INSECT CRIMINALS.

BriGahd Bees Live By Robbery ana vie
Ience.
Almost every form and variety Of hu-
man crime is common with insects
Cases Of theft are noticed among bees.
Buchner, in his "Physic Life of Ami
mails" speaks Of the thievish bees,
which, in order to save themselves the
trouble of working, attack well-stocked
hives in masses, kill the sentinels and
the inhabitants, rob the hives and carry
off the provisions. After repeated en-
terprises of this description, they ac-
quire a taste for robbery and violence;
they recruit whole companies, which
become more and more numerous, and
finally they form regular colonies Of
brigand bees.
But it is stall more curious fact that
these brigand bees can be produced ar
tifcially by giving working bees
mixture Of honey and brandy to drink.
The bees soon take a delight in this
beverage, which has the same disas-
trous effect upon them as upon men;
they become i'll disposed and irritable
and lose all desire to work; and finally,
when they begin to feel hungry, they
attack and plumber the well-supplied
hives.
There is one variety Of bees-the
sphecodes-which lives exclusively
upon plumber. According to Marchal.
this variety is formed Of individuals Of
the Halyates species, whose organs Of
notification are defective, and which
have gradually developed into a sepa-
rate variety, living almost exclusively
by plumber.
They may be thus said to be an ez-
ample of innate and organic criminal
ity among insects, and they represent
what Prof. IombrosO calls the born
criminals-that is, individuals which
are led to crime by their own organic
itutioa-Albanv Argus.

Leadville. Col. June 20.-As a result
of discomfort and fruitIess efforts for
