SPIDER INSTINCT. Cutting Web Thread to Eecapa From an Intruder. The UwtlDct of the Bplder Is always id Interesting subject fur study. Re; cently naturaliBt placed a small spi der In the center of a large' spider's web some four feet above ground. The large spider soon itoshed from its biding place under a leaf to attack the Intruder, which ran lip-one of the as tending lines by wik-b) tu web was ecured to the foliage. The bis insect gained rapidly upon tbe little one, but tbe fugitive was eqaal to the emergency, for when barely on inch ahead of tbe other it rut with one of its rear legs the line behind itself, thus securing Its own es cape, tbe ferocious pursuer falling to tbe ground. Tbe naturalist says: "It Is not the hatilt of spiders to cut the slender thread below them when they are as rending to avoid some threatened dim per unless there Is a hole close r,t band and a bole that is known to be Unoccupied.'.' From this It would seem thut the little creature's notion wustue result of some sort of reasoning. In Btlnct led It to run away, but it must hare been something more than lu stlDct that led It to sever the line and so cut off the pursuit. The same nuturallst snys tfcnt spi ders are citiinlljnls and that they are naturally pugnacious. But they do not fight for the satisfaction of eating one another. "When two EpWors fit-'ljt there Is generally a very good reason for the attack and the vigorous de fense that follows. "It is not generally known that nfter B certain time spiders become Inca pable of splinting a web from luck of material. The glutinous excretion 'from which the slender threads are spun is limited, therefore spiders can not keep on constructing new snares when the old ones are destroyed. Hut Ihey can avail themselves of the web producing powers of their younger neighbors, and this they do without neruple. As soon as n spider's web constructing material has become ex hausted and Its last web destroyed it pets out in search of another home, and unless it should chance to find one that Is lenantless a battle usually en sues, which ends only with the retreat 'or death of the invader or defender."
