Tux Chicago Time of last Fndiy sum
marizes the recent reports of the appear
ance of the army wcrrn T.i follows : " The
territory in this State which has thus tar
been ravged includes the counties of Knox,
Woodford, Liflugslon, McLean, Iroquois
mod La Salle a territory just north of the
center ot the Stale and extending eastward
to the eastern boundary. In Michigan the
worm bas descended upon the fertile Crops
of Calhoun and Berrien coutties, and in
jo rue localities it has done the usual serious
damage. The report copies from Battle
Creek that whenever it strikes a field or a
tree it strips every green blade and leaf uo
11 the trees have beeu left in places as de
void of verdure as a hoop-skirt. In Wis
consin the depredations thus far have been
confined It the localities about Watertowu
snd Fux Lake, with much the same results
as noted elsewhere. It is staled from Fox
Lake that the depredations are confined to
the fields that were not sown With salt's. In
Iowa and Southern Minnesota the wheat and
barley have been o injured by the weather
and the chinch br.gt that they w ill be liiu.il
more than halt a crop. Reports ot depre
dations come from AlacGregor and Wash
ington, Iowa, but at the latter place they are
not serious. The worms are doing the
most damage when the weather is warm.
They are not noticed to migrate. The above
Includes alt the territory visited thus far, so
far as the reports show". No deductions
can be made as to the worm's next place of
appearance. A special to the ftoinj Jour
nal from Pes Moinea says : " The army
worm is making terrible havoc in the oat
fields of Ioa. Harvesting of small grain
has begun in some localities, and in large
areas it will tall short of the seed planted."
Feiscis Hower, living in Fermanagh
township, has a protege that was placed in
bis care by the Court several years ago.
The lad is aged about 15 years. Some six
weeks ago the boy went to Big Run to fish.
While engaged at that sport he was bare
footed, and by a misdirected step put bis
lull loot down on a snag on a pine log that
lay by the side of the creek. The snag en
tered the sole of the foot under the instep.
The boy drew it out. or drew out a portion
of it, seemingly all of it, and went home to
Mr. Bower's. The wound became painful
and sore. Dr. Banks was called, bat all
skill failed tb cure er heal the wound.
Finally the doctor concluded that there
must yet be a portion of the snag in the
foot, but to all outside appearance, and ex
amination, there was no such revelation.
However, Mr. Hower was requested to bring
the biv to the Doctor'a office here in town.
Laj. fiturday the lad was brought to the
Doctor's drug store, and placed on a table
and put nnder the influence of ether. There
were present Doctor Banks, Crawford, Ar
nold and Sandoe. Dr. Banks administered
the ether. Dr. Crawford took tLe knife
and made the necessary incisions in the
sole of the foot for a thorough examination.
It was but the work of a moment to dis
cover a foreign substance in the foot, and
once found it took but a moment mo'fe to
remove it. When removed it revealed it
self to be a piece of pine one inch and a
quarter in length and of the thickness of a
common lead pencil. When the boy jumped
on the snag on the log along the creek, the
tipper part of the snag encountered the bono
in the instep of the foot, broke off and was
forced close along the bone parallel with
the foot. When the boy drew out the re
mainder of the snag he could not know
that a portion of the snag bad been forced
lengthwise alone the bone on the nolo of
Ihe foot, and no probing of the wound
tould discover the piece of pine, for it had
twe deflected at a right angle when it en
countered the bone of the sole of the foot.
At last accounts the wound was doing as
well as could be expected of it.

which it was found is best told in a dis

ldth, as follows : District Attorney Cork
hill found yesterday the missing bullet
which was fired at the President and for
which there bas been so much search. It

around the streets repairing windows, Went
into the depot to get a ten dollar bill

of the pistol, aud immediately three pinea
of glass in bis box were shattered. He at
once rushed from the depot, thinking it was
no place for safety. On Satuidar be was
cleaning out hia box aud found the bill in
his putty, and was narrating the fact to bis
friends, wben one of them told him that it
was fired at the time tbe President waa shot,
aid took him to the District Attorney's of
fice, where he gave his statement, and gave
np the ball. He thinks it was the first shot
that broke th'- glasj, but says they were so
close together that be had not time to get
away. His position counnm the statement
of Senur Ca.uache, the Venezuelan Minis
ter, as to the exact position of the assassin
at the time of the firing of the shots.

Moist, of Walker township, and a grandson
of Rer. Daid Moist, who lives near this
borough, was knocked off a car by a bridge
that crosses the railroad at a poiut between1
Altoona and Tyrone. Mr. Moist was a

lantern was found at the Mde of the rail
road, at the bridge just designated, but his
bod , all mangled, was found at a point
some distance on this side of the bridge,
near Elizabeth Furnace. It is conjectured
that he was sitting on the top of a car,
and that when the bridge struck him
be fell on the bumper and was carried
a short distance before be fell to the
track. Hia remains were brought to this
place and thence tuL'en to the Seceder grave
yard adjoining Michael Sieber's farm in
Walker township, and there interred on

The decorative days have come, the gayest

But, not at all content with this, she doco

Her taste for decorative art leads ber to paint

Spread herself w ith diligence upon a satin

But when she'll tax her energies the great
est, we suppose.
Is wben she nndertade the task of picking
out her clothes.
Not o with man, the gentle beast, whose
instincts are much higher,
Of things which simply please the eye his
fancy will soon lire ;
And with hia mind above such things nnto
the cup he goes, .
And his only decoration is tbe painting cf

ified tbe discovery of another comet, in tbe

This new cornet is apparently coming direct

bo seen with a good opera glass. It is quite
remarkable that it should be in just the spot
where tbe preseut la'ge comet was first seen
by tbe naked eye in this latitude, and it shows
that the two bodies must bave crossed each
other's paths. This makes the fourth comet
discovered within ten weeks, a circum

Scbaeberle bas duly filed his application for
tbe Warner prize of (200, and as yet he is

Tub Huntingdon Journal cf last ueu lr '
says: Ou Wednesday night, the I3ia int.,
the residence of John M. Leech, Esq., at
Grayaville, this county, was entered and
robbed of $15.00. The burglar entered the
house through an outside cellar door, which
was left unlocked on the night in question.
Alter ransacking the drawers of a book
case in a lower roojn, throwing the old let
ters and papers promiscuously over the
floor, the thief made his war up stairs and
entered the bed chamber occupied by Ihe
'Squire and hia wife, and at once pry.:ied
ed to business. On retiring to bed Mr.
Leech had laid bia watch and purse, con
taining several dollars, on the top of a bu
reau in the room, en which stood a st-;;r
box containing over J17.00. The thief
rifled the box and took $15.00, but a $-'.50
gold piece and some pennies that it con
tained must huve escaped his vision, as
these were not taken. He left the watch,
but gobbled tbe purse. Miss Leech noticed
a man coming out of the room occupied by
ber Barents, and lliiuking that it Was ber
fiitLer Called to her mother and inquired if
ber father had gone down stairs. This
frightened the thief, and in bis hasty exit
he dropped the purse in the hall where it
was found, with its contents intact, by tho
family. There was a considerable sum of
tnoney in the house, col.ected by the
'Squire for c!her parties, which escr-,c- the
fligers of the midnight prowler. The
'Squire writes us that he has no idea who
the thief is, but is of the opiuion that he is
no stranger in that neighborhood.

By way of experiment, Mason Irwin
poled a skirT through a growth of weeds
that grew in the river a'ong the shore ofj
the Island. Tha object was to observe the !
movemeut of bus, that frequent tbe weedy !
place. The poling of the skin" creatid
great consternation among the bSh. Ther
hastened to leave the disturbed place
fish were not content to swim speedily
but in their hurry many leaped out of the
water. Two bass lauded iu tbe boat, two
leaped clear over the boat, two struck the '
side of the skiff and fell back into ihe river, !
1
and many leaped past the ends of the bjat.
