SOME INTERESTING FACTS
ABOUT CARPENTER ANTS

Il once carefully studied large col
ony OF carpenter ants that for several
years had lived and wrought within
the heavy copper beam OF a flour mill
at Bellwood, Penn. says Henry C.
McCook, In "Harper's Magazine"
"One by one the gang dropped the
pellets from crack I'm the twelve inch
beam which opened into the next
These fell upon cross beam eighteen
inches beneath. where another group OF
workers gathered them up and drop
ped them upon the stairway that led
from the lower story, the next being
situated above the second floor
THE miller. who had been about the
premises for several years. said that
when he first came the ants had a
third gang detailed upon the stairway.
several feet below. who cleared off the
dumpage and dropped IL TO the floor.
But as he swept the stairs daily. the
emmets discovered that their detail for
duty In that quarter was not needed
and withdrew st. Thereafter work
went on as | saw 1.-THE clippings cast
from the crossbeam 10 the stairs were
left TO the manipulations OF the miller's
broom.
Il have frequently found carpenter
ants lodged In the shade trees along
city streets and squares and there they
have the same habit OF secretlveness-
or is IL lennliness ?-practiced by their
country cogeners. Near my house
stood maple much the worse
for wear and tear. although not
old. On one side. a few inches from
the roots, was a small tubular opening
hidden behind a bulging scale OF bark.
Out OF this ants were dropping cuttings
which formed little heap upon the
ground. Workers wrought upon the
pile. carrying pellets piece by piece 20

into the gutter.

watch the little creatures I'm this act
Having reached the curbstone the wee

used for this being raised to the side

was hurled away. Then would follow
several similar movements. as though
to brush from mouth and mandibles
adhering particles OF dust.
"A gentle breeze blowing at the time
lifted up the elected cutting and car
ried II down the gutter, which for sew
eral feet was strewn with pellets. In
some way these emmet porters seemed
to have grasped the fact that the
breeze aided the disposal OF the chip
page. which therefore need cause no
further concern"

Protective Measures Center Upon a Few
 POints-Arrest Decline.


 Points-Arrest Decline.
 New York, Feb. 16.-Protective meas- ures for the stock market were center- ed upon a few points, and proved ef fective in arresting the decline, which gained some force during the first hour and which was actively renewed in the final dealings. With the falling ten- dency checked, there was sufficient de- mand from an uncovered short interest to effect gradual recovery. There was @ very notable shrinkage on this rally, more, probably, than half of the days total business being completed during the first hour. The demand was Ian guid, and dropped to nothing at the higher levels on the recovery. The market for call money was unexpected ly tranquil, and this had most to do with the improvement in sentiment which brought about the midday re- eovery in prices. Rates for call loans did not rise to yesterdays maximum and in the latter part of the day fell below 5 per cent. The outlook for an- other poor bank statement tomorrow was of less effect on the market than this practical showing of easier con ditions.
 The activity of the subscriptions for new bond issues during the week gives promise of further loan expansion by the banks. The preservation of the surplus at anything more than a nom-

inal figure for the days money market undoubtedly was by resort to foreign money markets. Rates for foreign eX- change fell quite violently under the of ferings of bankers bills, and the pro- ceeds were placed in local loans. The extent of the decline in foreign ex- change gave rise to discussion on the part of stock market operators of a possible import movement of gold. Bankers, however, gave no countenance to this supposition so far as the imme- diate outlook is concerned. As mat ter of fact, discounts in London and in Berlin quoter at an advance to-day. Time loans for all periods were put finally on a basis of 1-2 per cent. or higher, and the market for commercial paper also reflected the depletion of supplies in the money market. Of the sustaining forces in the market to-day the causes were repetition of those recently prevailing. The firmness in Reading reflected hopeful feeling over the prospect of settlement of the wage dispute with the coal miners, The Hill stocks went higher again on expectation of an early announcement of the melon cutting" Lead and Smelling responded to revived merger talk. Coming stock subscription priv ileges were hinted at to account for the rise in New York Central, but with out any official authority, The indlffer- ence of the demand for stocks on the rally awakened distrust and holdings were thrown over freely again at the last, causing a weak and unsettled closing.
