The SENSE OF DIRECTION IN ANIMALS.
The remarkable faculty which cats,
dogs, pigeons, and other animals pos
sess, Of returning in straight line to a
point Of departure, has awakened much
curiosity on the part of naturallsts.
Some refer it to. instinct, some to in
telligence similar to that of man, some
to an internal mechanism which makes
the animals simple automata; but none
of these attempted explanations do
anything towards solving the mystery.
Wallace supposed that when an ami
mai is carried to a great distance in a
basket, its fright makes it very atten.
tive to the fferent 1ors which it en-
counters upon the way, and that the
return of these odnrs. in inverse order,

THE town authorities concluded that
the bridges over Salt Greek would be
safer if they were lighted with lamps.
There were reports that several ladies
had been rudely treated in passing these
dark bridges. The lamps were bought
and arrangements made for the night po-
lice to light and extinguish them. But
as this would necessitate the carrying of
ladder and big can of oil daily distance
of half mile, the watchmen struck -
and now the lamps will be fixed with
weights. Now let every loafer who may
be found hanging around the bridges be
promptly and unceremoniously trotted
off to the calaboose.
