The spider stories have travelled so far West
that they have become slightly apochryphal.
AT Plainyille, ILL.,, last week, an honest old
farmer was surprised on entering his barn, to
find his pet bulldog and old cat and kittens
suspended from the cross beams of his barn by
spiders webs. Furthermore, a sucking colt
was mounting to the same altitudinous perch
having been encircled by the webs of the
spiders, who were rapidly hosting their prey
but the farmer was in time to save his colt.
The veracious chronicler of this extraordinary
circumstance says the spiders were taken from
the dovecote. of which they had taken posses
sion, and measured three and one-half inches
in length and weighed half pound
