PLANT PEOULIARITIES-
How Two Specimens Secure h Pros
pagation Of Their Seed.

DR.. Lundstrom has recently described
some cases of alleged plant mimcry.
The cultivated plant known as ~calendula
may in different conditions produce at
least three different kinds of fruit. Some
have sails, and are suited for transporta-
ton by the wind, while others have
hooks, and catch hold of passing AMI
nails; but the third kind exhibits a more
desperate dodge, for it becomes like a
caterpillar Not that the fruit knows
anything about it. but if it be sufficient
ly like a caterpillar, a bird may eat it
by mistake, the indigestible seeds will
be subsequently sown, and so the trick
succeeds.
The next case is more marvellous.
There is a more graceful wild plant
with beautiful delicate wild flowers,
known to many as the cow wheat. Ants
are fond of visiting the cow-wheat to
feast on "a sweet banquet spread out
upon the leaves. DR.. Lundstrom has OBJ
served one of these ants, and was sur.
prised to see it making off with one of
the seeds from an open fruit. The ant
some ant nests, the explorer saw that
this was not the first ~ccw-wheat seed
which had been similarly treated. Many
The ants did not eat them or destroy
them; in fact, when the nest was dis
turbed. the ants saved the seeds along
with their prooc, lot IN size, IofIn, Color
n weight, even in minute particulars,
the seeds in question resemble an co.
cons. Once placed among the cocoons,
it requires a better eye h a an ant has
to distinguish the tears from the wheat.
In the excitement of fitting, when the
nest is disturbed, the mistake is repeat
ed, and the seeds are also saved. The
trick is found out some day, for the
seeds, like the cocoons awake out of
sleep. The awakening displays the fraud.
The seeds are thus supposed to be scat
tered; they terminate and seem to thrive
in the ant nests.-ExcEange.

CYCLISTS VS.. TOLL KEEPERS.
The Question Will BE Tested I'm h
New Jersey Courts.


MOORESTOWN, July %, 1se5.-The
Moorestewn and MT Holly and the
Moorestown and Camden Turnpike Com
panies p a~scertaining through the
courts whether they mo compel BIZ
cycle riders to pay toll on ~turnpikes.
The two companies own the turnpike
starting from Market street, Camden,
and running through Merchantvi1le,
Moorestown and MT. Holly, a distance of
eighteen miles.
The directors of the turnpike COM
panfes finding the great popularity of
the bicycle was causing a diminution of
carriage drivers and consequently of
their receipts from toll, resolved, that
as the law classed the bicycle as a
vehicle. they should be charged toll.
The tol1gate keepers were then instrlict-
ed to collect one cent for each mile rode
over their turnpikes with a bicycle.
Acting on the advice of DIR. Joseph
Stokes, the local consul of the League
of American Wheelmen. the cyclists re-
fused to pay, and on approaching one
of the toll houses would speed up and
dash through before the keeper could
detain them.
The companies then instructed the
gate keepers to close the gate and de-
mand payment before allowing a wheel
man to pass Through. The latter now
ooolly ride UP ito the toll house, dis
mount, pick up their whsefs, carry them
then mount and go on their way rejoic-
ing. This battles the turnpike companies,
as they nave no jurisddciient over the
sidewalk and the lowefsvcolrts Will now
have to render a decision on the matter.

The Jersey Citys proved no match for
the Puritans in the game at Greenyille
on Saturday. The Jersey Citys played
like novices in the first inning, allowing
their opponents to score eleven runs.
The fielding of both teams was yellow,
the Puritans allowing the visitors to
turn the tables and score eleven runs
in the last inning. The game was, with
out exception, the most uninteresting
ever played on the Puritan's grounds.
