PRAISE FOR LITTLE SPIDER
interesting Story Contributed by
Writer, Greatly Struck by In
telIigence of Insect.

London.-An interesting article is
contributed to the Scotsman by a
writer who has been studying the life
and habits Of the spider and who has
been greatly struck by it's intelli.
yence.
"Of all the solitary insects l have
ever seen." he says, "the spider is the
most sagacious, and its actions, to one
who has attentively considered them,
seem almost to excel belief. The
spider is formed by nature for a state
Of war not only on other insects, but
on It's fellows. For this state ma.
ture seems perfectly well to have
formed it with singular perfection.
"Its head and breast are covered
with a strong natural coat of mail,
which is i~mpenetrable to the attempts
Of every other insect; and its lower
parts are enveloped in q soft, plant
skin which eludes the sting even Of a
wasp. Its legs are terminated by
strong claws, not unlike those Of a
lobster. and their vast length, like
spears, serves to keep every assailant
at a safe distance. Not worse fur.
nished for observation than for at,
tack and defense. 1t has several eyes,
large and transparent"

HOTEL ATTACKED BY BIRDS

siege Wlndows-ousted With
Difficulty.

Observation-Disclosures who were
tut Drawing the disagreeable weather.
md who happened to be in the vicin-
ty of the New willard hotel, vera
struck with wonder when they saw
The upper portion Of the hotel OBJ
Icured by a rapidly moving cloud.
And the moving mass which Gre
lied all this observation-disclosures
within as well as without the hotel
proved to be a flock Of swallows gone
lstray in their aerial flight. Within
The hotel no end Of trouble and incon-
Fenience were experienced, for many
Il the birds few in through the open
windows and were ousted with a great
leal Of difficulty.
The feathered cloud went astray,
probably through the miscalculation
II the leaders, and when a few Of
hem. flying too low, went in the d.
rection Of the hotel windows, the rest
followed, like a flock of misguided
Iheep. Pell-mell they struck against
The roof and upper windows, and,
where the windows were open, in they
lew and round and round the rooms.
But the aeroplane landing on the Will
ard Is not in commission yet and the
hotel management objected strenuous.
y to any attempt Of guests to enter
BY means Of the roof.
Accordingly, a corps Of hotel en-
p1oyes. including all the volunteers
who could be pressed into service,
made for the upper chambers of the
aostelry and swished and switched
The winged visitors out Of doors, some
lead and some alive. Some Of the
birds, in flying against the building
struck with such force as to be
stunned and killed in the fall to the
pavement. Many dead birds were
tound on the pavement.
