Many foll on_ the deck of tho vessel in wiite T was sailing. At another time, vhen crossing the Himalayas, overlook ing the valley of the Sutledge, T rem od a tremulous appearance in - the atmos phere, as of & mirago. On further inves. timntion, 1 ascertained that this strange quivering was produced by the glancing r gt on the myvind wings of a great swarm of locusts which were passingover che valley like a cloud. But those glimpses of the locust hosts vere as nothing compared with the vast flights described by brother Roualeyn, ache interor of Soath Afies. Ho was standing in the middle of an immens. plain when he ftirst noticed their ap- proach. On they came, liko a snow- storm, flying slow and steady, abeut 100 yards from the ground. He stood look- ing at them until the air was darkened vith their masses, while the plain on which he stood became densely covered with them. Far as the eye could reach- wust, west, north, south-—they st in one unbroken cloud, and more than w hour elapsed bofore their devastating legions had swept by. Not lond afterward he fell in with anotherswarm, He was marching through v heavy sandy country of boundless leve plains, covered with rank yellow grass, varied with detached elunips of thorny mimosas, He camo upon & swarm of locusts which had alighted, to rest for the night on the sund bushes. They lay 80 thick that they covered the large bushes, just as a swarm of young bo covers the branch on which it pitches. He could easily have collected enough to fill all his large wagons, the piercing cold of night, with white hoav frost, having rendered them unable to take wing until the sun should restore their powe Hemet a party of natives cacrying heavy burdens of them on their s, wnd his hungry dogs made a fine foeast of those they captured for themselves. Having soine_dificulty at that time in procuring suflicient food for all his dogs, this locust-swarm proved a most valuable addition to the larder. He took a lary vlanket and spread it under a bush, the branches of which were bent to the sround with the mass of locusts which covered it, and, having shaken the bush, chere fell on the blanket more locusts than he could possibly carry. Theso he roasted for himself, his servants, and his logs. He found’ that they wer prized by the natives of South A afferding fattening and wholesome food o man, birds, and all sorts of beasts cows and hovses, lions, jackals, hyenas, wtelopes, elephants, ote., devour ‘them. The following morning, soon after sun- vise, he looked back, and saw the locusts stretehing to the west in vast clouds re sembling smoke; but soon afterward the wind, veering round, brought them back toward him, and they flew over his head, setually darkening the sun for aconide able period. Liqually wonderful is the account of a locust invasion of Syria, as related by Dr. Wiliiam Thompson, He tells how, i theearly spring, a flying squadron— the pioneers of “the vast army—passed wer the land, leaving it thickly sown with their eggs, lying in little masses, cemented together, scattered all over tields, plain and desert ground, This done, the harbingers of woe vanished; but within a couple of months the very dust seemed to awaken to live and to ep. Soon these infititesimal moving atoms developed into minute grasshop. pers, who began their destructive exist- , all moving forward in one geners direction, a creeping, jumping mass of living particles, ‘hompsondescribes his first glimpse of this phenomenon. He was ridingnear Fuliyeh, when it struck him that the side of a hill had a peculiar appearance, Rid ing up to it, to his amazement the whole surfuce becam tated, and began to roll downward, ~His horse was so fright- ened that lie had to dismount, Then he perceived that this animated dust was composcd of myriads of minute locusts, | fi0 young that they could not even jump; but in their iufantile alarn they rolled over and over, produding an eflect like the movement of fluid mortar, On another occasion ho rode through o district where tho work of extirpation was going on. It was near the plain of Acre, and a swarm of locusts had over- run the whole region. ‘The governor of | Kabul had summoned every man, women and child in the neighborhood to lend their aid in the common cause, The foe had not yet grown their wings, and, be- ing the bushes and shouting, in order to frighten the insect host and drive them toward an isolnted hill covered with diy grass. Soon the hill became black with the countless myriads which thronged it. Then the grass was set on fire in ditterent places, and the flames, fanned by a strong brooze, soon apread over the whole hill, filling the air with an over. powering swell of roast locust. The same operation was performed at many differ« ent points in the neighborhood, with very excoilont results, — e — The most popular nervine tonic in the worll is Dr. Kichmond's Samaritan Nervine, 81.60 “Fits rendered my daughter deaf, dumb and paralyzed, Samaritan Ney- vime cured her.” Peter Ross, Spring- water, Wis, At Druggists, — Ldout. Schwa ka as a Hunter, Musk-Ox The leader of pedition of 1870 the overland arctic ex saeribes, in the Suy tember Century, ‘A Musk-Ox Hunt" with the md of numerous illustrations, Ho says of their first chase aftor the fme ireat foars were entertained by the experienced hunters that the musk sxen had heard our approach, and were probably ‘doing their level best' to es cape. Tho sledges were immediately stopped ond the dogs rapidly unhitched from them, from onoe to three or four bo ing given to eash of the eleven men and boys, white or native, that were present who, taking their harnesses in their loft hands or tying them in slip noosesaround their watsis, started withoat detay upon the trail, leaving the two sledges and a fow of the poorer dogs in charge of the Tunuit women, who had come along for that purpose, and who would follow the trail as soon as fiving was heard, The dogs, many of thom old musk.-ox hunt- s, and with appotitos doubly sharp- ened by hard work and a constantly di- minishing ration, tugged like mad at their seal-skin harness lines, as thoy half bur- ied their eager noses in the tumbled snow of the trail, and hurried their attached human being along at a flying rate that threatened a broken limb or neck at each of tho rough gorges and juttmg preci- pices of the broken, stony lull-land, whero the exciting chase was going on, The rapidity with which an agilo native hunter can run when thus attached to two or threo excited dogs is astonishing. Whenover a steop valley was encountered the Eskimos would slide down on their feet o sitting posture, throwing the loose snow to their sides like eseaping steam from a hissing locomotive, until the bottom was reached, when, quick as thought, they would throw themselves at full length upon the snow, and the wild, excited hrutes would dray them up the other sido, whore, regaining their foct, they would run on atw constantly acce erating gait, their guns in the meantime being held in the right hand or tightly lashed upon the back “Wo had hardiy gone a wmile in this harum-scarum chase hefore it became evident that the musk-oxen were but u short distanco ahead on the keen run, and the foremost hunters began loosening their dogs to bring the oxen to bay as soon as possible; and then, for the tivs: time, theso intelligent creatures gave tongue in deep, long baying, as they sho forward like arrows, and disappeared over the erests of the hills amidst o perfect bewilderment of flying snow and tluttering harness traces.” The discord of shouts and howlings told us plainly that some of the animals had been broughi to bay not far distant, and we soon heard apid series of shavp reports from the breech-loaders and magazine wuns ol the advance hunters, We white men avrived just in time to see the final struggle. © Tho oxen presented n mnost tormidable-looking appear mee, with theirrumps firmly wedged to ! complete cirelo of swaying horn presented to the front, with great blood shot eyeballs glaring liko red-hot shot amidst the escaping steam from their panting nostrils, and pawing and plu g at the eircle of furious dogs th.f compassed them. The rapid blazing of magazi ms right in their fac 80 close, often, as to burn their long, shy guy hair—added to the striking scene. Woo to the o lous dog that was unlucky enongh to get his harness line under the hoofs of a cl g and infuriated musk- ox; for they will follow up a leash along tho ground with a rapidity and certainty that would do eredit to a tight-rope per former and cither paw the poor creature to death or fling him high in the air with their horns.” she Was Speakiug to the Girl, rck Tribune . As the ticket agent at Mandan stood ar his post yesterday afternoon smmpling the various styles of breath that came at him through the small window a most beanti ful lady came up and asked for a ticket to Bismarck, He stamped it and laid it down, and the lady fumbled in her purse for the change. All at once sho ex claimed potulant voice: “Darling, it patient? What does my pe e u b ut?" The agent turned to red” that his ears fairly blazed, and stammered out: “Madain, I--1—1-— assne you that—there is no hurry atall. Take your (ahem)—take your ti-time, madum !’ With a look that froze the blood in s veins and made him feel as if icicles were wging all over his body, sho replied ! 1 was speaking to my little gir);” and peeping through the ticke window he saw & wee bit of & cherub tug- ging at the lady's dress, When she had gone he sank down in a chair as pale s W corpse, and told Conductor Richards that if his family wero better provided for he didn't think he'd care to live an hour longer. —— The Game Beaso The open season for prairie shicken shooting began on the 16th in nine d f- ferent states and territories.
