SNAILS OVERRUN A CITY.
lahabltnnt* of Indiana Town OrfU.
tae Night Hunt* and Kill
the I'esta with Halt.
A plague of snattlT, or slugs, ua the af
flicted people call them, lately struck
Jeffersonville, lnd., In full force, and
matnnees are cited where persona have
been compelled to more. Their first
appearance wus after the flood of F<ib
ruary, 18S4, but they have never been
no bad as at present. The peats are
not exactly like a snail, but resemble
them in some respects. They have no
shells and are night raiders, aaya tha
New York World.
At no place in the city where tha
flood water failed to reach has one of
the slugs been seen, but In the moat
fashionable quarters the peats are
numerous. In size they range from
one to six Inches In length, being from
a quarter to an inch in diame.ter. It la
not until ten o'clock at night that the
snails ccine out of their hiding places,
under houses, and slug hunting parties
have become fashionable.
Armed with a lamp and a cup of salt,
the people hunt for the pest, aud when
a slug is found its days are numbered^
for the smallest particle of salt means
death. The more ealt the quicker tha
work.
They leave behind a slimy track, that
furnishes a clew to their movement*.
In some places fine carpets have been
ruined, the slimy tall eating like acid.
One of the most peculiar character
istics of the slugs Is their ability to get
their large bodies through a small
apace. They flatten out almost as thin
as a knife blade, allowing them to ornw)
through s good siied door.crach.
