That insects think is the belief of q
French neurolOglst who has been max
ing careful observations of ants and
bees. He thinks that, between the
ideas of the naturalist who regards in
sects as mere autOmatons and those of
the man who treats. them as humanity
intelligent, there is happy medium of
common sense, and this he has tried to
attain. His observations teach him
that, although most of the acts of In.
sects can be explained by instinct,
there remain what he calls small
plastic judgments" by which they
avoid difficulties and steer their way
beyond dangers. The directive faculty
Of bees especially and their wonderful
memory for places can hardly be ex-
planned on the theory of automatism.

Buried Alive at MeIaka.

BY the caving in of well on the
place of Mr.. Hutohins, at Welaka.
last week Wednesday, Charles Wal
lace an old and highly regarded cit
izen of that place lost his life, being
buried alive by the falling dirt which
covered him to the depth of II feet.
Mr.. Hutchins and Mr.. Wallace
went out to the well, which had
showed signs of caving for day or
two, owing to the heavy rains. There
is d board walk that runs from the
house to the well, and Mr.. Rutchins
stood OH the walk while Mr.. Wallace
went round to the other side, where
he stood with his hands on the curb
ing. While thus standing he re-
marked that he conld feel the earth
beneath him giving. Then he step
ped back, and as he stepped let go
his hold on the curbing. No sooner
had he done this than the ground
gave way suddenly under him and
he was carried deep into the well.
Mr.. Hutchins who stood on the walk
says that at first Mr.. Wallace was
only buried up to the arm pits and
that he had caught hold of the chain,
with which he then attempted to pull
him out. Finding this was impossi-
BILE, owing to the suction of water
and sand underneath, he told Wal
lace to hold on to the chain while he
went for help. But just as he step
ped away there was another cave in
which filled the entire well and bur
led the unfortunate man to great
depth.
1t took large force of men till
night to get the body which was COW
cred by fully II feet of earth. The
funeral was held the following day.
Mr.. Wallace was Scotchman who
came to Welaka over 20 years ago.
He was without family, and II man
held in universal esteem.

Flowing the water.

A curious method of producing plat
mum is reported to be practiced by the
inhabitants along the Tura river, in
Tomsk, Siberia. They call it blowing
the water" A raft is constructed, and
fastened to it is an inclined gutter of
boards, which at its lower end is pro-
vided with an iron pillow. While float
ing down the river they scrape or'plow
its bottom. The sand scraped out falls
into the gutter and passes into tub
filed with pine bOughs, upon which
platinum is deposited. The sand of the
Tura river and its tributaries is so rich
In platinum that even this primitive
production is profitable to the peasants.
