nishes air for the young until they are

for themselves.
But as much as this spider lives un-
der water it IS always dry. No matter
| how long it may have been swimming
around under the surface. the moment
ii comes to the top there is no trace Of
moisture in it. The reason of this is
| that the air particles that cling t. its
hair keep off the water and prevent it
from soaking through the skin. An
ether strange thing about it is that il
can swim with great speed in spite OF
its balloon-like burden.
The best way to watch the water
spider is to place one i'm a vessel filed
with water and containing some wa
ter plant There it will quickly spin its
web. and if fed on flies and bugs lead
its aquatic existence.
The eggs of this spider are laid in
cocoon. shaped something like the top
OF round dish. 1t generally contains
hundred or more eggs.

CHALLENGER IMPROVES.
Almost Daily Now She Does Better Work Thar
Shamrock l.

Rothesay, Firth of Clyde. July TO-
Another open water trial Of the sham
rocks was started at about II o'clock
Wednesday morning, off Bogany Point
III ma Of Butte The challenger allowed
the older boat to get well away to
windWard and several lengths ahead
thus permitting her to get the first Of
the fresh OF shore wind.
The Shamrock | maintained all her
advantage to Kilchattan but the chal-
longer then picked up rapidly and
passed the ex-challenger clear to lee
ward after a clever bit Of sailing.
In Kilchattan bay the two Sham
rocks had Il couple Of windward trials
of eight and seven miles respectively.
The cup challenger finished the first
race half mile in the lead. In the
second race she started to leeward but
worked out to windward and won by a
minute.
The wind later frcsheHed 10 quite l6
knots and the water was whitecapped.
The challenger. however. continued 10
sail in good form. She easily outfooted
the Shamrock | in beating to wind
ward and was also faster in going
free.
Calculated on set match. today.
around a @n-milc course. the challenger
would have beaten the Older boat by
about five minutes.

Newport. Il. l.. July 10.-Thc third
race between the Constitution, Column
bia and Independence came To an in
glorious end, late this afternoon, in q
dead calm and the thickcst kind of Al
lantic fog. There was little time 10
form Judgment on the relative speeds
of the three boats, for in less than half
an hour, after the start the boats ran
into the fog and at no time after that
could all three be seen ut one time.
a little over an hour after the start
the Constitution Withdrew and came
back to the city. The Columbia and
Independence stood on for the outer
mark which they rounded with the Co
lumbia about a mile in the lead. The
wind however, died down almost to IL
calm and the leading boat could not
finish in the time limit. The race was
therefore off and Will be sailed over,
tomorrow. At the time the tonstitu-
tion withdrew she WIS leading the Co
lunbia in the beat to Windward by
nearly mile and the Independence by
nearly two miles.
The feature of the day was the mag
nificcnt navigation of Capt. Charlie
Barr in the Columbia. In Il fog so thick
that it was at times impossible To see
from one end of the finish line to the
other he brought his boat sure and
true 10 the outer mark and rounded in
magnificent style.
Another feature was the remarkably
close start. only four seconds elapsing
between the first and last boats TO
cross. The Independence. the last boat
to cross. was only seven seconds be-
hind the strating gun.

Constitution followed her at 1.O9.35 The
Independence fingered a little longer

The next time they tackled was ia

tion l.23; Independence 12ilO. Two
or three more tacks were made but
they had no significance, the Consti-
tuition being ahead until all were lost
in the fog.
The independence reached her moor
ings about o'clock, much to the re-
lief of capt. iEaT and all on board. a
