Spoil Is Carried Off.
A writer in British periodical de-
scribes an encounter he saw In
large aquarium at Brighton. He was
watching some young herrings swim
ming about close to the bottom of the
tank, when the claw of hermit crab
suddenly shot out and caught one.
The capture had. however been seen
by another hermit crab, which at once
claimed a share. and a most amusing
chase began. Unable alone to achieve
his object, No. 2 went off, but present
ly returned with friend. with whose
help It succeeded in effecting a cap
ture. But the chase had aroused the
interest of the hermit-erab colony, and
presently from fifteen to twenty of
them were engaged in furious battle
for the herring. Then occurred the
most amusing episode of all Out of
the struggling mass there crawled a
hermit crab. dragging the body. some,
what dilapidated by now, of the her
ring, with which 1t quietly retired be-
hind a rock out of sight Of its com
panions and proceeded to make a
meal. while all the others continued
to fight.
