He could not discover any evidences
of affection for each other among bees.
A bee held by pincers among others or
even killed in their presence, did not at
tract the least notice from them In
everything but in the collection OF stores
for common use they seem to be entirely
selfish.
In regard to their material senses, ne
could mot discover any proof OF their
possessing the faculty of hearing. He
could not get them to notice mere noises
Of any sort. Screams, shouts, whistlings
and ddle-playing were thrown away
NJ on them, yet h. b. He red they recog-
nized some sounds, because they made
varying sounds themselves, aswith pur-
nose. Their scent is evidently keen.
Bees always came out OF the hive when
few drops of Cologne water were dropped
at the entrance; and as the same bees
constantly came, when this was done
seven or eight times in succession, It
seemed that these were stationed sentl-
nels. Bees evidently distinguish cclors.
When placed to feed on honey dropped
upon papers of different colors, the same
bee invariably returned to the same color
for more. If the positions of the colored
papers were changed, they would recoii,
buzz around for awhile, and then, having
found the color they had visited before
thew would settle on it. So it appears
that the colors of flowers, of positive
aesthetic value to US, are of practical and
material use to the bees.
Sir John saws that he observed evil
dence of great variations in the degree OF
intelligence possessed by individuals
among bees Some were long in finding
an intricate way to some covered cup OF
| sweets and required repeated assistance
| before they could remember the way
Others needed only to be shown it once
As to ants, the evidence of communi-
cation and concerted action seemed
stron~. As one test, honey was placed
on one only of several little tables made
of cMds by pushing long pins through
the corners up to the head and sticking
them into board Single ants placed
with the honey and presently returning
to the nest always brought friends along
sometimes but one, sometimes as many
as twenty. And in nearly ali cases al
the ants went up the pins of that seat

Ringing for water.

"Wall dye s'pose [ kin git him back

Certainly" said the other, "you have
only to ring for him. and he nodded to-
wards the bell-line that ran above their
heads.
No sooner said than done. Before any
one could prevent it Rusticus had seized
the line and giving it tremendous tug
TIE consequence was at once obvious:
three sErill whistles were heard, half a
dozen brakemen ran to their posts, and
the train came to stand still with a sud-
denness that started half the passengers
with establishment, and caused every man
next to a window to hoist it and look out
to see what was the matter.
In few minutes the conductor, red
and excited, came loaming into the car to
know who pulled at the bell rope.
"Hcre, mister, this way; I'm the man. .
shouted the offender, drawing all eyes
upon him.
You" said the conductor "and what
did you do it for?''
Cos | wanted some water"
"Wanted some water?"
"Sartain, wanted the water boy, and

so yanked the rope. Will he be along
soon" And. by the bye, what in thun-
der be you stoppin' for?

honest confession was too much for the

Mr.. Smiths Verified Dream.
Morristown Tenn Gazette.

M OFItstOWh leAIssJ oaZette.
Moses Smith, living about six miles
west of this place, is a well known, in
dustrious and wellto-do farmer, and a
man whose word Is respected by his
Seighbors. He recites very remarkable
case of premonition CT danger through
the agency Of dreams, which we think
of sufficient interest to repeat Mr.. Smith
has been a widOwer for years. and occu-
pies his house alone. BY economy and
thrift he has managed to accumulate
about $500 in gold, which he kept iu q
wooden box in his bedroom. For two
nights in succession he dreamed that rob-
bers broke into his house and carried off
his golden treasure. The second occasion
OF the vision happened lass Wednesday
night week. Thursday he had made ar
engagements to visit this town on business,
but the siHgularity Of the dream was so
impressed upon his mind that before Ieav-
ing home, lie removed bis gold from the
box and hid it in hollow stump 10 the
field. Thursday evening upon returning
to his home he found his house had been
broken into, and ransacked, and the box
in which his treasure was usually kerc
bursted open and scattered on the floor.
He is well satisfied that had it not been
for the timely warning by dream, he
would have lost his gold.

The Arkansas Way of DispOSing of n
Rival.
Arkadelphia Standard.

ONduudIu-
Capt. J. C. Ray and Mr.. J. P. Hull
sey left this place one day last week for
Pike county, for the purpose of capturing
the desperate, Ambrose H. White,
charged with murder, and who escaped
custody, and has since set the authorities
at defiance. They state he was captured
just before their arrival there by two
brothers named Cox and afterward, in
attempting to escape, was shot and killed
by one of the Coxes. 1t appears that
White had been on terms of intimacy for
some time past with girl that one of the
Cox boys wished to marry, but, the girl
preferrihg White, was preparing to leave
the country with him. This excited the
anger.of Cox, and he, with hrs brother
agreed upon Whites capture. Being on
intimate terms with him, they rode up to
the house of the girl, where White was,
and he, being unsuspicious of danger
greeted them kindly. He was sitting on
a chair, with his gun across his lap, and,
while one of the Coxes engaged him IN
conversation, the other got behind him,
and at a favorable moment seized him
from behind and pinioned his arms, while
the other presented a revolver at his breast
and disarmed him. White then tried to
beg of, promising to leave the country
and not harm them. They refused to re-
lease him, when White asked the priv
ilege Of getting drink of water. When
on the way to the well he broke and run,
and was shot by one of the Coxes through
the body, but ran some distance before he
fell Cox then ran up to him, when White
begged him not to shoot him, as he was
already dead man. Cox replied, "No
d-n you, you might get up, so look out
for your head-here goes" and fired,
shooting him through the temple, killing
him instantly. The other Cox had his
hands full in managing the girl, who
showed pluck and disposition to defend
White with her life. Pike county is thus
rid of a very desperate and dangerous man.
and though his taking off was to satisfy
personal revenge rather than violated law,
the people of that county have reason to
be glad of it. If Pike can now get rid OF
the Coxes it would be all the better for it

why He Killed Him.
Courier Journal, 18th.

1t will be remembered that dispatches
to the C5arier-Journal, from Boone county,
detailed the unprovoked shooting of
man named Millener by a stage driver
named Webster. A correspondent Of the
Commonwealth has the following in ref
erence to the shooting: Some facts con-
nected with the shooting of Millener by
Webster might throw some light upon
the matter. In 1864 Aleck Webster, a
brother of the homicide, was a Conleder-
ate soldier. He came home to Critten-
den, and surrendered under the cartel
He was sent to Williamson Jail BY the
commanding officer, who ordered the
guard 20 close" him ON the road. The
prisoner became aware Of the sentence,
but could not escape, and at a point a
half mile above Crittenden he was killed
and his friends were refused his body.
The man MilleDer was one of the guard,
and with fiendish brutality fired into the
boby of Webster after life had been for
some time extinct have this from a
credible source. My informant lived in
the neighborhood of Crittenden at the
time, and says it is reliable. If true, it
