derson was without any doubt the most
vicious person be had ever driven. He
had promised to return peaceably with
the driver but before he had got out of
the city limits it Was found necessary
to tie his hands and feet in order to
keep him in the vehicle. His home was
reached after several hours drive and

low county man who was sent out of

the fact that be was just recovering
from an attack of smallpox, was seen
on the streets of this city yesterday. A
diligent search was made but no trace
of vim eould be found. He is said to
be in a dementel condition and this
doubtless accounts for his ' queer ac
tions. In the police court yesterday after
noon Elias Green, the negro man who
waa arrested at Bridgeton last Wednes
day right a being a suspicious charac
ter, Was given a hearing on a warrant
charging him w'th mis-representation,

THE 17 YEAR LO
GUSTS REAPPEAR
Thousands of Grubs Hear Nyack.
yjLast Visitation Worked Great
Havoc.
- New York, Feb. 16. The 17 year lo
custs which are due tojreturn to plague
the American farmer this summer, af-
ler being absent since 1894, have ttfhde
. . .
their appearance in the qcmity-ot New
lorn cicyi uurator uittmara or me in. ;
Y. Zoological Society, has discovered
the first grubs, several thousand in
numlers, in an txcavatinn n ar Nyack;
N. Y. By the time the frost W out of
the ground these thousands will be mil
lion, he say?, -'V-S
. Dating the last previous visitation
the locusts literally covered suburban
New Yotk, stripping trees, bus-heB,
hedges, lawnsjawr-fruck farms of ev
erything green, and tt en moving in vast
clouds which obscured the us, to fresh
fields. The individual locusts lived only
a few davs. but each female in that
time found time to lay about oot) eggs
en the branches of denuded trees. When
the larvaee hatched they fell to the
ground find turrowed stfaightdown fr
more than a foot. w
There, It is said, they have rested for
17 years before the process of hatching
was complete, and as soon as the fr st
leaves the ground they will dig their
way to the surface and appear as small
obleng shells. The grubs found in the
excavation at Nyack are said to be coin
pletely formed and ready to come to
the surface as soon as the earth warms
up.
Chinatown will welcome the visita
tion. The Chinese cook makes them
into pies, roasts them as a salid. and
dresses them in many mysterious ways
and even New Yorkers have found some
of these dishes palatable.

Goldsboro, N. C " A physician treat

writes Mrs. Etta A. Smith, "but gavs

"I suffered with neuralgia around the

"After taking Cardul. I am now well
and can recommend it to other suffering

Just such doubtful symptoms, as those
from which Mrs. Smith suffered, are the
ones for which it will pay you to take
Cardui, the woman's tonic.
It is at such times, when there Is noth
ing to show, for certain, the real cause of
the trouble, that you need a tonic, to give
the body strength to throw off the illness
that evidently threatens.
Take Cardui, when -you are III, with

Raise $100,000 to Fight Hitchcock
w 'Plan.
New York, Feb. 15 One hundred
thousand dollars has been raised to fight
the proposed increase in the magazine
postal rates.
S, S, McClure, one of the leading
magasioe men of the United States,
announces that 100 periodical publish
ers have pledged themselves' to contfT
bute 11,000 to a fund to be used in news
paper advertisements setting forth the
publishers' reakons, for opposing the
pending measure. , ;
McClure flatly denied Postmaster-
General Hitchcock's statement that the
magazines are making huge profits,
and he also declared that if the increase
to be put into effect popular maga
zines of the type of McClure's and
Everybody's will be wiped out of ex
istence,
"No magazine of our tyre," said Mc-
Clnre, "earns an adequate return on the
investment becauss of the high! cost of
editorial matter Used. Some of the
series af special articles used represent
an outlay of from $30,000 to $50,u00.
Tne result of the proposed iniquitous in
crease would be nothing less than for
cing us to spend more money than our
magazines earn.' For this reason we
purpose letting the public know the
true intent of the measure, feeling sure
that, thus aroused, the reading public
wilt protest against the pisspge of tht
bill."
Dean Swift and tha Cook.
"Moderation In till thluitK" Is tht
best precept for everyday Ufa There
a good story about Deun wiri
apropos of the value of never overdo
ing anything. . -
The dean's cook one day overroasted
the leg of mutton for dinner, uutf in
onsequeuce she was summoned to
the dining room. "Cook," said tne
dean In a pleasant voice, "this leg -or
mutton is overdone; take it back and
do It less."
"Impossible, your reverence!" ex
claimed the cook. ' .
"Well," replied her master, "suppos
ing it bad beewlinderdone, you could
easily have done It more."
'Certainly, your reverence."
Then." said the dean, "let this be
lesson to you. If you commit a
fault always take care that it is a
fault which will admit of a remedy.'
