the idea apparently struck him that the
people in the meadows had not received
sufficient notice. He remedied this by
asking for his field glass and took a.
long survey of the multtudes who
thereupon greeted him with rounds of
cheers and the waving of handker-
chiefs. To this Prince Bismarck re-

In the meanwhile the songs and cheers

FLOWERS FOR SOUVENIRS.
The prince, little later, took a few
flowers which Countess William Bis
marck had laid on the balustrade and
threw them one by one among the stu
dents, who struggled wildly 10 obtain
possession of them. The countess there
upon entered the house and brought
forth fresh supplies of flowers and gar
lands which Prince Bismarck for a long
time threw down to the forest of out

During the evening there was great

STILL LOVES A FIGHT.
Replying to the address of the profess
sor of the universities this morning,
Prince Bismarck said that though ne
had been treated with such histility by
political parties. it must not be taken
too tragically. It was the way of the
world to fight, he added, and from the
fact that the people still attacked him,
he concluded that his thought were not
dead.
Different groups of Socialists, Cen
trists and Poles took it i'll of him for
but he could sustain the truth of this
remark by saying that theoretically
they might all be well disposed toward
the empire-provided the empire was
such as they desired.
Continuing, the prince said that it
was to be regretted that the Socialists
had not secured the second vice-prasi-
dency of the reichstag, because that
would have shown that the affairs of
the Socialists were not ripe enough for
resolute action. The empire with its
growth of practical facts had to be
rekoned with and it must be the duty of
all to preserve it.

The bureau OF entomology has been CO.
lsctlrg some interesting Information latt
ly ascut scorpiuHs, coatipeds and tarau-
Tulas. Respecting these creatures all sCTts
OF nonsensical beiiefs are prevalent al .
travellers who have visited tropical reeisus
disagree as to the effects Of their bites
That the poison of any one OF the three is
apt TO be deadly has often been asserted
The question derives particular imror-
tsnce from the fact that the animals arc
constantly imported into this country in
punches OF bananas and among ether
fruits from lower latitudes.
Tarantulas are simply big spiders OF the
kind that build houses with tSapdoors
Their bite Is very severe ana painful, the
scar lasting for long time; bus, though
IL produces d violent Inflammation for a
short time, il is not dangerous 70 life.
Such, at all events, is the belief Of Pro
fessor &. V. Riley. In regard to the CEN
tipped Professor Riley says that its bite IN
warm climates is sometimes excessively
virulent and painful, though &c other
times, oddly enough, the poison causes
little inconvenience. That it is ever fatal
Is not believed.
Scorpion stiDgs are very painful indeed.
They are dangerous in proportion to the
size Of the animal, its age and the state OF
irritation in which il may be. Tempera
ture also has an influence upon the venom.
l5 may be that the sting is occasionally
followed By death, but such cases must be
very rare. There is no doubt that the
sting of certain species commonly found
In South America causes fever, numbness
in various parts Of the body, tumors on
the tongue and dimness Of sight. These
symptoms last from 2i 20 As hours. The
effects produced diminish in violence with
repetition, 30 that person who has been
stung many times may become actually
proof against the poison.
Some scorpions are much worse than
Others. Tho rather small, slender, pale
col0red kinds have the worst reputation.
IN warm ATTITUDES certain places are near
ly free from scorpions, while others are
overrun by them, for reasons not we'll I'M
derstoOd. They are extraordinarily nu-
merous in q valley in the TERRA Templada
of Mexico There 10 is hardly possible to
turn over stone without finding three or
four small and wicked scorpions Of a pale
color beneath it.
Ii Is a common belief that the legs Of
the Centiped are poisonous, and that they
will leave a trail that burns like fire II
the animal runs over the bare tlesh. This
Is wholly a mistake. The creature Is nat
urally timid and will not even try to bite
If 1t can get away. The poison causes a
good deal of pain, with fever and distress
of the head. Centipeds are fond Of YER
min infested beds, and in tropical coun,
tries beds are very apt TO be so infested

During calm we lowered a boat and
