 These singular animals are absolutely without wings; but their feet are gar nished with kind of nap of long hairs, and the extremity of the abdomen car ries hairy appendices something like feathers.

It Is interesting to know that yet an- other animal has long since solved the problem of aerial navigation-and one of as simple organization as the crustacean.
 The discovery was made quite recently in Russia.

 Next to this flying wonder comes the flying fish, which lives in tropical wat CTS. They have broad winglike mem branes on their long side fins. They leap through the air with rapidity for some twenty or thirty feet.

KLONDIKERS.

Connecticut has just sent it's first contingent to the Klondike. How many of them will live to return, and how many will come back rich, are questions impossible of present an- swers. Thousands and tens of thou sands are about to seek the Alaskan gold fields, and the history of other fields indicates that a great majority of the gold seekers will not be finders. All territory known to be gold bearing is already under stake and claim. and the new corners must prospect for and find new ground. Some will probably find placers, few will eventually dis cover the mother lode" and the re-
 nainder will drift back to their homes probably broken down physically, and certainly penniless. Men who will as- suredly "strike it rich" are those who furnish transportation, supplies, etc. at exorbitant prices.-Bridgeport Far mer.

The market ignored the heaviness of some of last weeks speculative favor ties and other stocks were taken up and pushed progressively. There was very obvious realizing in New York Central, Lake Shore, Rick Island and Sugar. The leaders of to-day's advance were Chesapeake and Ohio, Cleveland, C., c. and St. Louis, Louisville, Penn sylvania and Northern Pacific prefer red. The first two named were affect ed by the published rumors that an amalgamation was in prospect similar and Lake Shore. There was quite a large demand reported for Chesapeake and Ohio for London account, which was attributed to the presence in Lon don of prominent authority in that company. Other properties which are largely under similar control shared to a less extent in the strength. North ern Pacific preferred continued it's re- markable advanced and touched 69 during the day. Confident assertions that an additional dividend was immi- nent accompanied the advance. Louis vile continued to enjoy the advantage of the reports of refunding plan nearing completion. The strength of Pennsylvania was said to be due to the operations of a pool which are based on the assumption that the stock has not enjoyed a rise commensurate with that of other trunk lines which are no better situated. The sharp rise in Bal time and Ohia which, at the highest amounted to SIS, was unexplained by any news ofthe day. Strength in a number of the industrial specialties, notably Tobacco and Leather preferred and the advances of some of the high priced investment stocks and the strength of the coalers due to the prev alent cold weather helped to sustain | the market, and the continued large absorption of railroad bonds was an l additional factor. The tone of the grangers was heavy all day with the exception of Burlington, which rose at one time over a point, and of North west and Omaha, which moved in sym pathy with the Vanderbilts. There were several halts during the day due to the taking of quick profits and the 1 trading closed with a very general movement to that end, which embrac- ed all the strongest and most active stocks, cutting down their extreme gains in all cases. Sugar lost nearly all of it's early advance. London was both buyer and a seller in this mark et and Union Pacific and St. Paul felt | the adverse effect of this selling. Com mission house business was on large scale.
 Business in the bond market was on a very large scale, Kansas Pacific con- sols, the Union Pacific and Atchison is- l sues and the Texas and Pacific sec- | onds being in special demand. Prices are higher all around. Total sales $6, S4O,OOO.

stated that the Defender is still in condition to

noted that the yachts aluminium was so dlsn-
