why Spiders Are Not Insects.

The spider is not an insect, though
probably nine people out of ten would
class it under this term. With scor.
plons and mites spiders form class in
the animal Kingdom known as Arach-
nida. This name is derived from a
mythical parsonage called Arachne.
the daughter Of purple dyer of Lydia,
who was tabled to have challenged
Minerva to trial of skill in spinning.
So indignant was the goddess at this
act Of boldness that she forthwith
transformed the hapless challenger
into spider, presumably in order that
she might have the best possible op-
portunity of practicing the art on
which she prided herself so much.
Spiders differ from insects in five
main particulars. Their eyes are sim
pie instead Of compound, they have
eight legs in place of six, they do not
pass through the metamorphoses
which are characteristic of insects.
they have no antenn@ and their
breathing is accomplished by means of
organs which combine the functions of
lungs and gills. instead of by tubes
pervading their bodies. These points
Of distinction are sufficient to deter
mine the fdct that it is impossible to
class spiders as insects.

to the sultan Of JClo, with whom he
exchanged presents, says:
"The trip has considerably broad
ened my views, as well as afforded me
great pleasure personally. What I
have seen should be of considerable
benefit to the government. In my
opinion the changes now being made
in the Philippines could not be car
ried out by ADLER hands than those Of
Governor Taft and General Chaffee.
Both have had wide experience. Both
are men Of tact and ability. Their du-
ties are entirely separate and yet in
many ways cooperative. One could
not very well go forward without the
other. am gratified to observe the
firm friendship established between
them, and am confident that under
their guidance the Philippines will get
out of troubled into peaceful waters"

Citizens Of Tampa, Fla, kidnap Every
Prominent Striker.
Tampa, Fla, Aug. 1.-THE strike sit
uation here is one of bewilderment on
the part Of the strikers and immovable
determination on the part of the citi-.
zens. The latter have taken matters
into their own hands and az a result
every prominent leader OF the strikers
is missing. The first to be kidnapped
were taken at an open air meeting to
which all the Resistefcia leaders had
been invited, the purpose being to
catch them all in bunch. The cap
tured leaders were at once driven to
the county jail, where they remained
on the outside under guards for few
minutes. Then they disappeared and
have. not been seen or heard Of since.
Various rumors as to their disposition
have been circulated in the city, It
being most generally reported that
they were taken into the gulf in an
unknown and mysterious vessel. All
of the deported strikers were Span
iards or Cubans.
Later 10 more strikers who are
among the sub-leaders we're deported.
Some. Of the strikers have held meet
ings during the day secretly and have
conferred with a number Of lawyers
with view Of taking some action. No
one would take the case. They also
appointed new committees to carry on:
the work, and In the case Of each com
mittee, five different ones were Gre.
ated SO that when one is taken away
another will take its place.

THE SEARCH CONTINUES.
Seven Dead and Over Sixty Injured
Found at Philadelphia.

Found at Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Aug. 7.-Seven dead.
or probably fatally injured and
more than 60 other persons hurt more
or less seriously, is the latest revised
record Of the explosion in the block of
Tenth street, in this city. How many
more victims, if any, are still in the
ruins, will not be known until the
debris has been cleared away, which
will require many more hours of hard
work. Undeterred by the incessant
rain, the work of searching for the
dead has been kept up continuously
during the "a hours since the ex.
plosion occurred. Temporary electric
lights have been erected at the scene
of the explosion and 2GN men, under
the direction of the department Of
public safety, are vigorously pursuing
the search. Many of the residents Of
the neighborhcod believe there are
more bodies in the wreckage. There
are several persons missing, but as
some of these had no known perman.
ent place Of residence, it cannot be
stated to a certainty that they ara
buried in the ruins.
The police and fire officials are max.
Ing search for the cause Of the ex,
plosion, but they have no positive
proof as to its cause. They hold to
the theory that gasoline did the dam.
age, and that it had been stored in one
of the three grocery stores. The off,
cials are inclined to believe that the
explosion occurred in the McClemmy
store, which was in the middle of the
block. McClemmy, who is badly in
jured, claimed that he had only q
gallon of the oil in his place and that
he kept 1t in the rear of the building.

Pittsburg, Aug. The die is cast.
The battle of the giants is on in earn
est, whether to ignominous defeat of
one side or the other, or compromise,
remains to be seen. Up to this time
it. has been merely q skirmish. each
side trying to find the Vulnerable spot
in the others armor. Now 1t is differ
ent, brought about by the actual 5is-
suance by President Shaffer Of the
long talked of general, strike order.
This order was promulgated to take
effect after the last turn Of the mills
on Aug. 10. What the result will be
no man can foretell, but judging by
the expressed determination of both
parties to the controversy the battle
will be waged fast and furiously. Much
money will be lost, thousands upon
thousands of men will be idle, great
suffering is looked for, even bloodshed
and death are possible and feared.
/ The strike call includes practically
alb Amalgamated men in the United
States Steel corporations employ not
now on strike. 1t was issued from the
Amalgamated association headquart-
ers and mailed to all Amalgamated
lodge officials who are expected to call
their men into the strike. The text
of the call follows:
Brethren: The officials OF the
United States Steel trust have refused
to recognize as union men, those who
are now striving for the right to or
ganize. The executive board has au-
thorized me to issue call upon all
Amalgamated and other
Union Men In Name and Heart
to join in the movement to fight for
labor's rights. We must fight or give
up forever our personal liberties. You
will be told that you have signed con-
tracts, but you never agreed to sur.
render those contracts to the United
States Steel corporation. It's officers
think you were sold to them just as
the mills were, contracts and all. Re-
member, before. you agreed to any
contract you took an obligation to the
Amalgamated association. It now
calls you to help in this hour of need.
Unless the trouble is settled on or
before Saturday, Aug. 10, 1901, the
mills will close when the last turn is
made on that day. Brethren, this is
the call to preserve our organization.
We trust you and need you. Come
and help us and may right come to
just cause"
President Shaffer added this state
ment: "The call goes to the vice pres
tdents of the districts in which there
are mills, owned and operated by the
National Steel, National Tube and
Federal Steel companies, as well as
to the officials of the lodges in the
mills.
mo notice has been, or is being
sent, to the managers Of the mills.
We think their notice has come from
the other side and that they have had
warning of this ever since the in
auguration Of the strike. That ought
to be sufficient"

Senator Tiilman Speaks on the Raoo
Question at Marinette, Wis.
Marinette, Wis, Aug. 5.-United
States Senator Benjamin F. Tillman
of South Carolina addressed large
audience on the race question from a
Southern standpoint.
I'm Wisconsin you have 5000 black
men," he said. "Why don't you try
the bleaching process and exterminate
them by intermarrying? The idea is
repugnant to you. In South Carolina
we have 100000 blacks and $4,000
whites. The carpetbaggers, the mig
ger and the Southern scalawags and
scoundrels ruled us after the war until
they had stolen everything that there
was in the state, then we went with
our shotguns to the polls and took it
away from them. All men are not
created equal and the 'niggers' are
not fit to vote. Come what may the
white people of the South will gov
ern their own country"
He condemned Booker Washing
tons scheme of educating the negro
along industrial lines as an attempt
to place him on an equality with the
white artisan, something that would
only intensity race hatred in the
South. He said that among the A.
100000 of slaves during the Rebellion
there were more Christians than there
are today among the 100000 blacks
in the South.
II do not want to uphold slavery"
he continued. II thank God there are
no slaves today under the Stars and
Stripes"
Mr.. Tillman made an eloquent plea
in justification of lynching, saying
that Southern women could not be
brought into court to testify to their
shame and degradation before a Jury
for the purpose of convicting a beast.
He closed with an lmpassioned state.

pie of the South would. remain on top

. Havana, Aug. 6.- General Maxine
Gomez has written to his friend, Gen.

Estrada Palma as annexationists.
After remarking that he had come.
upon a reference to the matter in a
local paper in Puerto Principe, he
says:
ITO pretend that Senor Palma and
I are annexationists is madness. The
best way to carry out a plan is to
speak much Of 1t. For this reason It
appears that many Cubans desire an
nexation and look to most Of the
prominent chiefs Of the revolution to
support the movement, out they have
tried to convert to the doctrine some
very old heretics. The Platt law
solved the question. The constitu.
tional convention was not to blame,

This is credited us one Of General
Lew Wallace's Turkish Jokes: There

he was endowed with oriental wit that
stood him well In hand when he was in
q tight place. A neighbor called on 1s-
mail one day and wanted to borrow his
donkey to use an hour. Ismail made
low salaam and said:
"Neighbor, am sorry but my boy
started on the donkey an hour ago to
Scutari. BY now he is gayly trotting
over the hills far from the sacred pre-
cincts Of Stamboul."
Just as Ismail finished his speech
donkey's loud bray was heard in the
stable. which was under the same roof
as Ismail's house, but in the rear. The
neighbor said:
"Ah, hear your donkey bray"
Ismail protested that his neighbor's
ears were deceived and that the noise
was not donkey's bray. Then the
donkey, which was supposed to be jog
cling along toward Scutarl, brayed
twice loudly. 1t was too much. and
the neighbor cried:
"Oh, that is your donkey, Ismail. Al
lah help me. can now borrow him."
Then Ismail said:
(Which do you believe is lying, the
donkey or me?'
The neighbor had to give Ismail the
benefit of the doubt and went away.
