mWfiBIiilillilil1i txKyUiiMZ1SCWr An Acrolmtic Spider A curious Instance of the ability of an insect to successfully measure dis tance was evidenced once while I was traveling through northern Argentina I first made the acquaintance of niyd friend on the back veranda of a little village tavern I was lying In a hatn uiok About two feet from me was a 3 by Inch hand rail of wood support ed by wooden balusters As I lay there I noticed a ily alight on the top of the wood While I watched him the fly apparently turned into a spider I could not believe my eyes but on elorer Inspection I saw that a spider Jumped from somewhere and alighted on top of my fly 1 thought this -worth watching and found that this was his method of procedure A fly would alight on top of the railing the spider would take In the distance a a glance and would dis appear down tLe side of the rail walk along toward the lly but out of sight until he reached the place on the side of the rail at right angles to the posi tion occupied by the fly when he last saw It Then he would walk nearly to the top of the rail and fasten his web then walk down paying out sals web as he went till ho was as far from the place where he had fastened his web as was the fly then one vig orous leap the web swinging him round In the arc of a circle and he would alight on top of the fly I have never seen one miss this seemingly difficult leap except when the fly left his position before the spider had finished his preliminaries E A Suverkrop in Scientific Ameri can ItlncU Sea Pecnllnrltien The Black sea has peculiarities which distinguish it from the Mediter ranean Atlantic or Pacific The great est ascertained depth is 1200 fathoms A Surface current flows continually from the Black sea into the Mediter ranean through the Bosporus and Dardanelles and an undercurrent of salt water from the Mediterranean into the Black sea This undercurrent of water Is warm and sinks to the bottom and in consequence of its great density prevents vertical circulation The result is that these deeper waters are rendered stagnant They are satu rated with sulphureted hydrogen and consequently life is impossible In an expedition in which Sir John Murray took part the water brought up by means of a water bottle from a depth of 300 fathoms smelled exactly like rot ten eggs No life therefore is possible In the Black sea beyond a depth of 100 fathoms which is a striking con trast to what happens in the open ocean where there is an abundance of animal life at that depth This brings about another extraordinary condition with reference to the deposits that in all the deeper deposits there is an abundant chemical precipitate of car bonate of lime a condition not obtain ing as far as is known in any other ocean Rotten Fish ns Pood One of the national delicacies of northern Russia is tresca an ap palling dish consisting of codfisi caught the previous summer and eaten in an advanced stage of decomposi tion Its odor alone is beyond words its taste tl Avriter fortunately does not know It is difficult to stay long in the room with it and yet it is pre ferred to fresh meat or fish both of which are cheap and easily obtaina ble in most villages and obviate the trouble of drying and rotting which dried tresca implies The poor says Chancelour are very innumerable and live most miser ably for I have seen them eat the pickle of hearing and other very stink ing fish Nor the fish cannot be so rotten but they will eat it and extoll it to be more wholesome than other fish or fresh meates In mine opinion there is no such people under the sunne for their hardness of liveing Gentle mans Magazine The Mystery of Itadinm The substance called radium emits radiations resembling the X rays with out the application of work or energy from external sources and without ap preciable loss of weight This seems to be inconsistent with the law of the conservation of energy but the mys tery is explained by the calculations of M Becquerel which show that a loss of weight so infinitesimal that in a thousand million years it would amount to no more than a milligram would suffice to account for the ob served effects According to this ex planation the emanations from radium consist of material particles But how infinitely minute must those particles be Experience Versas Theory Marcus Aurelius says

dry interests his friends occasionally with reminiscences of his career on the force One of his stories Is that of a man who was hauged twice The okl man had heebmo weary of life and de termined to end Ills earthly existence by hanging himself lie arose one night after the other members of the family had retired Procuring a rope he fastened one end carefully around his neck and the other to the stair rail and then threw himself over the balus trade His sons awakened at the usual hour In the morning but upon starting down stairs were horrified to see their old father hanging at the end of a rope They cut down the hotly and then has tened to apprise the neighbors of the tragedy Some of the neighbors being great respecters of the law advised the sons that in cutting down the body before obtaining permission from the police or coroner made them liable to imprisonment in the penitentiary Frightened by this information the sous hurriedly returned home and ob taining another rope fastened It about the neck of their father and let the body down in the position in which they had found it They then hunted up the police ser geant and told him of the suicide of their father When the police sergeant reached the house he cut down the body but was quite surprised to find that there were two ridges around the throat We asked for an explanation The sons hesitated for a time but finally confessed to the whole affair Baltimore Sun Freed by Witty ttetort Few if any judges can be severe with a prisoner who has made them laugh Just why this should be so is a problem for the psychologists but that such is the case can be testified to by any oue who has much to do with the courts A case in point occurred not long ago in Center street police court An old darky had been arraigned on a charge of shooting craps Deed jedge I didnt shoot no craps protested the prisoner How about it officer asked the court I saw him with my own eyes said the policeman No no jedge still protested the darky he didnt see me shootin no craps I wasnt playin deed I wasnt Now look here said the magis trate which am I to believe The officer swears positively he saw you plaj ing and you swear equally as positively that you were not What am I to do The prisoner evidently appreciated the unfortunate position of the court He scratched his head in perplexity heaved a long sigh and said Waal I dunno jedge we all has our troubles He was discharged New York Mail and Express When Cats Were Worshiped A mummy cat is a very curious thing Tons of these embalmed crea tures were brought to England a few years ago to be ground into bone ma nure What an unromantic ending after 4000 years mummification Some of the cats were bound with the ears standing erect others laid fiat The cloths were still adhering to the mummies though in one ship load supposed to contain 1SO000 cats very few really complete specimens could he found It is supposed that the cats were of the species known as Felis maniculata a kind formerly found in north Africa aud probably tamed by the ancient Egyptians from which we get our do mesticated pussy As early as 1G00 B C tablets record ed that cats Avere kept in the Egyptian temples as an object of worship Fnst BoTvlInsr Below is a story found in a recent book Talks With the Old English Cricketers which prompts the reflec tion that there were giants in those days of the old cricketers A man who did a private business in athletic requisites at his home in Blackpool was one day approached by a man who asked him if he kept a full supply of cricket requisites Certainly was the response Then said the man gravely wrap me up a bottle of arnica a paper of court plaster and an arm sling I am going to play in a cricket match this afternoon against
