The Sleep of Butterflies.

Washington.-The scientists in the

ing queer experiments tending more
or less to the extension of scientific
knowledge. The oldest. perhaps, of
experiments of late years has been
those conducted by an official of the
botanic gardens. who has been watch
ing the sleep of butterflies. The Off.
cial contends that butterflies are rem
dered secure from their enemies at
night by reason of their peculiar colors
and markings. Thus, large red and
brown butterflies, with silvery spots
on the under side Of their wings,
which are conspicuous by day can
hardly be distinguished at night when
sleeping on golden rods and other
flowers that form their favorite roosts.
At such times their bright wing col.
ors blend with the hues of theaaowers.
while the silvery spots glisten like the
dewdrops around them.

RED TIE sPoILs ELoPEMENT.
Mans Return to Get lurid Piece Of
Neckwear Diseloses Plans.

Waterbury, Conn. - When Miss
Julia Tonpense crocheted the most
lurid red necktie that ever graced the
neck of a Waterbury Adonis and
worked in a number of pretty senti-
mental inscriptions upon it's fiery
floss she little thought that the same
necktie would shatter her hopes of an
elopement.
Albert Vernice, the young woman's
fiancee, has neither red tie nor a
wife to-day and is awaiting some one
to appear in the courthouse to go on
his bond for $500. He Is charged with
abduction.
Miss Tonpenses father. fearing an
elopement when she wanted to go to
New York, insisted on accompanying
her to the station. The young couple
had everything arranged, so when
Vernice saw the father with the girl
he hid in a freight car until the New
York train was just starting. Then
he made a running jump and landed
on the rear platform.
When the young couple arrived in
New York, the bride-to-be discovered
that Vernice had forgotten his red
necktie. He was sent back post haste
to get it, as Miss Tonpense refused to
be married with him wearing any
other neckwear. When Vernice got
back 10 Waterbury Mr., Tonpense was
at the station and had him arrested.
