A writer in the Popular Science Monthly
thinks that animals are not governed solely by
instinct. He says: What is instinct2 1t is
"rhe faculty of performing complex acts, OBJ.
solutely without instruction or previously-ac-
quired knowledge" Instinct, then, would en-
able animals to perform spontaneously acts
which, in the case Of man, presuppose r7tio-
ctnation, q logical train of thought. But, when
we test the observed facts which are usually
nut forward to prove the power OF instinct, 1t 10
found that they are seldom conclusive. 1t was
on such grounds shat the song OF birds was
taken to be innate, albeit very ready expert

THE KU-KLU1 HUNT.
WASHINGTON, January so.

WARRINGTON, January So.
The report OF the attorney.xeneral, Just sub
mItted to Congress, covers reports OF district
attorneys In North Carolina, South Carolina
and other Southern States where Ku.Klux ia
said to have exsted, relative to operations OF
Ku-Klux and enforcement acts. They all agree
that all prosecutions under both these acts
were vigorously enforced during the past year.
They think the passage OF these acts OF Com
gress, and the prompt prosecutions Of those
Violating their provisions, have had most
salutary feet throughout The Southern
States. In North Carolina there are Q
mostly young men who have been per-
suaded in Joining the Ku-Klnx, being actually
Ignorant of the object Of the order. These
Young men, the district attorney Of North
Carolina is OF the opinion, should not be pun
ished further than they have already been by
confinement In the jsils of that State: The
deficiency In the department appropriation Is,
as already stated, three hundred thousand
dollars, for which an appropriation is asked.
This amount was incurred In expenses OF
attorneys, marshals and other ofacers In COZ
ducting prosecutions under the laws OF Con-
gress, principally in Southern States.
