Simply Mimetic.

If YOU will take a sharpened stick
and drive it into the ground a number
of times, in spot which is prolific
with worms, and then tap on the
ground with the stick for a few min,
utes, you will find that the worms will
come to the surface, and that they will
come up through the holes which you
have made, l account for it by the
supposition that the tapping of the
stick somehow affects the worms the
same as the patter of rain, and it is q
well-known fact that worms come tc
the surface of the ground when il
rains.

which took place yesterday in the lobby
OF tho French Chamber OF Deputies, be-

furnishes whatever may have been nc.
Cessary to convince tho world that the
present French Government Is catching
Ut straws In the forlOrn hope OF prolopg'

That the government Is fleeing from
the bete NOir OF Boulangerism can no
longer be concealed, and that the
mediocre ministry lust now essaying to
direct the destlnies OF France Is on It's
last legs, Is also fact as plain as the sun
atnOonday.
Tho action Of NJ. Floquet, in refusing
to accord to NJ. Laur the satisfaction
which that gentleman demanded, and
loitlly taking refuge In the tribune,
whore he might without fear Of personal
injury offer additional insults TO the fiery
Deputy, Is allnost generally condemned,

The chief object OF every French min.
istry that has been in power since Gem
eral Boulanger was relieved OF the War
portfolio has apparently been to oppose
that person, though 1t ia nowhere set
forth in the constitution or laws OF tho
French Republic that such a quarrel Is
tho principal, or even minor, function
OF the Government. Because OF the
petty aims OF the successive ministries
during the past two years, the elements
they have sought to combat have grad
