An interesting essay on the poison
of spiders was recently delivered by
Prof. Brieger Of Halle before a society
of naturalists. Experiments made with
two kinds OF Russian spiders reputed to
be venomous showed them to be innocu-
Gus. but the third species. belonging to
the same region and properly termed
the '.black wolf," was found
fully to bear out its reputa-
ton. Its poison is more pow
erful perhaps than any known, not ex-
cepting prussic acid and strychnine. Il
makes great ravages among Russian
live stock, attacking the animals as
they Craze. 1t infiicts q sting on the
mouth or tongue which causes death in
a short time. The venom pervades the
entire system OF the spider. consti-
tuting about 25 per cent. of its weight.
The poison belongs TO the class Of So
called ferments, being composed Of al
luminous matter. It is rendered in
active when subjected to the action Of
alcohol. 1t produces no effect when
taken into the stomach, but when in
troduced into the blood vessels it acts
so powerfully that two or three milli-
grammes will suffice to kill q man.
Prof. Brieger has examined the spi-
ders Of Germany. and has found ono
only to be venomOus. In this species
the venom IL possessed only by the
young insect, which IL virulent in an
extraordinary degree.-N y Post.

Neither am ]. 1t has taken the
most Of my life to acquire the educa-
tiOn and accomplishments that at

And the disconsolate young man went
to the nearest drug store and bought
two-for-a-quarter cigar, with which he
speedily solaced himself.-Detro,t Free

FOND OF HlPPOPOTAMUS.


Congo Natives f1ghting Over . Rlvos
Horse Killed by white Nea.
Lieutenant Won Francois describes .
half savage. half comic occurrence on
the Upper Congo awhile ago that
illustrates the remarkable fondness Of
the natives Of that region for animal
food. While he was steaming up the
river one day Mr.. Grenfell and he shot
a hippOpotamus. and the crew drew
the huge animal on shore to cut
it up. They had not been engaged in
this work more than five minutes be-
fore they were surrounded by . great
crowd of natives, who watched the
operation with the keenest interest.
The tongue and the best parts Of the
flesh were reserved for the steamboat
hands. who then left the animal and
gave the natives chance.
With uplifted knives the crowd
rushed upon the remains. and began
to slash away on all sides. Scores Of
the natives could not get near the
body. and they began to push and
pull their more fortunate COM
rades with frantic ea9erness.
Those whose knives were within reach
OF the coveted flesh knew . good thing
when they had it, and they did not pro-
pose to yield an inch of ground. They
would slash away for a minute. then
stop to fight the rear guard OF. and
then renew the cut:iDg-up process.
The pushing. struggling. bowling mob
made an exciting scene. Then the UNI
f0rtunates in the rear. unable by dint OF
muscle to gain access to the creature.
gathered handfuls OF sand. which they
sbowered over the hippOpOtamus
butchers, endsavorinS TO blind them.
So the battle went on until finally
those who were nearest the carcass
rolled it over and over into the water
until it was entirely submerged. From
this vantage ground they continued
the work Of cutting up the animal un.
Ill every scrap that was edible was
secured. This means that there was
very little left but the skeleton. for the
average Congo native is not Mt all par.

hide OF the river horse into small bits,
and. after boiling it a long time. man.

His fixed idea was to combine the
