tbe
THE! FEED UPON POTATO VINES.
Called the Flea-Beetle Because They Are
Good Jumpers.
JL EriDEK THAT BITES PEOPLE'S LIPS
John M. Bruce, of Squirrel Hill, has
discovered a little insect which outclasses
the potato bug in everything but size. Mr.
JJruce sorrowfully exhibits a two-acre field
fiat recently promised a good crop of po
tatoes and says: "This field of potato vines
vas as srecn as could be three days ago. It
as then that I first noticed the failing of
roy neighbor's crop and made the remark
that I thought the potatoes were rotting
i err rapidly. I went over and examined
the vines and found them covered with
myriads of these little bugs. Uever in all
my experience have I seen injects work
with such disastrous effect. It took them
jnst two days to rid this two-acre field of
every green leaf it possessed; so you see it
now devoid of verdure except for the
scattered weeds. They seem to have
a regular way of attacking a field, com
mencing at one side and never stopping
until they have completed their work of
devastation. Then they proceed to new terri
tory. The only vegetables they appear to
have a liking for is the tomato and potato,
at least we only find them doing work on
those vines.
Fntatn Boj Driven Away.
"Usually there are numerous common
potato bugs about, but this year this species
is not in it, and it is difficult to find a siugle
one about the place. You notice that these
bugs can jump like a Ilea and also have
wings, so they are not long in getting from
one place to another. Vou don't see them
as they were before the heavy rain, for
where there is one now there were S00 then.
If they continue to spread and multiply as
thev have iu this locality in the past week,
notice should be -eut to the Agricultural
Department, for they are a formidable loe
to the plants.
"We seem to hae a corner in peculiar
injects up here on the hill. There is some
sort of a bug or spider which has been
troubling us during the summers for several
vears past. It has the singular habit of
biting the upper liis of people during the
night. The lip swells up to enormous size,
causing much pain, then the swelling grad
ually subsides. AVe have neer been able
to find out what sort ot a thing it is that
does this, but theie is no doubt that it
exists, as a dozen persons hae been at
tacked in exactly the same inannci."
An Eipert on th- II p t Beetle.
The reporter obtained several specimens
of the little injects and took them to Dr.
Hamilton, 18 Ohio street, Allegheny, who
lias studied the subject tor 30 yearsand is
considered one of the best authorities on
beetles in the city. The doctor has col
lected about 2.000 specimens of the beetles
ionnd in this locality, each one as different
lrom the other as a horse is from a cow.
He says there are about 1,000 specimens
U'ore which he has not yet obtained. The
doctor's collection numbers some 5,000 in
all, out ol 11,000 species to be found in the
United Slates.
Upon examining the specimens brought
to him, he said: "This is a very common
species of the beetle, known as the flea
beetle on account ot its jumping like a ilea.
Its scientific name is thecrepidodera cucum
ens the latter part of the name being
given by tne discoverer, because he foend
1ust specimen on a cucumber vine. They
jave never-done much damage, and have
never been kno -n as a pest, but this year
I have noticed a ttvry unusual num
ber, and, there being power in numbers,
they may do a great deal of effective work.
The insect usually feeds on weeds in the
woods, but it has also been known to at
tack cucumber, tomato and potato vines and
cabbage and turnips. The eggs of the flea
beetle are laid on the leaves of the vine,
then the larva is hatched and falls
to the ground, where they live during
the spring. The larva then hatches ont into
a beetle. They multiply very rapidlv, there
being two or three broods during tne sum
mer.taking a month tor every brood. You
would not have noticed that" these insects
have wings if it had not been a hot day, for
they have a shell completely hiding them
lrom view, ana tney are unable to fly when
it is cold.
"The absence of the common potato bug is
easily accounted tor by the intense hot
weather we have beeu having. The hot snn
kills the larva and there are no bugs hatched.
The same means used against the potato bug
ought to be effective against the flea beetle.
The only trouble is that on account of their
Mnallntss they cannot be brushed off like the
common bug."
SWIKDL1KG THE VETEEAHS.
A Co ored Man Collects Subscriptions for a
"World's Fair Slonumcnt.
A letter from George K. Davis, Director
General of the World's Fair, was received
by Captain J. H. Stevenson yesterday that
indicates that many of the Grand Army
posts and colored churches have been swin
dled by G. W. Bryjmt. At the time De
partment Commander Boyer was given a
public reception by the old soldiers at Old
City Hall a colored man who gave his name
as G. V. Bryant appeared in the city. He
Baid he was from Missouri, and was a
Teteran. He wore a Grand. Army button,
but had no other credentials. Bryant at
tended the rectptiou . at Old City
Hall and made an eloquent speech
that captured his hearers. The
next day the object of his visit was
made known. He was collecting money to
erect a monument at the World's Fair to
the colored soldiers of the Rebellion. He
visited a number of the Grand Army posts
End made speeches that usually resulted in
a 525 contribution; all the colored churches
mid other organizations were calle&on, and
in additional personal subscriptions were
solicited. Altogether, it is thought, he got
a large sum of money.
Captain Stevenson did not think Bryant's
recount of himself straight, and wrote to
Director General Davis. Yesterday he got
this brief reply: "Replying to your com
munication in reference to G. W. Brvant
(colored), I have to say that he has not been
authorized by the Exposition to collect
money for the erection ot a monument or
etatue at the World's Fair, nor has he any
authority to represent the World's Fair
Commission,"
Bryant left Pittsburg some few weeks
sitice to go East, and it is supposed that he
is collecting money for his monument in
some of the seaboard cities. When here he
was accompanied by hi wife, and both were
the recipients ot many courtesies and atten
tions by the Ladies of the Grand Army and
the Woman's .Relief Corps.

Tbo Inituslrii Coinmlssionbr at the Mil
waukee lined Says ITaitern Capltnl Is

toiti s Griming In Illinois and Iowa.
Luis Jackson, of Chicago, Industrial
Commissioner of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and St. Paul Eailway, registered at tho
Monongahela House yesterday. He has
been all over the Bast securing industries
to locate on his line of road. JIT. Jackson
says that there.is a healthy industrial de
velopment goingon in theAVestern States,the
cheap coal of Illinois and Iowa having made
manufacturing possible. He believes that
in the enlargement of the manufacturing
territory of the United States the "West will
come in for a great share of the develop
ment, because the people there are enter
prising and abreast of the times in every
thing, and, in conjunction with Eastern
men and Eastern capital, are now rapidly
utilizing the hard wood, iron and other
natural resources.
From here Mr. Jackson leaves to make a
canvass of the sewer pipe districts of Ohio.
He says that a new sewer pipe works at
Sioux City, la., turns out pipe and drain
tile of the best quality, nor does this in any
way affect the output of the Ohio plants,
because the distance is too great to snip to,
whereas a western plant creates its own
market bv bringing the material within
reach of the consumer. He says the crop
outlook in the "West is very good and an
other prosperous season is expected.
"While it is the business of the iudus
trial department of the St. Paul road to
act as a means of inter-communication be
tween manufacturers seeking eligible
locations and the cities that offer
them," he continued, "I did not
call on Mr. Erick. Ol course it
would be a grand thing to locate a plant of
13,000 men somewhere on our line between
Illinois and South Dakota, but we are very
modestrwe are not read v for a 13,000-man in
dustry yet and I did not call for the reason
that we don't want to bite off more than we
can chew."
Mr. Jackson says the fathers who have
made money in the East usually set up
their boys in business in thriving Western
cities. Few plants are removed from the
East, but the young men are established in
different industries in the West. The peo
ple of Iron Mountain. Midi., are figuring
on building steel mills there, but the ques
tion now is how they can get coke cheap
enough to compete.
LOOKING AFTEE LITTLE OSES.
Securing the Rsleaso of a Boy From Mor-
ganzi.
Secretary Dorente, of the Anti-Cruelty
Society, yesterday secured the release of
Russell Zollinger, who was committed to
Morganza on the oath of his father. The
lather had been prosecuted and fined by
Alderman Kerr for abusing his family and
the children given to the care of the Anti
Cruelty Society, so that the commitment to
Morganza was illegal. Secretary Dorente
promised to assume the responsibility of
the boy's future and the lad was given in
bis charge.
Stella Jackson, tne colored girl who was
in charge of the Anti-Cruelty Society, has
been sent to the Poor Farm. Agent Fisher
tried to secure the girl a home in the col
ored orphan asylum, but was unable, as the
only persons who could give a permit were
out of the city.
The two children of Mrs. Eaydon, who
was sent to the workhouse by Magistrate
Succop, and the two children of Mrs. Con
way, sent to workhouse for keeping a speak
easy, were yesterday placed in St. Paul's
Orphan Asylum by the Anti-Cruelty So
ciety.
MISEBABLE GLASS SALES,
Few Bayers Attended the July Opening at
tlio Monongahela House.
The July glass opening at the Monon
gahela Houbb has resulted in failure. About
25 agents have had their goods on exhi
bition at the hotel since the first of the
month, and one ot them said yesterday they
never made a poorer showing. This year
the glass jobbers met in New York and it
was understood they would stop here on
their way home. For some reason the buy
ers did not appear. It was either too hot
or they went home by another route.
The drummers do not take it as an evi
dence that business is depressed, but it
means that the boys will have to take to the
road and hustle-for orders. The jobbers are
expected to send in their orders by mail be
tween now and the fall. The stocks are low
and the middlemen are in need of goods.
As a rule the glass openings in Pittsburg
are very successful Jobbers find it to their
advantage to come here and see all the lines
of goods on exhibition. It is a difficult
matter for tfgents to show them properly on
the road.

Studebaker Bros. Manufacturing Com
pany's Patent Sprinkling Car
THOROUGHLY TESTED THIS WEEK
THE HIGHLY SATISFACTORY EXHI
BITION GIVEN ON THE flTTSBCKO,
AIXEGBEKY .AND MANCHESTER
STREET K All WAY.
Street railway managers and the genera
public as well have taken much interest in
the Studebaker Bros. Manufacturing Com
pany's patent sprinkler for street, railways,
which was given so satisfactory a trial oil
the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester
Street Eailway a few days since.
Why the street railway managers and the
general public are both interested is because
each will receive a big degree of benefit
from the invention. The sprinkler itself is
the invention . of Josiah F. Day, late of
Pittsburg and now Eastern representative
of the Studebaker Bros. Mfg. Co., 205
Canal street, New York City. It is
designed to lav the dust on all street rail
way tracks and can be adjusted to cars pro
pelled by any power. Its adoption by
street railways will not only save the com
panies thousands of dollars on motors and
other machinery, but will also prevent the
flying dust from annoying the passengers.
A" general idea of the sprinkler is given in
tbe cut below.
The tank has a capacity of 2,C00 gnilons,
a sufficient quantity to thoroughly sprinkle
six miles ot road while going at from 6 to
14 miles an hour. This saving of water is
due to the arrangement ot the apertures in
the cylinder outlets at either end of the car,
which are controlled at will by levers on
the platforms.
The apertures can be opened from one
sixteenth of an inch to three-quarters of an
inch in width and cau be regulated so a
foot or two outside of tho track can be
sprinkled, if desired. The output o'f the
water C3n also be regulated to suit the
speed. Another feature is that the
stream going straight down as it
does from the cylinder can wet the
track quite up to a crosswalk without
wetting the crossing itself. John B.
Haberle, the South Bend (Ind.), repre
sentative of the company, is the luventor
of this latter arrangement. The sprinkler
will be of invaluable service in the process
of sweeping the tracks, which is done daily
on all well regulated roads. The sweeping
machine can be attached and follow the car
behind, thus doing away with the usual
amount of dust. Guard boards are so
placed that the water keeps free from the
motors. Prominent officials of many of
Pittsburg's traction companies witnessed
the several trial trips given the sprinkler
and all expressed themselves as highly
pleased.
An illustration of the small amount of
water required to cover the ground may bo
given in the tact that the sprinkler in going
lrom the P., A. & M. car house to Woods'
Bun and back a distance of three miles
completely wet the track without lowering
the water in the tank but a foot. The ex
hibition in this city fully- demonstrates the
fact that the Studebaker Bros. Manufactur
ing Company's sprinkling car has come to
stay, and will fill a long felt want
This outcome has been prophesied from
the first by G. T. Greenwood, Manager of
the P., A. & M. Street Railway. In fact to
the many suggestions of this expert electri
cian and to his courteously allowing the use
of his tracks for the exhibitions is in no
Bmall degree due the satisfactory develop
ments of this sprinkling car's good qualities.
