HAS HEARD ANTS TALK.
So Thinks French Naturalist, and
the Reason for HIS Relief.
fChicago Chronicle J

Sir John Lubbock, as well rs many
other scientists, has OF course studied the
ant, but 1t has been given to French
man, NJ. Ferel, to make a discovery as
regards ants that proves them to bs-
possessed OF an Intelligence far greater
than has been hitherto supposed.
And this discovery Is nothing more or
less than that ants are capable OF pro-
ducing sounds Ineligible to- their Eel
lows, and even audible to our ears-in
other words, that they converse with one
another.
The way NJ. Ferel proved this was as
follows:
He made q glass funnel, one end small
or than the other, which he placed, the
small end downward, in the CO ntre Of a
square OF plain glass some six inches
wide, fitting closely enough to prevent
the little insects from crawling out un-
derneath.
He then took a number OF ants In a
bunch about the Size OF an ordinary horse
chestnut, free from any foreign sub
stances, and Hitting up the funnel,
dropped the cluster OF insects inside.
While the ants wers still in a state OF
bewilderment, and before any OF them
could reach the edge OF the glass, the ex-
psrimenter covered it with another square
similar 60 the one already in use, which
had been, surrounded a short distance
from It's edge by rim OF putty.
This effectually confined the little in
scots and prevented their being crushed,
Inc two plates OF glass were then
pressed together 70 within, approximate
Iy, the thickness OF an ants body, but
closer on one side than on the other SO
as to hold some fast and incapable of
moving, while others could move about
In their narrow prison where they liked.

these sounds conveyed some meaning, for

the minute utterances, which must have
been inteiligible to the tiny oaptives.
Then came the problem How was the
sound nader d.. Ferel proceeded 70 at
once make minute Investigations, and

Here, again, an interesting discovery
was In store for the Investigator. The
sides OF the little insects were found to be
in one particular place rough and scaly,
resembling-though, Of course, on tiny
scaie-the teeth of a saw. 10 was by rub
bling this that the ant made the sound
that had rewarded the scientist research.
nj. Ferel then took n couple OF ants and
confined them In the glass box already
described, imprisoning the one and
giving the other liberty TO move.
The ant that had free use OF his limbs
became at once intensely excited. IL
rushed about, making what must have
been--taking into consideration the COM

rible noise. Ths modulations OF the in

NORTH DAKoTA's NEW SENATOR.

NORTH DAKOTA'S NEW SENATOR.
Jerry J.. in Minneapolis Journal:
The Washington Times appears to
think that Senator McCumber of North
Dakota is to become one of the ora
tors Of congress. In a late issue it
said the following very complimentary
things about him:
After being "seen and not heard on
the floor of the senate during the early
part of the session, Senator McCumber
seems to have finally decided that he
will hereafter take part in the daily
discussions. He made a brief but
very creditable speech on the Puerto
Rican bill early last week, and yester-
day he made some remarks in opposi-
ton to Mr.. Hoar's amendment to the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill, to provide for the payment of $780,
900 and a $4,000 annuity to former
eueen Liluokalani. Soon after Mr..
McCumber resumed his seat Mr.. Bev-
eridge walked over, and, sitting down
near the formers desk, was for some
time engaged in conversation with
him. One of the older senator's not

members of the senate, and in the ar
ticle was a McCumber paragraph,
which / quote as a companion picture
of the paragraph from the Times:
Senator McCumber, a new man from
North Dakota, has also entered the
arena and shown himself to be a man
of more than common ability. He is
able to handle himself very well in de-
bate. He made his first essay the
other day during Senator Foraker's ex-
PLANTATION Of the Puerto Rican bill. The
questions he put and his brief argu-
ments showed a clear mind and a thor
ough knowledge of the subject under
consideration. Mr.. McCumber is a

elevators of the Peevy company being

the soil in the northwestern states is
