SPIDER INSTINCT.
Cutting a Web Thread to Escape From
an Intruder.

The instinct of the spider is always
an interesting subject for study. Re-
Gently naturalist placed small spi-
der in the center of large spiders
web some four feet above ground.
The large spider seon rushed from its
hiding place unGe, leaf TO attack the
intruder, which ran up one of the as
cending lines Ly which the web was
secured to the f.liage.
The big insect gained rapidly upon
the little one. but the fugitive was
equal to the emergency, for when
barely an inch ahead of the other it
cut with one of its rear legs the line
behind itself, thus securing its own es-
cape, the ferocious pursuer falling to
the ground.
The naturalist says: 1T is not the
habit of spiders to cut the slender
thread below them when they are as
cending to avoid some threatened dan
ger unless there Is a hole close at
hand-and a hole that is known to be
unoccupied." From this 1t would seem
that the little creatures action was the
result Of some sort Of reasoning In
stinct led 1t to run away, bat 1t must
have been something more than in
stinct that led it to sever the line and
so cut off the pursuit.
The same naturalist says that spi-
ders are cannibals and that they are
naturally pugnacious. But they do not
fight for the satisfaction of eating one
another. "When two spiders fight
there is generally a very good reason
for the attack and the vigorous de-
fense that folio; ).
sit is not gent ally known that after
certain time spiders become inca
pable Of spinning a web from lack
Of material The glutinous excretion
from which the slender threads are
spun is limited. therefore spiders can
not keep ON constructing new snares
when the old ones are destroyed. But
they can avail themselves of the web
producing powers of their younger
neighbors, and this they do without
scruple. AS soon as Il spiders web
constructing material has become ex-
hausted and it's last web destroyed II
sets out in search of another home
and unless it should chance to find one
that is tenantless a battle usually en-
sues, which ends only with the retreat
or death of the invader or defender."-

house of a distinguished member.

that his eye was upon me. My dis
tress may be imagined when l saw
him rise quite deliberately and make
his exit vory noiselessly into small
anteroom adjoining. The apartment
was dimly lighted, but he knew that
I knew he was there.
Then began series of pantomimic
feats impossible to describe. He threw
an ina ginary person-myself of course
upon the floor and proceeded to stab
him several times with a paper folder,
which he caught up for the purpose.
After disposing of his victim In this
way he was not satisfied, for the dull
lecture still went on in the other room,

LEGISLATORS ARE Re- :
ANXIOUS TO QUIT
indications Are That They Intend To
Settle Down to Work And Clear
The Calendars.


spectdl 10 Ihe NetcS.
Jackson, Miss, March 4.-That the
Legislature intends to settle down to
hard work and dispose of the bust
ness pending on the calendars as
quickly as possible was conclusively
shown by the character of yesterdays
proceedings.
There will be no more junketing
trips during the remainder of the ses-
sion. Wednesday morning, by a close
vote, the lower house adopted reso-
luton providing for inspection tour
of the state institutions at Meridian,
Starksville, Columbus and oxford. A
goodly number of legislators voted for
the resolution because of consistent
belief that they should visit the sew
eral institutions before attempting to
pass on pending appropriation bills.
Others saw in 1t an opportunity for
a holiday. But when the resolution
went over to the senate an hour later
it was rejected by the decisive vote
of "a to Is, and there will be no
junketing trips prior to adjournment.
Commencing next week it is ex-
pected that both bodies will hold two
| sessions daily and make diligent eff
forts to clear their calendars. The
| principal committees are well up with
their work. more reports having been
submitted from these bodies Wednes-
day than on any previous day during
| the session.
| There are enough bills on the calen-
dars for third reading and passage
to justify two sessions daily from
now until the day of adjournment,
and the adoption of this rule will
probably take place in both houses
Monday morning. During the re-
mainder of the present week the af.
ternoons will be devoted to commit
| tee sessions but after March 7th il
| is more than probable That the COM
mittees will be required to do their
work during the early forenoons OF
at night.
| The desire to finish the work and
go home is growing acute among the
solons, especially those whose busi
ness affairs have been neglected dur
ing the past seven weeks, and who
have personal interests that require
attention.
The feeling also prevails among the
rural members. The planting season
is at hand, the legislators who til
the soil realize that it is high time
to commence preparations for spring
planting.
Many of the important committees
were busy Wednesday afternoon ano
submitted lengthy reports at the ses
sions this morning.

DR.. JOHNSON.
He Never Said a Word About Taking q
Walk Down Fleet Street.


Walk Down Fleet Street.
The wit and wisdom of that great
man DR.. Johnson were Of the sledge-
hammer order and invariably preceded
by "sir," so that it is comparatively
easy for any one who has acquired the
trick to invent retort or remark in
the Johnsonian style. One of the most
effective of these pseudo sayings of
the doctor is, "And now, sir" said
DR.. johnson, 1--WE will take walk
down Fleet street." There can be but
little doubt that DR.. Johnson did make
this remark, for he was always walk
ing down Fleet street. but 1t is not
recorded that he did SO. The saying is
due to George Augustus Sala, who
when the magazine Temple Bar was
being started by Mr.. Maxwell imag-
ined a quotation from Boswell as a
motto for the venture. The thing was
intended as joke, but for long
while 1t was absolutely believed to be
a quotation from Boswell, and. per-
haps there are still some who would
say unhesitatingly that DR.. Johnson
did say the words, so seemingly au-
thentic are they. However. Sala him
self always acknowledged that he in
vented the phrase and added that to
the best of his knowledge and belief
DR.. johnson had never said word
about taking walk down Fleet
street. There are other legends about
johnson, however. which it is not so
easy to kill.-London Globe.

Negro Shoots Up Train.

New York, March. Harrison Hig-
bee and Leslie Lord, young men So
cially active in North New Jersey,
were shot and probably fatally wound
ed by an infuriated negro, in the
Shaking car of New Jersey Central
train, in which they were riding to
their homes in Newark.
Accompanying Higbee and Lord
were Gale Young, of New York, and
his cousin, Roger Young, of Newark.
Soon after the train left Jersey City
the negro, who was accompanied by
another man and a woman of his
race, accused the four young college
men of making remarks about the
woman, Lord was about to reply, but
Higbee told him to keep quiet.
Don't you tell me to keep quiet, )"
yelled the negro as he leaped to his
feet and drew a revolver, 'T'll quiet
you" and he opened fire.
The first bullet went through Lords
stomach. The second entered Hig-
bees chest and then Gale and Roger
Young leaped at the negro. But he
continued shooting, the shots causing
panic in the car, and passengers
stampeded for the doors or hid under
seats.
The negro leaped from the train
while it was making twenty miles an
hour and disappeared.
