An Edict Against Them Issued by Em.
PerOr Zeno in A. ID. 483.
In 4SS A. d. the Emperor Zeno issued the
following edict to the Pratorian Prefect Of
Constantinople (Code w., 59):
We command that no one NAV presume
to exercise a monopoly of any kind of
clothing, or of fish, or Of any other thing
serving for food, or for any other use
whatever its nature may be, either of his
own authority or under a rescript of an
Emperor already procured, or that may
hereafter be procured, or under an inn
perlal decree, or under rescript signed
by Our Majesty; nor may any persons
combine or agree in unlawful meetings
that different kinds of merchandise NAV
not be sold at less price than they NAV
have agreed upon among themselves
Workmen and contractors for buildings
and all who practice other professions, and
contractors for baths are entirely pro-
hfolted from agreeing together that no one
may complete work contracted for by
another, or that person may prevent one
who has contracted for work from finish
ing it; full liberty is given to any one to
finish work begun and abandoned by
another, without apprehension of loss, and
to denounce all acts of this kind without
fear and without costs. And if any one
shall presume to practice q monopoly, let
his property be forfeited and himself con-
demned to perpetual exile. And in regard
to the principals of other professions, if
they shall venture in the future to fix a
price upon their merchandise, and to bind
themselves by agreements not to sell at
lower price, let them be condemned to pay
forty pounds Of gold. Your court shall be
condemned to pay fifty pounds of gold if it
shall happen, through svarice, negligence
or any other misconduct, the provisions of
this salutary constitution for the prohibi-
ton of monopolies and agreements among
the different bodies Of merchants shall not
be carried into effect"

HABITS OF WAsPs.
An Incident Illustrative Of Their Cunr

An Incident Illustrative Of Their Cunning
and Ferocity.
The subterfuges resorted to by animals in
search Of food have been regarded by the
general reader as the most interesting and
instructive portion of the works of natural
lists. An incident illustrative of the cum
ming OF the wasp was recently related to
the New York Ledger by an observing gen.
tleman,
A blue wasp, known as the solitary wasp.
because it lives alone in its little clay nest.
was seen to hurl itself upon the strong,
wheel-shaped web of a large spider. Here
1t set up loud buzzing, like that Of a fly
when accidentally entangled in q similar
web. The spider, watching at the door of
his silken domlcile, stole cautiously forth.
His advance was slow, for he evidently felt
tnat ne was approaching no common enemy.
The apparently desperate yet fruitless ef-
forts OF the wasp To free himself encour-
aged the spider and lured him forward. But
when within some three inches of his in
tended victim, the wasp suddenly freed
himself from his mock entauglements. and
dartIng upon the poor spider, in moment,
as it were, pierced him with his deadly
sting in hundred places.
The wasp then bore his ill-gotten spoil to
his lonely home. This home is built nf ola
snimole-shaped and originally containing
but one apartment In the lower part OF
this cut-de-Sdc the wasp deposits its eggs
Immediately over them it draws thin, giu.
tinous curtain. Upon this curtain it packs
away the proceeds of it's hunting excur.
sions, such as spiders, flies and all other in.
sects which it regards as suitable food fol-
its young. Consequently when the young
escape from the ova, they find above them
well-stocked larder, and gradually cal
their way through the choice depository,
finally appearing TO the delighted world in
the agreeable form and stature of perfect
wasps.

AsMrs. Johns talked on, telling the lonely
