THE OMAHA DAILY BEE , WJ&2NESDAY , NOVEMBER 5 , 1890. 5 TWO SPIDERS F1GBT A DUEL , It Was a Genuine Affair d'Eounettr , Seconds and All. ONE JUMPED THE OTHER'S CLAIM , Jt Vim a Struggle to the Itontli nnd the Mttlo Fellow Comiiiered The Graphic Story or mi Kyc-AVItncsses. A big window In the southeast corner fit the old warehouse at the head of lake Kctildi , in this place , is covered , us with & curtain , by spider webs , Tinpnnes of thlfAvlndow are the small squares of the old days. A big , oval- iKHlii'd , grayish-brown spider , had his web H proud over the entire , surface of ono pane of glass und over all hut ono email corner of another. In that corner / a plump black spider has his modest hut effective trap. The other day the big spider evidently concluded that ho needed more room , says the New York Sun. JIo ran out a cable that passed across ono edge of the black spider's web nnd fastened it to the cdgo of the sash be tween that pane and tlio next ono. Tills cable was quickly followed by another , nnd a third ono was strung before the little black spldor Boomed to wake up to what was going on. Then lie came out ol lilt corner and gave the big spider's auchii-iotw work a quick inspection. That having evidently satisfied him of the In- tonllon of the big trespasser , ho nipped the three cables apartonoafter another , and left them dangling uselessly In tlio nir. The llttlo spider , having destroyed the cables , re tired to the seclusion of his corner nnd resumed hla watch for files. Tlio big follow recovered from his surprise nnd Immediately throw another caolo across the llttlo one's wob. Out carao the little follow with a rush and snapped thut cable asunder. Four times after that the big spider strung a cable , and each time the little spider cut it down. The little black follow toro about In his corner as If in u towering rare , and while his fury Was at iln height another spider , with a long , ugly-looking hotul und a small body , t'liiuo down from u pane above the llttlu black one's corner. This spider t lined tlio raging black ono , and by nnd y the latter cooled down , The two spiders remained together in apparent ; , coiillilentinl intercourse for a few see ' ondc , and then the spider with the big head darted out upon the brown spider' web and followed It lo the big fellow's flon. Then ho lingered for a moment , evidently discussing the matter with the big In-own spider , and then ho darted off again in another direction und brought up ftt a web on the pane above the big Bpldur'H , whore unothor spider hung list lessly , wrapped up in Ills long , hairy legs. A short confab tookplace between the two , nnd then the -hairy spider dropped down quickly to the big brown Bplilor's don , and the spider with tlio big head returned hurriedly to the little black spider's corner. A few seconds after the big-headed spldor had returned to the black spider's corner the two glided out , reached the big brown spider's web , advanced almost to the center of it , and stopped. The brown spider and his hairy attendant ' Boon afterward emerged 'from the former's don nnd advanced toward the center of the web , stopping within an inch or so of the black spldor and his eccond. Other members of the spider colony must have had Intuitive kuowl- edge of what was going on , for spiders of all sizes and shapes cnmo speeding to > the scene to got a view of what was ovi- v dontly to bo a fierce encounter. When the two prinaipalspidors had taken their position * ) tholr respective attendants re tired isomo distance from thorn. Then the little bhtck syidor and his big brown fee rtibhod together. They struggled a moment , separated , rueheu together again , and tumbled and toshod ono another about until the web on which they fought swayed uii'd bent and broke hero and there into ragged holes. All the while tlio hairy spider and thu spider with the big head hov ered frantically ouch about his prlncl- , mU , as if coaching the fighters as to the bust advantage. "Whon the battle wss at its height ono round-bodied blaolc pidur imulo a rush into the field to take a hand in the fight. Before ho reached the contestants , however , ho was col lared by both the hairy spider and the big-headed Spider , and hustled buck into the ero'vd so quick that ho Boomed dazed nud remained parched on tlio edge of the fcnsh. "While this exciting side incident was ongnging tlio attention of the seconds ends the principals separated , each re treating a couple of Inches. The at tendant spiders rushed each to his prin cipal's side and for several seconds things remained quiet. Then the pug- paciiuiii little blnck spider moved slowly forward and the big follow advanced to i / incut him. When they were nearly to gether the little spldor shot forward ' like a Hash , pounced upon the big ono ml almost as quick darted back again. Thivt was a fatal blow to the big spider. In tltat sudden dash the little spldor had T - - , chopped off ono of of the blgono's long I forulegs close to his body as neatly as ho i bad cut the cables of his foo's intruding wob. wob.Then Then the black spider darted at his 1 big antagonist with the rapidity of lightning nnd it was not long till ho had severed the other foreleg of the big spldor us completely UB ho had the first 1 one. Tlio brown was now almost totally i helpless. By a quick flunk movement | the little black mounted the other's lixigo body nnd closed his jaws firmly in the back of his neck. The big spldor floundered nnd struggled , but all to no . Ills life blood Avns fast bolng Surposo. by his ngllo fee and in a minute after the black spider had got his clutch on the brown ono'a neck the big follow I bung shriveled and lifeless In the wreck 1 of the web ho had tried to enlarge at the T espouse of his bold and nervy llttlo neighbor. i Hut the llttlo blaclc snider was not 1 satisfied with the death of the encroach- I ing spider nnd tlio ruin of his wob. ; \Ylicu ho found his fee was dead ho inude n circuit of the outer edge of the web , cutting every stay cable and guy web from its. fastenings , until the limp body of its late occupant nnd the dis mantled web foil together on the window ledge , among a mass of dead and shriv eled.
