Awful Punishment That Was Decreed by an Ancient Council. uBerne has an official .collector of June bugs," writes a correspondent of the Chicago News from Switzerland. "This personage is appointed by the city council when the triennial pest of June bugs occurs, and he is empowered to destroy all the insects that may be brought to him. Each owner of a small estate is obliged to gather five pounds of bugs, and those who happen to be the proprietors of larger pieces * 4? -- ? A. Artll AA+ tMfATVVI^lAn, 01 fffopcry uiusL uuucvt piujrvtuvuately more. For each pound that is missing from this obligatory amount a fine of 10 cents is imposed, but if more than the required quota is forthcoming a premium of 2 cents a pound is paid. This remuneration is offered also to others besides the property owners. A landholder who entirely neglects to gather any bugs at all is subject to a fine of from $5 to $10. School children receive permission to enter large estates, where they shake the trees and poke long sticks about'in their endeavors to dislodge as many bugs as possible. "In times of old, the ancient chroniclers tell us, it was the custom to attempt to rid the country of these unwelcomfe visitors by citing them Into court and by banishing them from the country, but the wily insects failed to obey the summons. and continued to fly about In the face of the law, laying eggs promiscuously and contrary to edict. In a certain village it was determined to make a terrible and lasting example of all the insects found .within its borders. With considerable expenditure of time and patience quantities of bugs were collected and placed in a huge sack. Deliberation was held as,to the fate of these hard backed prisoners. Ordinary death was considered too light a punishment for sucb offenders. A hideous end must b theirs. "A procession of the inhabitants ol the village, advisers and councilors, wise men and children, wended its waj slowly toward the place of execution the summit of a high peak. This was laboriously climbed, an executionei with the bag of buzzing bugs in tnc lead. With due regard for the respon sibility and justness of their act,'the wise men approached the edge of the precipice. The bugs were to be lgno minlously dashed to pieces on the rocks thousands of feet below. Th< executioner hung over the crag, th< bag, top downward, was opened anc the bugs shaken out to their death But instead of falling like so manj . lumps of lead, as they ought to hav< done on such an occasion, the bugs, t( the amazement of all, spread thefa wings and flew away."
