TWO BCGB OF PREY.
1 One Chases the Cockroach and the
Other Catches Caterpillars. .
From the Waehinoton Star.
A Star reporter learned that two tugs,
common in Washington, are regarded with
uperstitlon. One of these is what house
keepers are accustomed to call the “ear
wig.” It has 100 legs, more or less, makes
its nests in people’s ears, and is as object to
attack with a slipper at every opportunity.
Asa matter of fact, this creature is not an
earwig at aIL An earwig is an insect,
while the bug with many legs, so common
here, is a “myriapod." The differences
distinguishing the tbetwo are too technical
to be worth defining in detail, but one of
them is that a true insect does not Lave
more than six legs, whereas some of the
myriapods have more than 2*). This par
ticular myriapod has fifteen i airs of legs.
The earwig, properly so called, is rare in
this country, though plentilnl in England,
where it Inhabits gardens chiefly, though
sometime) it is lured into bouses by lights.
It is about an inch in length, and its rear .a
furnished with u pair of long forceps that
may pinch a little. Most remarkable among
the traits of tbe earwig is the way it has of
brooding over its young after they are
hatched from the eggs. It is one of the very
few insects that take care of their progeny
after they have come into the world. The
earwig dues not make nests in people’s ears,
notwithstanding the popular notion to that
effect, and it is more cl sely related to the
grsisb ppr than to anything else.
Whereas the earwig is an outdoor animal,
nocturnal in its habits, tbe myriapod known
hereabouts by that name ft ids hou er its
most convenient habitat. Instead of de
stroying it. housekeepers ought to eocour
age it, because it is a deadly enemy to flies,
and most particularly to cockroaches. It
la a predatory creature, and feeds upon
these objectionable insects. The manner in
which it attacks and devours its prey is
interesting. It will approach a cockroach
quietly, and, leaping upon it, will embrace
It with its legs, passing its victim toward
its head fr m one pair of legs to another
until it gets it within reach of its jaws.
Then it bites into tbo body of tbe cockroach
and devours the soft parts, throwing away
the outer shell when the latter li emptied.
Very often this “cermautia t< creeps,’’ for
such is its scientific name, and it has no very
satisfactory popular one. sees a second eock
roaoh while it is devouring the first one.
With its prey in its mouth it leaps upon
cockroach No. 2, grasping the latter between
its legs until it has flniihed cockroach No. 1.
Having polished off oockroaeh No. 1, it
passes up cockroach No. 2 to its jaws, and
proceeds as before.
This myriapod—the term signifies "thous
and footed" is generally imagined to have a
poisonous bite, but entomologists do not be
lieve it ever attacks human beings. It is
most cleanly in its habits, spending its
entire leisure making its toilet; Its prefer
ence is for damp houses, probably not be
cause it prefers dampness itself, but because
the flies and cockroaches it preys upon fre
?[uent such localities. If you touch one it
alls to pieces, shedding its legs in a reckless
fashion.
The other bug referred to is found out
doors most plentifully in Washington, and
is popularly knowu as the “roarhorse."
Probably tnere is no insect in tbe world
about which so many superstitions are en
tertainsd. It is commonly called in other
parts of the world the "mantis,” the “pray
ing mantis,” the “soothsayer," and by many
other names. It is the most formidable
enemy of the oatemillar that commits such
depredations upon Washington trees, and is,
therefore, to be regarded with a decided
prejudice in ita favor. If you will look
oarefully in the winter time, you will find
upon the bare twigs and branches little
elongated clusters of rearhorse eggs, though
the c reature is not so easv to dis
cover in the summer time, because of the
w - ay it has of niimiclog in color and ap
pearance otherwise whatever it rests upon.
It has a first cousin known aa the "walking
stick," wbioh is so like a twig in appear
ance, with joints and shoots corresponding,
that you would never imagine it to be any
thing else unless you took it In your hand.
The mantis grows to be nearly three inches
long, and from its eggs qj\> frequently
hatched out, not only Its own young, but
other insects, which bore into the eggs after
they are laid, and subsequently come out of
them in the shape of flies.
It is a very remarkable thing to observe
a mantis In the act of uproaching a cater
pillar or other insect that it wishes to de
vour. It walks stealthily towards its in
tended prey, lifting one leg after the other
ever so slowly, until it is fairly upon the
object, which it seizes with its powerful
forelegs and proceeds to devour. Fre
quently the mantis flies about t .ward sun
set. It does not bite human beings, though
it may pinch a little. The mantis—its
name is Greek for “soothsayer”—gets this
name from the fact that for ages past it has
been thought to foretell event*. It is
called the “praying mantis” because, while
making for victims, it holds its forelegs in
the air in very much tbe attitude assumed
by a parson In prayer. Ou account
of the resemblance of this attitude
to the one they themselves assume in
supplicating the Deity Mohammedans
r everence the insect particularly. The su
perstition regarding it extends as far ns the
south of Africa, whore the Hottentots be
lieve that to kill one would oause the de
struction of all their flocks and herds and
future happiness. Among them if a mantis
alights upon the head of one of the tribe
that person is looked upon as a saint. Other
people believe that the mantis foretells
death and famine. If a child is lost and
Bsks the way to a place the insect will point
out the direction. In Europe it is common
ly consulted for advice in undertaking any
sort of enterprise, and is supposed to indi
cate disapproval by lowering its head
Young girls frequently asks Its advice on
questions of marr.age. In short, it is a di
vinity among bugs.
A DRIVE WITH A DEAD LOVER.
Carrie Wlswer’a Escort Expires in the
Buggy Beside Her.
From the Philadelphia Record.
The moit singular circumstances of
James 8. Baker’s death on Friday night of
last week are just disclosed. The genial
young Bethlehemite wai driving home from
a party with Miss Carrie Wism >r of Sola
bury. Mr. Baker suddenly exclaimed,
“Carrie, dear, 1 believe I am going to die.”
and in a few moments Mr. Baker lay dead
in the arras of his lady friend. Carrie seized
the lines and drove with one hand, while
with her otner arm she supported the dead
form of her lover. The drive to tie resi
dence of Miss Wisraer occupied half an hour
Young Baker’s deeth was due to heart
disease.
THE EMPRESS ELIZABETH OF
AUSTRIA,
Several years ago, after a severe spell of sick
ness. was advised by her house physicians to
use Johann Hoff s Molt Extract to rebuild
her weakened constitution. It acted so admir
ably that in appreciation the Emperor Francis
Joseph ordered Mr. .Johann Hoff to his court
and not only appointed him Purveyor to the
Austrian Court but also decorated him with the
Order of the Golden Cross and Crown. Tnis
was a distinction not often received by e vil ans
and merchants, and it made him a Knight in
Austria. In 1876 he also received the Order of
the Crown from Emperor Wllheim
Jobann Hoff's Extract of Malt has become
known all over the world. No less than half a
million bottles are imported annually in. o the
Lotted S tat as from Berlin, through the asreots
there. Messrs. Eisner A Mandelson Cos. of New
xork.
There it nothin? "just as Rood” when you can
obtain the genuine article, which must have the
signature of “Johann Hoff' 1 on the neck of
every bottle. Take no imitation.
