SCORPION FLY.

- NOW has no terrors for this fly.
She has been seen by Comstock in
New York on a cold Winters day
. on the snow. She did not seem
to be concerned about it, either.
The mothers have an egg-placer
nearly twice the length Of the body
and the fathers have a mark like the
sting of the scorpion fly. The head Is
rather long and ends with a broad
snout almost three times the width
across the eyes. At the ends of the
Snout are the chewing mouth-parts.
The wings are long and narrow, with
many cross veins and splashes of yell
low and brown on them. The parents
are three-fourths to one inch long.
Their legs are extremely slender, while
the body is stout.
The children are Matched from eggs
which the mother placed in crevice
in the ground They must search for
their food and they either burrow in
or wander about They seem to seek
dead animals or sick ones. The babies
are whitish, with a light brown head

Handwriting
What 1t May Reveal.
BY MILDRED MocKABEE.

TIME unique manner OF making the
"y" loop is an interesting fea-
ture of this handwriting. 1t is
i seldom that we find the return
stroke crossed in this way. We
might expect the writer to be of a very
positive nature. 1t would be difficult
to trick her either about people or cir
cumStances, For these reasons she
might find particular success in some
individual business venture. She seems
we'll able to protect her own interests
and develop good opportunities.
The slant of her writing indicates
friendliness, that should be of value in
business, also. This trait suggests that
some type of selling might appeal to
her.
She makes three types of ats" sug-
costing variety of thought and action.
She probably finds no d1tf1culty IN
adapting herself to new and strange
situations
In social contacts she should guard
against expressing herself too freely.
Her determination, which seems an
asset in business, might detract from
her charm to her acquaintance. Peo-
pie would be wise to follow her lead,
however, as her clear-seeing brain will
look ahead and plan carefully.
For relaxation she probably enjoys
plays or pictures in which there is a
strong dramatic interest. The bizarre
and unusual would possibly please her
more than the conventional. Modern
istic ideas of decoration might stimulate
her and help her express her per-
Sonal4ty.

Mir and Mrs Peter Jones Are Held for the Offense But Joseph Subach Wants to Know Where He Gets Off

The name of Jones may be a fa- miliar one, and commonly used as an alias. but in this particular case all the elements of police intrigue enter in the arrest of Mir and Mrs Peter Jones on the charge of high way robbery. Both were arraigned in police court this morning and orr dered held under bonds of $5.00O each pending hearing next Thurs day morning.
 Some of the features of the case are robbery with dangerous weapon, a chase in which the victim fired a shotgun after them, resulting in his arrest, mistaken identity and the likely vindication of youth, Jo- seph Suback, 2S. of A Congress day and is being held under bonds of 5000 as the alleged stick-up man who visited Jannettys store, 115 South Leonard street week ago and compelled the proprietor to part with $10 in change from cash reg ister.
 Jannetty positively identified Su- back as the youth who held him up. To-day Jones admits that he was the one. who made the robbery. There Is 8 remarkable resemblance between the two men, but the fact that Suback was falsely arrested. imprisoned and subjected to the or- deal of appearing in court and being placed under bond may result in suits of false arrest against Jannetty and the two police officers involved.
 As Jones has confessed 10 the crime checked against Suback it is
