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. Hies and booties' wings and hoapa

The duel was over.
