and the nut hatch often makes very little
nest at all, but plasters up the superfiuous
part of the entrance with fine cement. The
return of birds for ages to the same nest
ing place can be explained on more than
one supposftion. But is 1t yet known how
astonishingly far back their memory goes?
It is pretty certain. for instance, that the
line of heathS and stony plains which runs
along the hinterland of Suffolk and Nor
folk. from Mildenhall to Thetford, was once
the border Of a sea. Shore plants still
grow there which are now only found by
the sea, and insects peculiar to the same
tracts. That sea disappeared ages ago.
Yet the little ringed plovers which once
bred by the margin of this prehistoric sea,
still go there regularly to nest, though the
whole breadth of Norfolk lies between it
and the ocean
Can any one who has watched birds
building fail to believe that this is an ac-
qufred habit, and that something more than
the mere capacity for making a nest has
been transmitted? 1t will be found that in
nearly every case they make such a nest
as Is best suited to the needs of their young
ones. and that it's construction is no more
automatic than the building of a summer
cottage. The birds are conscious. intelli-
gent actors all along. They often try three
or four sites before fixing on the final one
(Wrens are particularly given to these ex-
periments. and SO are rooks) They conceal
them with admirable art, and often adapt
the structure of the nest to such conceal
ment. When it is finished they often add
decoration for mere aesthetic pleasure
though this is entirely in the taste and dis
cretion of individuals. Even golden eagles
have been known to attempt rude ornament
by carrying sacks or strange roots to their
nests, and the reed warbler to adorn it's
nest outside with kingfshers' feathers.
These are marks that the birds are still
progressive the surest evidence that they
are not automatic.

Mr.. H. A. Taylor, assistant secretary Of
the treasury, wrote to the District Commits
sioners a few days ago calling attention to
the condition Of the sidewalks around the
treasury building and asking to be Informed
what steps had been taken or were contem-
plated toward placing them In a creditable
condition. The Commissioners have replied
to Mr.. Taylor, saying: 81
"An appropriation for laying the walk in
question. a portion Of it, was requested
Of Congress at the last session, 1t being ex-
planned to the committee that the regular
appropriation for repairing sidewalks and
curbs around reservations would not be suf-
ficient for the work. The members Of the
appropriation committee. personally exam
ined the walk, and although the amount re-
quested was allowed by the Senate, 1t was
removed in conference The Commissioners
are therefore unable to lay the walk as re-
Quested. fE-.

COLORADO's MONSTER SPIDERS.
A Scientific Investigation of Insec,
of Which Many Yarns Were Told.

A Scientific investigation of Insects
of Which Many Yarns Were Told.
Prof. E. T. Laughton has returned to his
home in New York after spending the VIM
ter in exploring the mountains near Buena
Vista, Col, and investigating the habits
Of a species OF monster spiders found In
the Middle Cottonwood Pass.
Little definite is known of these spiders.
but around them has been gathered mass
of Indian legend and prospectors' yarns
that rival those of 'Munchausen. Many
years ago these spiders lived In a cave
easily reached by tourists. 1t was in a
valley two miles northeast from Harvard
City. then a thriving mining camp eight
miles west of Buena Vista.
In 1880 q man named Shultz cut his way
into the spiders den. He did not return.
and a week later a searching party found
his body partly buried in the spiders cave
under mass Of fallen rock. As 1t would
have required considerable tmbering at an
expense of several hundred dollars to re-
cover the body, and as the man had no
known relatives. 1t was left undisturbed.
Shultz's skeleton is still in the cave, but
the spiders have FOUND another home fur
Their back in the mountains.
Some Of the tales told about these spiders
are given in an old letter which has Just
been found in Buena Vista 1t says:
"A short distance out of Buena Vista
there is a cave swarming with spiders of
immense size some of them having legs
four inches in length and bodies as large
as that of a canary bird. The cave was
discovered In 1868 and was often visited by
pioneers on their way to California, who
obtained their webs for use in the place of
thread.
Early and late the cave resounds with a
buzzfng sound emitted by the spiders as
they weave their webs. The webs were
tested In II and found to be composed of
silk Of the finest quality. The skins of the
spiders make good gloves. as they are pill
able and require no tanning.
"A number were captured and tanned
and manifested great affection for all MEN,
bers of the family. They were far superior
to cat in discriminating rats and mice,
following their prey into the hollis in the
walls and ceilings. One spider. kept as q
pet by Buena Vista lady, used to stay
all night at the head OF her bed acting as
sentinel"
