A QUEER FRIENDSHIP.
A Horuet That Makes Daily Visits to d.
Wilnlin KtoD (DeI) Lawyer.

#
There is lawyer in the city who has
ton Every Evening. The big insect is
almost daily visitor to the office.
Should callers he present talking con-
Bdentially on business matters there IS
q sudden whiZz and bang from side to
side OF the room. Mr.. Vespe Crabro.
that is to say tho hornet, has just paid
his visit in sudden seriai fight through
tho open doorway. The visitor (the
human one) is scared almost to death
on recognizing what made the noise.
But tho lawyer is not He knows it is
his old friend. the hornet, como in for
his daily food.
Iio comes regularly foraging for his
dinner. And now no is dashing i'm
potuously back and forth in gradually
shortening chords in front of the two
windows. Watch his tactics. Ills
presence has caused the greatest con-
sternation among the big colony of
house flies basking in the sunny win
dow corners. There is panic among
thom. Thcy buzz loudly. dashing up
and down In n.frantic movements as their
relentless oncmy draws nearer at each
sweep OF his flight Undoubtedly tho
hornet is closely scanning the pack OF
flies in order to select tho plumpest and
largest among them for his prey.
There he goes with bump at the
window. There Is momentary strus-
gle and one almost fancies he hears a
squeal. The hornet has secured his din
ner. In one wide circling sweep of his
pinions no sails proudly around the
room and bears off tho fated fly to the
neighboring mud or paper nest where
Mrs. V Crabro grimly awaits her spouse's
arrival.
The lawyer informed the reporter that
he often INDUCES himself watching the
hornets antics. Sometimes he comes
In purely for ncighborly visit or else
with wicked feeling of spite against
the poor fat flies. He amused himself
for five minutes just soaring them and
then flits of without taking any prey.
II can generally DO told. however, when
he is hungry. Then he comes in with
loud impetuous hum and dashes
straight for the flies. .Once by accident
he was shut in the Office all night. The
lawyer found him in the morning flying
around the room IN very bad temper.

, A rat got caught by the leg IN store
and squealed loudly for mercy, says a
Maine exchange. The proprietor of the
store watched the rat, which continued
to squeal. Finally another rat crept
cautiously out and walked up to his un-
fortunate companion and evidently took
the, situation in, for they seemed to
talk with each other and arrived at the
conclusion that the captured rats
chances were desperate, for the second
one began to gnaw the unfortunate rats
leg of, allowing it TO escape, which it
did, linping away on three legs, the
othet leg remaining in the trap. 1t al
most seemed as II they had doliberated
over the case and had reached the only
possible means of escape.
