RUSSIA HAS. GOLD TO SPARE.

Offers to Lend Uncle Sam S4OO,OOO,O 600,
or Any Portion Thereof.
Washington, Dec. :6.-Great interest
was excited in official circles here
Wednesday by the publication in the
Washington Post, under New York
date, of circumstantial statement OF
the fact that the Russian government
has offered to lend the United States
any amount of gold up to $4OO, 000, 900
one-half of it's total possessions of this
specieAin order to maintain its credit
against assaults from the great money
powers of other European nations and
that, learning of this tender, the Roths.
childs, through Messrs. Belmont and
Morgan, had made overtures to let the
United States have any amount of gold
needed.
The statement, it is learned, is accu.
rate SO far as concerns the fact that
Russia rendered the United States Il
part of it's store of gold. but the natural
inference that this offer was a recent
one, made in consequence of the late
Venezuelan message and the subse-
quent panic,. is not warranted, for it
may be asserted positively and on eN-
cellent authority, that the tender was
in no manner influenced by the compli-
cations now existing between the
United States and Great Britain as the
result of the negotiations over the
Venezuelan boundary question, and
was, in fact, made two years ago.

Enr the Relief of Tories.

In 1888 bill went rapidly through
parliament appointing a commission
to inquire into the losses of the 10y
alists. The sufferers were scattered
all over the United States and the
British possessions, while many of
them were lying in English prisons
for debts which they had no means
of discharging Many years had
passed away since the majority had
been driven from their homes, and
the difficulties of inquiry and assess
ment of loss were immense. 1T viii
be sufficient to say that the commits
sion took seven years to complete its
task. OF course only small minor
ity Of the loyalists were so situated
as to be able to present and prove
their claims, for the obvious open
ings for fraud were so great that tho
proceeding had to be of Il most thor
ough and sometimes even offensive
description. An average of about 40
per cent of the value Of the loss on
proved claims was paid. Confiscated
estates were only the least difficult
of these assets to deal with.
A mass of old debts were due by
individual Americans to the refu-
gees, and these We're often impossi-
BILE of legal proof, for the debtor
who had repudinted his private obi
cations, either with the open or tacit
sanction of his government, would
be in no harry to assist in proclaim
ing himself defaulter. Nearly
"a, 600, 900 III all was paid as com
pensation, representing about G10,
600, 900 actually proved in court
as lost. There is not the slightest
doubt, however, that even this latter
figure was but fraction Of the to-
tai loss incurred-Maomillan's Mag
azine.

Man and Beas; Fear Them MS They Do 2
Pestilence.

Man and Beast Fear Them as They Do z.
Pe-tilence.
The most remarkable insect of
South Africa is the driver ant, the
Anomma arcens of the scientist.
This ant resembles the ordinary
ant, except in size 1t is much
larger, VARYING from quarter to
three-quarters of an inch in length.
The color is a dark brownish black.
The head is large and powerful, and
the mandibles are so curved that
they cross when closed Thus they
grasp their prey so tightly that it IS
impossible to loosen their hold with
out tearing the flesh.
But the most curious thing about
this species is that neither the male
nor female has as yet been discover
ed. This may seem TO be a paradox,
but the driver ant is the worker
and, as is the case with bees and
several other insects, has neither
sex
This creature IS called the driver
ant on account of its manner OF
travelling. Countless thousands, nay,
millions of them, travel in armies
across the country. Their column Is
from five 10 ten feet across and Is
sometimes miles in length. They
drive everything before them. No
living being can withstand their on
slaught, for they will attack the
largest animals if molested, leaving
, nothing but skeleton behind.
On the approach of an army Of
driver ants toward village the in
habitants Immediately vacate, tax
ing to the wood. or, if lake or
stream IS near, going out in canoes,
knowing that 1t IS useless to Try 70
fight the ants. Entering the town,
they fl every dwelling, devoUrins
everything edible in it and clearing
it entirely OF all vermin. Then they
pass on, leaving the house as clean
as a whistle.
These creatures have been Oh
served eatinga fowl, and their man
ner Of SO doing Is curious. First they
make PAIN or road IRON the bird
to their nest. clearing it OF every
thing movable. Then, commencing
at the bill, they pluck out every
feather. When the bird is plucked,
the ants proceed TO bite off small
pieces, which they convey to their
house. When they are through, the
skeleton is as white as if it had been
scraped with knife.
Driver ants are said to eat snakes,
beginning by biting the reptile
eyes, thus rendering it helpless. On
account Of this habit, the natives
say, the great python, after crush
ing and killing its prey, makes
circuit around it of a mile or so to
see if there is an army of these ants
approaching, and, if so, leaves the
victim to them, realizing its own
helplessness after it has eaten the
food.
