Catch The Fly Before She Lays. Scientists say the time to kill flies is before they lay eggs. George McKinley, ficting on this theory, has undertaken an early campaign on, the pest. The Missouri College ' of Agriculture explains the efficiency of this method thus : "It Is commonly supposed that the house fly begins layftg eggs as soon as she emerges from her filthy breeding place. If this were true, a fly swatting campaign could not accomplish the desired results, because young larvae would be continually feeding, growing and maturing in the

breeding media of their ancestors who had been swatted after their eggs were laid. "There is, however, a certain lapse of time between the emergnce of the adult fly and the laying of eggs. This period in which the eggs are being formed is called the 'preWpbsitjon' period;! It is the most important time in the swatting campaign, for if the adult flies are killed of trap-, ped before they lay eggs,! all chances of increase from their off-spring are averted. "This period of immaturity is quite short, and consequently the time for killing or trapping the egg-filled mother flies is limited. Concerted efforts in any community can, however, rid that community of flies and disease resulting from flies. Fly trap's must be used constantly in all places where there are the greatest number of flies. Baiting the traps with over-ripe fruit, decaying meat or putrefying fish will instantly attract myriads of germ-laden flies. If the traps are used from early spring to late fall, all flies both egg-filled mother' flies and those that may have laid their eggs will be caught. This will prevent not only annoyance by flies but will control typhoid fever and intestinal diseases. "Destroy the cause and you immediately remove the effect. Early work, before flies becomee numerous, is effective."

Holloway, the editor of the Palladium, David Kilgore of Muncie, and orie or two others were before the convention. Mr. Holloway was nominated on; the third ballot.

New Party Creates Stir. Just at this time the Know Nothing party was making quite a stir in the East as a Native American organization, and it began to reach out to the West. It was & good time for It too, as there was an effort to unite all the elements opposing the policy of the administration in opening up territory dedicated to freedom, and with them the friends of prohibition.1 It was evident -that 'the Whig party was dead, and the entrance Of 'Sam," as the Know Nothings were spoken of emong themselves, "took like wildfire," and it was evident that by a little judicious "political wire pulling" a combination could be formed that would sweep the State at the October election. This necessary "war pulling" was the arranging for a division witlj AntiNebraska Know Nothing Democrats for a share in the division of the spoils of office. : ' ;The Whigs of Wayne county having already nominated a ticket it wu.s put up to Holloway and his friends to secure the withdrawal of all the county candidates, and to submit their claims

to an "Anti-Nebraska" convention to be held in Centerville in August. This was secured with some little difficulty, and Holloway was permitted to remain a candidate by the secret endorsement of the Know Nothings of the district without a public convention." In his canvass he spoke against the repeal of the Missouri compromise, talked prohibition and favored restriction in the naturalization laws. Out-County Man Ran. Among the candidates for county offices were' Abel Evans of Centerville, who had been before the primary on two previous occasions as a candidate for county treasurer. Having received

the endorsement at this time he was somewhat soliciteous about "letting go of a good thing when he had it," but

finally did so on some promises of support in the convention. Henry W. Shuman of Milton, who had been endorsed at the Whig primary as a candidate for the legislature, also yielded with a published card Of withdrawal, in which he cited as a cause the death of the Whig party. William C. Jeffries, a young farmer of the vicinity of Williamsburg, who was the other nominee, withdrew with becoming grace. When the day for the "Anti-Nebraska convention" arrived there was a big delegation went over from Richmond.' James W. Lynde, a business man of prominence of the city,; had early announced his name as a candidate for county treasurer, subject to a Democratic convention. Later he changed the announcement to that as an independent candidate, giving as his reason that he had broken with his party on the slavery question. New Paper is Short-lived. Some months prior to this time a paper claiming to be "independent in politics," but soon aligning itself with the "Anti-Nebraska" people publicly.

and Know Nothingism on the side, had

been started in Centerville by Hosea S. Elliott, late of Dayton, Ohio. On the arrival of the Richmond delegation to attend the convention they were met with an extra of Elliott's paper being distributed over the town and to all comers, evidently being done, at the instance of Abel Evans, stating that a secret convention of the Know Nothing had been held and a full ticket nominated, which had accepted the Whig ticket for county offices; excepting treasurer, the name of Lynde being substituted for that of Evans; that Sol Meredith (Whig) and Judge Charles H. Test (Democrat), both politicians of state reputation, had been named for the legislature in place of Shuman and Jeffries, while Othniel Beeson, the Whig nominee for the state senate

was left on the ticket. This was "letting the cat out of the bag," and created quite a sensation. But the county convention was held, no attention given by it to the publication, but the ticket of the Know Nothings was endorsed, or rather nominated by it. Evans was retired to private life for the balance of his days, and carrjed a "grouch" with him. Elliott's paper suspended in a week or two, and he returned to Ohio. Was there a boycott?
