Probably you have heard of the
tomologist, anu Prof. Pawkins.
/ II began years and years ago, with a
revision of the microlepidoptera
twhstever these may bel by Pawkins.
in which he extinguished new spe.
cies created by Hapley. Hapley, who
was always quarrelsome. replied by a
singing impeachment of the entire
classification of Pawkins..
1t was a long struggle, vicious from
the beginning, and growing at last to
pitiless antagonism.
In 1891 Pawbins, whose health had
been bad for some time, published
some work upon the "mesoblast' of
the Deaths Head Moth. But the work
was far below his usual standard and
gave Hapley an opening he had COW
eted for years.
In an elaborate critique he rent
Pawlins TO tatters. and Pawkins made
reply, halting, Intellectual, with pain
full gaps of silence. and yet malignant.
There was no mistaking his will to
wound Hapley, nor his incapacity to
do It, But few of those who heard
him realized how i'll the man was.
Hapley had got his opponent down,
and meant to finish him. He followed
with a simply brutal attack upon
Pawkins, in the form of paper upon
the development of moths in general.
The rejoinder of Pawkins was to catch
the influenza, to proceed to pneumo-
mia, and to die.
In his private thoughts Hapley
could not forgive Pawkins for dying.
1t left Hapley's mind with a queer
gap in it. For 20 years he had worked
hard, sometimes far into the night,
and seven days week, with micro.
scope, scalpel. collecting-net and pen,
and almost entirely with reference to
Pawhns. 1t had killed Pawkins; but
it had also thrown Hapley out of gear,
so to speak, and his doctor advised
him to give up work for a time and
rest. So Hapley went down into a
quiet village in Kent. and thought
day and night of Pawkins, and of
good things it was now impossible to
say about him.
At last Hapley began to realize in
what direction the preoccupation
| tended. He determined to make a
fight for it, and started by trying to
read novels. But he could not get
| his mind off Pawkins, white in the
face. and making his last speech.
1t was on the third day afterwards
that Hapley became aware of novel
| addition to the local fauna. He was
working late at the microscope, and
the only light in the room was the
brilliant little lamp with the special
| form of green shade.
One eye was over the instrument
With the other eye Hapley saw, as il
were. without seeing.

THE COMPANY SCATTERED.
Ingenious Ruse of Western Despera-
does in Job Put Up on
Gamblers.

A prominent attorney Of Baltimore
told the following story to one of his
colleagues recently, says the sun, OF
the time when he was in the west.
when the gold fever was at its height:
"One of the largest gambling houses
in San Francisco was in full swing,
when in walked Two men, one of whom
carried a large powder horn. They
ambled up to the bar, and the man
with the powder horn threw 1t on the
counter and said in loud voice: 1
am tired of 1t all, and shall end it here,
but | may as well take my friends
along with me- He then dumped out
on the counter quantity OF what
looked TO be powder. His companion
took from his pocket some of the same
stuff and threw It into the fire, where
upon black smoke puffed out from tle
stove. BY that time the gamblers
looked around and were Mortified to
see the other one seize the horn and
throw the contents into the stove.
The whole company, thinking there
would be a horrible explosion, jumped
to their feet and scattered. With a
joyous laugh the TWO mel ran over to
the tables and scooped in ell the money
in sight---a goodly pile-jumped on
their horses and gallored away.
ITO say that the players were In
censed when they returned would be
putting 1t mildly. 1t turned out upon
investigation that 1t was only black
sand that the two desperate men
threw on the counter"
The lawyer asked why, when one o.
these men threw some OF the stuff in
the stove, it created a volume Of
smoke. The other thought ae must
have had some real powder in his
pocket.
Now the second attorney is wonder
ing II the friend who told the story
was one OF those who ran out of the
place. OF course. he could not have
been one CT the desperadoes. SO how
did he know?

ONE UNWoLATEp RULE.
Club Servitor Had Seen Them All
Broken Into Bits, Save
That One.

A certain club, the name OF which
need not be mentioned, has strict reg
ulations against gambling, relates the
American Spectator.
A quartette OF club members decid.
ed to break the rule by a game of
poker for small stakes, so they ad.
journed to one of the small rooms and
told an old servant to bring a pack of
cards.
When he brought them one Of the
members asked: John, I suppose II
would be something utterly new in
this club IL we were to do such a thing
as play for money with these cards?'
The negro scratched his head and
dellberated. finally answering: Boss.
Use been wiv dis club a long time,
and Use seen many things"
yes, but what have you seen7"
"I've seen ebry rule OF dis club
vilated 'ceptin' one"
what is that one?"

one eye to the other. The table-cloth
was of the material called tapestry
by shopmen and rather brightly col
ored. The pattern was in gold, with
a small amount of crimson and pale
blue upon grayish ground. At one
point the pattern seemed displaced,
and there was a vibrating movement
of the colors at this point.
IIapley suddenly moved his head
back and looked with both eyes. His
mouth fell open with astonishment
1t was a large moth, or butterfly,
its wings spread in butterfly fashion,
II was strange 1t should be in the
room at all, for the windows were
closed. Strange that it should not
have attracted his attention when
fiuttering to its present position.
Strange that it should match the table
cloth. Stranger far that to MIN, Hap
ley, the great entomologist, 1t was al.
together unknown. There was no de.
llsipn. 1t was crawling slowly toward
the foot of the lamp.
Looking around him for some
means of capturing the moth. he rose
slowly out of his chair. Suddenly the
insect rose, struck the edge of the
smpshade-Hapley heard the ping
and vanished into the shadow.
In a moment Hapley had whipped
off the shade, so that the whole room
was illuminated The thing had dis
appeared, but soon his practiced eye
detected it upon the wallpaper near
the door. He went toward 1t, posing
the lampshade for capture. Before he
was within striking distance, however,
1t had risen and was fiuttering round
the room.
The third time he overturned the
lamp. which very lnckily, went out.
Hapley was left in the dark. With
start he felt the strange moth blum
der into his face.
II was maddening. He had no
lights. If he opened the door of the
room the thing would get away. liz
the darkness he saw Pawkins quite
distinctly. laughing al him. Pawkins
had eye- an oily laugh. He swore
,furiously and stamped his foot on the
floor.
Hapley very suddenly decided to
give up the moth and go to bed. But
he was excited.
! Then he found the moth crawling
over his Counterpart. He sat on
the edge OF the bed in his shirt
