Psychology Of Fiddler Grabs.

That fiddler crabs have minds may
astonish some people, but they are
only one of the multitudes of crea-
lures so endowed. And the minds of
mollusks, insects and starfish as well
as frogs and birds and mammals are
worth studying, for there is quite a
large amount of literature devoted to
the psychology of these despised low
or animals. In the Psychological Bull
letin John Shepard publishes a sum-
mary of the most recent of this.

18TH SESSION OF
MINING CONGRESS

The eighteenth annual session of the
American mining congress is called TO
meet at San Francisco in the Exposi-
tlon memorial auditorium September
20 21, %, 1915. President Carl Scholtz
states in the official cali sent out that
inasmuch as mining is essentially a ma
tional business, the convention will be
composed of active and associate mem
bers and duly accredited delegates.
He then requests the President of the
United States to appoint ten delegates !;
the chief executive of foreign nations,
ten delegates, governors of states and
territories, ten delegates; mayors of
towns and cities, two delegates and
one additional for each 100000 popula-
tion; boards of county supervisors.
boards of trade, chambers Of commerce.
mining bureaus and exchanges, mining
organizations, scientific societies, engi-
neers associations and state mining
schools two delegates each.
The active members of the congress
will meet to elect six directors on the
evening of September 2I. They will
also elect directors to succeed ID. W.
Brunton, G. II. Dern, F. Joslin and II .
l. Day, whose terms expire.
Among the matters that win come
before the convention are methods of
western mining, gold mining and its
connection with the money system of
the world, mining investments, mine
manufacturing, the prospector, the pro
moter and the engineer.
The public lands question will also
come up for consideration, the aues.
tion being whether the federal govern.
ment should lease, coal, oil and phos
phate lands and water powers. To illus
trate the argument; the coal reserves
Of Wyoming are estimated at 424.0s5.-
100000 tons; if 25 per cent of this IS
available for production, a royalty of

ment would amount to $4,000, ,000, 600: /:
