SWITHiN'S DAY 18 FAIR No Danger of Deluge According to Venerable Tradition IIB ti stisf MILITARY ANTS. African Insects Adopt Scientific Conformation on tbe March. A recently returned missionary family from the Gulf of Guinea, on the African coast, gave the writer a description of a curiously interesting species of large black ants, called Drivers, which infest that section of the world and generally bring annoyance and destruction in their bath. The Drivers have, however, a mission to perform in the extermination of every form of small vermin, which makes the life of the residents upon coast and inland in that section of the world anything but a joy forever. Their approach is heralded by the tiny enois of the scampering of legions of large black roaches which are at once the.

pest of the householder and the favorite prey of these ants. The Drivers always arrive at night MRS.

Col. James M. Ouffey has decided to make no effort to secure the chairmanship of the Ltemocratic committee. Some his closest friends in Pitsburg Bald today that he has reached a decision not to take the chairmanship, even If he should be urged to do so The friends of Col. Ouffey have been opposed all along to him assuming the burden of managing the national com-paien.

lie has informed them they need have no further concern on that point. It has ben generally understood for some time that Col. Ouffey was In a position to demand the chairmanship If he wanted it. Col. Ouffey will leave with hla family for Springs tomorrow.

He said there was no trutli in a story circulated lere today that a conference of national leaders with Henry O. Iavis, candidate for vice president, will take place in Bedford in a few days. It is quire possible that Col. Ouffey will see Ex-Senator Davis at Bedford, but this, even, is not certain. Nothing could be learned regarding the date for the big eastern conference and meeting of the national committee in New York.

W. J. P.rennen and County Commissioner James A. Clark said this morning that the I aemocratic county convention will probably not be reconvened until late in August to nominate candidates for county cftic.es and congress. It is supposed that the committees of the legislative district conventions, that will till up the legislative tickets, will meet at the same time.

There is little talk among the remo-crats regarding candidates and very few-men are'showing a disposition to so into a futile contest. There is some discussion of leorge C. Lewis for congress in the Thirty-first district, James K. O'Donnell in the Thirty-first district and F. P.

lams in the Thirty-second district. Kx-Senator Charles A. Muehlbronner, secretary of the Republican county committee, returned this morning from a business trip uirough Indiana, the State of Sena tor Charles W. Fairbanks, the Republican candidate for vice president. "I was surprised," Secretary Muehlbronner said, "over the popularity of Senator Fairbanks in hjs home State.

F.verybody seems to be for him. even the Democrats. There is no question but that the Republican ticket will have a big majority in Indiana." The officers of the Republican county committee, the legislative district associations and the city committees of Pittsburg. Allegheny and McKeesport are in conference this afternoon at the party headquarters, Grant and Diamond streets. The work of perfecting the precinct organizations is being mopped out for one thintr, and other matters of interest to the party are being considered.

County Chairman Thomas J. Ford was anxious to hove Senator P.C. Knox attend the meeting, but said there was considerable doubt Senator Knox's engagements permitting him to be 413-415 OHIO MA 1313-1315 Carson S. S. Dry Goods, Notions, Ladies' Furnishings, Ladies Suits, Millinery, Etc.

We will cheerfully give Street Car Stamps in exchange for our own Yellow Stamps. since, as the missionaries wittily assert, they prefer darkness ratner than "lieht because their deeds are evil. Marching in regular phalanx from four to six inches across, they are as peifectly drilled as a regiment of soldiers. From a half to an inch and a half in length, the largest invariably march ahead to make the attack and bear the brunt of tne cattle should there be openly expressed opposition to their arrival. Instead of traveling along the roadway they invariably select for protection the grass running When it becomes absolutely necessary to cross the road in order to reach a desired destination the large, strong ones, advancing with military precision, closely interlock by means of their sharp nippers and themselves with a curious upward movement, form an arch bridge spanning the road.

The younger and smaller ones, instead of crossing over, for greater security pass under and patiently await on the other side the disintegration of their leaders, who then resume the line of march. Arriving at the house, it is expedient for the human resident temporarily to vacate, since only too soon it otherwise becomes a physical impossibility to remain. For the householder to show fight to the Drivers and endeavor to smoke or oust them from the house is to insure countless vicious bites from the aits. which, crawl ing over the walls and ceilings, drop down all over the rash one, in addition to beginning from the ground floor and proceeding from the feet upward to nip their vicious way until one is only too thankful to flee at any price and be rid of this cargo of stinging, biting pests. To vacate at once and give the houso over entirely to them Is to have them go over it with great thorougnness, devouring every roach and vermin for which the frame and bamboo walls form favorite residence.

This according to the dimensions of the place, occupies the invading army from three to four hours, at the end of which time, with the same military precision as on entering, they collect from all quarters for complete evacuation. The leaders arrive first in the room by which they have entered, and then, scurrying in hot haste, come th smaller ones, upon each of whom, in addition to assisting to devour the roaches, has devolved the care and protection of the eggs, which they invariably carry in their mouths. Back and forth in hurried conclave the leaders run, until the army is entirely-marshaled. The order then being given for departure, they go out as they entered. From the house they make intuitively for the chicken yard.

wTiere. should it be late and the chickens fast asleep on their perches, the Drivers simply bombard the place. Swarming from all quarters at once over the hapless chickens they fasten with their shap nippers into the flesh, which they devour with avidity. In the completion of this task they not only kill and eat the chickens, but consume the feathers as well, leaving the ground strewkn with neatly picked Ixines. Pigeons and especially squabs come in for the same fate, although the older pigeons stand the best chance of escape.

Climbing trees they ravage the nests of the birds, which, with fluttering and piteous cries, fly from them. When the invading army selects a. time for arrival in which their approach is still to be detected before the light entirely fades from the sky. the chickens show-brave fight, in devouring as many as possible of their attackers and endeav-ing to stamp off the Drivers crawling up their legs. Should there be meat In the family larder this is discovered and rapaciously eaten by the ants.

But as the missionary supplies of meat as a rule are sent them in cans, damage from the Drivers in this line Is Inconsiderable. In the building of their homes' they are as queer as in other respects. Their habitat is generally against, the side of a tree, where they construct from the soli a mar-velo'usly clever mud or clay house In the form of successive umbrellas gradually increasing in size. The top one frequently is from four to five feet above the ground. Each umbrella marks the roof of one of the floors or apartments and, projecting considerably over the stem effect, in which the living quarters are arranged, acts as a watershed.

Another and not so large, but in its way quite as destructive to property and peace of mind to coast and interior inhabitants in the vicinity of the Gulf of Guinea, is pure white, and spends its surplus energy in devouring human clothing. When it has satisfied its immediate greed in this respect It proceeds to deposit its eggs over all the starched goods within reach, and. thus departing, leaves behind it. "footprints In the sand of time." which quickly hatching out. proceeds on the work of destruction with far greater havoc than the dreaded moth of this country.

For this reason the smallest possible amount of starch is used in all laundry work. Another favorite piece de resistance for these white ants is the woodwork of doors and windows, which as a rule is the only painted portion of the missionaries' homes in that region. Burrowing their way up from the ground wherever there is any possible connection for them to do so. they eat from under the paint all the woodwork about the door and window frames, thus leaving a complete hollow shell, which it takes but the slightest blow from the fingers utterly to demolish. Making their nests under ground, these white ants also travel under ground, tunneling their way as they proceed.

But if at any stage of their progress they- consider It necessary to cross an open roacj-way they construct across its entire width a viaduct as scientific and complete in its A Wood St. and Fifth Ave. It. A O. Lot of Walk-Over Oxfords at, per TROUBLES OF AN HEIRESS.

Franleln Krn pp. of Essen. Richest irl In World, finarded by-Detectives. It is one of the grim Ironies of fate that a young girl, barely of age. should be in a sense responsible for the bloodshed in the struggle between Russia and Japan, owing to the fact that she supplied both powers with practically all their guns, says the London Daily Mail.

The young woman in question is-Miss Krupp, who, on the death of her father, became chief proprietor of the world-famed Krupp works at Essen, and likewise became tbe wealthiest woman in the world. The heiress seems to have inherited some of the family capacity for industrial organization, for she takes the greatest pride and delight in supervising the work of the different departments, and declares that at some future time she will have gained sufficient experience to take an active part in the direction of affairs. Meanwhile her interference in business mattfrs is limited to passive supervision, but she takes a more active part In controlling the management of the numerous auxiliary departments of the establishment. The schools for the children of her employes and the hospitals for the care of the sick receive regular visits from her, and she has a sharp eye for defects of all kinds. Knowing human nature.

It is hardly svr prising to find that Miss Krupp's employes do not appreciate her good qualities and charitable ways. Living In Miss Krupp's houses, sending their children to her schools, applying to her hospitals when they or their families are sick, attending her churches, drinking beer in hfr restaurants, buying meat from her slaughter houses, flour from her mills, bread from her bakeries and hats and clothes from her stores make them feel that they are her serfs, and not free-born laborers. Miss Krupp's charitable disposition has become known the general public in Germany, with the result that she receives, on an average, over 200 purely-begging letters a day. and over 150 letters entreating her to grant some position in the works to some worthy young man. She also has to undergo some of the inconveniences which are generally confined to emnerors and kings.

Her vast wealth and the ownership of an entire citv make herl a likely target for anarchists' bullets, and her friends are in constant terror of assassination. For this reason her guardians have Insisted on her being continually guarded by a special corps of detectives, who are always In her vicinity. FRANCE IS FOR RUSSIA. Jeers for the Japanese, Hut Cheers for the Muscovites. In driving around Taris yesterday I passed a.

number of newspaper oftices, where, bulletins of the war were displayed. In front of every bulletin was great and excitable crowd, and here I could best perceive the attitude of the "rnan in the street." the French people at large. Wherever a bulletin read "Rumors of Japanese victory" the people hissed and jeered. One bulletin read: "Japanese suffer terible losses." At this the crowd hurrahed. Another bulletin read: "The Russians drive back the Japs." Here the crowd cheered loudly, and many of the men, including soldiers in uniform, seized one another and began dancing about like schoolboys.

I noticed that one rnan refused to cheer, and eleclined to dance when seized by cne of the crowd for the purpose. Thereupon he was pommeled and pushed until he took to his heels and ran as if for life. And that was a typical scene in this pro-Russian city- A few days ago a Russian army officer called on official business at the Russian embassy. Of course, he wore his uniform. Some one saw- him go in.

The news was quickly spread, and when he came out a great crowd awaited nim. First of all. the people cheereel him vociferously; then they would not allow him to be drawn in his carriage an ordinary voiture by a horse. No Tbe people svculd draw- hiin themselves. Where elid he wish to go? To the Ritz Hotel.

Very well, he must be drawn through the city by the allies of his country. So the crowd forthwith unhitched the horse from the cab and thus the officer returned to his hotel drawn by a regiment of citizens of Paris. It was all done with jollity and laughter, seemingly great fun for th crowd; while the officer was obliged to bow and how and smile all down the Champs Elysees and across the city. Further, whenever the Russian ambassador appears at a public meeting or in anv public place, even IT only a cafe, the people honor him as a hero, seeming determined to lavish their friendship. Last evening the ambassador dined at the Safe des Ambassadeurs.

As soon as he had taken his table, on a balcony overlooking the Cafe Chantant below, the orchestra began playing the Rusian national hymn, and the ambassador and his party arose and bowed acknowledgements of the courtesy. Such Is Paris when France is the ally of a people at war. One would think that France herself was fighting the Japs. Paris Letter in Leslie's Weekly. Ask Damanes for Boat.

The weather forecast for Pittsburg and Allegheny is "Fair tonight and Saturday." It is now-left to the people to test the weather-discerning powers of the local forecaster, Frank Ridgewav, and the veracity of the statement about St.

Swithin's day in the event of rain. St. Swithin is a canonized saint of the Roman Catholic Church. He was at one time Bishop of Winchester and acter as tutor to King Arthur. He is mentioned as an exceedingly devout Christian and is said to have performed many miracles during his lifetime which resulted beneficially to the poorer class of people.

1 ne dates of his birth and his death are uncertain. It was due to one of tnese miracles that the tradition in connection with his name came to pass. A short time before his death he left instructions to bury him in the open churchyard, among the parishioneis whom he loved and worked for. When the end came an attempt was made to inter his remains in the chancel of the minister. It is recorded the spirit of the dead saint was displeased at the disobediance of his command and brought upon the land a rain of 40 days continuance, in order that the people might be made to understand and desist from their attempt to bury him other than he directed.

Hence arose the tradition that should it rain on St. Swithin's day the showers would continue for 4 days. PURCHASE OF CEMETERY DISTURBS A CONGREGATION. Member Object to Petition for fhanice in (barter. Attorney A.

O. Stein, In behalf of Henry Light. Samuel Krause ond 8i per cent of the Coneregation Base Abraham, in Townsend street, filed objections to the petition for the amendment of the charter of the congregation, which they say is designed to permit the church to buy a cemetery.

It is alleged that the petition is tiled both for the living and dead members, that the petitioners have no right to nsk for such an amendment and were given no authority to do so. When the petition comes before the court it is expected almost the whole congregation will appear for and agams't the proposed amendment. 'The objectors say they do not want to purchase the cemetery. THOUGHT DEED FORGOTTEN. Colored Man Came Hack to City and la Arrested.

Richard Schooler, a colored man from South Sharon, was arrested this morning by Detectives Oeorgo Cole and William Elmore, as a suspicious person.

He claimed that be came back the city beliving that the police had dropped all charges against him and that he would be allowed to run gambling games at colored picnics held outside the city. He showed a telegram from an ex-policeman, which told him everything was all right.

Five Billion Messnjtrv" in One Year In I nlted States. From the figures given it appears that in there were something more than five thousand miiiions of telephone messages exchanged in the United States. If it is assumed that half the messages sent wfre sent because it was merely convenient, there remains two thousand rive hundred millions of necessary communications, of consequence as affecting the business or si cial activities of the American people. To hind out how much time was saved we must assume an arbitrary average. On long-distance messages this might run into days for each communication.

On nearby calls it might be but minutes. If we assume, as we may safely do. that the saving of time on each necessary communication in asking the question and getting an answer, or on imparting or receiving information, will average at least 10 minutes by telephone over nnv other available agency of communication, we find that the saving on the two thousand five hundred millions of messages of the exigent and important class exchanged in 1W2 was twenty-five thousand million minutes, or hours, or 17. SHI. Ill days, or 47.v1.o years.

If we allow 50 years for the maximum average of useful life, the l' minutes' saving on each of one-half the messages of the lf2 telephone service would aggregate the entire lifetime for puryioses of work of more than able-bodied men employed as messengers. By as much as we should vary the assumed average saving of time per message our totals would increase or decrease Probably 10 minutes per message is Tar below the figure which would be warranted.
