CITY AND DISTRICT. POINTERS. If you want to Buy Anything,— Advertise the fact in The Evewng Star, THE GREAT TREE PEST. Myrtads of Caterpillars Already Begin- ning Their Destructive Work. 3B THERE ANY WAY TO SAVE THE GREENERY IN THE PARKS AND STREETS FROM THEIR RAY- 4GES?—WHAT MR. SMITH OF THE BOTANICAL GARDEN SAYS—THE ENGLISH SPARROW. Just at this season every year the silver-col- ored webs of the caterpiller begin to appear in the tree tops. At first they are no larger than ® man’s hand, but the inhabitants are industri- ous, and every day the webs grow larger and larger until, if some measures are not taken to arrest their progress, they will, in time, cover the whole tree, not a leaf being allowed to es- cape the ravages of the destructive army of ‘worms. They will not desert their prey until every drop of the life-giving sap has been taken away from it, and then they depart for greener fields, leaving behind them the once beautiful tree a complete wreck. ‘PME PESTS BEGINNING THEIR WORK ALREADY. To any one who has observed the coming of these pests since Washington became the great park that it is it begins to look as if there was te be more trouble this season than ever Never so early in the summer have they put im an appearance in such numbers. ‘They arejshowing up everywhere—over every tree and plant, 1g down one’s neck as he saunters along, and making themselves gen- erally offensive and conspicuous, Not only is the fozzy little catterpillar with the black nose and yellow feelers here, but his soft smoothed- skinned brother has put in an appearance. ‘he latter is exceedingly repulsive, and. more- over, he is us. He has « little beg of venom ci about him. and when he feels he uses it with good effect. BEAUTIFUL BUT INEFFECTIVE THEORIES, Various have been the methods employed, intended to get rid, once ahd forever, of these tree pests, but nothing has yet been discovered that seems to lessen their ravages to any great extent. Entomologists, florists, chemists, all have their ideas as to what should be a sure eure. Their theories sound very well; they get Mr. Caterpillar just where they want him, jast where he cannot escape, but he gets there just the same when the season comes around and, figuratively, laughs at his would-be destroyers. Some years ago a writer made the discovery that the trees in England did not suffer so much from the ravages of the caterpillar as ‘those in this country, and ascribed this fact to the little sparrow with which that country is infested. The caterpillars were unusu- ally numerous that season, and imme- distely a hue and cry was raised by the people, who vociferously demanded that a cargo of the birds be imported. In due time it arrived, and the sparrows were released in the parks of the various cities throughout the country. Much was expected. and they gave much. They proved to be the most prolific members of the bird world, and before many years had =. they had epread all over the country. ‘he sparrow proved himself dis- tinetive a city bird, a denizen of house eaves and queer nooks and crannies. People have never yet decided whether his coming was a blessing or a curse. VIEWS OF AN EXPERT. Superintendent Smith of the Botanical gar- Gen is an authority on all such matters as those above referred to. He has made a life-long study of trees, birds, and flowers and has read almost everything that has been written on the subject. But he did not stop there. To this great “store of information he has added his own observations and thoughts, and, in conse- quence, is perhaps as weil qualitied as any mau in the country to speak ou these subjects intelligently. As been said many a time before.” said Mr. Smith toa Srar reporter, “the caterpillar is the greatest enemy ef the tree, and there is nothing that does so much to mar its beauty and destroy its vitality as that same little in- consequent worm. This is the season they be- gin to appear, and the other day I saw them in the trees for the firsttime. They are the great pest, the great plague of the tree world.” NO ENTIRELY SUCCESSFUL REMEDY. “Is there no remedy?” asked the reporter. “The worst of itall is that there isno en- tirely successful remedy,” was the reply. “Paris does some good. I believe, but there are objections to its use, and very serious ones. Its dangerous in the first place, bein; virulent poison, and it is very expensive an: difficult to use.” “What seems to be the trouble as to a remedy?” ventured the T. “Weil, the little pest is d to get at, and when you get at him he is hard to kill. This is really not the proper time to do this work, though much can be done even after he has a start. e winter is the time to wage war on him. The little crevices in the bark of the trees are where the eggs are laid. Here quietly all winter they remain. The warm weather hatches them out and they issue forth by millions, swarming over the trees, building their nests in the tops and spinning their silken threads from limb to limb. They grow vei rapidly, spreading in every direction and spoil- ing the resh greenery, honey-combing the ves. 4 GOOD WORD FOR THE ENGLISH SPARROW. “T still maintain,” continued Mr. Smith, “despite the ery that has been raised against the English sparrow, that he is the greatest enemy of the worm, and. while be has not Proved the success that he was expected to | = nae mot been tn @ failure. it is a question, however, people whether the good he does in clearing 3s not more than counterbalanced by the harm he does to other things. Contrary to the gen- eral idea, it is in winter that he does his work as an eradicator of the caterpillar. He has to be forced to his work. Nothing is too good for him and when the good things of the earth are scattered all about be does not neglect them and eat the caterpillars. He lives on the fat of the land in summer, but when the chill blasts of winter come he has to take what he can get aud work pretty hard for that. When the is covered with snow the worms are hibernating in the interstices of the tree and he pecks away, destroying many of them.” FIRE 48 AN ERADICATOR. “Have you any suggestions as to the best method of fighting the pests at this season,” reporter. “Yes,” was his answer. s good deal of good may even now be done. The housekeeper may supplement the work of the parking commission of the branches where the nests fins sot Seale eae es ea em. it is true, w: but little good, but ev ar de- us The parki e ‘ing com- Ponting action in ilar, and as move in by cutti some extent, and Kemler, the first murderer sentenced to die by ei , against Chas.

THE PHILADELPHIA BOARD OF TRADE ADDRESSED BY SECRETARY ANDERSON OF THE NATIONAL PROMOTION BOARD—SOLID BUSINESS MEX OF TRE QUAKER CITY APPROVE MIs PLANS. Philadelphia's representative business men gabatch ty tov bees ot adesiaale ae afternoon and listened to an explanation of the object and details of the proposed celebration in this city of the discovery of America, Alex- ander D, Anderson, secretary of the board of Promotion of the Quadri-Centennial, wae the orator. Those present were: Frederick Fraley, Charles Heber Clark, C. J. Hurrah, E. K. Ste- venson, W. R. Tucker, John L. Hough, Jerome Carty, W. E. Lockwood, W. W. Harkness, Rich- ard Wood, Joel Cook, W. Morrison Coates,Wm. Massey, B. 8. Janney, jr., B. W. Andrews, John McLaughlin and William Sellers. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports the pro- ceedings as follows: President Fraley introduced Mr. Anderson with the simple statement that the proposed celebration might prove to be the opening of trade corto the C d States and Central and South America aud might also be the means of promoting commerce with the British provinces of North America, Then er prer ry Anderson, in » on con- versational style, began explaining the move- ment. He oid The two leading features of the Three Americas exposition, to be held at the national capital in 1892, are: First, the historical, to commemorate the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus. Second, the som- mercial, to ral aay an American hemi- spherical policy based upon more intimate commercial relations between the nineteen sister nations of the Three Americas, THEY NEED OUR Goons, On the continent south of the United States are fifteen Spanish-American republics, the Portuguese-American empire of Brazil and four European colonies. They have a total population of 40,000,000 consumers and an area of about 8,000,000 square miles, or more than double that of the United States. In climate, resources, products, supply and demand they are the reverse and complement of the United States. Commercial exchanges with such countries are, therefore, in accordance with sound laws of trade and political economy. ‘The total annual foreign commerce of these various American sister nations is in round numbers $1,000,000,000 in value. Their annual Lax sage in round numbers §500,000,000 in value, of which the United States supplies but about $80,000,000, or one-sixth part, the lion's share being monopolized by our commercial rivals, England, Germany and France. This is indeed an astonishing state of affairs which de- mands the immediate attention of the boards of trade and statesmen of this country. In this connection it is gratifying to observe that the statesmen of Pennsylvania are on record on this subject. IMPORTANCE OF THE MOVEMENT. The transcendent importance of this exposi- tion movement may also be seen by a reference to the statistics of the enormous amount of | money annually spent by Americans in Europe. According to an official estimate submitted to the Department of State ten years ago by one of our consuls in Germany, the annual average taken to Europe for purposes of travel. pleas ure, art, education, &c., was $106,740,600 in gold. Itis, I think, safe to assert that during the present year, owing to the Paris exposition and the unprecedented exodus of Americans to Europe, the amount drawn from this country will be nearly $200,000,000. Now. why not reverse the situation by a great exposition at our own national capital, making it the Paris of America in beauty and attrac- tions, the Berlin of America in educational ad- es, and the Rome of America in art, thereby keeping this enormous sum of money at home and attracting a similar amount from the outside world. This is one of the objects of the coming Three Americas exposition at Washington, and is, therefore, a movement which appeals to American self-interest as well as national pride. There is another consideration which should not be overlooked. For fifteen years or more Congress has appropriated liberally for exposi- tions in the capitals and leading cities of Europe. During the past year it appropriated $250,000 for the Paris exposition, $20,000 for Brussels, $25,000 for Barcelona and $50,000 for Melbourne. While this action was, in itself, commendable and useful in stimulating foreign commerce, it should be counterbalanced by an exposition at our own capital in 1892. Failure to doso is, in my opinion, a di tion against America. RAISING THE MONEY. After reviewing the plan and scope of the ex- positio. movement, Mr. ‘Anderson touched on the financial side of the matter. He said that at the next session of Congress a bill will be offered for an appropropriation of 5,000,000 by the United States, leaving the rest to be sup- plied by the eighteen other American nations, He declared that the moment the United States takes the initiative the several sister na- tions of the north, Central and South America, together with Italy aud Spain, of the old world, so inseparably connected with the history of Columbus, will liberally respond. After dwell- ing on the advantages of Washington as the = of the exposition, the speaker concluded Us: The next meeting of the national board of romotion, composed of the governors, mayors, Uficers, aud committees of boards of trade and others, will be at Washington on the 23d of October to confer about this movement and also to meet the delegates from the nineteen American nations, who will then be there at the Three Americas commercial congress. We particularly desire that every commercial or- ganization of your city be represented on that Occasion by a committee of five, due notice of which meeting will be sent hereafter. We also desire that your delegation come headed by the governor of your great and progressive manufacturing state and the mayor of your great and patriotic city. SPEECHES FAVORING THE PROJECT were made by Secretary Charles Heber Clark of the Manufacturers’ club, C. J. Harrah, W. E. Lockwood and Jerome Carty. After it had been decided to send a committee of five, rep- resenting Philadelphia's commercial interests, to the meeting of the board of promotion at bone ae next October, the meeting ad-- journ —+00.

Y., yester- day afternoon, The caused the Cayudatta creek to become a raging torrent, which soon burst its bounds. Two dams gave way, being unable to stand the enormous Pressure. On swept the torrent, taking every- thing with it—the several skin factorics along its banks, valued at many hundreds of dollars, A number of buildings in the vicinity were also swept away. The Fonda and Johnstown rail- roads lose seven or eight bridges. On one of the bridges crossing the creek were some thirty or forty people viewing the flood. The torrent, with increased power, took the bridge from the foundations, hurling the people into the seething flood beneath. At this writing it is impossible to ascertain the number saved, but it is be- Meved that many of those on the bridge idg. ily away, taking with ee ae fh wires, oo that t's almost impossible to ola communication between Fonda and the surrounding towns. The elec- tric light works, a short distance from Johns- stown, were d and the town was without it. Information received here from Fonda is to the effect that the water is three feet deep in some streets. A DISASTROUS CLOUD-BURST. A cloud-burst washed away the Central rail- Toad tracks between Akin and Tribes’ Hill sta~ tions, about five miles west of Amsterdam, N. X., yesterday afternoon, causing # delay to all trains, The wreck of the freight train, which blocked all four tracks in the morning, had just been cleared and delayed trains began to move east and west, when some of them were caught by this new mishap and a second blockade oc- curred, more serious than the first. Some of the trains hurrying to make up lost time nar- rowly escaped the cloud-burst, but all did es- cape. One house was partially washed away, but no lives have been lost, . £ > THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1889.

Im all that relates to the composh ton of a Orst-class journal, devoted to news, bush nese, family and focal afisirs, it takes rank with the very best in the world, and in the special quab ities mamed tt ts not surpassed by any. With alert, intelligent and impartial special correspond ents at all centers of interest, by the free use of the telegraph, and with the superior mechanical | tecilities with which its office is equipped, it covers | the whole Seid of news, and is able to presente Fefiex of the entire civilized work each day up the very momentof going to press. In these re | Spects THE Stak is absolutely without a rival, and fearlessly challenges comparison, within range of the territory it occupies. In its treatment of public affairs it is impartial ‘and sims to be fair and just to all taithsand inter ests, and it is absolutely independent, in the high est and broadest sense of the term. In the publi- | cation of news tt records facts without bias or color, and in the expression of editorial opinion it | {8 as steady and firm in advocating and promoting only what it believes to be right, as it is persistent in condemning and opposing what it believes to be Wrong. It is, in brief, wholly untrammeled by any other interest or consideration than that of serving the public, and securing as far as possible the wel- fare of the family circle, and of society as a whole. With these general objects in view, what Tar STAR specially concerns itself with, and that to Which It gives its best efforts, may be briefly de- scribed as THE INTERESTS OF WASHINGTON AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. To these the paper has been unswervingly devoted since its present management assumed its direction, and this policy will characterize the future career of the paper as prominently as it bas marked ite past history. 48 AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM. ‘The EVENING STAR claims to be, and can com | Gusively establish that it ts, che best looul advertise | tag medium tn the world’ NO OTHER PAPER PRINTED CIRCULATES SO MANY COPIES IN THE CITT OF ITs PUBLICATION, IX PROPORTION TO POPULATION. It ie hardly too much to say that it is read by the mem- bers of every family in the District of Columbia.

There only re | Mains to be added on this head, as an indication Of the esteem in which the paper is held by the Dusiness public, which best understands its own interests im this respect, that, both in the number . Of subscribers and of new advertisements printed, each year in the history ot the paper shows «lange increase over its predecessor. For example, during | the frst nine months of the present year the average dally circulation of the paper | hes been 26,651 copies, and the whole number of new advertisements printed 39,643, | against an everage daily circulation of 25,427 copies and 35,506 new advertisements dur ing the corresponding period in 1887. In short, | THE STAR has never taken a backward step, and ite conductors are determined that it pever sball sake one.
