ant He was known for many years
as "the bucket-man. But his title to

he was the champion gluttOn Of the

devoured at a single meal a whole tur-
key, leg of mutton, pound of cheese,
several pounds Of bread and a bucket
full of wine. In 1876 he had an eating

only able to eat eight pounds of NUT

pounds of bread, and was therefore

Hon. Charles Parlange, who repre-.

devotes his leisure time to bee culture.
He now has 800 colonies. after losing
forty to sixty in the bal wint of
1880-81. He made a $4,000 honey crop
in one year, and has sold $25, 600 worth
of honey in all, although for a period
of three years he obtained no honey,
for some cause. In 1874. during the
overflow, he extracted 100 pounds of
honey in three months, one colony that
season giving him thirty-eight gallons
This is the largest yield ever reported
east of the Rocky mountains. He has
shipped to New Orleans, New York,
st. Louis, Cincinnati, and even Eu-
rope, but foreign shipments did not
pay. His example has caused many
others to commence bee culture, and
thus added many thousands to the
wealth of the parish.-LouiSiGna Su-

I must soon pass away" he argued.
"All things considered it is better that
my successor be nominated and in
stalled while am living to give him
the benefits of my experience and ad-
vice"
There was general Joy among the
Beasts, for the Lion had lorded it
after his own fashion. The Elephant
was squirting around, the Rhinosceros
was pushing his nose into the crowd,
and the Giraffe was doing a heap of
thinking way down his throat when
the Lion continued
"After serious reflection and solemn
consideration have decided that my
own son shall succeed me. The Office
will not only be kept in the family,
but the family will be kept in office.
There being no further business before
the meeting we will adjourn"
"But why the need of this conven-
tion?" protested the Rhinosceros.
"Well, there wasn't any particular
need of it" replied the Lion, "but it
is customary to call one in order to col
lect the expenses of nomination.
Brother Giraffe, pass the hat!"
