a Broker "COnfideneed."

A. Wilkins, acknowledged to be one
of the shrewdest stock brokers in De-
troit was lately robbed of $4,000 in
bonds by one Of the most nicely arranged
confidence games yet concocted. Two
strangers hired an office ostensibly to
purchase and sell bonds and had desk
peculiarly constructed, SO arranged that
by putting anything in a pigeon hole
and shutting the door it could be taken
out of the back part, by second oper-
alor.
The confidence men sent for Wilkins,
and informed him they wanted TO buy
$4,000 in bonds. He handed the bonds
to the first operator, who put them ipto
the pigeon hole, shut the door, proceed,
ed 10 draw a check, and requested VIII.
kins to wait n few moments while he
went to bank. Wilkins waited about
one-half an hour, got uneasy, opened
the pigeon hole, and discovered that the
bonds had been distracted.
The two swindlers are now in Cana.
da, enjoying the profits of the operation,
and laughing at the broker.

He is said to be very fond of her, and
the way he came to get her was this :
Some time ago we courted her, but find
ing she was on the make, threw her of,
after shooting her brother and two cous-

to marry any man who would horsewhip
us. This Sam agreed to undertake, and
she married him on that promise. We

1t was the design of the Patentee in con-
structing this hive to furnish Bee-r -raisers
with hive that would meet the appreciation
Of that class which keeps for the honey only,
and to overcome the mlsiortunes that nave OF
late years belallen bees namely-dylng IN the
winter from changes of temperature, and de-
struction by worms in the summer.
The reason the bees die of in the winter is
chiefly ON account of the exc 7ss Of animal heat
thot arises from their bodies causing an un-
hpaltby hive, When the weather becomes
chongeable the animal heat will condense and
tn,n Ia frost in the hive and when the wealth
erturns warmer this frost returns to water
and running down over the comb and bees
enIsp them TO become wet and if the weather
tnns suddenly cold. as it often does, the bees
viii nerish Bv the comfortable ventilation
or tb6 cottnpe hive this difficulty can be avoid
cd In the working season the bees will wax
m the wire cloth over the ventilation hole in
lie ton of the end hOards A but in the fall af-
fer the bees 0llit working the roof board b,
Hhat is secured by four screws) is to be taken
ar and the wax removed from the wire cloth,
and the bees will not require any more atten-
ti0n through the winter except that the bee
entr9rre does NOT ret stOpped up by snow or
other matter, this ventilation will keep the
hive drv and healthy and the bees win re-
main more inactive and will not require as
much honey TO sustain them through the win
fer
The hanging covers of the gOuZe covered
the inner side So as to admit the passage of
sulficIent air for ventilation, but exclude snow
and the passage of too much air in winter.
At N are seen slides by which the commu-
nicatinr passages between the body of the
hive and the honey boxes may be regulated,
or may be closed When desired. This slide is
operated by lever o extending through the
side of the hive.
The Patentee claims by experience there
with, that by the use of the ventilated cottage
hive, the bees will be made to swarm from
two to four weoks earlier in the spring than
by any other hive in use By the advantage
of the ventilation in keeping the hive dry, the
egg, grubb or young bee viii not perish in the
months OF February and March. They will
therefore swarm, il the weather will permit,
by the last of April or the first May
The construction of the bee entrance G II f,
enables the bees to guard against the miller
that frequents the hive to deposit the egg for
the worm the entrance being Of a hopper
shape, the bees in the evening will hang orlie
