It is a standing puzzle to the ento- ' Biologists how frail little insects like . the mosquito and the butterfly can stand the cold of an arctic winter and come out unharmed. The larvae of the milkweed butterfly have been exposed to an artificial blast 68 degrees below zero. Taken out of range of this artificial blizzard and gradually “thawed out,” this same worm was able to creep in less than half an hour afterward. Butterflies have been found flitting joyously about in the highest latitude man has ever penetrated, and the mosquitoes of Alaska and Greenland are known to be the healthiest specimens of that race of little pests.

August Weather. My last bulletin gave forecasts of the fitorm waves to cross the continent from 15th to 19th and 21st to 25th. The next will reach the Pacific coast about the 26th, cross the western mountains by the close of the 27th, the great central ; valley from 28th to 30th and the Eastern I States about the 31st. This storm will ! be at its greatest force on the Pacific coast about the 26th, while the one pre- | ceding it will also be at its greatest force on tne Atlantic coast. A wave of cooler and more agreeable weather may be expected to cross the western mountains about the 29th, the great central valleys from 30th to Sept. ! 1, and the Eastern States about Sept. 2. The last week in August will break the drouth in many places, and may be considered as the turning point from which the rainfall of the United States will begin to be more evenly and nor. mally distributed. .Local Forecasts.

CROP OUTLOOK. The Condition of the Spring Wheat Fair— Corn Generally Good. Reports have been received from alternate counties in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, lowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas, on the condition bf corn, oats and spring wheat, and are given in the Farmers’ Review of this week as follows: _ Corn is generally good in Kentucky, Nebraska, Dakota and Minnesota. In Illinois only 12 per cent, report the condition as good; 54 per cent, report fair, and the others poor. In Indiana 15 per cent, report pood: 50 per cent, fair, and tne rest poor. The condition m similar to that in Indiana. In Michigan 25 per cent, of the correspondents report good; 40 per cent fair, the rest poor. In Missouri the corn is in good condition, with little exception. In Kansas the condition is generally fair, 85 per cent, reporting the condition fair to good, and ab mt the same condition prevails in Wisconsin. Spring wheat is fair to good in all States except lowa and Wiscoifsin, where quite a number of counties report fair to poor. Oats are quite generally good in Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Kentucky. In Illinois 40 per cent, of the correspondents report this crop as average or above; 30 per cent, report fair and a like number poor. In Indiana 40 per cent, report good; 25 per cent, fair, and the others poor. In Ohio 55 per cent, report good; 35 per cent, report report fair; the rest poor.

The architects of the world are to be invited to a congress during the Fair. The Government of Mexico will exhibit at the World’s Fair a large and . valuable collection of Aztec relics. The women of New York State will 1 furnish and decorate the library room in j the Woman’s building at the Fair. The largest American flag ever made j will float from the ton of a very lofty । “liberty pole” in front of the Administration Building. Canada will erect a "World’s Fair Building at Chicago 100 feet long by 44 feet wide, with a ten-foot veranda surrounding it on all sides. Sousa’s band—the one he is now organizing for Chicago—will be a promin nt participant in the World’s Fair i dedication exercises next Oct >ber. Ths World’s Fair Commission of the State of New York has applied for 1,250 square feet of space for the exhibition of a great relief map of the canal system of that State. William T. Harris, Commissioner of Education of the United States, wll have charge of the educational congresses to be held in Chicago at the time of the Fair. The California State World’s Fair Board has given permission to Miss Ray Beveridge, of San Francisco, to set up and operate a miniature blacksmith’s forge in the California building. Miss Beveridge is a niece of ex-Gov. John L. Beveridge, of Illinois, and is said to be an expert at the anvil. Wisconsin, through its World’s Fair Board, has asked that May 29, 1893, be designated as “Wisconsin day” at the Exposition. That date is the forty-fifth anniversary of the admission of that State Into the Union. Michigan is one of the most enthusiastic of the States in the ’ reparation of its World Fair exhibit. The State’s । appropriation is SIOO,OOO, but it is au- ■ thoritatively announced, that the total 1 sum contributed towards making an exhibit by the State, counties, cities and ’ private individuals will reach fully $500,000.

THE NEW PARLIAMENT. Borne of the More Noted Faces to Bo Been Therein. The new Parliament met In London Thursday afternoon. The session was altogether formal. Speaker Peel waa re-elected and Gladstone and Balfour were loudly cheered. Guy Fawkes and his gunpowder plot were not forgotten and there was the usual search for possible evidence that any one might design the blowing up of her Majesty’s Parliament. The result of the quest was as usual satisfactory, no lurking anarchist or dynamiter being found. One of the Tories wickedly remarked that it was useless to look for dynamiters in the cellar, as now they had seats in the house, with a fair chance of getting into the cabinet. Michael Davitt secured the seat formerly occupied by Parnell. This selection was not looked upon with favor, even by some of Davitt's Nationalist colleagues, and the Conservatives talk strongly of questioning Davitt’s right to the seat on the ground of his record as a convict. Davitt scase is said to be without precedent in the house, it being claimed by those opposed to his admission that his crime was not polii al in the proper sense of the term and that his presence in Parliament will establish a demoralizing precedi nt. It is thought Mr. Gladstone will have a Liberal majority sufficiently large enough to enable him to carry through & A* Jr® CWgl, 1 .©S 1. T.W. Russell, M. P. 2. Ashmead Bartlett. 8.

The most interesting character in the new Parliament Is John Burns, the Labor "M. P.” He first gained celebrity as a leader during the great “ship" strike when he took up the cause of the striking dock men and gained a decisive victory for them, and later during the Trafalgar riots. He has been a member of the London County Council, and has pushed through a great many labor reforms. In this Parliament he is ranked on the side of the Liberals, although he and his associates will act independently on any measure in which the labor Interests are Involved. There are 670 members in the new Parliament. Joseph Chamberlain, who married a daughter of ex-Secretary of War Endicott, represents Birmingham, and 1b the —_ WBUn “ f CALLED COL. ORR A LIAR. An Exciting; Incident Which Came Near Precipitating a Riot, An exciting incident which nearly resulted in a riot occurred at the State campaign meeting at Union, S. 0. Colonel Orr, the conservative candidate for I Lieutenant Governor, in his speech reiterated the statement heretofore made on the s ump and in the newspapers that Governor Tillman had flaunted his profanity in ; übEe. The Governor in reply said that Orr or any other man who made such an assertion lied. Col. Oir, who is a giant i in physique, rushed upon the Governor, and catching him by the arm wheeled him around and asked him if he desired a personal difficulty. Tillman said he did not. Orr shook his finger in the Governor’s face and fold him he could not intimate that he (Orr) was not truthful without having it thrown in hie (Tillman’s> teeth. Ho told him further that he (Tillman) had boasted of being “God Almighty’s gentleman.” The Gove nor said so he had, and Orr replied: “He did not do himself credit when he made you.” Orr again caught hold of the Governor and asked if he. intimate ! that he was a liar. The Governor said that if Ori' did not originate the s'atement, his remarks did not apply to him. By this time the crowd had become a raging mob. Men pulled off their coats, climbed upon the stand, cursed, and gathered around the two mon, and for several minutes a bloody riot seemed imminent. Col. Orr I for the third time caught hold of TillI man and told him if ho wanted a fight he | could get it. The Governor said he did not, and Col. Orr went back to his seat, remarking that Tillman must let him alone. Quiet w^s then restored. GRAIN DESTROYED BY HAIL. Thousands of Acres in Northern Minnesota Enid Waste by the Storm. A disastrous hailstorm visited the section of country about St. Hilaire, Minn. Nearly every window in the north side of the town was broken and farmers coming in by the dozen report serious loss to grain. The present indications are that a large strip of country has suffered, as farmers are coming in from every direction. Many report that the ground was completely covered with hi 1 and that their grain will not be worth cutting. For a cut. take powdere I resin, pound it very fine, and spread or sift it over the cut; wrap a piece of soft muslin around it, and wet it in cold water quite often. This will prevent inflammation and soreness. You can keep butter and milk frq^i a long time in warm weather without ice by wrapping a large porous pot in a wet cloth and inverting it over the butter or milk. The external evaporation cools the interior. On the eastern shore of Maryland biliousness is cured by boring three holes in a carefully selected tree and walking three times around it, saying, “Go away, bilious.” Never beat the door mat on the piano • legs.

fiery mars in review UNUSUAL CAPERS OF THE Mysterious traveler. AU the Telescopes ot the World Pointed at the Planet— Much New Scientific nowledgc Expected by Investigators— Nothing Y u t Proved. Mars Is n Myslery. Lick Observatory has replied to many Inquiries received during the present oppoeltlon of Mai s, by telegraph and by letter, said Prof. Holden the other day. These inquiries indicate widespread interest, but in very many cases, at least, they appear to be based on misapprehension of the kind of work which is how being done on the planet here and elsewhere. The case is not as if astronomers wore pushing out on an unknown ocean expecting to find an unknown continent. In euch a case the mere announcement of discovery would be all that was needed and expected. The actual circumstances at e very different. It is as if tome one had undertaken to make a new survey o! the State of Arkansas. For example, he would begin by measuring the base lines and by setting stakei and by observing angles am! distances. At the end of weeks anc months he would have his note-booki filled with figures, and after a long season of calculation he would be able to issue a new and accurate map of the region, more accurate, that is, than anj preceding one. This is precisely the immediate object of the observations of Mars which are now being made. The circumstances are very favorabk in that the planet is unusually near to us. They are rather unfavorable in that the planet is very far south and therefore low down in the sky and subject to atmospheric disturbances. Future oppositions, in which the planet will be seen at greater altitude, will be ■ more favorable, even if the planet be then considerably more distant. The immediate object of our work is to make the map in question, and we already have enough material to be sure that we can considerably improve existing maps, although some of them are very fine, especially that made by Prof. Schiaparelli, for example. Os course, the ultimate object of all observations is to determine every possible physical peculiarity of the object to be investigated. If it is a planet, we wish to know how nearly it resembles the earth and whether it is fit to be inhabited by beings like ourselves. AV ith respect to Mars it has been proposed by certain very enthusiastic astronomers to determine the question, Is the planet actually inhabited? and this is a more difficult as well as important question than the mere inquiry as to whether it is fit to be so inhabited. In my opinion the time has not yet come to even speculate on the larger question, and my reason for faying this is that I think it very doubtful if all observations yet made, numerous as they are, are at all sufficient to enable us to pronounce even the lesser inquiry. There Is very little doubt that by and by science will be able to interpret all or nearly all of the phenomena now seen and to arrive at certainties. Just now it must be confessed that only a few things are certainly known with re- ; Bpect to our nearest planetary neighbors. I may say that I observed the .planet at the opposition of 1875 and at planet at the oppositions o D<BB, 1890, and 1892. In fact, we are now giving nearly all the time of the great telesco; o to this work. The Lick telescope has a magnifying power of 2,00 I, which would bring Mars and its moons within an apparent distance of 17,500 m/cs from the earth at the time of the nearest apj roach. But j Mars hangs at a do lination of 22 de- ; grees, and the greatest magnifying power that can be brought to bear upon him i will not be over 700, it is thought. That means that Mars can be brought apparently within 50,000 miles of the earth, and will appear through the telescope as if it were an object 50,000 miles away viewed by the naked eye. WORK FOR TEMPERANCE. Total Abstinence Union Holding an Interesting Session at Indianapolis. Indianapolis special: About 1,000 prominent Catholics from all parts of the country are attending the meeting of the National Catholic Total Abstinence Union. To-day’s proceedings began with high mass at St. John’s. Among the leaders in the Catholic temperance movement who are present at the convention is Father Doyle of New York, who is well known throughout the United States as the lea ling missionary worker of the Paulus order of New York City. It is likely that he will be selected to superintend the total abstinence literary bureau, as ho is considered one of the most energetic workers in that I branch. Father Hanagan, of Philadelphia, is : another delegate. He has the honor of being the president of four temperance Bocieties and is noted for his easnest efforts in building up total abstinence unions throughout Pennsylvania. The most striking delegate in appear- j ance is Father Garland, of Ohio, whose white, wavy hair and finely cut features give him a distinguished appearance. John O’Brien, the millionaire Catholic I of St. Paul, is also present. He was I chairman of the St. Paul committee that made the handsome contribution J recently of $25,000 towar I the endow- j ment of the Father Mathew chair in I the University at Washington, tne of the interesting addresses was by Father Elliott, of New York, who advocated total abstinence in all the Catholic churches. To-night a mass meeting attended by several thousand Catholics was held in Masonic Hall. Fools measure actions after they are done by the event;wise men,beforehand, | by reason and right. The former look to the end to judge the act. Let me look at the act and leave the end with God. The mi roscope las revealed many wonders, among others that the common caterpillar has 4,000 muscles in his body; the drone bee’s eyes each contain i 1,300 mirrors, and that the large eye of I the dragon fly has 28,00) lenses. It is more from carelessness about truth than from intentional lying that there is so much falsehood in the world. —Johnson.

Frightful and Notblng Lsm Are the ravages in physical standna caused by diseases of the kidneys and bladder. Oftentimes, moreover, they are swiftly progressive to a fatal termination. Beginning with simple Inactivity of the organs, renal disease, if nnchecked by intermediate death or relief, winds up in destruction of the kidneys. This is terrible to contemplate, dreadful to undergo. Anticipate the danger by arousing and regulating the kidneys, when inactive, with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a most efflojent diuretic as well as a general alterative and tonic of unexampled excellence. It performs a further good office for the system in promoting activity of the kidneys, In that it more effectually expels through these channels impurities which produce rheumatism and dropsy. Malaria, constipation, biliousness, liver trouble, nervousness, dyspepsia, ail succumb to its beneficent action. The Wild Dogs of Kansas. Numerous reports have reached this city of the depredations of a strange band of animals in the northwestern part of this county. The animals were very wild and were only seen at long Intervals, but at night they could be heard barking and howling around the few scattered houses of the farmers of that part of the county, and while their noise was rather strange for wolves they were supposed to be some new kind. They have been known to attack horses, and have killed numerous colts. A man named Withers shot at a pack of the supposed wolves a few nights ago while they were attacking his colt. A search revealed a band of dogs which were as wild as wolves. They had evidently sprung from some dog strayed away from its master, and the band now numbers at least fifteen.—Goodland Telegram.

For the last financial year there is a balance on the wrong elde of the budget of about 19,5€0,00(f., the receipts being only about two-thirds of the expenditures. The heaviest charge is in respect of the railways, the state eubvention of which is just about equal to their entire receipt^. While the native races of Algeria Increase, the French increase much more rapidly. The latter, at the present rate, will double in twenty years, the former only in forty-six years. Army Deserters.
