Tint Philadelphia Iti-ir has seen it stated that in the central part of the state a number of farmers re port in plowing that they have turned up large numbers of the '"seventeen year" locusts. This is the year. The seven teen -year locust of ljinuaus, which was first seen in thU country so long ago as 1S33. has come ou time at every period. He was hero in 1S51 and ISGS and is due now. His coming will add to the fenrs of the superstitious, from the zig-zag lines at the end of his wing covers, which take the form of a , are in the vulgar belief supposed to hint at war to come, although by the ancient Egyptians, to whom these insects were known, the locust was taken to be a minister of religion and is so used in their hieroglyphics. According to Dr. AY. D. Hartmau of West Chester, who has made an interesting study of this locust, lit tle is known of their infant life of seventeen years under ground, beneath which they have been found at a deptli of twenty feet. "When they come out it is feasting time for hogs and poultry. Hens will cat enough to color their eggs and flesh. Even cats eat them. Sixteen broods have been traced in this country. Of these the last brood is indigenous from Massachus etts to Georgia, and west Ohio and Michigan. Their favorite haunts are among young oaks and chestnuts. Indians boil them and they are so fat that soap has been made from thorn. "Where they come from and where they come from or go to no one knows definitely. They do not effect much damage except to young trees, and their advent is more a sub ject of curios ity than of alarm. Prof. Riley, the eminent entomol ogist, says: "It appears that this seventeen year locust docs not breed in those northern stales, or portions thereof, in which the woods are com posed more or less exclusively of pine trees or other conifers, llhode Island possesses no broods so far as we know, but this may be due to want of proper records, as several broods reach close to the borders of that slate. Neither does the species occur in the peninsula of Florida, for reasons either of a climatic or geo logical nature. Our knowledge of the western extent has greatly in creased since 1SGS, and some broods can now be traced as far west as east ern Montana and Wyoming, central Colorado and the extreme western parts of Texas, while less reliable evidence even indicates that the species may occur in western Mon tana along streams emptying into the Pacific ocean. Unless this report be substantiated in future, the range will not extend beyond the dividing range of the Rocky mountains." The pay-as-you go principle is making headway in American cities. As a Springfield, Mass.. councilman said the other day, " borrowing money at interest when the city has ready cash isn't the thing." The point was carried, thus scoring a clear advance. Borrowed money in the conduct of city business is too much like "found" money to the in dividual. Easy come, easy goes. The notion that a city must borrow money to get things easily and quickly has been fostered jointly by the large pioperty-holder and the money-changer, the one because he speculates upon the morrow, the other because of the direct profit The simple truth is that taxation is the quickest resource in an emergency. A city should carry a moderately large cash balance, but beyond this it should be able to levy and collect a tax within a week. The contrary view has almost universal acceptance, but it is certain to go down. Gekeuaij Pope has transmitted to the war department an account of the killing of a Piute Indian named Joe, by two white men in Happy valley, Oregon. In commenting upon the killing, General Pope again invites attention to white and Indian out rages which are increasing in fre quency in the southern part of Ore gon. He says the Piutes having no reservation, are willing to go to and frequent that country for subsistence, by hunting and fishing. The state of affairs now existing is certain to grow worse, and must finally culminate in open hostilities, unless a reservation is assigned these Indians, and they are placed on it. The commissioner of Indian affairs has directed the agent to investigate the circum stances and report measures looking to the protection of the Indians. A remarkable piece of information has been received at San Francisco, in a special dispatch to the Chronicle from New York, which states that Mcssedainlia Bey, former governor of upper Egypt, has written to the Ital ian commander at Mmwownh that he recently has mini a Suau who had passed three mouths at the reaideuce of EI Mahdi, after the fall of Khar toum. He says El Mahdi has Gordon in secret keeping, haviug discovered him severely wounded, but not dead, and that Gordon, has recovered. The story is credited at Mumownh, and forms the subject of u official dis patch. Ar the state fi.-di hatcher at Hat creek, Shasta eouuty, t'al., a aahuon hatchery is soon to be built. It is the intention of the commissioners to hateh about four million salmon this season, and more each succeeding season. Two large reservoirs are to be constructed near the hatchery, in which to keep yonug salmon. The hatchery will have a propagating ca pacity of nearly fifteen million salm on, or more than double the capacity of the United States hatchery on Mc Cloud river. A dispatch has been received at the "Washington postoflice depart ment from British Columbia, saying that Hibbs, absconding postmaster of Lewiston, Idaho, who stole 29,000, is willing to compromise by returning SS,000 of the stolen money for his freedom. The posmaster general has decided that the offer will be refused, as the government would rather have Hibbs than the money. Extradition proceedings will begin in a few days. IIOIIN'.
