About Jumping Spiders. THE AQUATIC SPIDER AND ITS DIVING-BELL. From Popular Science. These spiders, jumpers, belong to the group which naturalists call the saltatory spiders. | Some of them are disguised, as if for protec- tive resemblance, with the costume of a hy- | menopterous insect, or under an aspect resem- | bling that of ants. Producing only a small | quantity of silk, they hide themselves in cracks in the walls or in fissures of bark in | the shadow of the foliage, and make them- selves a lodge out of a smooth or flossy tissue. At the laying of its eggs, the jumper shuts | itself up in its shell. “One species deposits eggs without any coverin; @ more for- tunate species incloses them in @ sack with thin and almost diaphanous walls. Not | having the faculty of spinning webs, the salta- tory spiders are hunters, and love to fast if the weather is bad. On pleasant days they are to be found all around, and, having eyes all over the cephalic region, some of them quite and others of enormous size, they can look ac- curately through all the surroun: space, which they explore slowly and with care. Ifa! fly is in sight the spider lances itself upon it with dizzy rapidity. It measures its distance | so well that it rarely misses; but if this should | happen, no harm comes to it, for it has fixed a | thread to ite starting point, a unrolling | simi as it leaps, prevents it si eaaking upon the ground, and affords an easy r back to its position. While their nearly constant abode is the water, they are, like most other spiders, air —— consequently they need some pecial provision for providing themselves ‘ith air while living under the water, and for | this purpose they possess the art of construct- | ing a sort of diving-bell. It is an ey Os | sight to witness one of them making hi cell. Clinging to the lower side of afew Teares and securing them in position by spinnin, few threads, the spider rises to the level of t! . water, with his belly uppermost, and doubling up its hind legs, retains a stratum of air among the hairs with which its body is covered. Then it plunges into the water. and appears as in the first stage of the making of its silvery robe. Going immediately to the spot it bad chosen it brushes its body with its paws, when the air de- taches itself and forms a bubble under the leaf. ‘The spider surrounds this bubble with the im- permeable silky matter furnished by its spin- neret. Returning to the surface, it takes in | another layer of air, which it carries down and | adds to the first one, also extending the envel- | ope over it. The process is kept up till the “diving-bell” has reached the proper size and is finished. The ideal form of the construc- | tion is that of a thimble, but it often assumes an irregular shape, like an inverted sack. When the spider has taken asion of its redoubt it remains quiet in it, head down, watching for the appearance of an insect. Perceiving one, it seizes it and returns to its lodge. which it has secured against intruders by spinning threads across it, to devour its prey at leisure. ane ies The Surgeon and the Sentry. From the Army aud Navy Review. An Army surgeon was one night annoyed by the coughing of the sentry outside his tent, Unable to sleep, he decided that something must be done for the man, and so compounded him a strong and very disagreeable dose of medicine. Then, going out, he ordered the man to take it. The sentry refused at first litely, and afterward angrily and ‘omphaticahy. But the surgeon ste raly insisted upon his rights, and the man was finally induced to swallow the compound. The result was evidently satisfac- tory. The sound of coughing ceased in the camp. and the surgeon went to sleep with the the consciousness of having done a next morning he was summone: = ofticer | numbers of Washington music-lovers than that in command, who said to bim: “. ‘How is this, sir? I hear serious complaints about you Ane lation to the sentries. One of them has: ed that in the middle of the night you came out of your tent and abused him in the most dread- He said you made him swallow a drink which must have been poison.” The guard had been relieved while the surgeon was compounding his mixture, and he had cured the wrong man.

Physicians Exercised Over Certificates to Clerks, A little over a year ago, it will be remem- bered, quite a sharp controversy took place be- tween the Commissioner of Pensions anda committee from the medical association of this city. It grew out of a rule made by Gen. Black requiring that certificates presented by em- ployes of the bureau for leave of absence on account of sickness should state the cause of sickness. The doctors protested against this ruling, and the late Dr. Garnett, who wasa member of the committee to which the matter was referred by the association, wrote some vigorous letters to the Commissioner, in which he maintained, among other reasons, that com- pliance with such a rule on the part of a physi- cian would be a violation of professional eth- ics, as the relations between a physician and his patients wero confidential. Gen. Black, however, held his ition, and the contro- tony wis kamidicrod erie intocter ment, and Secretary Lamar wrote a couple of letters sustaining Gen. Black. The correspond- ence throughout was conducted with consider- able vigor, and the discussion created some feel- ing. It resulted in neither party withdrawing from the position, and the contest was declared a draw. The Medical Association by retaliating di- rected that members should not state in their cer- tificates given to Government employes the cause of sickness, and the nt refused to accept as grounds for granting sick leaves physicians’ certificates which did not give the nature of the sickness preventing the ore — fea at their desks. The matter has ition ever since, the rigor vot ther =r pins ed by the tae oo peered somewhat abated by admitting oral previo from the employes ANOTHER PHASE. Some of the members of the medical associa- tion have complained that they have suffered loss in their practice in consequence of this Department ruling: and they have charged that some members of th rofession, in violation of the resolution edopted by that body, are in the habit of granting tes in accordanc with the requirements of the Department. The result is that such members are taking away from the others who adhere strictly to the rules of the Nemgerre considerable of their practice. This matter'was brought up at a re- cent meeting of the association, and after de- — @ resolution was offered to obtain of the ent the names of physicians a certificates and Lesh the list printed. | This resolution was op; a some of the members who had not Nitlated e rule of the association, on the ground that the rule itself | was unwise. A counter resolution was offered to rescind the rule, and in the course of the discussion it was argued that it was unneces- sary to have such a@ regulation. It was main- tained tast it was NOT THE PROVINCE OF THE PHYSICIANS to regulate this matter, and if the order of the Department worked an injury to the employes the physicians could not be held responsible. It has been urged that statements made by | physicians relative to the cases of their pa- | tients became sccessible in the Department to | a number of the employes, and in this way pri- | } — matters would become subject of more or ip among the associates in the office. in i iene case of ladies this, it was thought, would prove to be unpleasant, and many of the doctors based their opposition to the Depart- ment exclusively upon this ground. Before a decision was reached by the asso- ciation an adjournment was taken and the en- tire matter waa postponed until the next meet- when it is expected that there will be a | fall attendance of the members, ——_—— IN VIRGINIA. Gossip About the Political Situation Across the River. Information from the political canvass in Vir- ginia, gathered by a Stax reporter from differ- | ent sources, indicates that the contest is very close and doubtful, with the chances apparently | slightly favoring the democrats. Gen. Mahone | is conducting a still hunt, a species of political warfare, in which he is said to be peculiarly | skillful. He has no speakers in the field, is mak- | ing no fuss, but urges his lieutenants to get out | every repubtican voter and see that his vote is cast. Now and then Gen Mahone effects a com- | promise, by which some one of the rival faction Ceases opposition and joins with him. The dem- | ocratic leaders are fearful that they cannot get | their vote out. They say that is the only dan- ger; that the democrats are in the majorigy in the state, but — is some eee growing ‘out of ppointments in regard to office. It is said that the soreheads are ugly and will not be placated. There is, according to democratic workers, a lack of enthusiasm within the party. All the efforts of the mana- ers will be directed toward getting voters to fhe polls, Meantime, it is said that Gen. Ma- pods is pretty well supplied with money for campaign purposes, and in the last several days | he has expressed the belief that the state would go republican. Charged With Passing a Worthless Check. The detectives have in their possession a warrant for the arrest of Charles A. Walter, jr., son of Justice Walter, charging him with false pretenses, The warrant was sworn out by Mr. | Frank K. Ward, who alleges that Walter passed on him a bogus check for $10 by representing that he had money deposited to. his credit in the Central National Bank of this city. After- ward Mr. Ward learned that Walter did not } have any money in the bank. Other complaints similar to the one made by Mr. Ward have been | Mr. made against Walter, but only the one warrant has thus far been issued.

The New York Herald thinks the dismissal of Lord Sackville should have been made quietly | Vardgraduste. and without bluster; that the President should have quietly asked the British government to send him another minister in place of Lord Sackville, but that “under Mr, Bayard’s advice, Mr. Bayard’s mismanagement, and Mr. Bayard’s scolding the British minister to the reporters, the President has been made ridicu- lous, and Lord Salisbury has, by mere silence, gained the advantage for his government.” It urges the President to get a new Secretary of State without delay.

A display of temper because the hypocrisy is found out is | at once futile and puerile.” THE NEWS IN ENGLAND. The President’s Action Called “‘Delib- erately Offensive.” Cable Dispatch to the New Yor York Herald. The action of President Cleveland toward | Minister Sackville was known here only late | last evening, but at the leading clubs was the one topic of conversation and was bitterly con- demned by all Englishmen present. The gen- eral expression of opinion is of the tone as- sumed by the Standard, the only paper that | treats of the matter. Ina semi-official edito- rial this morning it speaks of the action as not | only brusque, but brutal, refers to the action | of the President as “deliberately offensive,” | and by oe “If the intelligence we publish this morning from Washington be substantially accurate in its verbal details the American Government | \ have taken sum: action of & deliberately | |¥ eae kind in relation to Lord Sackville.

It must | be hoped that a more precise account of the terms of the communication will take from the | a ve are tempted to say brutality— of the message. Apparently it has been pager necessary to assert American Sienity by insisting on some open rebuke of Sackville. The inference seems to be that Lord Salisbury saw nothing in his conduct to justify severe iplinary measures, and consequently American si famcaaty felt it necessary to take the punishment into itsown hands. In any case Lord Salisbury will be well advised if he proceeds with possible dispatch to | acquaint his countrymen with the nature of | his communication Mr. Phelps.
