SEARCHLIGHTS.
A Special Pattern Must Be Used on
 the Suez Canal.

A Special Pattern Must Be Used on
 the Suez Canal.
 Every war vessel carries from one to twenty searchlights. and every vessel of any description whatever passing through the Suez canal has to carry one of special pattern.
 A searchlight consists essentially of an carc lamp of special form, a para bolic mirror and case to hold the lot, the case being mounted so as to be capable of movement in two direc- tions-viz, vertically and horizontal ly. The hood. as this case is called, is made of sheet steel about 3.32 inch thick. The turnable, trunnions, etc.. are cast in gun metal The. arms which support the hood are of cast steel. The lamp box is form ed as part of the hood. The mir TOT is carried on springs in the back cover. and at the front of the hood is front glass; mounted in a gun metal ring. and the dispersion lens when carried is hinged on in front of this. Training is carried out by means of worm and worm wheel or by rack and pinion. Slowing is effected by means of a pinion which gears into a crown wheel on the un- derside of the turntable. or else it is done directly by hand.
 The SueZ canal regulations require that the projector shall be capable of giving The fight required under two different conditionS-in the first case broad. fiat beam of light Illuminating both banks and the canal uninterrupt- edly. this. being. used when no other ship is approaching; in the other case they require q beam having the same angle of divergence and consequently the same width as the first, but divid- ed into two portions. with dark in terval between, thus giving light at both sides. but not directly in front, and so not interfering with the navi- gation of the approac hing vesseL-J.

Count Nesselrode, the Russian states man of the last century. was a famous collector of snuffboxes. He collected them as a diplomatist. receiving one or two for each treaty he signed, and when he had got $1OO,OOO worth of them turned them into cash and be- came capitalist. His capital he in- vested so judiciously that his descend ants are multimillionaires. The nor al of Count Nesselrodes experience Is that a snuffbox is not to be sneezed 0%s>i @zsfss 4.- b..

Mexican Use of Spiders Nests.

from the Westminster Gazette.
The utility of the spider, the fact that
it has part to play in the economy OF
nature, is very slowly being recognized
In this country, but there are regions OF
the world where sentiment has given
place to the conviction that certain
classes at any rate of the insect play a.
role that is both useful and beneficial to
man.
NJ. L. Diguet, who has been on a mis-
sion in a district of Mexico, which he
calls Micoacan, has brought back tidings
or SPIDERS nest which is used by the
natives for self-protection during rainy
seasons and which forms a notable addi-
ton to the adornment of the rooms in
which they live. In the Bulletin de Ia
Societe Rationale d'Acclimation he de-
scribes the mosquero, as il is called,
which has been used a remedy for the
NY plague from time immemorial. At the
beginning of the rainy season the exodus
from the villages begins. The Inhabitants
stream up the wooded hillsides and the
picture he draws of the long procession
of branches. each of which contains one
or more coveted mosquero, reminds one
Of the wood of Dunsinane.
The nests are large enough to cover a
space OF couple of square yards and
are like hugh sponge. This is strung
to the branches by thick threads which
act as cables. Then come the thinner and
sticky ropes which are TO act as catchers
OF the harmful, unnecessary flies.
The inside of the nest is simply a mesh
of interviewer lines pierced with passages
and galleries--all kept in a state OF per-
feet sweetness by a tiny parasite. one OF
the coleoptera, swarms of which live and
move, have their being and find their
nurture within its recesses. The season
goes on, the nest increases concentricaly
in size. As each capture is made il is
secured by freshly made webs and the
remains, after host and parasite have
satisfied their appetites become an IN
tegral part of the surface of the nest.

THE RAZORBACK HOG.
Menace to Hunters-Destroys Eggs
and Young of Game Birds.

T rom Forest and Stream.
A North Carolina correspondent saws
that through the enforcing of the stock
laws in the mountains of that state the
ravages, of the razorback hog are being
curtailed
In number of the southern and mid
die western states hogs are permitted 10
roam at will through the woods and river
bottoms of sparsely settled regions An
attempt is made to mark them by means
of notching, Sitting or clipping the ears.
an unsatisfactory methed at best, and one
which has caused many a neighborhood
feud and the spilling OF some human
blood.
There is always a certain percentage OF
these hogs that cannot be claimed or
taken up by any person because proof OF
ownership is lacking, and as the practice
has been in vogue for a great many wears
there are plenty OF genuine wild hogs
Whether or not the progenitors of the
razoroack hog were fat, slow going
beasts, such as prosperous farmers own
we do not know. The fact is that the
present woods rangers are long OF leg
swift of foot and so lean that the term
razorback is fairly appropriate Ac-
customed to encounters with other woods
providers in defense OF their young. they
nave developed courage of a sort, and
While they will not attack men they often
set upon hunting dogs. invade camps and
despoil everything within their reach.
In the regions infested by these scaven-
gers the loss in eggs and the young of
game birds is very large. Where there
are no fences the razorbacks scour the
woods SO carefully that nothing they will
eat escapes. They travel fast and far
and rake the country as with a fine tooth
comb; their sense of smell is highly de-
veloped. and the eggs and young of
ground nesting birds are never safe when
they are abroad.
