Vaughn sv re that he lent Bone a pistol the

his had teen killed, and people perhaps
might think he dnl it. For that reason i.e

He saw Bone try to procure one elsewhere.
Elle i Twellv swore she was cooking sup

in from work. He inquired who was in
Jessie's room, and, when told Woodward
was, he sa:d that sometbi g was going on,
and he would stop it; he would kill Wood
ward. With that he caught up a chop-ax
and tried to enter Jes-ie's room, found the
door fast, and failing to get in, left the house.
After a time he returned and showed a
pistol, repealing that he would kill Wood
ward. He told the Twellv woman to see if
he was still in the room. She did so. and
Bor.e again went a-> av. She then went into
the room, and remained ten minutes iu
Woodward's presence without giving warn

thing he would kid her, too. Son i after
Woodward left, a id pretty soon 6he heard

the pistol ii his band, and said he had shot
Woodward in the breast.

THF. MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY. JANUARY It. 1890.
; REED’S PROPOSED RULES.
I HE WILL FIND DIFFICULTY IN
GETTING THEM THROUGH.
' Democrats Solid Against Them and
Considerable Opposition In His Own
Party—Slighted Republicans Want
to Play Even—Looking Out for the
Future.
Washington, Jan. IS.—Speaker Reed
has cause to be troubled about his new cede
of rules. If he ever thought th it it was to
be an easy undertaki ig to get his amend
ments promptly ad opto 1 by the House, he
m ist have abanda ,ed that idea long ag >.
As -oon as be had formulated his proposed
amendments and allowed them to leak out
so as 1 1 feel the public opinion on them, he
saw opposition arising, and he has seen it
increasing, until now it hardly seemi w .rth
whi.e to rep r: the propositions which seem
so certainly doomed to defeat.
At first the opposition seemed to be
confined to the democrats. Mr. Carli-1,
their parliamentary leader, condemned the
pr positions as soon as he lour id their
tenor, and Mr. Randall, his colleague on
the committee on rn es, c nie rme 1 them
wten M . Reed submitted the text to him
ii advance of showing the n to any one
else.
A STRANGE MISTAKE.
This visit to Mr. Rvtaall was a strange
mistake for Mr. Reed to make. He ougnt
to have known that Mr. Randall would not
approve the propositions lo put general
legislation on appropriation bills aid then
to make it easier to pis* the Appropriation
bills, even if he had approved the proposi
tion to eliminate some of the dilatory mo l
tio-is.
At the same time he must have known
that Mr. Carlisle would feel that he had not
been re-pec:fully treated in being postponed
to his democratic colleague. This is just
what happens i. Mr. Hand all did not
approve Mr. Reel’s proposition l , aud Mr.
Ca lisle felt slight and because he was kept
waiting for them, and consequently Mr.
Carlisle, altbouzh he wis nt tne capitol to
dny, did not attend a meeting of tne cem
mittee on rules, and will not while the new
code is u der discus-ion, preferring, as said
in a note to Speaker Reed o i Saturday,
to say what he has to say onjcbe floor of the
Houe.
REPUBLICAN OPPOSITION.
The democrats will of course all support
Mr. Carlisle, but Mr. Reed di-covered to
day that among his foes on the question
were those of his owr, household. Messrs.
Harmer, Cheadie and Houk, who were so
conspicuously slurred by the spea er in
making up his committees, are not to tie
depended upon to support him in any such
personal matter as this. He probably aid
not count upon them except as po.ssitde
victims of the partj- whip, but he did not
anticipate the objectio is which have
come from Mr. Cannon, one of his
co leagues, on the committee on
rules, nor apparently the strong declara
tions of some of the western republicans,
especially those who have been accust med
to defeat objectiona >le measures by fili
bustering, to the eff ct that they would
never permit Mr. Reed’s new code to be
come the law of the House.
LOOKING OUT FOR THE FUTURE.
“We sh 11 probably be in the minority in
the next rouse,” said o e of the n to-dav,
“aud must not n >w tie our ha ids so that
we cannot fig it effectively then. I doubt
whether Speaker Reed cati get a majority
of tne representatives to foil w him in tee
matter. He will have to back down.”
It now see ns likely that the Hou<e rules
as finally adopted will not differ materi lly
from those of tue last House. Mr. Reed
will not be allowed to make his improve
ments in them nor to get along without
them.

QUEER BTOKY ABOUT A BUG.
An Insect Immigrant That is Saving
California's Orange Industry.
From the Washington Star.
An entomological romance 1 You never
heard of such a thing, perhaps. And yet
the bug bureau iu the department of agri
culture has one to tell Just listen, and
see if you do not find it awfully interest
ing:
“For some years past,” said Mr. Howard
of the bureau yesterday, “tho great orange
industry of California has been threatened
with destruction by an insect that sticks its
beak into tho tree bark a id su< ks the vital
sap, givng forth a sor. of exudation whica
has procured for the pest the name of
‘white scale.’ It attacks not only oranges
and lemons, but all the citrus tribe, trees
of many o;hor kinds and even weeds, i e ce
the hopelessness of tho complaint since,
though tue fruit trees wore cioa ed of it,
the scale would immediately infest K.i
orchard again from neighboring pla its or
grasses, iso bad was it in California that
orange growers there within a year have
been digging up their orchards and g ang
iuto other sorts of larmtng. Twelve
m> ntbs ago it looked seriously as though
the state would shortly cease altogether to
produce oranges. It’ was high time that
someth! ig should be done.”
A PARASITE OF THE SCALE.
“And what was done!” asked the repor
ter. interested.
“Something entirely new to science and
human kuowledge. It was noticed that
when the scale first appeared, a few years
•go. it tackled, to begin jwitb, the acacia ;
tree, imported from Australia. Natually,
the ii.fe ence was t .at tae s ale had com?
from A s;ra! a with the acacia, aud the
moat divtinguishrd entomologists of tae
island contme it were writ en t > about the
matter. Tney all said that the wai e s-a’.e
was plentiful in Australia, but that it did
not amount to a pest. Tie orang‘orchards
were attacked by it. but did not suffer.
'Vh> >. Of coarse, ihere i us: b-> some r a-o.n
for this, and t > an entomnlog st it was very
plain. Clearly, the scale insect in Australia
ha i an eneaiv that pr-yed upon it and Kept
it down: and this one iv hal not bem im
puted witn the scale itself into Calif ornia.
Mir he, being more delicate than the scale
insect, it had noi survived th.- vovage. S>
much havmg h-en determined, tie next
thing was to find the enemy. The Aus
tralian eatomologi-ts were asked about it,
but they all sai i that t ey hid never
heard of 6jch a thing, save one expert
This inau replied tea: he bad found a very
sm .11 flv that was a parasite of the whi.e
scale. Eureka!”
THE LADYBIRD BEETLE.
"Do tell!” ecbed the newspaper mas.
“So the * we sent an expert of our own
from t: is bureau to Australia, win made a
study of the scale iu that country and
found the fir a* r presented. It was a very
go and sort of a fly and it fed on the scale for
all it was worth, but the trouble was that it
did. t breed fast enough to be of much
pmc ical use. However, our agent found a
numi er of other insects that were also
i parasites of tha scale, am ng them several
kinds of ladybird bs-tle. closely resembliug
! the ‘iadv big,’ s i called iu America. Hun
dreds of these parasites of various sorts
were shippei by him to California iu
wooden b .xes, o;i ;ee, every steamer for
four mouths ea rying a cons g iment of
| them. Meanwhile other age-n sof ours at
Los Angeles, in the midst of tile inf -sted
district, had made preparations, inclosing a
| number of orange iraas under gauza tents,
j and on receipt of the b >xes the insects that
had survived the voyage wore liberated un
| der ihe tent l . The drawback about tho
i little fly, which does not multiply its
species with eufficie .t rapidity, was soon
| found to render tnat small friend unavaila
ble for the purpose i.i view, but one species
of ladybird be.tle, on the other hand, .vas
discovered to be astonishingly pro.ific. It
bus since been estimated that one of these
beetles of the proper sex will become grand
moth r withi i six months to 75,000,000,000
of her kind, all of them surprisingly vora
cious; so much so, in fact, that a single in
dividual will destroy on an average Too of
the scales. ”
THE ORANGE INDUSTRY SAVED,
“And what did they do next ?”
“Well, a few of the ladybirds escaped
from tho tents to neighboring orange
orchards, and going right to work had sev
eral hundred trees cleansed entirely from
tho scales bv the time that our agents were
ready to send around specimens to the
orange growers. They sent a few to each
one of a largo number of orange fanners ii
various parts of the state in little boxes, and
the farmers put them on the limbs of tho
trees and left them to multiply by them
selves. This t ey did with such sneed that
orchards of 3,093 irees wvro altogether freed
from the scale within six mont s. Here is
a Utter from one orange grjw r, who savs
that he received 115 ve ialias—f r u tue
ladybird beetles are called—in ia-t March,
and t y July3l bohad personally distributed
to 326 men 123,000 beetles. Alrea ly the
state of Cal.fornia is practically freed from
the pest, and the orange aud lemon growe s
can once more look to the future of thoir
i dustry with confidence in its superb pros
pects.”
THE WINDING-UP ACT.
“But what wi 1 become of the ever-mul
tiplviug veaaliasi”
“When they have destroyed the scales, on
which they are having so glorious a fe ist at
pre e it, they will turn and feed upon each
other until ail aro destroyed, save oil y the
few nec ssary to feep the scale from be
coming a nuisance again. This is a pleasing
little provision of nature. It is worth men
tioning that the credit of this w nderful
achievement is due to Prof, C. V. Rilev, the
chief of tho entomological divisiou of this
departmon’.”
