LOCUSTS ARE ARRIVING
AdvancedOuard of Pharoah’s Pest
Mere With Omen of War
Get your gun and clean it up
and be prepared for the worst.
The “Seventeen-year” Locusts are
reported to be putting in their ap
pearance. Several are reported to
have been seen around Newark
(luring the past few days.
Some are said to have been seen |
| with the fatal “W” in their wings, j
To the superstitious, the appear
ance of locusts with “W” in their
wings, is an omen of war. It is
: said that previous to the Revolu
tion, the Civil war, and other
bloody conflicts, these pests put in
their appearance with this signifi
cant omen of warfare. They are
also said to have thus once warned
la hauty Egyptian ruler of an im
pending crisis.
To many, this is simply a foolish
delusion, but what the supersti
tious believe, they usually con
tinue to believe, in spite of all
reasoning.
It has been a good many years
since the locusts appeared in any
considerable numbers. They seem
to be growing less in numbers at
each succeeding appearance. This
is said to be due to the English
sparrows, which feed with avidity
upon the locusts, and many thou
sands of them are destroyed by the
sparrows each time they make
their appearance.

Accused of Burning House
Newport, May 23. Officer A.M.
Ballcw reached home Monday
night without securing W. ('. and
Hi]lis Hubbard, formerly of Tuck
erman, who were thought to have
been located near Cairo, 111. Hillis
Hubbard is wanted on a warrant
charging arson, while his father,
W. C. Hubbard, is sought on a
warrant for accesory to arson.
They are known to have been stay
ing near Cairo and requisition pa-j
pers issued by (iovcrnor I )onaghey
were honored by Governor Deneen
of Illinois.
Officer Ballew found that the
Hubbards have been staying near
Cairo and left the papers and war
rants with officers there.
The charge of arson grows out
of the burning of the house in
Tuckerman owned by .1. H. Griffin
and occupied by the Hubbard fam
ily, which lire also resulted in the
destruction of the house occupied
by Dan Dowell, Jr. W. C. Hub
bard had $400 insurance on the

paid.

The
Telephone
Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional or in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad- j
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone.
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the •
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.
