There are certain large sea spiders, two
feet from toe to toe. called Collosendefs
gigas, that live in the water and feed
entirely upon mollusks and worms.
The carnivorous wolf spider. an am
phibious inhabitant of the tropical re-
gions of South America, is said to prefer
fish diet, though it is not averse to eat
ing mice. young birds and even snakes,
resembling in this respect the theraphosi-
dae or bird catching spiders of India and
Queensland. some Of which equal rat
in size.
The collosendeis is the most formidable
specimen of the spider family, measuring
six inches around the body and possess
ing 12 long, hairy legs, with which it
grips its iinny prey. 1t attacks fish sew
eral times larger than itself and after
biting them through the back and sting
ing them to death, gluts itself by sucking
the juices from the bodies Of its victims.

A FINE PRODUCTION.
Nat. GoOdwin's the Most No'h"''
Enpapement OF the season.

The most notable theatrical engagement
OF this season was that OF Mr.. Nat C.
Goodwin. who yesterday presented az the
Academy. both matinee and evening
CLYDE FHtchs four-act play. Nathan
Hale" There was n very large audience
at the matinee. and at the evening per
torrance every seat In the house was DC,
cupied and the orchestra was compelied
10 vacate the pit and discourse the
music from the top gallery.
The play was one of intense heart IN
terest though there was a refreshing
vein of humOr that pervaded IT, ana re-
lieyed the piece of much or the sadness
which gradually replaced the lignt ana
happy spirit of the first act, until the
curtain descended on the final scene, the
most pathetic OF all. when Nathan Hale
stands IN the apple orchard. just as the
dawn ia breaking, and awaits MS ,AIcu-
tion. IL is a play that rlngs with pa
triotlc sentiment and nres me heat IS oi
the spectators with the spirit OF the
American revolutionists; 1t Is play tnat
presents a charming picture or love
young dream. though the sequei LOT TWO
at least. is a touching and patneuc end
ing for such bright hopes.
Miss Maxine Elliott deserves TO snare
more than equally with her husband the
credit Of the excellent performance. 10
her falls the most artistic work or the
play. Too much cannot be SAID IN praise
OF her CharaCterlZdllOu. III ihc III - q"
she is the charmingly ingenious scnoOi-
girl and her love scene with Nathah
must call vivid memories 10 many WO-
man. In short, she is delightfully."- gem
uine in speech and manner. In the second
act she is still the girl, though All the
womanliness I'm her is brought out by
the course of events in this act. \
splendid opportunity Is given her In tns
next act, which she makes the most or
but IL is in the parting scene with Ma
than Hale. when the latter is about 70
be led to his execution, that she puts
forth her finest effort. She says not a
word. but her heart-brOken sObs are more
eloquent than any utterance that could
be made. She Is not wild in her grietf u
is a sorrow that is beyond expression IN
words. and like a woman she bears II.
MIR Goodwin bore himself throughout
i'm a manner characteristic of the actor.
A role drawn somewhat on heroic lines
is not lust what the public Is accus-
toned TO I'm the comedian, but Mr.. Good
win enacted it with dignity and quiet
force that made the character stand out
boldly and clearly Indeed. his lmperso-
nation was 4 surprise 10 many, who dld
not think him capable OF ms new roie.
The supporting company was entirely
satisfactory in every respect. Miss Ger
trude Elliott was delightful as Angelica,
and Miss Mortimer supplied a deal or
humor I'm Mistress Knowlton. Mr. VIII
liam IngersOll was a very good Guy fltz-
row and Messrs. Thomas Oberle and
Clarence Handyside Neil O'Brien. Thur
low Berger. and Richard Sterling were
All entirely acceptable. The play was
splendidlv mounted and staged.
