Scorpions sharp Ears.

l have studied the habits of the scor.
pion for many years, and have often no

20 the most delicate sounds, musical or
otherwise. Under the thorax the scor-
pion has two comb-like appendages,
which are the antcnnw (pectinatm). II
IL pretty we'll settled by psychologists
and entomologists that in insects the
antenn@ represent the organs of hear.

affected by the vibrations Of sound, and
there can be no doubt whatever that
they are also affected by sounds quite
inaudible Ia the human ear. The slight

insects owe the power of protecting
themselves against danger, as well as

of the more modern plans OF electric
lighting. This idea has been frequent
ly expressed for the past year or two,
and now that the city is assured of an
effective supply of spring water and
later on a good telephone service,
electric lighting seems to be inevitable.
Our citizens are pretty we'll agreed on
the general proposition that Redwood
Falls ought to have electric lighting,
but very few of them haye Investigate
ed the subject sufficiently to be abso-
lutely sure what system is the best or
whether we can afford to take it up at
this time, in view of the large public
expenses already incurred. A meeting
was held at the club rooms last Mon
day night, to get an expression of pub
lie opinion on this subject. Mayor
Dickinson opened the meeting with a
statement that he had recently learned
of a Thompson-Houston electric light
ing plant which had been thrown upon
the market by reason of large manu-
featuring firm making a change of To-
cation to building already supplied
with electric lights. The plant could
be purchased at little above fifty per
cent of original cost, and included a
seventy-five horsepower engine and
fixtures for running IS arc lights of
1900 candle power each besides a
much larger number of incandescent
lights. He said that while it did not
seem best at this time for the city to
assume the cost of an electric lighting
system, it was practicable for citizens
to purchase plant and lease it to the
municipality to run in connection with
the water works pumping station.
Mayor Dickinson disclaimed an expert
knowledge of the various electric sys-
TENS, but thought that if our citizens
decided that they wanted electric light
ing, it might be a good plan to send
some one to Investigate the plant Of
fered for sale, along with others. The
meeting finally resolved to send out a
committee consisting of H. A. Bald
win, ]. A. Beard and G. A. Francois
to canvass the town as to amount of
stock that can be placed among our
citizens, the intention being to turn
the plant over to the city few years
hence, rather than have our lighting
done by private corporation under
an exclusive franchise. Nearly half
the 5000 wanted as a starter was
subscribed Tuesday forenoon.
