CINCINNATI, Oct. 2J.-The gams yesterday
between the st. Louis Browns, champions of
the American association, and the Chicagos,

decisive one in the series between these two
clubs for the championship of the world, and
resulted in an easy victory for the st. Louis
team. 1t was Clarkson's day to pitch, but he

A Very Small Lion.

In Africa, deep pits are often made
by human hunters to capture game,
and among the insects we find the ant
lion (HYrmeieon) adopting similar
ruse. Its eggs are laid in sandy places,
and when the young ant-lions appear
they have no wings, and arc Hat little
creatures with immense jaws. As soon
as born, the curious Larvae proceed to
work Each young ant-lion selects a
soft place in the sand, and by turning
itself around and around. it traces an
exterior circle; and by continuing the
spiral motion, and gradually retreating
to the center, it marks out and forms
cavity having spirals like those of
snail shell. Next, these are smoothed
down by an ingenious process. If a
pebble rolls in, or is found in the slope,
the ant-lion places itupon its head, and
with sudden jerk sends it far out of
the pit. But sometimes pebbles are
found that are too heavy to be thrown
out in this way, and then another plan
is adopted. The pebble is carefully
rolled upon the flat back of the ant
lion, which starts up the incline with
its tail high in the air, so that the load
is kept upon level, and finally deposit
ted upon the outside. Ii the pebble is
round, many attempts have to be made.
The pit completed is seen to be a circu-
lar or conical depression, at the bottom
of which the willy hunter conceals it,
SELF only its jaws and many eyes being
visible; and here it awaits its prey,
that sooner or later comes tumbling in.
Ants that happen to be off on a foraging
journey are the most frequent victims.
The ant comes running along rapidly,
and is over the edge of the pit before he
knows it, the treacaerous sand giving
way and precipitating him down to-
ward the concealed lion. A moment
more and two TO him) enormous jaws
open, and the ant quickly disappears
from sight forever. Sometimes, in
stead of tumbling down into the pit,
the ant obtains a foothold and almost
escapes; but in such case the ant
lion throws aside all concealment, rush
eS out, and shoyels sand upon its strug-
Cling victim, and by successive jerks
bombards it with such a fusillade of
sand that, beaten and confused, it rolls
down into the open jaws of the cruel
hunter. For two years the ant-lion
carries on its predatory warfare, grad
ually growing larger and charging its
pit, until finally it is ready to change
into a ehrysalis 1t then envelops it
self in round ball of sand, cemented
together by fine sIlken cords. In this
cocoon it lives for about three weeks,
when it energies perfect four-winged
insect resembling the dragon-iiy. &C

a "Reminiscences of Artemus Ward.

1t was back in the iifties; we were
all rooming in ''old q, y our bachelor
barracks, in the upper story of a bust
ness block on Superior street, in Cleye-
land. A gay party we were Sam and
George, ALT and Harry and our third
story den became headquarters for lots
OF witty and joyial boys, who made it
almost club-room in their nightly
visits. Among the most welcome was
Charley Brown, .'Artemus Ward" rs
he was Just then earning the sobriquet
from his quaint series of humorous ar
tcles IN the Pldlndedier, on which he
was local editor. Brown, or Artemus,
rs we already began to call him, was
excessively fond of practical Jokes, and
the fun they made among the circle of
his friends will long be remembered.
One night, among the small hours,
Artemus burst into our room-the door
was always on the latch rushed to the
window, threw it up and. leaning out,
screamed in the shrillest OF feminine
voice:
Help! Help. Murder! Help! Muir
dcr!'
A rush up the staircase followed,
while Artemus slipped into the nearest
bed, and half score of police dashed
into the room and summoned us to ac-
count for the screams.
Artemus sleepiy assured the blue
coated gentry that no born woman
was secreted III Our premises, and so
well enacted the sleepy establishment
OF awakened virtue that, after prowl-
ing in vain about the room, the guardi-
ans Of the peace withdrew, and we
heard them ransacking the building
for quite while seeking for the cause
OF the alarm.
When all was quiet Artemus ex-
planned the rumpus he had made.
Some three or four printers, who
worked on the Raindedler, had been
imbibinS too freely, andCharley Brown
coming up found them in the hands of
the police, being conducted to the Gala
boose. Anxious to rescue them he con
ceived and executed the ruse The
piercing screams of the female in dis
tress, and the eager hope of unearth-
ing tragedy. drew away the attention
of the nighthawks, and they let the
birds in the hand loose to pursue the

shortest way home. while we denizens
of room u enjoyed the joke as Arte-
mus last. -".'cS.or, IN The hagicSide.
