Nswspapsr Profits In London.

There was a trial before Mr.. Justice
Cave recently which, il correctly re-
ported, shows what is the profit Of the
shareholders of The Times. Mr.. Adams
bought one-fourteenth of two-thirds Of
one-ninth of two-sixteenths Tor l,5l2l
of The Times from Mr.. Brodie for 1858
on the assurance that this minute share
was worth about 925 per annum. Ac-
Cording to him, after he had purchased
the share, he found it only to be worth
ei7 a year. On this he asked for dam
ages. The jury assessed the damages at
$780, Assuming this share to be worth
e19 per annum (Which seems about the
average value), it is clear that the net
dividend ON all shares is g27, 916. Mr..
Adams, believing it to be worth 1858,
paid for it 14.1 years purchase The
jury valued it at 1888, which, taking
the annual return at els, would be 10
years purchase, making The Times
worth e435, 456. This, however, does
not quite correctly, / believe, represent
the value, for Mr.. Waller, as printer,
derives large profit on an old contract.
This contract, in point Of fact, represents
what may be called preference shares,
while those Of the shareholders may be
termed ordinary shares, the value Of The
Times being the sum total of both. -

Wasps and Flies.

The wasp is accepted as mathematical
Of irritability and petty malignity, but
even this much abused insect plays a
beneficial part in the work Of nature.
A number of wasps were seen by r. M.
Darlington of Bray, Ireland, buzzing
about his COWS. Closer inspection re-
vealed that they were all busy catching
flies. One white COW drew more wasps
than any of the others because the mo-
ment fly alighted it was seen at once
against the skin. When a wasp catches
a fly, it Immediately bites off both
wings, sometimes leg or two and oc-
casionally the head, Mr.. Darlington
saw some Of the wasps, when laden with
one fly, catch another without letting
go the first and then fly away with both.
There was constant stream Of wasps
carrying away flies, probably to feed the
Larvae in their nests, and returning again
to the COWS to catch more. In about 20
minutes Mr.. Darlington estimated that
between 800 and 400 flies were caught
on two COWS lying close to him.

inches long. These tracks are almost as
broad as they are long, and the stride
shows that the reptile" must have been

TOOK THE INDIANA BY STORM.
5000 citizens OF Halifax swarm Over Our
Wnrshlp.

HALIFAX, Aug. l5.-This has been a trying
day for the battlcship Indiana and her crew.
when Capt. Taylor announced last night that
no would admit the public on board his ship to-
day as she rested on tho blocks In tho dry dock.
he could not have expected the response that
followed or he might have been slower TO act on
tho generous impulse that prompted his action.
Tho painting was finished on tho lndiana's
bottom on saturday night and this forenoon
fourteen feet of water was lot into the dock.
From | o'clock, when 1t began, to 8, whom the
hour for tho public admission expired, thou.
sands OF people poured into the dry docks
enclosure. The crowd was far beyond the
capacity of the ship and soon a mass OF human
ity swarmcd not only over the decks OF the III
diana. but they good humorcdly jostlcd and
elbowcd ench other In u dense mass alongside
the ship. waiting a chance to pass the sentries
and get aboard.
The situation became dangerous and many
were in imminent peril of being forced over the
sides Of the dock and into the water, many feet
below. Capt. Taylor. whom the rush was at its
greatest. began to fear that he would have 10
rescind his order, send all visitors ashore. and
close tho dock gates. He refraincd from doing
this, however, but sent n body OF marines ashore
to keep back the throng and prevent accident.
An inclosure near the gangway to the ship
was roped Off, and mon were stationed along the
quay TO SEQ that mono was pushed overheard.
In this way order was preserved and disaster
averted. Several cases occurred OF women who
tainted from the heat and the pressure Of the
crowd. and one man in the throng was stricken
with a lit. Tho crowd numbered about 5000
persona.
This afternoon tho battleship was not only
! high and dry on British soil in the dry dock, but
she was in possession OF tho Halifax populace as
well. The Indiana will leave the dry dock at
noon tomorrow; then she will coal in the
stream. Her departure from Halifax depends
on tho orders received by Capt. Taylor. 1t is not
probable he will leave before Wednesday.
