BESIEGED By LAND CRABS.
Scientific Men Have q Novel Experiencl
While In Jamaica.

sour laboratory in Jamaica was on
the side of rocky limestone hill,
honeycombed in all directions by cracks
and assures and large caves, all inhab.
tied by big land crabs, which came out
every night, usually in pairs, to forage
around our home. They would climb
the steep stone terrace and the high
steps to our door, where they would
stand peeping inquisitively through the
crack of the door and waiting and
watching until the house was quiet.
whenever we looked up from our
work in the evening we were sure to
see at least one gentleman crab and his
wife beside him, standing on tiptoe and
cooking their long stalked eyes on the
watch for chance to slip in and ex-
plore the house. AS soon as we were
we'll settled at our work they would
creep stea thily in and wander every
where, although they were especially
fond of climbing up the mosquito nets
to the canopies over our beds.
"A crab hunt was the last event of
our day, and it was not without excite
ment, for while the animals are gen.
orally peaceful and we'll behaved, they
have big formida BILE claws and they
always fight when cornered. They eau
not be driven out, for while they are
timid and desirous to escape, they
never go out of the door, but run side
wise along the walls, tumbling over
each other in their eagerness until they
reach hiding place behind our trunks
or under the furniture, when they re-.
sist all attempts to dislodge them,
clinging to everything within reach
and waving their big claws in the most
threatening way.
81 soon learned that the way to clear
the house is to sweep them with q
broom into the middle of the floor, be-.
fore they have time to hide, and then,
keeping them we'll away from the fur
niture and door castings, to hurry them
along until they are opposite the open
door and to shoot them out with push
which sends them over the steps and
clear of everything down the hill, for
If they are simply pushed out they hang
on by the tips of their claws over the
wall and out of sight, ready to come
back as soon as the way is clear."-
