The usual method of keeping the star on the plate in photographing was by moving the telescope, but owing' to the size of the instrument at the Lick Observatory this was impossible, as the telescope weighed seven tons. The plan adopted, there fore, was to make the plate movable by means of turning screws. When the photographer wished to do some of his work the tiling first to bo done was to move th that a lens could end.

In Lake Nyassa, in the interior of "Darkest Africa," there is a kind of blacklist! which every year builds what the natives term a house. In the mud at the bottom of the lake it makes a hole some, two or three feet broad, heap ing up the mud removed from theholu so as to form a little wall around it. The depth of the hole and the height of the wall measured together make a basin from fifteen to twenty inches deep. In this lake within a lake this queer little fish erects a madhouse, the average-sized specimen measuring four teen inches across the bottom, rapidly coming to a. point in the shape of a broad cone. A hide four inches in di ameter, always on the south side, serves as an opening for egruss and in gress. A dried specimen of this queer domicile preserved in the Uoynl Muse um at lierlin has two doors, and a par tition separating it into two rooms. , The Iillri r.-n ' rn;,ture t: i I The ostrich has many strange ways, and I was particularly interested in studying them, says a writer in Forest and Stream. They g in ilocks of three or four females and one male about their nesting time, and for several weeks before locating their nests the hens drop their eggs all about the pam pas. These are called haucho eggs (pronounced "watcho"), and are much more delicate in flavor than the eggs taken from the nests. They have a thinner shell, and when fresh laid are of a beautiful golden color. We cooked them by roasting them before the lire. We would first break a hole in the small end of the egg. large enough to insert a teaspoon. The egg would be set up among some hot ashes, a pinch of salt and pepper put in to it, and the contents kept st irred with a stick so that all would be done alike. The flavor is excellent, and one egg would satisfy a very hungry man. As soon as the ostriches decide upon a suitable place for a nest, the male bird scratches away the grass and slightly hollows out the ground for a space of about three feet in diameter. All the hens of the (lock lay in the same nest until there are from twenty five to thirty-five eggs laid. The male birds then take possession and sit on the eggs until they are hatched. Aa soon as the flock can leave the nest, the old fellow leads them away to feed on flies and small insects, and every thing is lovely until he espies another male bird with a brood. As soon as the old birds see each ather they make a peculiar booming ostrich disap old ones then approach each other and engage in a most deadly conflict. They fight until anc or the other is killed or runs away. The remaining one will then utter an other peculiar sound, and both broods will spring up from their hiding places and follow the victor, who struts off as proud as a peacock. I have seen old male ostriches with three broods, each of a different size, two of which they had captured.
