MADAGASCAR SPIUtRS
Their Wonderful Webs and an Experi
ment In Weaving
It Is Interesting to know the prac
tical uses to which the webs of a large
Madagascar spider might be applied to
replace silk for woven fabrics said
Fisher S Williams of London who Is
Interested In the manufacture of silk
I know from visits fo the interior
of Madagascar that the webs spun
many feet across the walks or shady
avenues of gardens are sufiiciuntly
strong to hang thereon a light bam
boo walkinir cane At the Paris ex
position of 1000 a whole piece of
rlc eighteen yards long and eighteen
Inches wide was exhibited which was
woven out of this web for which It
was necessary to provide 100000 yards
of spun thread of twenty four strands
For Its manufacture 25000 spiders
had to be brought Into requisition and
these were procured by offering the
natives so much a hundred but not
knowing or ignoring the purpose for
which the insects were required and
having a desire they
brought them In by basketfuls mostly
dead It was found necessary for the
winding off machines to go to the spi
ders Instead of calling In the spiders
to the filatories However the piece
of cloth was completed and was of a
shimmering golden yellow color
The idea of obtaining silk from the
spider Is an old one as distinguished
men in France discoursed on the sub
ject as long ago as 1710 but the first
study of this Madagascar spider came
up some ten years ago and the spin
ning of its web was then undertaken
It is only the female that spins The
first difficulty in obtaining the thread
direct from the insect consisted in con
triving how to secure the living spider
so as to wind it off by some mechan
ical process from the insect This was
originally performed by confining spi
ders in empty matchboxes with the
abdomen protruding The extraction
of the web does not apparently incon
venience the Insect although care lias
to be taken not to injure it Wash

Some College Spelling
No one can blame the colleges of this
country if they demand as one of the
requirements of admission the ability
on the part of the student correctly fo
spell words with which he would ex
press his thoughts Essays submitted
by 2o0 students contained an average
of five mistakes to each pupil Nearly
fifty men made the mistake of placing
an unnecessary e at the end of a
syllable as departement develope
ment A very common error was to
transpose the vowels ei and ie
Relieve and receive were the words
most sinned against Preceding and
succeeding offered difficulties to
many while offered and preferred
proved troublesome Why principal
and principle should so often be in
correctly used by college students is a
mystery There are a few simple rules
for spelling which should have pre
vented at least half of the mistakes
Before the age of fourteen these rules
should be part of the educational outfit
of the student in the grammar schools

A Crooked Parallel
It was decreed by the convention of
1818 and the treaty of Washington of
1840 that the boundary between the
United States and Canada from the
Lake of the Woods to the Pacific a
distance of 1270 miles should follow
the forty ninth parallel The survey
ors who have lately completed the lo
cation of the boundary have found
that the astronomical parallel varies
from a direct circle around the earth
and Professor Otto Klotz explains the
curious fact that the line instead of
being straight is at one point S00
feet south of the direct circle and at
another place GOO feet north It was
decided that the astronomical parallel
or line through places wher the pole
is 41 desrref from the zenith should
be the accepted boundary This deci
sion was followed but local attraction
in some pla es deflects the plumb line
and therefore the zenith and the as
tronomical forty ninth parallel proves
to be a quite irregular line Cleveland

The London Police
The London policeman aside from
the matter of pay has every advan
tage over his New York contemporary
He is looked up to with respect His
slightest command is obeyed In the
public streets He takes himself very
seriously and is grave and solemn un
der the weight of his responsibility
I never saw a London policeman laugh
or even smile except in one instance
and he was an Irishman and possibly
might be considered too human for his
office His relation to the people is
entirely different from that of the
New York poi lan The greatest
power over him is that of parliament
and all political parties are friendly to
him He is occasionally investigated
bj royal commissions which investi
gation is impartial and if anything
friendly to him It is their hope to
find everything as it should be Wil

Snails as Delicacies
One thing which the English visitor
to Paris detests according to a French
newspaper is the edible snail which
Is becoming a greater favorite among
the Paris gourmets Returns show
that in 1907 5G000O kilograms of snails
passed through the markets in the
French capital A similar quantity
was consumed last year and the re
turns up to the present indicate that
the quantity eaten will be still greater
There seem to be fashions In gastron
omy as well as in millinery so we
learn that the frog is becoming Ies3
popular in fact few are eaten today

In last weeks issue of Thk Tin
nuNK wo defined socialism as being in
its essence the embodiment of democracy
in its completed signification or rather
demouraey in its com pip test sense is
socialism in its fundamental aspect and
explained that socialism sought to
establish among men n system of govern
ment in which the voice of the people
that 19 a majority of all the people
should be the supreme ruling force in
every detail of that government with
direct power through their ballots to
propose such laws as they desired and
with the right to annul such laws as
they do not desire by the same method
of and with the power to make the tenure
office dependent on the will of the peo
pie That is to say that the primarj
features of the government sought to be
establibbed by the socialists is that n
an unrestricted right of franchise The
initiative and the referendum with the
imperative mandate These we stated
are the fundamental demands of social
ist For with tbee safpguards in thi
hands of the people we pointed out
that it would be impossible to force up
on the people any vicious or harmful
legislation and would place within the
hat ds of the people an effective meanf
for dealing with recreant or unfaithful
public officials
socialism rurtner demands as a sec
ondary proposition that as soon as the
people have acquired these fundament
al powers of democracy above referred to
that all the people by their majority
may devise means for bringing uodt r
this same democratic management such
public utilities as are necessary to the
life liberty and happiness of all or an
considerable part of all the people for
it is clear that if that proposition en
unciated by the declaration of
nee that men are endowed with ll
alienable right to life liberty and th
imnir of hHppineue ar d that to th
end governments are established among
men is a righteous proposition and if
the further proposition set forth by the
Fame document that governments de
rive their just powers from the consent
of the governed is a right concept of
what a righteous human government
si ould be it is also clear that the peo
ple party to any such government
should be esteemed to be eearly within
i itn oi njtir inhi rent rivals nil
mand to have a supreme voice in th
anagement of all these industrial ir
titutions which t fleet the conditions o
fe and happinese of all or any consider
ble part of all the people Thus th
iiilitte lnlifv nch indutrinl ins
as should become the subject of
ownership and government manage
ment would by their very nature be
come manifest For the test to be
oppliea in every instance would be
iietner the thing to be taken over b
he people and made a part of thei
-stem of government in its potentia
tture contributed to tbe means ot
fe or in any serious manner effecter
he liberties and happiness not of
ne individual or a family or som
1 II group of ir dividunls bn
rather of all or a considerable number of
u the people Thus under a socialist
orra of government we the people of
be United States of America very
nturally would at first take such insti
utions as our collocial corporations and
rusts whose operations effect the meth
ds by which vast multituds of our peo
fl mut live and since these multi
tudes must live by the operation of these
iiaiituuuns and tiuce the quality ot
lfe and its abundance are prime factor
f happiness in the human economy
uch cause would inevitably bring thesp
nstitutions within the range and scope
if those inalienable human righJs
vhich the declaration of American in-
lependence proclaims to be inherent
nnd just cause for the institutions of
overnments
How any man can who subscribs to
the righteousness of the propositions
quoted from the declaration of inde
pendence rest content until all these
vast resources with their means of pro
duction of essential necessities to human
ife aud happiness are brought within
he province of government ownership
s beyond our power to conceive
Monarchy differs from democracy
mly in that it claims as the inherent
rht for but a part of all the people
to dptrminp how all the people shall
live and the means and method by which
ach shall find his source of happiness
nd the extpnt of liberty vouchsafed
to each and it is by this system of
government that monarchy has always
bestowed much on the few and toil and
misery on the many and this it is that
democracy seeks to rectify by placing
within the power of all the people the
sore right to institute and maintain gov
ernments among men and to the con
summation of democracy in all the
earth is the socialist party pledged

Socialists declare their abiding faith
in the rectitude of tho proposition that
to the producers alone belong tho full
value of the thing produced and that
any government which does not guaran
teed all who labor the full measure of
the proceeds of their effort to the end
that all who give their energies to pro
ductive occupations may bo assured a
place of habitation food and raiment
the absolute prerequisite to life liberty
and happiness is deficient in the first
purposes for which organic forms of
governments should be had
Socialists believe that righteous just
tice demands that the able who will not
labor to produce shall not have the
