WAYS OF THE ANT.

Members of His Tribe Made to Do Duty
Honey Pots.
1t has long been recognized that the
ant is very intelligent insect and
leads very complicated social life.
There are classes among them-pluto-
Gratis, laborers and criminals.
The author of a recent work ON en-
tomology notes the curious habit of
one species of ant of turning some
of their fellows into animated honey
potts.
Instead of placing honey in comb,
as the bees do, the ants select GER
tain number of workers and disgorge
the honey obtained from the Eucalypti
ION which it is deposited by coccidae
and other insects) into the threats OF
their victims. The process, being con-
tinually repeated, causes the stomachs
of these workers to be distended to an
enormous size.
This extraordinary habit was first
discovered in the case of certain ants
in Mexico, and subsequently shown to
prevail in Colorado. 1t has been found
to exist in Australia also, and Mr.. Frog
CART describes and figures three ants
of the genus camponotus that pursue
this remarkable practice. The ants con-
tanning honey are favorite food with
the natives.

Novel PiIa Driving.

IL a paper recently read before the
American Society of Civil Engineers,
Prof. w. II. Burr described some expert
mental pile driving through new stone
filed crib work. Nineteen piles were
driven. The crib was 35 feet deep, and
the piles, from SO feet to GO feet long,
were shod with chilled cast-iron points,
held on by straps spiked to the pile.
The hammer used in driving weighs
$500 pounds, and the greatest number
of blows was $50. There was no diff
Guilty whatever in driving the piles, and
there were no failures. In the discus
sion following the reading of the paper
several other gentlemen gave particu-
lars of pile driving through loose rock.
The shoe used in the work of the New
York department is conical, the angle
of the cone being about 60 degrees.
The base of the cone is fiat, and it is Sc
cured to the cone by pin cast as part
of the shoe and let into the end of the
pile. This type of shoe is said to have
proved very satisfactory in practice.

lies, to write for further particulars
to the State Board of Control, Madi-
