THE MOSQUITO SONG. Canaed by Action of Wins and the In sect's 'Breathing;. You can best observe the mosquito In a.ctloa by letting one kettle undlsturtjed on tbe back of your band, and waiting while she fills herself wltb your blood; you. can easily watch her doing so with a-pocket lens. Like tbe old lady If "i'ickwlck," she Is soon "swelling wis Ibly." She 'gorges herself with blood. Indeed, which she straightway digests, assimilates and converts into 3u0 eggs. But If, while she Is sucking, you gently and unobtrusively tighten the skin of your band by clenching your fist hard you will find that she cannot any longer withdraw her mandibles; they are caught fast In your Besb by their owu harpoon-like teetb, and there she must Btop accordingly till you choose to re lease her. If you then kill her in the rjsual manner by a smart slap of the hand, you will see that she is literally full of blood, having sucked In a good drop of It Tbe bumming sound Itself "by which the mosquito announces her approach ing visit is produced by two distinct manners. The deeper notes which go to make up ber droning song are due tc tbe rapid vibration of the female In sect's wings as she flies; and these vi brations are found by means of a siren an instrument which measures the fre quency of tbe waves In notes) t amount to about 3,000 in a minute. Tin mosquito's wings must, therefore, mov with this extraordinary rapidity, which sufficiently accounts for the difficulty we bave In catching one. But the higher and shriller notes ol the"complex melody are due to special trldulatlng organs situated like Uttli drums on the openings of the air tubes; for the adult mosquito breathes nc longer by one or two air entrances on tbe tall or back, like the larva, but by a- number of spiracles, as they are called, arranged in rows along the sides of the body and communicating wltb the network of internal air chambers. Tbe curious mosquito music tbis gen erated by the little drums serves almost beyond a doubt as a means of attract-, lng male mosquitoes, for It is known that tbe long hairs on tbe antennae of the males vibrate sympathetically in union with the notes of a tuning fork, within the range of tbe sounds emitted by the female. In other words, halt and drums just answer to one another. We may, therefore, reasonably con clude that the female sings In order to please and attract ber wandering mate, and that tbe antennae of tbe mate art organs of hearing which catch and re spond to tbe buzzing music she pours forth for ber lover's ears. A whole swarm of gnats can be brought down, Indeed, by uttering the appropriate not of tbe race; you. can call them some what as you can call male glow worms by showing a light which they mistake for the female. Strand Magazine. Honored Hla Uniform. The capitol police wear natty uni forms of blue cloth adorned wltb brass buttons, and, taken all together, are an attractive body of men.' One of these public servants, a gather young and good-looking man, was greatly embar rassed the other day by a handsome young creature from Virginia, who, tripping gayly up to him, pinned a hand some rose to the lapel of his coat "Take that with my gratitude," she said, theatrically, "my country's de fender." "Country's dofendeT, mls7" echoed the astonished man. "Yes," replied the enthusiastic young woman, "you hare got a new uniform on, but for alt that you look brave and I know yon were in tbe thick of the fight at Santiago." , It was useless to attempt an explana tion with so determined a hero worship er, and tb member of tbe capitol police force beat a hasty retreat, still weauicg his rose.

Tbe Taotai of Shang hai haa notified the banker's commis sion that China refuses to pay the July Installment of the indemnity except at the rate of exchange prevailing April, 1901. The foreign ministers consider that the Taotai's declantion is the re sult of the announcement of the United States minister, ' Mr. Conger, to the Chinese, that the United States sus tains China's contention and is willing to accept payment on the basis men tioned. But the ministers are confi dent that China will accept the decision of the majority of the ministers when she is convinced that the United States is her only supporter. . Some of the ministers insist that the policy of the United States is nnreasonable and in direct ' opposition to the terms of the protocol., They assert that Prince Ching, head of the foreign office, and oYhor (hinese officials, before learning that China had the support of the United R.tates in the matter, admitted that their arguments were rather a plea for mercy than a demand for justice. r- -so Williamson Republican Eh "5 Rpautdlna; rronluitiuu Gerdea Socialist S3 ; - -jf. - Mt Butcher Democrat Weatherford lemocrat 8 K 5 o Q ! s 1 :S j ;t ill. i Tona-ue -Republican if. n Ra-"n Prohibition fionld Socialist : : : : Whitney R01 uMican H w'rt" 3T Mitfiod.2?

GREAT STKIKE IS ON FREIGHT HANDLERS IN CHICAGO OUT FOR MORE PAY. Over Nine Thousand Men Quit Work Upon Order of Executive Cemmittee of Freight Handler,' Union Chicago Federation of Labor Disapproves of Strike and Will Not Assist th Freight Handlers. Chicago, July 9. Hopes' of a Speedy settlement of the strike of the Freight Handlers' Union, which' was dedared yesterday, are entertained bv olliciuls of the union and members of the stute board of atbitration. The ollicialsof the nnion, nt a conference last night, told Chairman Job, of the board of ar bitration, that they were witling to permit employes of the different com panies to meet olliciuls of the same to discuss the wage scale, providing a joint conference - should be bold at which official of the union would be permittedtto act as advit-ers to the men. The arbitration board is now working on the matter in an effort to bring about a conference between the railway managers and committees representing the men. As the railroad officials ' have offered this step from the begin ning of the controversy, there is little doubt the strike can be settled satis factorily to both sides if the conference is arranged. Lack of unanimity already perme ates the strike. The Chicago Federa tion of Labor was ignored when the order was issued for the men to quit work, and its executive officials are somewhat offended and are inclined to let the freight handlers tight out their battle in their ow n way. There are 12,000 freight handlers in and alxuit the various . fteight houses of the 24 railroads centering in Chicago. Of this number, more than 9,000 are now involved in the strike. Some of the men who quit work did so under pro test. Notably was this the case in the ireight house of the Lake Shore & Michigan Central. The men there employed were receiving all the con sideration they had asked. They were forced to strike, however, by the order of the executive committee of their union. Hefore going out the men in formed the railway official of the situ ation, ana said they would seek an im mediate return order from the authori ties that had Ordered them out. The sudden suspension of customary operations" bv the freight handlers oc casioned considerable trouble in and about the various railroad warehouses and stations, but the inconvenience and delay were but a drop in w bucket to what will happen if the strike shall not be settled soon. To add to the present . difficulties of tHo railroads, the Teamsters' and Truckmen's Union threatens to join in a sympathetic strike. If this shall occur, it will affect all incoming and outgoing freight of evwy kind. Kvery railroad in Chicago today accepted all freight offered. ' While it was con fessed by several railroad officials that Ireight was not being moved as expe ditiously as heretofore, yet it was said the larger part of it was' being handled well. The various frtdgtithonse and yards, however, disclosed a largo ac cumulation of unmoved freight and cars loaded with freight. There was no trouble or disorder in or about any of the freight houses. Anticipating the possibilities of such a strike, the railroad companies had brought to Chicago a number of men to take the places of the strikers. These men were intercepted by pickets of the strikers, and most of them ere induced to join the Freight Handlers' Union. TO DREDGE COOS BAY. People Request a Change In Plan of Harbor Work Non.
