FENCING A PASTIME.
A Lobater
lianl for 0h
That Pl«hta
[Liberty.
That fewlng Is a pastime among
lobster^ I hsve no doubt from some
little experience I have bad with them.
Once 1 found a lobster near low water
In a pool some nine feet long by six
feet wide, having a rough bottom and
eight or ten inches of water on It, w'th
a cavern at each end. Although I wae
ariuwrt it'll a vmb hwih. •' trcm
about three feet long the cxtreire dart-
ing and fencing of the lobster were
too much for me to grapple with.
When In the deeper ravema I found
it could see me through the water as
plainly as I could, so that the better
constructed eyes of the genus homo
had no advantage over the rough, hard
stalk eyes of the crustacean. and as 1
could not get to gaff across it every
effort 1 made was evaded. At last,
however, by mere vigorous and ener-
getic gutting 1 made the cavern so
uncomfortable for tho lobster that like
a lightning flash It darted between my
legs and back into 1'- old haunt. Here
the same gar>e «veat oa. and with llkt
results, for in a moment he was again
between my l«*gs" and back Into his old
haunt. Finally, becouil.'g tired of gaf-
fing and mlsoiilg (for I'm fonclng was
perfect and could not have been
achieved without long practice) I de-
clined to be be'en by a mere cruita
etan. and p*.j ^ded to bail out tho
pool. It was only by this e.fort that
I eventually conquered H. And here
I • must confcss that throughout the
battle so d04t. -afty a;>d subtle were
its actions that it waa lii:e fighting a
being endowed with human Intelli-
gence. I have further proof that they
manifest a severe martial spirit in the
sea when bunting for food. It Is noth-
ing uncommon for fUhernmp when
drawing up their traps in the morn-
ing to flud the large claw of another
lobster in the pot beside the piisoner,
says the Contemporary Review, and
there have b *e«i Instances where three
large claws have been four-J together
with the abov • . > :.dltl m. aud a lobster
with one erra. as a primer, showing
that In a recent fl*ht the victor hid
lost one antl the vanquished both nrms
lint these are only trifles when com-
pared with that the late Sir Is ac Oof
fln saw when on the coast of Nova
Scotia, for it is given on his authority
tfcat he once witnessed a terrible balt'e
between two armies of lohsieis. and
that they fougM with such ('ury that
t)i£ shore was s'rewu with claws.

The Trot «t nt Pop: ."
Pope Ciement XIV. n s Uen called
the "Protestant Pope," because he is-
sued a bull in 1773 suppr-rslng the or-
der of Jesuits. ThiB so.noty waa ea-
tabllshcd by Ijtnatlus de t-oya'.o in 1537
to * stablisb t>ie power of tlie I'oiie.
Protestants, kings and national b.sh-
ops were to b« regarded as enemlci,
aud it became the mo.U Influential so-
ciety in the church. In 16r-6. when the
Jesuits were In the heUht of thi Lr
power, Pascal published a book against
them, and from that time the'r influ-
ence declined, until France, P rtugal.
Spain and otner countrlca of ^uropj
demanded that the Pope abolish the
order, whleh w.vs afterward restored by
Plus VII . in 1915.
