Surveyor Gen. Reed, who was in
St. Louis when the telegram III regard
to Secretary Delano and himself,
which was published in the LEADER
of the nth inst, appeared in the news
papers of the country, at once sent the
following card to the Democrat:
ST. Louis, May 10, 1915.
To the Editor of the Democrat:
The telegram of your Washington
correspondent in to-day's Democrat
makes an unauthorized use of my
name in connection with a malicious
conspiracy going forward against Sec
rotary Delano.
The original authors of this impO-
tent raid upon Secretary Delano and
son and myself are United States OFF,
cials-one being an assistant secretary
in the State Department, the other a
United States Marshal of Wyoming.
When the proper time arrives, L am
prepared to ventilate the base conduct
and purposes of these men,. .1s.d.
There is scarcely a truthful para
graph in the whole letter of your cor
respondent as far as it relates to myself
and the other gentlemen named.
1t is a serious mistake they make in
supposing that the Presidents conf
dence is at all diminished i'll the Off
cial integrity of Secretary Delano.
Such attacks as these, from such
sources, and SO base and frivolous in
character, can safely be de6ed by the
friends of the Secretary.
The combined conspirators hoped to
deceive the President into a sudden
reorganization Of his Cabinet, but they
have failed in this, and somebody else
will get hurt before the raid termi-
mates.
r Very respectfully, etc. p .-z-

Intelligence of Bees.

A writer in the London Spectator
vouches for the truth of the 70 lowing
story, which certainly shows that bees
have the power of communicating with
each other, and also Of concerning sa-
gacious and successful plan of action: A
boy, amusing himself with pet jackdaw
in the garden one evening, approached an
aviary, and the bird hoped on the plat
form in front of one of the hives. The
bees had nearly all come home from their
days labor, but the few laggards lowering
about their door as Jack stood beside it
were instantly snapped up by him. This
massacre had continued for minute or
so when some bees issued from the Goor If
the hive as if to reconnoiter. They were
dispatched like the rest and then there
came an ominous pause No bee made
himself visible, but there was loud, an
cry hum of excitement within the hive.
Presently there poured from the outlet of
the citadel Il swift, strong, unbroken stream
of bees aimed directly at the offending
jackdaw. He was attacked on every side,
and, overpewered by numbers, fled at
once; but rapidly as he shot away he
could but keep neck and neck with his
pursuefs, that like cloud enveloped him
for the distance of nearly mile. He
then fell t1uttering to the earth and the
boy picked him up with his eyes closed
and his head swollen to twice its natural
size

Boiling Lake in Dominica.

The announcement of the discovery of
boiling lake in the Island of Dominica,
or Dominique, was made in these columns
few weeks ago. Since then the Trinidad
Chronicle has published an account of a
visit to the spring by Mr.. H. Prestoe, Su-
perintendent of the Trinidad Botanic Gar
dens. The lake lies in the mountains be-
hind the village of Roseau, and in viii
lage Astounding in solfataras. 1t is said
to he two miles in circumference, and on
precipitous banks some sixty feet in
height. The temperature of the lake
ranges from 1870 deg. to 100 deg Fair
The point of .ebullition varies somewhat,
but consists of cone of water rising from
two to four feet above the general surface,
and sometimes divides into three smaller
cones. No detonations occur, but during
the ebullition the whole surface Of the
lake is violently agitated. The water is
colored deep, dull gray, and is highly
charged with sulphur and decomposed
rock. A sulphurous vapor rises with
equal density over the entire lake, there
being no sudden election Of gas at the
point of ebullition. The outlet of the lake
is constantly deepening and lowering the
level of the water, hence Mr.. Prestoe con-
lectures that the lake will ultimately be
changed into a geyser. The banks of the
lake arc also cons SANITY crumbling, and
their fall will in fine fill up the basin OF
the geyser and resolve it into innumerable
solfataras No bottom was found with a

City Bee Culture.

A manufacturer, of summer drink,
which seems to be quite popular during
the present heated weather, has taken a
store in the neighborhood of our offices,
and placed in the shOw-wind0W bee
hive, in which, in full view ofthe crowd
which constantly gathers, the busy insects
make the honey which, it is asserted, is
mingled with the cooling beverage. The
window is open at the top, and the bees
are allowed to collect their materials from
the Street refuse. The honey seems to be
of excellent quality, and the bees REQUIRE
no further care nor attention than if for
aging among their favorite clover fields.
AT the fair of the American Institute last
fall a very fine case of honey was exhib-
tied, the contents of which, we were in
formed, had been obtained by the bees en-
tirely~ from the swill barrels, the sugar
house waste, and the flowers In the public
parks of the city. There was nothing
about the material to distinguish it from
the best honey made from clover, and il
should and probably did find a market

Do not get upon your knees when You

Do not gel, upon your knees when you

your clothes. Put the sheaves in place
with your hands, or pitchfork may be
used to good advantage with little prac-
tice, only be careful to place the sheaves
close together and tramp the center well.
After the process Of widening the rick Is
fairly begun, do not walk upon the out
side course, for in this way it may be en-
larged to a wonderful extent without
danger ofslipping, and allow the outside
to settle enough more than the inside, so
that the butt ends of the sheaves will ex-
tend downward more than they can be
placed in the ordinary way of stacking.
The side of the stack should be ex-

the top let the butts hang we'll downward

A Mother Finds Her Boy After q
Thirteen Years. Search.

Yesterday a woman met her son whom
she had not seen for nearly his whole life.
The circumstances are as follows. Seven
teen years ago a New York merchant
named Smith died, leaving wife and
four children. His business affairs were
found to be much involved, and it APP
peared as if his debts would largely sex-
coed his assets. A few weeks after his
death fifth child was born and Mrs.
Smith, thinking that she would hardly be
able to maintain so large family, con-
sented to give the posthumous boy to the
brother of her husband, a lawyer by pro-
fession. When the estate was settled she
received her dover. which shes had not
known che wass untitled to above III debts,
and found herself well to do. She then
desired to take back her youngest, but
could not. The brother left the city, and
after moving number of times settled
down in Grand Rapids The boy grew
up and passed for the real son Of his
adopted father. A short time ago he
went to Kansas, but did not stay long,
and ON his return went to work in plan
ing mill. ''''@i< - 'r,'4S s'za'.s@.4 .'-.~a.

search was conducted until finally the
couple, Mr.. and Mrs. Fairchild, came to
Grand Rapids, having heard of Mr.. Smiths
residence there. On arriving there few
days since they found that Mr. Smith and
wife had gone East, and that Willy had
left the mill and gone to work near
