A Spider from the south.

About a week ago, Mr.. Charles Babbidge,
an employee of the horse railroad company,
bought bunch of bananas and took them
home. Having cut off the fruit, he threw
the stalks into his woodshed. Tuesday his
wife went out to get some wood, and had
no sooner picked up piece than she drop
ped it in fright, for beneath it was mon
strous spider, which proved to be tarantula
South American spider, whose bite is very
poisonous. The insect had been concealed
in the bananas, and had been thrown out
with the stalks. The spider was taken to
Schlotterbeck & Foss's drug store, where 1t
was put in a bottle Of alcohol, and there it
will remain as a curiosity. Its body is about
two inches long, and the legs are perhaps
double that length.
