The Spider Hawk.

The miners of Colorado who havo
built cabins ON the mountain sides know
what pest the small, brown wood
spider proves to be. They throw their
webs over your best clothes, cooking
utensils and in every corner where you
can get them in your eyes and mouth.
Not only that, but they will drop into the
frying pan, water bucket or upon the
table when you are eating. But nature
furnished us aremedy and friend when
she gave us the spider hawk.
The name is given by miners TO q
small, steel blue wasp about three
fourths of an inch In length. He can
easily be recognized by the quick. ner-
vous stroke of his wings. The wasps build
a nest up among the rafters of your cabin
of wood pulp or furze from the outer
coating of old dead trees. Then they
are ready for business. Every few min.
utes you can see your hawk climbing mp
the rafters with spider, sometimes car
rying one four or five times his own
weight.
Sometimes they get a spider so heavy
that they will fall many times before
they succeed in reaching their nest
They never give up, but keep on trying
till they succeed. When the spider is
safely placed in the nest the female
hawk deposits her egg in the dead body.
The hawks lives only in pairs, as far as
my observation goes. They become
rather tame.-Great Divide.

MALAY weapons.

The national Malay weapon, the kris,
is said to have been invented by Java
nese monarch of the Fourteenth CEN
tury. It's varieties are said to exceed q
hundred, and there are in Javanese no
fewer than fifty names for them. It
varies in size, from the two feet wavy
blade of Sulu down to q mere tooth
pick. But the popularity is that the
weapon is never ground, but kept rough
and sawlike in edge, by securing with
lime juice or the juice Of an unripe pine
apple, sometimes mixed with arsensic;
and it is ON this account that kris
wounds are SO dangerous.
Old specimens are 80 eaten away by
this practice that the blade seems
formed from bunch of wires roughly
welded up. Such krises are highly
valued, and some of the ancient ones,
heirlooms of chiefs, with grotesquely
carved and inlaid hilts and sheaths, are

The scientists Of the Royal DanisN
academy have made public the results
OF some interesting experiments, which
were conducted for the sole purpose of
ascertaining the exact. or at any rate
the approximate, height Of the aurora
borealis. At Godthaab NJ. Adam Paul
sen, with two theodolites situated only
four miles apart, found that the height
OF different auroral displays varied Prom
one TO forty milesi Near Cape Fare
we'll, with a base line of three-fourths
OF q mile in length, the best calcula-
tons obtainable placed different aurora
at from one to ten miles in height; at
Spitzbergen it was shown that they
range from q height Of one-third of a
mile to eighteen miles.
In this case it will not prove uninter-
esting to mention some OF the remark
BILE opinions entertained by the early ex-
perimenters in this line. Flogel esh-
mated the height of the various aurora
observed by him at from 90 to $40 miles
above the earth; Reimann found that
one observed by him was at least 500
miles high, and Nordenskjold's earlier
deductions gave such phenomena an av-
erage height of l25 miles Then Leem-
strome came forward with the announce.
ment that he had taken notes and oh.
servations ON an auroral display that
was not separated from the earth by
more than 1000 feet, while Hildebrand-
son concurred to the extent of declaring
that many of the displays We're below

He looked every inch the hog. but he
wasn't.
He sat inside a Cottage Grove avenue
car, while two women and q man stood
just in front of him. One woman held

about in a manner very disconcerting to

FOR THE AMERICAS CUP.
The Earl of Dunraven Wants to Make
Another Trial.

NEW YORK, July GA challenge for
the Americas Cup has arrived here from
England, and it will be presented to the
New York Yacht Club as soon as the
present deed of gift is so modified as to
do away with the Objectionable ''dimen-
sion clause" A prominent member of
sthe New York Yacht Club, who is also
well known in shipping circles, has re-
Gently returned from England with the
challenge, which he is instructed to pre-
sent to the New York Yacht Club the
moment the deed of gift is modified.
The challenge comes from the Royal
Yacht Squadron of England, and while
the name of the person in whose behalf
the squadron challenges has not been
made public, it is supposed to be the
Earl of Dunraven. The bearer of the
challenge told the fact of his having been
commissioned to offer it few nights ago
in the house of the New York Yacht Club,
before a gathering of some of the most
ter will probably be considered at the
next meeting. If any way can be found
by which the last deed of gift can be
stripped of the Objectionable clause
known as the dimension clause boat
will at once be built in England to COM
pete for the cup. The dimension clause
in the amended deed of gift provides that
a challenge shall be issued ten months
before the race and that it shall contain
the dimensions of the challengers boat.
This is held by many to be unfair, as Civ
ing the challenged party knowledge of
the opponents craft and time to build a
boat to beat it.

ROCKLAND, July 6.-The court bouse
Jail has another occupant tonight in the
person of Zealor N. Young, resident of
Owls Head. Mr.. Young came to grief in
this wise: The road which passes his
house lies along the shore front, where
for years, ever since Mr.. Young can re-
member, the sea waves have beat against
its sides in angry defiance. Little by
little the road began to wear away and,
greatly to his vexation, Mr. Young saw
the passers by trespassing on his proper
ty. Time only made matters worse and
he soon made threats of suing the town.
Two thousand dollars damage he would
claim. Evidently his threats were disre-
garded and he resolved on a last desper-
ate measure. Yesterday afternoon, the
neighbors were astonished at seeing
Young, assisted by his horse, dragging
and piling logs across the street in such
a manner as to make it impossible Word
reached the first selectman of what was
ranspiring, and he in turn telephoned
for Sheriff Gray. Mr.. Gray promptly
drove to Owls Head and with the select
man fastened to the scene of action.

and he was invited to desist. Young re-
sponded that he didn't care for any sheriff
or selectman and that he would never be
taken alive. Furthermore, he didn't care
whether he lived OF not The sheriff
repeated his request and empha-
sized it by tapping Young on the
shoulder. Young apparently reached
for his revolver, when the sheriff
seeing trouble ahead opened up. He
dealt his opponent a blow which made
the latter stagger and then the men
clinched. During the struggle Young
fastened his teeth in the sheriff's arm I
with such ferocity that severe wound
was inflicted. Young was knocked
amongst some fish nets and in attempting
to extricate himself had one of the hooks
drawn into the back of his head. He
was arrested and brought to this city.
The hearing which took place before
trial Justice Ulmer was most interest
ing one. Young was put under 500
bonds for maintaining nuisance, 5000
for assaulting an officer and 5000 more
to keep the peace.
