ZAxe, Franklin County, Kan., March 14.—Tho Rocky-Mountain Jocust problem Is at this time a subject of consfderable futorest, not only to the people of Kansas, but to those who reside in States which have not been visited with theae peats. It Is nlways interesting and Instructive, o treating a subject of this kind, to review the history of the past, so that wo shall be able to understand the question more fully, When the locust visited this Stato in the fall of 1874, and deposited willions of egas, for the next year's crop, the peupic concluded that there wouid not be any conslderable mnount of dumoge to the epring crops of '35, Theso oplnfous were predicated on severul clrcumstances, which at lcast had the appear- ance of plausinility, The chief po'nt taken was, that, when the locust vame in the fall ot 1860, It depusited miilions avd wfllions of egrs iu roads, byways, fallow flells, and Jand desti- tuto of vezctation; but, when spring came, they hatched out only in favored locallties,—in aword, on gravelly knotls and in highly-eles vated places. They lelt abuut tho Jast of June, doing but trifiing damage. Another reason wus, that scientille writers advanced theories to alloy excitemont. One uf them told us that ho “would not be surprised i all the locusts would die out before they took wing.” An- other sald that “the locust would only lintch out on high, gravelly knolisy that all the egpusdeposited would be destroyed In the low Dottotn-landa,” Another said that * Thoy would be mostly destroyed by purasites, and that the climate was not congenial to their con- dition; they were not ns hardy as the orginal stock from the mountafus west of us.? Many of our local papers held out to the Jnat moment thnt there was no danger, that all was well; and, after b beeame visiblo that the young lo- custs had destroyed thousands of acres of spring crops, then they ndrmitted that some little daine ngge fu certain localities had occurred. Aftertha locust left fn June, and the farmers planted thelr corn for the second time,—the season be- ing the most favoruble ¢ver known o Kansas, ns the product amounted to90,000,000 of bushicls,— theu theso inodest papers ed that Kunsas would have beew totally rulied if they had not persisted in lylng during the locust “rald, and thus kept down the excitement, Lixperience Is the Jest schiool of {natruction.

Tou great tany the fact of Miss Heron's fivst mareluge to Heury Herbert Byrue, of Culifornls, was unkoown, and oun the ocen- elon of hisdeath the statement of the same and the theories advanced to explain their sepn- ratlon were ns starthng to many of hier friends as they were forelgn to thelr estluiate of her chargeter, A lengthy article appeared In tho Jerald some time ago, tuken from u San Frouclsco paper, wherein #the date of the secret marrlage of Heury Byrne and Matilda Ieron was stated, surinises given as to the cause of thelr sepal tion, the annuuncement made of Mr. Byme's denth, the amount of Pmperly he left, and that Mias h:run wus un her way to Caltfornia to contest bis will, begueatbing the bulk o! his tortune to Edward entier.” As. far as the fact snd date of Mr. Hyrne and Miss Heron's marringe wcnl’) the article in question wasa truthful one, but thut portion tarowing suspi- «lonon Mixs Heron's purity of churactcr asa cause of their acparation, and exhibitlug pre- tended knowledize ns to her movements alter his death, urlpl'lnntcll in the prolifie mind of sumie vonuy-o-tiiee mmore anxfous to apin out u rensationnd column thun preserve the guod using ol womun. ‘The true cause of the separation between Mr, Byrne and Matilda Heron Is vow published for tho flest time, Miss Heron made her debut in Ban Fruncisco Dee. 26, 1853, and, making a won- derful success, fame aud wealth were rupldly acquired, Among the host of friends her talents gathered around her none wers more as- eiduous in their attentious than Henry Byruo. and thelr fricndship having developed o s deep affection it wae an curnest wish of his that sho siould leave lier profession and becomo his wife, This Miss Heron did not want todo then, as wiready armngements had been cone pleted tor hier brotlier to escort her abroad, and she desired to dofer her marrlage untit siter her roturn und the fuifilliment of two theateleal cn- Kugsments sho had made—one In Pittsburg and one 4 New York City. At lust, moved by lifs frequent solivitutions, she consented to o secrot nurelnge and Locame Mr, Byrue's wile, botn deternining not to reveal their relation to each ather until after her return and the completion of her contracts to play Iu the two uitles uhove 1nontloned, With loving words and brizht hopes fur the future they parted, the wife, sccompanfed by her nieco and brother, to go fn one of her futher's vessels to Europe; the husband, with foud cx,mlmv{ to awalt her retum as the realizathm o1 a1l bis dreats of happlness.

The conversation turning upon women, mention was made of Miss Heron's re- markablo abllitics, when some. une suceringly olluded to her being an actress. At this Mr, ll‘ymu requested “that Miss Heron be spoken of with more respect, a8 ho would answ. her befng a lady." Ona of the party satirically remarked, * Probably she 1s us much of a lady s the original of this," taking a daguerreotype from his pocket and handing ft 1o his sext nefghbor at the table, who, In turn, passcd it to anuther, Fyery ong \ll)xm scelug It oxclaimed, * Mias fleran {7 Mr. Byene, upun looklog at ity sad, %My Uod! wheio afd you get this(' “ (Jentlemicn,” replied the owntrof the pleture, ¢ that fs not Miss Heron, but a Jicture of he slster, called Kate Ridgely, and the proprietress of ugllded palace of i fn New York, known a3 the ¢ House of Mlrrors.!? The effect of this statement upon Mr, Byrue may bo imagined, he belug an excessively proud man, ‘The frregularitics and uncertalnties of the nnlls was Mr, Byme's excuse for not writing about this atfairto Miss Ilcron, and he long kept brooding over the matter.

An Hour's Talk with n Dramatic Veteran, Iondon World, The hour {s 2 p. ., the scene Belgravin. Wrapped in a flannel dressiug-gown, made gorges ous by cascades of azure selvet, his head covered with aun embrofdered smoking-cap, hia blue cyes sparklfug with all thelr vl vivacity, the veteran comedian proceeda: ** This talk of the degener- acy of the drama fs all humbug.

The object of the theatru appears to be mlstaken. - It fune- tiun is to amuse, not to teach; people gu to the play for smuscient, not for {nstruction. They want to be entertained; tobe lifted out of them- sclves; to lauzh at the blumders or cry over the trials of others: 10 get rid, In shori, of thur own particular migery, Why do the critics {ne 15t on sumething at variance with the spirit of the time! Tho dramn of, any period is its prod- uct just as much as its srchite.ture, Palulhm. or nuele. Another fmportant consideration also overlocked by the crities 15 that the au euce of to-lay 18 not the nudicnee for which LCornelile and Racine wrote thetr musterpleces— Is not even the audlence of fifly yeurs ago. The nudience woas_composcd, until’ almost recent times, of people who had read Htule und travels cd less, and whu, whey they went to the theatre, could nether sce nor hear too much. The long tirudes of the old plays no doubt delighted ths peopto who llstened 1o thent; bt just look ata modern play-geer when he sces the two chalrs placed side by elde, and you commence: *Six- ceh years have now clapsed ! lle s stricken, us it were, with o great sorrow, and bows his headin sient wretchedness.
