These insects erect pyra mids one thousand times higher than themselves!

An officer of the English army, while calling upon some ladies in Ceylon was startled by a rumbling sound. The ladies started with affright, and the next instant they stood with only the sky above I them; the roof had fallen in and lay all about, leaving them miraculously unharmed! The ants had made their way up through the bean s, hollowing them out until a great part of the frame-work of the house was ready to fall at the slightest shock. — Charles Frederick Holder, in SI.

A FORTUNE LOST AND WON. The fact has already been published in the Virginian that Mr. T. M. Ben son, the popular chief clerk of the Old Dominion Steamship Company at Newport News, was the fortunate win ner of one-tenth of th« capital prize of 1150,000 in the recent grand drawing of The Louisiana State Lottery. Th» preMsdispatchea had it that W. II Landon, of Newport News, had been the winner, and thereby hangs th» tale of how a very respectable fortum was loef «nd won. Tho particulars are as follows: A party of five had indi vidually purchased tenth tickets in th» last grand lottery. Among the five —Siul k yi.uth namad W. H.

The little party of biologists sent out by the Uiiiv«*isiiv of Pennayivanta to make investigations and researches have return«*«! with abundance of glory mil several boxes, tubs ami tanks full of curious specimens. The primary purpose of the jaunt was to give the party an opportunity to determine upon the Bahamas as the site of a biological marine station that the university de sires to establish and hopes to have in existence within three years. It already has a considerable fund (or that purpose. Tlu residence of the party during their stay was at a comfortable house three miles from Nassau, almost on the water’s edge. They lived in commu nity, each member taking charge of the men in turn. The cost was extremely modest. The men went to work nt ►nee, taking advantage of such assist ance as the people roundabout could afford. A young boatman and diver named Brown was found to be of great use, having already served three dis tinguished naturalists—Prof. Gardner, who was sent out by the English Gov ernment; Prof. Welden, of Cainbr'dge. and Prof. Brooks, of John Hopkins. All the party were good swimmers, and soon learned to do their own diving. Each provided himself with a crowbar and a water box, a small box with a plate-glass bottom. The glass, quieting the ripples on the surface of the sea, enabled them to see far down into the depths, many times to the very bottom. When any one saw a bit of rock-bearing coral, anemones, sponges, or other objects that he wished to se cure he tossed the glass aside, dived down, and pried the desired specimen loose with the crowbar and carried it up under his arm. Practice en abled them to stay a long time under water. Mr. Marshall frequently remained two minutes submerged. Dr. Dolleys says that any man can re main under water a considerable time if he will only simply make up his mind to do so. There is an intense feeling of oppression at first, but Dr. Doi ley says that it is simply nervousness, and soon passes away. Several medicinal plants were secured and experiments will be made as to their therapeutic value. Among them is a curious bean that animals are very fond of eating. At first the animals grow' fat and sleek. But in about two weeks their tails and manes drop off; in mother week their hoofs and horns, if they have horns, go. Then they grow weaker and weaker and finally die of fatty degeneration. B it even to the end they eat the beans with in- Ifinite relish. There are other plants in the collection that are used by the natives in the treatment of rheumatism and dysentery with apparent ¿ucccrs. The doctors are “bushmen.” who have learned the medicinal qualities of herbs and roots and trees by tradition. Governor Blake, for the party, sailed to the island of Alaco one day and settled the question as to whether tiamingos sit in or stand over their UftSts, a question about which natural ists have been in dispute these many yeais. Dr. Dolley says Governor Blake reported that flamingos sit in their nests like other birds. The party went sw imming at night in a wonder ful phosphorescent lake. At every stroke tho swimmers created waves of fire, and when they climbed out upon their boat their bodies seemed covered with myriads of flaming sparks.

On the 5 li of April, while Telengo was engaged in paying his m m, Ssu- hal asked Yu-che* ng to settle the debt. Yu-ch’eng refused and a quarrel com menced between tho two me >. T. lengo heard the noise nml nent for them, but when they came they refused to an swer his qu ‘stions and behaved in an insubordinate manner. He therefore commanded a petty officer named Fu- tungato fl »g them. Willie Ssu-hai’ was undergoing pun ishment, Yu-ch’eng took the oppor tunity to run off. but he was recapt ured by some soldiers sent after him, and was given one hundred blows, with a whip, on the legs. Next morn ing ho ran away again, but was again brought back. He was punished with seventy blows, after which ten more wore inflicted by Telengo himself, be cause he considered that sufficient se verity was n<»t being used. Telengo also said that he would report the case to the G -neral and have the man prop erly punish?«!. After this he went off with his troops to the drill ground, where he found an opportunity to speak to the General. The latter di rected that the man should be sent to the Q-lartermaster-Geiieral’s depart ment and dealt with there. A file of soldiers wore sent to take him across, but they found h m lying down uli able to move. When questioned he said that he was afraid of boing fur ther punished after the floggings he had received and had swallowed some opium which ha I been left from an entertainment given the day before. Remedies were applied, but without avail, and in a short time he was dead. The Memorialist finds that Telengo was right in ordering the deceased to be chastised, and that the flogging was inflicted on a proper portion of the body. B it the amount of the pun ishment, one hundred and eighty blows, was excessive. He therefore condemns Telengo to receive ninety blows, under the statute which deals with the offense of causing a man’s death by punishing him improperly. In addition, Telengo must pay TIs. 10 towards the deceased’s funeral ex penses. As Telengo is a commissioned ■ fficrr it will be the duty of the Board of Punishments to determine what form the penalty shall actually take. Fuiunga, who administered the bcat- ng, is condemned to receive eighty blows. The soldiers who were guard ing the deceased are condemned to receive sixty blows, under the law punishing gaolers who allow a prison er to commit suicide. As Ssu-hai, by quarreling with the deceased, was the original cause of what has occurred, he is condemned io receive eighty blows. Yu-clfeng being dead, no fur ther notice need be taken of his offense, and his debt to Ssu-hai is extinguish ed.— North China Her dd. terrible revenge.
