New York Jan. 8—South American lightning bugs are to be used to put the Standard Oil Company out of business. W. F. Doll of Liberty, X. Y., who has arrived from Bogota on the steamship Columbia, says the natives in South America have eolved the problem. They are using these flre-flies to illuminate their homes, and at the festivals in the Andes mountains, the natives wear the bugs on their coats, thus furnishing sufficient illumination to make them entirely independent of
the oil trust.
“1 have brought a supply of these lightning bugs with,” said Mr. Doll, “and it is my purpose to establish a farm at Liberty, X. Y., that will do more to break Mr. Rockefeller’s combine than all of the 129,000.000 fines that can be imposed by the federal judges. Why. just think what it means! Every housewife can purchase a pair of these fireflies and by adopting tlie scheme that has been introduced by the South Americans it will not be necessary to buy kerosene. It is very simple. Half a dozen bugs will light an average sized room, and they will furnish a light that is clearer and brighter than that given by a musty old oil lamp.” The bugs which Mr. Doll displayed are six or eight times the size of the lightning bugs tiiat is found in
this country.
Mr. Doll, who formerly was head of the Doll Manufacturing Company of 175 Brodway, manufacturers of watches, is now building a railroad from Rio Cha, Columbia, to the coal mines 5n miles in the Interior.
