters, finding it impossible to break down the barricade, set fire to the house and departed. The occupants of tho bed-room narrowly escaped with their lives. From tho director's residence the mob proceeded to the house of the mayor, which they treated in a similar manner. 'Every shop in the town is closed, and the inhabitants are panic-stricken. EQUAL BEFORE THE LAW. Lord Coleridge Decides that the Duke of Cambridge Is an Ordinary Citizen. London", June 21.

In his decision the Lord Chief-justice says that it is of the highest importance that the public should at all times rest satisfied that all subjects are equal before tho law. To preserve this confidence the law must be no respecter of persons. . , GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. No Grounds for Complaints that Socialists Are Allowed Too Much Freedom in Switzerland. Beune, Jnne21.

The Czar of Russia refuses to permit tho young Prince Philip of Hohenlohe to accept his portion of the estate of his deceased uncle, Prince Wittgenztein. This decision of the Czar causes intense irritation in Berlin, for although Prince Philip has become a Russian by naturalization, he is the son of Prince Hohenlohe, the German Governor of Alsace-Lorraine, and the Czar's action is felt to be a blow aimed at Germany and tho Germans, the more especially as the claim of the young Prince was vigorously supported by Prince Bismarck. Mgr. Persicos L.lfe Threatened. London, June 21. The Pall Mall Gazette asserts that Mgr.

lion. Thomas M. Browne Says It Is a Cumbersome Piece of Political Patchwork. Washington Press. The feeling against the civil-service law seems to be growing in intensity every day, and many prominent members of the Republican parti' are by no means backward in giving very decided expressions of opinion contrary to it. Many Senators and Representatives are very outspoken in their condemnation of the Chinese system, aud do not hesitate to characterize the experiment as a total failure. Among these is Kepresentativo Thomas M. Browne, of Indiana, who has given the operation of the civil-service law a great deal of close study, lu the course of a conversation with a Press representative yesterday afternoon, he said: "All government employes should be classified and equitably distributed among the States. Such officers as are to enforce the political policy of the administration 6hould be in sympathy with it, and be chosen without being subject to any test examinations; and orficers -holding confidential relations with heads of departments should be designated by them, as they are responsible for their conduct.. But there is a class of employes whose duties are purely ministerial, and who sbopld be chosen simply because of their fitness. As thoso who sympathize with the party out of power share the burdens and assume the responsibilities of citizenship equally with those who belong to tho party in power, these latter places should te equitably distributed between the two." "But how is the question of merit and fitness to be determined!" asked the reporter. - "Those most fit for place will never apply for it. Tho best material will never be utilized by the government, and all that can "be done is to secure for the people a thoroughly competent and faithful public service. The selection should be made in a practicable way. Mv opinion is that a certain proportion of those places should be cssigned to the State at large, and the residue to tho several congressional districts. When a vacancy occurs the Senator or Representative representing tho State or district to which it belongs should nominate a person to be appointed, as in the case of appointing a cadet to the naval or military academy. The candidate should be subjected to a standard examination in the department to which he is to be assigned, touching his fitness to discharge the duties of that particular place. It he passes the required examination he should receive a probationary commission; and if at the end of six months he prove himself competent and elticient ho should be commissioned for four or six yean and wade eligible for reappointment; but an age should be fixed when his service should absolutely cease. Lite terms ought not to be given; but a period of service should certainly be fixed. Official terms should be so arranged as to give tho v largest number of citizens, consistently with the good of the 'service, an opportunity to enter uponpublio employments. "This plan will distribute those offices equitably among all sections and all political parties, and will give tho government ns good a service as any plan that can be devised. Putting the distribution of places under fixed rules will relieve tho heads of departments and the members of Congress from the constant importunities of the multitude of office-seekers by which they are at present embarrassed." "I presume, then, that you are entirely opposed to the present civil-service lawf" "Yes. There are many reasons why the Civil-service Commission ought to be abolished. It is expensive. Its sj'steni induces multitudes to undergo the expense and trouble of an examination, who, although pluced upon the eligible list, can never secure an appointment. An approved candidate goes otf the list in a year, and if he seeks a place after the lapse of that time must be re-examined. In its examinations it applies wholly unnecessary tests, and ignores all elements of personal fitness, except that of the ability of the candidate to cire correct answers to the formulated .questions. It proceeds upon the mistaken theory that the one most familiar with book learning will make the most efficient puhiic servant. Public officers have evaded, and alwavs will evade, f the rulo that forbids a selection for partisan reasons. It is a cumbersome piece of political patchwork. It goes through a meaningless form of examining thousands when but tens are required for places. The law puts it in tho power of tho President to define the classes subject to its rules, and upon a change of administration it is easy for him to tie the hands of his successor by putting all of his appointees under their protection. 'The law should define precisely the classes who are to be subject to civil-service examinations if that system is to be continned. While the best people believe in an intelligent non-partisau civil service, they are rapidly becoming disgusted with the present system, and the time is not distant when they will demand its repeal and the substitution of some practicable method. Until it is repealed, however, the President should strictly enforce it." Ilary and Indefinite All Around Kansas City JournaL The Atlanta Constitution remarks that the base-ball outlook is "hazy and indefinite." We, of course, are not fully acquainted with the base-ball situation in Atlanta, but we violate no confidence when we say that it is exceedingly indefinite up here just now thsit is. in reference to tho time when our club will take another game.

The Safest AXD xno3t powerful alterative Is Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Young and old are alike benefited by its use. Por tho eruptive diseases peculiar to children nothing else is so effective 03 this medicine, while its agreeable flavor makes it easy to administer. "My little boy riad large scrofulous ulcers on his neck and throat from which he suffered terribly. Two physicians attended him, but he grew continually worse under their care, and everybody expected ho would die. I had heard of the remarkable cures effected by Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and decided to have my boy try it. Shortly after lie began to take this medicine, the ulcers commenced healing, and , after using several bottles, he was entirely cured. He is now as healthy and strong as any boy of his age." William F. Dougherty, Hampton, Va. "In May last, mv youngest child, fourteen months old, began to have sores father on its head ana body. We applied various simple remedies without avail. The sores increased in number and discharged copiously. A physician was called, but the sores continued to multiply nutil in a few months they nearly covered the child's head and body. At last we legan the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. In a few days a marked change for the better was manifest. The sores assumed a more healthy condition, the discbarges were gradually diminished, and finally ceased altogether. The child is livelier, its skin is fresher, and its appetite better than we have observed for months." Frank M. Griffin, Long Toiut, Texas.
