A MATTER OF CHOICE.

They DO a heap of taIkin'
Bout the man behind the gun.
They're always singin' of the deeds
This man has bravely done.
We're ah proud of this hero,
Who bears the battles brunt-
But I'd rather be behind the gun
Than staGdin' cut in front
I'd rather squint along the sights
Than to be squnted at; =
I'd rather see tho breech-block than
The muZZie-tell you that
More fun in bein' hunter
Than the object of the hunt
So, I'd rather be behind the gun
Than dodgin round in front
In fact. to put II plainer.

Out where the other fghtin' men
Could get shot at me;
And just about the moment

From the London Standard.
If one might trust books of travel and
popular descriptions of foreign lands, the
tarantula would be about the
most widely distributed of liv
ing things. Other wild creatures
have their habitat; they dwell in this con-
tinent, zone or region, and not elsewhere
So do plants in their natural condition
But we hear of the tarantula all over the
globe-in the southern cHmes at least He
is found in every part of Africa, or al
most, if we believe reports. From Mexico
to Patagonia men dread him. In China,
India, Australia, New Zealand, and the
Malay countries he is Identified. This uni
Versal presence gets a little irritating 10
persons who care for natural history. II
the word is TO be used as a general eX-
preston for large or poisonous spiders
let it be so entered in dictionaries and
taught in schools. one could not well find
a greater contrast between species in out
ward appearance than that presented by
the real tarantula and most of the Great
ures 10 which that name Is granted nova
days. The one, dwelling in narrow dis
trict. of Southern Italy, is small gray
harmless, if we may venture to defy an
cient and modern history, popular science,
legends of the saints, folklore by saying
SO; the other is large and terribly veno-
nous, clothed in hrownish-black motted
fur. This wide dntuslon OF the name IS
rather a curious instance of the power of
myth or fable. 1t would be hard to find a
person in these islands who is used to
read unacquainted with the legend of the
tarantula but, perhaps, those who under
stand what sort of an object il really is
are almost as uncommon. IL is the gem
eral idea no doubt,that this famous arach-
mid has a size proportionate TO his Tenown,
and when the ordinary Briton comes
across a very big spider in foreign parts
he has a name for it handy. But the un-
scientific are not the only offenders. In
the Memorabilia of Xenophon there is an
interesting passage where Socrates speaks
of the phalangia, and draws moral from
it. Are you not aware" says he, that

Baltimore six years ago, has not yet aban-
doned its hope. She has cost $275 900, and
was once sold for $500. The vessel is 225
feet long and but 16 feet wide. She is the
model Of style of craft which is expected
to cross the Atlantic in four days but she
has never proved a success.

Bradstreet's, in its issue of Saturday,
says that 1.-THE feature of the trade
situation this week is the renewed
strength of wheat ard other cereals,
iron and steel, and last, but not least,
the raw wool, which has heretofore
Jagged behind other staples in a dis
couraging way. The price making
features in cereals are not entirely of
an encouraging character, being chiefly
the less favorable reports as to the
growing crop West and Northwest, and
advices of insect damage influencing
Western markets toward higher plane
in face of diseouragingly small ex-
port business, caused in some degree
by the continuance Of the strike of
grain handlers at Buffalo, checking the
movement of large quantities of grain
to the seaboard. The added strength
in iron is based largely upon heavy
buying of pig iron in the Central West,
sympathetically influencing prices at
all markets. Reports are of old and
new furnaces going into blast, but these
| advices and the new plants projected to
be built apparently do not reassure
consumers, who are beginning to place
orders for the first part of next year at
present prices. Excitement in iron is
not confined entirely to this country,
however, as shown by speculative adj
vance at leading British markets, but
a sample Of the irreeularity caused by
the immense current worlds demand is
furnished in the case of foreigners
seeking supplies in this country at the
same time that orders for rails have
been placed by American companies
with English makers. Foreign wool
4 markets continue above American,
heavy sales of Australian woods for re-
export are reported and available sup
plies of this class of wool are nearly
exhausted at Boston. Business failures
