Whitman Presides President and Presents the Diplomas—The Grad- uates, Prizes and the Orators. The Columbian Academy of Columbian University last evening sent forth as graduates five young men, amid surround- ings that were in every way ideal. Proud parents and admiring friends constituted an audience that taxed the capacity of Metzerott Hall, and the scene was as pic- turesque as could be desired. The stage was a mass of foliage, with blossoming plants lining the outer edge and large palms rising high in the rear. Flags and bunting galore had been used for decorative purposes, with the national colors as a background. Suspended from the balcony were huge roseites and streamers crossed to and fro, with the blue and gold of Co- lumbian predominant. The light summer dresses of the many young ladies in the au- dience added to the sing effect, and all in all, the seventy-fitth annual commenc: ment of the Columbian Academy was pretiy in every respect as any in the hi tory of the university. As the audience was being se chesira rendered several then to the strains of “The Columbian University March,” composed by Thatcher Clark of the Columbian College, the grad ates, undergraduateg and the faculty of the academy, together with President Whit- man and Rev.

How Common Tar May Pe Used to Get Rid of the Crawiers. To Editor of The E ing Sta: Fifty years ago, when I was a boy, the trees in my native town were infested and sometimes destroyed by the caterpillars. An old farmer suggested a remedy was successful when applted. My father followed the suggestion on the fine tr en his grounds and also many of the cit zens’. The trunks of the trees were daubed with a circle of common tar, about a foot wide, and six or seven feet from the ground. The caterpillars would crawl up the trunk and then get stuck in the circle ot tar, and die like flies on fly-sticking pa- per. I have seen these tar daubs filled wit! hundreds of dead caterpillars, When the were full, more tar would be daubed ov them to catch a new batch, and so on. Not one of the neighbors were injured in the slightest, while hundreds of other trees | which had no tar on them were stripp Sometimes common coal tar would be u and the smell of it would drive the cater- pillars back to the ground. One single bar- rel of tar is enough to daub several hun- dred trees, according to the size. They nad | tried whitewash, but In a few days it had | no effect and the caterpillars would crawl over it. I have seen plenty of whitewas! ed trees in this clty stripped. CUMMON SENSE. ee Business High School Entertainment.
