How KENTUCKIAN Took THE BEES
Enoch Royalty, of Anderson county,
discovered bee tree few days ago, a
large poplar. The bees had found ho'-
low 107 feet from the root of the tree,
which they had taken possession of and
filed with honey. Enoch thought it
wonld be rich prize, SO he adopted the
following mode of securingit: Common
cling at the ground, he bored a large au.
CUR hole at height he could reach, in
which he put a strong pin; on this he
sat and bored another hole at a conven-
lent distance above, in which he drove
another pin, and proceeded in this way
until be reached the height of 107 feet,
where he deliberately cut off the top of
the tree. He then possessed himself of
he honey, rich in quantity and quality
secured the bees, and descended safely
to the ground. He proposes to make
another similar and more adventurous
conquest in short time. Above Oregon,
on the Kentucky river, there is cliff
200 feet high, and at the height of 100
feet there is evidently an immense bee
home, where the bees have been at work
from q time to which the memory of
man runneth not back to the contrary.
Enoch says that's his meat. and before
the season is over he intends to have it.

BRIDGING THE GANGEs.- A new end
important link has been added to the
India railway system by the completion
of the bridge over the Ganges at Gavin
pore. This work, which has been
under construction for some five or six
years, connects the East India with the
Dude and Rohilkund line, and thus
establishes direct communication with
Calcutta and Lucknow. This bridge,
for road and railway traffic. consists OF
twenty-five spans of lattice girders, Ito
feet each, and land span at each end
of 40 feet each. forming the entry to the
subway. This gives total length OF
$3.50 feet, a little over half mile.
Each pier, as completed. stands upon
an eighteen feet and ten feet wall. sunk
to depth of sixty feet below low-watel
level, and corbelled together below low
water, so that only solid pier is visible,
and is 30x1O feet to above flood level,
and then 10x1S feet with stone cap.
The whole str lcture may be said to be
of brick as only the pier caps and few
quoins and coping in the abutment are
in stone.

INCH BY INcH.-Observations regard.
ing the growth of man have determined
the following interesting facts "The
most rapid growth takes place immedi-
ately after birth, the growth of an in.
FAINT during the first year of its existance
being about eight inches. This ratio oi
increase gradually decreases until the
age of three years is reached, at which
time the size attained is half that which
it is to become when full grown. After
five years the succeeding increase is
very regular till the sixteenth year, be>
ing at the rate. for the average man, of
two inches year. Beyond sixteen the
growth is feeble, being for the follow
ing two years about six-tenths Of an
inch year; while from eighteen to
twenty the increase in beightis seldom
over one inch. Al the age Of twenty
five the growth ceases, save in few ex.
ceptional cases.

which the by-staders will not be likely
soon to forget. In the twinkling OF an
eye, upon the removal of the auger, the
wooden tubing shot out of the well like
stone driven from catapult. followed
by volume of gas, water, gravel and
mud that rose full 200 feet in the air,
with the trembling earth. the roaring
torrent, and the descending debris made
Mr.. Hahn and his co-laborers think
they had sruck the regions internal.
Stones weighing from ten to twenty
pounds were projected into the air, and
some of them fell crashing throuth the
roof of Mr.. Hahn's house near by; in
fact, the family were obliged to seek
shelter at neighbors, for human life
was not safe a moment in the farm
house. In tie neighborbood of Mr..

discharge of mud and water soon be-
