INSECTS IN DEATH DUEL.
Calcutta Roach and Tarsntuia Fight
Until Both Are Killed.

Until Both Are Killed.
Il have seen many strange sights

Hotel. the other day. but never have

most OF his life at sea until he settled
down a year or two ago TO the ex-
citemens OF life ia busy New YORK

This was combat between two
siant insects, one Tarantula, the
other a Calcutta roach. Ever see
Calcutta roach? Well he looks just
like cockroach. only he is as big
as mouse. This particular one was

a Malay for a pound OF butter, anu
for an insect he was remarkable
creature. The roach would come to
me to be fed, and ne would crawl
about on my hand with the utmost
|tearIessness. His fayorite place OF
rufuge was inside the bottom OF my
coat sleeve.
"A fayorite way of catching ordi-
nary cockroaches in the Far East is
to sprinkle -four in a bowl. covering
the bottom and the inner side, and
leaving a depression in the middle

and in the morning would find the
bowl filed with insects. who had been
caught in the -four as securely as in
a fine-wire cage

become an arena. Below the rim was

the bottom OF the bowl. stood
wathching that contest for almost two
hours. The tactics they displayed
seemed human. Each appeared to
know the weak points of the other
The spider stood much higher than
the roach. and the latter seemed TO
act mainly on the defensive. His
shelf was a real amor, and as he
crouched low. he seen ed to be pro-
tecting himself with a shield. His
vulnerable spot was in the middle o.
the back and he labored to keep this
covered. The spider made his at

CHATHAM ARTILLERY PUNCH


All the news dispatches have fall
cd 10 state whether or not President
Taft fell In with the famous Chatham
Artillery punch drFing his stay IN
Savannah, Ga. As the punch has not
been mentioned. however. II Is 10 be
taken for granted that the President
wlthstood the temptation or that this
marvellous punch was not offered
him. for II there Is anything In Sa-
'vannah traditions we would have
heard something about II IL he had
sampled IL.
The Jacksonville. Fla, Times
Union. tells a story 30 the effect that
a former President Of the United
states. after becoming acquainted
with the Chatham beverage. had 10
return TO his waiting warshlp IN
wheelharrow, and upon reaching the
dock was hoised aboard ship in
fling"
Now il Mr.. Taft had tackled this
potent brew and had been affected
like his predecessor. there would
have been real trouble. Where couia
you get wheelbarrow that would
accommodate such cargo. and who
would undertake to do the loading?
After reading about that mint
julep. with barnacles OF frost ON the
glass, we can easily believe that the
President would BIZ proof against the
temptation of even Chatham Artillery
punch.
