ANTS A GOOD DEAL LIKE Us.
Some Interesting Facts About Their
Domestic Economy.
(Harvey Sutherland in Ainslee's.

(Harvey Sutherland in Ainslee's)
There is a lot that is human about
these little ants. They like to play and
cut up; they make believe to fight, and
when they wrestle in fun they roll all
around like school-boys. They wash
and brush each other and stretch out
under the process as much as to say
My! that feels goodp When they sleep
they often lie on their sides, and some
times squat down on their abdomen
and the last pair of legs for all the
world like a man taking nap. When
they wake up they cape and stretch
themselves, and all but say. 'Ho hum.
They always wash themselves and
comb their hair as soon as they get up,
and that without having to be told like
some little persons know, but will not
name here.
"They are like us in keeping pets
about the house. Andre counted 5S4
species of insects, nearly all of them
beetles. that are habitually to be found
in ants nests. They must be there with
their consent, for an interloper is in
stantly killed. Soma of them are milch-
cattle, like the aphides. such as cater
pillars that give syrup and the little
blind BEETLE claviger, which secretes
honey from a tuft at the base of its
wings. If one of these clavigers is put
into the nest of strange ants they fall
uron it and slaughter it at once. Some
kinds of wood lice are kept as scaven-
gers, and the silverfish or bristletail
and the larva of the elater BEETLE are
handy to have around to do the heavy
digging under the supervision of the
workers. Many of these domesticated
animals are unable to feed themselves.
Lespes saw some ants eating sugar. A
I.omechusa of their nest came up and
nuzzled them till they fed it. After
ward it climbed up on the lump of SUI
gar, but did not seem to know how
to get the good of 1t for itself. But also

Then there is another little ant in
these nests that is by no means a pet.

CITY COURT CRIMINALS.
Nellie Wright Given Twelve Months
on Charge of Vagrancy.

Nellie Wright Given Twelve Months
on Charge of vagrancy.
The usual assortment of misdemean-
or defendants appeared before Judge
Norwood in the City Court yesterday,
but not a great many were railroaded
to the changing. Several of those
convicted managed to get hold of
enough money to pay their fines.
Nellie Wright, alias Scotch Nell an
aged white woman, who has given the
police no end of trouble, and who is
fenced to serve twelve months on a
charge of vagrancy.N Nellie was given
thirty days by Recorder Myrick for
drunkenness several days ago, and was
also remanded for trial in the higher
court. Scotch Nell heard Evangelist
Sam Jones when he talked to the pris-
oners in Jail, and was one of his con-
verts among the county prisoners. The
unfortunate woman had only been out
of prison a few hours when she was
re-arrested on the usual charge of
drunkenness.
Robert Johnson, j. c. Smith and Ju-
liza Sims, the three negroes charged by
Patrolman Thorpe with melting riot,
were dismissed.
Willie Page, a colored Juvenile, was
given nine months on a charge of
vagrancy.
Enoch Dukes, an old offender who
stole a bicycle lamp, was sentenced to
serve nine months.

The Cost of the steel strike.
From Leslie's Weekly.


The plea of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation for arbitration is the best evil
dence of the failure of the strike. What
this unfortunate affair has cost will
probably never be fully known. 1t is
said that the loss to the United States
Steel Corporation, by the stoppage of
its mills, has been over $4,000 a. day
and the loss of the striking employees
not less than 100000 a day. Estimat-
ing the aggregate losses at only $780,
900 a day, it will be seen that it
amounts to a million dollars every four
days, or at the rate of $6,000,00O a
month. But this is not all. The strike
has diverted many orders from Ameri-
can consumers of finished goods to
Great Britain. So great has been this
transference of business that the Brit
ish iron trade has been reused from its
depression by it and looks for a decided
revival of trade this fall. unless the
strike should be speedily settled. Some
of this diverted trade will be retained
by British and German manufacturers
and will be lost for many years, If not
forever to us. This is one of the most
serious phases of the strike, and I'M
fortunate one which apparently has
escaped the attention of the mill work.

her managers give her. Her Becky
Sharp is not particularly striking, but
her acting is even and pretty and she

Her supporting company was ordin-
ary. Not a role can be selected for
especial praise, though the more inn

Farce comedy Is undoubtedly the most

1nent. because in addition to amusing
an audience and distracting their at

day it gives them their very first
chance to near the NEWEST anu DrlgnJ-

elastic, and will allow of constant
changes and the introduction of new
and catchy material. and while the
thread of the story is never broken, it
IL capable of being strengthened by
the addition of the latest song jokes.
"McFadden's Row of Flats" is no ex-
ception to the rule; it is a rafting
farce, built on the lines that please all
classes. The company presenting the
