Adams -us that under Hie "fortress" which i lie mole eoustiiiets above Hit surface f the ground will always he found a series of tunnels running out beneath the adjacent Held. A curious feature almost Invariably found Is a perpeu dlciilar run penetrating about a foot below the hoi torn of the nest n nil then turning upwaid to meet another run A mole Is never found In his nest, al though It may yet be warm from his body when opened. Culdi-d by smell and heating, a mole freiiiently locates the nest of a partridge or pheasant above his tun and, penetrating It fioui below, eats the eggs. The adult mole Is practically blind, but there are em bryonic Indications that the tower of sight In the race tins deteriorated.

ALL OF AUSTRALIA THREATENED BY STRIKE; MELBOURNE, Dec. 1C Tho car riers' strike at Adelaide has taken on a serious aspect. Almost nil the In dustries are at n standstill In conse quence of a sympathetic strike, and the price of food Is rising rapidly.
