About 400 Different Srecies Are Known to Naturalists. One of the first nutunillHts who de- j voted iheinseheit to watching fleas, with such mlrroMoopps na were then avanauie. wat iruHeuuw., uU.u man. who lived at the end of theseven teenth century. Leen wen hoek discov ered that a small mite fed on the flea, and it was this discovery which In spired Swift's familiar lines: Bo. naturalists observe, a flea Hath smaller fleas that on him prey. -. And these have smaller still to bite 'em. And so proceed ad infinitum. The flea's parusite, however, to be accurate, is not another flea or eveu another insect, but Is t mite classed atnoug the sarcoptldae. Lin naeus, writing in 1758. described only two species of flea. . The first, which was the human flea, he rightly named Pulex irrltans. The second was the chigoe of hot countries. To this, on Recount of .its burrowing habit, he gave the name of Pulex penetrans. 'At the present day about 400 different species of fleas have been described and named by the small band of scien tific men who have devoted themselves to their study. Most of these have been discovered within quite recent years, so it Is probable that many new forms and varieties will be collected and observed. narold Russell in Lon don National Review.

O. Kingwith his Maxwell 30 horsepower stock car. Oldfield lowered his previous record of one mile to 51 5-6, which is a new coast record for the circular track. With the exception of this performance, Oldfield had to take second place in the list of racing honors, as the world's champion met defeat in both the five and fifteen mile handicap events, and in both races King and his Maxwell were the victors. In fact, King proved the surprise of the meet, driving all bl bis races with much judgment and taking the turns with his car as close to the fence as did Oldfield. In the five mile handicap, Oldfield drove his Knox racer to the utmost, hut the handicap was too strong and he could not get the lead away from King.. Not only in the handicap events did King and his Max well prove stars of the first order, but in one of the first events of the day, the five mile race for cars costing from $1200 to $1600, which was one of the bestmatches of the meet. ; ' , The time for the five mile handicap was as follows:1 Maxwell, King, 4.40.30; Oakland, Nelson, 4.48.25; Chalmers, West, 4.49.30; Auto Car , finished fourth, and the Knox car, Barney Oldfield driving, fifth. In the event number eight, ten miles free-for-all handicap, King ' and his Maxwell again were the winners, the Maxwell's time being 919.30. . J. B. Whitemain & 108. Elm Street.
