A Great Grasshopper Hunt.
LINCOLN, NI:?, April li'.-In Ne
braska ibo farmers and scientists are
organizing a grand grasshopper hunt.
It will be thc first time that anything
of tin; kimi on so large a scale has
been attempted, lt is not intended
that on .stated days the neighbors shall
meet, encircle given territory and
driving the grasshoppers before them
into a constantly narrowing area, heat
them to death, as in the wolf hun! of
old. This is to bc a scientific experi
ment.
Prof. Lawrence. Brunei-, who i- re
garded as thc greatest authority on
grasshoppers in the world, and was
employed by tho Argentine Kepublic
some years ago to rid that ? MM ry "i ^
devastating locusts, is (.? be the leader
of thc hunt, and li i ; now sending j
out circulars, explaining his mode ol j
attack.
Then-ni- twenty species :;!' grass
hoppers in t!?'' railed States, and Ne
braska is alllieted with nine of these.
Kaeh belongs toa breed that multi
plie- ( NC e lingly ind docs great dam
age t<> vegetation. The four most
numerous species are thc two lined,
tho differential, ti; ; red-legged and thc
lesser migratory. The two first named
arc, when Full-grown, au inch and al
hail' from forehead to tip of wing, and
the others only a trille more than an
inch, with bodies in proportion.
The hatching is all done in tho
earth. The female seeks a favorite
spot and lay ber eggs, tine female
will lay 100eggs in a grjshn. Usually
only a single generation of these in
sects is raised in a year. It is cal
culated that under favorable conditions
the number is increased fifty times
each year.
This is what has happened in west
ern and southwestern Nebraska, in
the alfalfa country, where no fanner
is content unless he gets four crops a
year of that forage plant. Thc hop
pers arc overrunning everything and
the farmers have begged thc scientists
to relieve them. Tho scientists say
that thc unusual increase in thc hop
pers is duo to the fact that several
seasons have been very dry in that re
gion, which lessens the liability of
tho hopper to disease and at tho same
time kills off the parasites that look
upon hopper meat as thc darkey does
upon possum.
The scientists have tried several
old remedies but they haven't worked
well. Insect-destroying fungi halted
tho hoppers for a time, but they seem
to have secured an antidote for some
of these fungi and the only death
dealing fungus is that known to botan
ists as Kmpusa gryllae. This causes
an epidemic wherever it can bo propa
gated.
When once attacked thc hopper
climbs up tho stem nf some weed or
other plant and scourcly attaches it
self by tightly hugging the plant with
its front and middle legs. In this po
sition it dios. A few days after death
the body open ) at thc joints and tho
dust-like spores currr tho poison on
the wind to b<j deposited where some
other hopper is making a meal on veg
etation.
The most popular method of fight
ing thc grasshoppers has been to har
row or disk the land in which grass
hopper I eggs have been deposited.
This stirring of thc soil not only de
stroys many eggs but also exposes tho
remainder to the sun or thc birds and
parasites. It is also a good thing for
thc alfalfa crop. Cross-disking gen
erally ends tho grasshopper plague io
that imm?diate neighborhood, but it
is necessary to go not only over culti
vated laud but also along irrigating
ditches, old roads and deserted break
ings.
Thc various remedies have been
tried, but still the grasshopper flour
ishes and threatens the crops. And
so tho grand hunt is to take place.
There will be no firearms, uo club.-..
lt will be a hunt by machinery.
The machine is called thc hopper
dozer and can bc operated by hand (ir
horse. It is made of stovepipe iron
by turning up thc sides and cuds of
the sheet about four inches so as to
make a long flat pan about four inches
in depth. This is mounted on run
ners varying in height according to re
quirements. On a frame back of thc
pan is stretched a piece of cloth to
prevent thc insects from jumping over
thc pan.
When ready for work thc pan is
partly filled with water awi then some
coal oil is added. If the ground is
level no cross pieces arc necessary,
but if the pan is to bc used on sloping
ground it should bc made with little
partitions every six or eight inches tn
prevent the oil and water from run
ning to ono end. Thc height of the
runners varies from two toten inches,
depending upon the crop to bc pro
tected and tho age of tho insects to be
captured.
Thc results aro surprising. The
hoppers are simply mowed down.
They come leaning toward thc strang
smelling liquid; then they want to
leap out again, but thc oil kills them.
When tho dozer gets full, the dead in
sects aro shovelled out, a little more
oil added and thc machine is started
again. Bushels of hoppers can bo de
stroyed in a singlo day. It is with
these hopoerr. that the hunt is to be
conducted.

'One of thc records exhibited was
from Huston, lt had talked over aa

thc tclcgraphouc. The record was put
in and the cylinder started by means
of its clockwork attachment.
"'Hello, New Vork!' sounded the
instruments, loud and clear. 'This is
Boston. Now arc you ul 1 in New
Vork, and how's my old friend Mr.
Kusenbaum? Hope you're having
Setter weather there than we arc hav
iug herc. Been raining three weeks.
Well, good-by.'
"This record had been sent a week
ago. Another reeord was exhibited
from Chicago. Charles A. Brown, a
Chicago patent solicitor, was at thc
phone-that is, he had been the day
before-and thc phonograph repeated
everything ho said with faithful ac
curacy.
"For instance, Mr. Smith, telephone

lie expects one of his clients to ring

" 'Hello, Mr. Brown. Tois is Mr.

"Thou the client talks away and tho
faithful telegraphone records all he
has to say. Next morning Mr. Smith
has Mr. Brown's message bright and

on to thc telephone receiver.
"This new apparatus differs from
tho ordinary phonograph in being
electrical, where tho phonograph is
purely mechanical. Thc records are
taken on cylinders charged with a
spiral of steel wire, the magnet mag
netizing tho wiro with varying de

reproduce the sound it is simply ne
cessary to adjust thc magnet to the

Back From thc Philippines.
Quartermaster Sergt. K. A. Bawls,
of (J Battery 3rd artillery, U. S. A.,
arrived here yesterday from :-an Fran
cisco, where he has been confined in a
hospital since his arrival in this coun
try from the Philippines. Sergt.
Bawls is an old Charleston boy and
during thc Spanish-American war
served under Capt. Kdward Anderson.
Several months..go he wa< taken sick
and was sent to a hospital in Manila.
From then he was sent to San Fran
cisco asa convalescent patient and
r ow he i- un a iwu month's sick leave.
Sergt. Kiwis went to the Philippines
in ISM and tij> t<> thc limo he was
taken .-ick lie accompanied hi* battery
e\ cry w here il went.
"After thc Spanish war,'' he suid,
'1 left Charleston, accompanied by
Waters, nf Camden; Moseley of Cam
den, and Bethen, of Marion. Wc
went from herc to San I'rancisco and
there we were assigned to the i?rd
artillery. A portion of tin: artillery
wa? stationed in int: Philippines at
iL : time and we weic hustled over
there at once. Wu arrived lhere some
time ' Hiing the early part nf May and
il was not long after that before wc
saw actual lighting.
"But there is really no lighting
going on lhere now. In fact it has
beeii over a year now since there bas
been a real good clash. Ol' course, in
the mountains there are bandits,
sometimes thirty strong, and they fire
on wagon trains. .Just before I was
taken sick we captured over thirty at
one time. They are very ignorant
people and don't mind doing any thing.
"All of the business of the island
is carried on by the women. That
might seem very strange, but it is a
fact. The men arc too lazy. All that
they do is to gamble aud fight cocks.
Thc women are very thrifty and many
of them have made enormous fortunes.
They manage all kinds of business,
farm, export stuff, etc. Some of the
womeu arc very good looking. They
do not differ in looks very much from
an Indian. Their skin, of course, is
very dark and, as a rule, their noses
are Hat, but their hair is perfectly
straight. Those that have mouey
dress in fashion. I think thc fashion
is that of thc time of Queen Isabelle,
of Spain. I know it is very old.
"Thc people have no written his
tory, because they have no language.
They speak only dialect. In tho is
lands there are over 500dialects. The
people have traditions, but nothing is
written. In the larger cities Spanish
to a great extent is spoken. Before
I left hero I was able to speak a little
Spanish and after I got to the island
I studied veryjierd. After a while I
was able to talk fairly well. But to
talk with all the natives is simply
impossible, owing to tho many dia
lects.
"I suppose there has been a great
deal of talk concerning tho fare and
food of thc soldiers fighting in the
Philippines. As a rule the food is
very good. Io some of the outlaying
camps or districts it is difficult to get
fresh meat, because thc wagons can
not get to the camps as often as they
would like. There is a great scarcity
of milk. The cows on the island suf
fer from somo kind of disease which
make.-, thc milk worthless. Most of
the fresh meat is brought from Aus
tralia and it is usually good. Tho
meat is mostly beef and mutton. Veg
etable?, of course, aro a luxury. Tho
people on the island are too lazy to
plant to any extent, that is, such
things ad require attention.
"I do not remember meeting any
South Carolina boys over there, with
the exception of thc oues who went
with mo. When I left the island,
they were in good health and longing
to get home."-i?ncuaml Conrici:

Give Vach Woman a Husband.
There is uu apparent necessity for
there being "obi maids" except in
Europe. Everywhere else there arc
more than enough men to go round one
for each woman, and 15 300,000 extra
I ones who must perfor?e remaiu bauch -
? Hors or widowers.
I This is a fact of statistics-there
! are 15 300,000 moro men than women,
j in this world. Thc malo excess is
? stupendous -e<jual to about onc-lifth
? of thc lot ti population of the United
j States.
Thc total population of thc earth is
j estimated at 1,51)0,000,000. More than
I one half of them have been actually
I counted, while the balance is careful
I ly estimated. Statisticians have
investigated the question of thc num
erical strength of the two sexes, and
their estimates involve 1,283,000,00t)
suuis, or about ss per cent of the to
tal population o*' thc earth.
According to their estimates, Eu
rope has a population ol' 331,000,000.

-thc only country that has an excess
ol' women. Asia has a population of
815,001),UDO, with a male plurality of
10,000,000; Africa, with a population
of 27,000,000, has about 1,000,000
more men than women: in America,
which has a population of 102,000,000,
there arc also about 1,000,000 more
men than women; thc plurality of men
in Australia, with a total population of
4,000,000, is about 500,000.
According io the estimates of the
statisticians there are(557,500,000 men
and 042,500,000 women in this world,
giving thc men a majority of 15,300,
000. Even in Europe there are many
countries where the men outnumber
the women. This is the case in Italy,
Greece, Roumania, Bulgana, Servia,
Bosnia and Herzegovina, aud in the
small principality of Liechtenstein.
Tho aggregate of thc populations of
those countries gives the men a ma
jority of about 500,000.
Portugal, Sweedeu, Norway, Rus
sian Boland aud Great Britain show a
preponderance of women at tho ratio
of 1,060 women to 1,000 men. In
Germany there aro 1,030 women to
every 1,000 men, while the majority
of women in Hungary, Russia, France j
aud Belgium is comparatively insigni
ficant. This is in large measure due
to two causes. First, Europe has
been a terrible battle ground for cen
turies; second, tho greater proportion
of American immigrants have come
from Europe and a large majority of
?hem were men.
It has been found that women arc
more sociable than men, and that they
avoid countries whero the population
is thinly scattered over a largo terri
tory. Hunting and pastoral peoples
and even those in the first stages of
agricultural development for that rea
son invariably have more men than
women. The countries with the
greatest industrial development in pro
portion to their area show tho great
est numerical preponderance of wo
men.
Other elements which greatly influ
ence the percentage of women are
their legal status, including the laws j
of inheritago and succession, unfav- j
orable marriage laws and other condi
tions inimical to the rights of wo
men.
Climate and meteorological condi- j
tions-also influence the relativa ratio
between men and women. In tropi
cal and polar zones tho men predomi
nate in numbers, while in thc moder
ate zone the women slightly predomi
nate. Dry and sterile countries in
variably have moro men than women,
while the opposite is thc case in fer
tile countries with sufficient rainfall.
In America alone thc statistics
show that there arc 1,000,000 more
men than women. So at least 1,000,
000 of thc mon should bc considered
exempt from the bachelor's tax. If
these arc more than 1,000,000 bachel
ors in the couutry all above that num
ber exempt should be, when properly
coralled aud branded, made to pay the
proper tax if thc Legislatures of thc
various States choose to heed the cry
of thc enemies of bachelors ab J put a
tax on them.
But from thc statistics it eau readi
ly be seen that not old bachelors, but
old maids, should be taxed. Tho vis
iblo supply of men in the world seems
to bo far over tho demand.-St. Lom?
