Manchurian Brigands.

Much has been written regarding the
trouble that the Russians have had
with the Huhnuses. These mysteri-
GUS people are not a distinct race or
semi-savage people, as 1t commonly
thought They are only common, ev-
ery-day Chinese or Manchus who find
it more profitable and less arduous to
wander over the country, selling
wealthy merchants for ransom, rob-
bling remote farms and villages, at
tacking travellers and looting carts on
the great highways. than it would be
to drive animals or till the soil. Their
suppression is not easy, for the vast
stretches of wilderness which abound
in Manchuria offer secure retreat. So
numerous are these banditti, and In
some districts so perfect is their or
ganization, that they have constructed
fortified encampments, and In large
bands not infrequently attack Russian
stations.

NO REASON SHOWN BY BIRDS.
They Are Governed by Instinct o"'
That Instinct Is Flexible.


The recent English writer, Rlcharu
Kearton. says there is mo such ueuu
level of unreasOning instinct III TIC

and he seems to base the remark upon
the fact that he found certain Vi TIC
cavities or holes in hay rick where
snarrovs rocked lined with feathers'
and others not lined, writes Johh Dur
roughs in Outing. Such departures
from q level line of habit as this are
common enough among all creatures
Instinct is not something as rigid as
cast iron: it does not act like ma
chine. always the same. The amman Is
something alive. and is subject to the
law of variations. Instinct may act
more strongly in one man than III an
other. or as one animal may nave
greater speed or courage than another
of the same species. 1t would De haru
to find two live creatures, very Tar up
in the scale, exactly ankle. A thrush
NAV use much mud in the construction
of its nest. or it may use little. or none
at all: the oriole may weave strings
into its nest, or it may use only dry
grasses and horse hair; such cases only
chow variations in the action OF IN

But if the oriole should build nest
like a robin or a robin build like a
cliff swallow. that would be a depart
ure from instinct to take note of. Or
if the whippoorwill and its allied spe-
cies in Europe should perch across the
limb instead of lengthwise of it, or
the wood duck nest in marshes and the
marsh hawk nest in trees, then, indeed,
would the dead level of instinct be VIC
lently wrenched. Organic life in all its
forms is flexible, the habits of all the
animals change more or less with
changed conditions, but the range OF
fluctuations in the lives of the wild
creatures is very limited and Is always
determined by awkward circumstances
and not by individual volition, as 1t sc
often is in the case of man.

Fish that Change Color.

Anglers have noticed that fish of the
same species caught in the same
stream often differ completely in color
and take protective hues that match
the prevailing local coloring of their
homes. Herr Otto Gotthilf found by
a course of experiments with turbots
that this faculty of changing color is
primarily due to the action OF light
upon the optic nerve. The light does
not act directly upon the eye, but is
reflected from such substances as are
around and affects the coloring cells
through the nerve centers of the fish.
Proof of this was obtained by sever
ing the optic nerve of the turbot, when
it was found that it no longer pos
sessed the power of changing color
