Acloque, the naturalist, tells
us that the Sphex wasp innocu-

them to the edge of its nest, and
then visits the inner gallery to
see if all is ready for their re-

victim in, it seals up the open
ing. If, however, while the
wasp is examining its inner cell,
the cricket be removed, "the
Sphex at first shows great anx-
iety, turns around and rushes
hither and thither. Finally, it
returns to its burrow and sets to
work conscientiously to seal up
the opening, as if the cricket
were within"
Mr.. Cooper is political
Sphex. Present signs strongly
indicate that the cell he is SO
busily sealing mp, is empty.

COURT-MARTIAL ORDERED.
Investigate Charges Against Ester
hazy Growing Out Of the
Dreyfus Case.

Paris, Dec. 4.-The military governor of
Paris, Gen. Saussier, has ordered court
martial to examine into the charges
brought against Count Ferdinand Wal
sin Esterhazy, the retired major of the
French army, who is accused of writing
the letter which brought about the SEN
fencing of Alfred Dreyfus 10 imprisOn-
ment for life. The Journal says that the
decision of Gen. Saussier is based on the
report of Gen. PellieuX, who was appoint
ed by the minister of war to examine into
the charges brought against Count Els
terhazy and which was as follows:
$50 far as Dreyfus is concerned, the
case has been tried, no new facts have
been brought to light and no new dOcu-
ments have been submitted to Justify a
revision of the trial. In consequence,
there is nc ground for proceeding against
Esterhazy, so far as regards the crime of
high treason for which Alfred Dreyfus
was condemned.'
Later in the day a brief official an
nouncement was made of the decision of
Gen. Saussier regarding the report Of
Gen. PellieuX. 1t was as follows:
"Gen. Saussier has ordered a court
martial to be instituted for an investiga-
ton into the affair of Maj. Esterhazy.'
Both sides say they are pleased with
the announcement
