government matters, of which distri-
button of the weather forecasts may
be the first upon an extending list.

Congress is often criticised on ac-
count of the speed with which the pas
sage of pension bills is rushed. Eighty
Sour bills in forty-fve minutes is a
recent record of the senate. But II
should be remembered that every one
Of the bills had been carefully exam
ined by a committee, and was accom-
panied by a printed report setting
torth the facts thus ascertained. II
Congress were to devote to every pen
sion bill the time necessary to discuss
a tariff bill, it would have time lett
for nothing else.

lege, Baltimore, adds some interesting
testimony on the subject in letter to
Science. One of his students discover
ed that a colony of black ants YVES

by sounds of one particular pitch.
Other sounds did not affect them, but
when the peculiar note was struck,

the ants would become excited, and II
the sounds were continued would grow
frantic, some of them falling into a
water moat surrounding their nest.
Ants of other species paid no attention

Too much business pressure seems
to be responsible for the fact that Chi
cago's gang of porch-climbers succeeds
in evading apture. The police, accord
ing to recent victim Of the burglars,
are always too busy to attend to such
cases and the porch-climbers are en-
gagged in so fourishing a trade that
they have no time to bother with po-
licemen.
