$4,000 FOR a WIPES PROTECTION.
A Congressman Who Loves His Wife
More Than Treasure.


ELMRA, n. Y, June l0.--The fact that
the recent robbery of $4,000 worth of
diamonds from the residence of the Hon.
c. C. B. Walker, in Corning, during his
absence, was committed with the greatest
ease, because the safe in which the Jew
elry was kept was not locked, has given
rise to much surprise and unfavorable
comment. No one could understand
how man of the Congressman's strict
business methods could be so careless in
regard to the protection of his household
treasures, especially as many of them,
through ASSOCIATION and long family pos
session, had a value to him much beyond
their intrinsic wogth. When questioned
on the subject by friend the latter was
still further surprised to be told by Mr..
Walker that the fact of the safe being left
open was not the result of carelessueSs
or thoughtlessness, but it was left open by
his express order and direction. "Whcn
| am home," said the eX-CongreSsman, T
always lock the safe and put the key away.
When 90 away from home tbs understood
III MY mousse ludt lue Silc must NOT
be locked You will remember that
when the Wcllsboro Bank was robbed
few years ago the cashier and members
OF his family were treated with great
cruelty and violence by the robbers be-
cause of their resisting demands for the
keys to the vaults and safe. That set me
to thinking, and one day l said to my
wife, 'We have some things In that safe
which are valuable and very dear to us.
Now, it is only question of time when
some
RUFFiAN OR RUFFIANS
will come after them. If am home the
chances are that they will not get them,
but may be away at the time. If they
come then and find that safe locked they
will hesitate at no personal violence to-
ward you in their efforts to effect an en-
trance to It, All the precious relics and
treasures In the world would not be re-
cempenso for the results Of such treat.

rANDARD- MEANWHILE. TENNESSEE MARS 1884

McMinnville. We understand the com.
pany will not use their earnings to build
new lines, but will issue treasury stock
for sufficient amount to build the line
and put it in operation. So if Nc.
Minnville desires to be connected with
Nashville, Memphis, Evansville, and
other sections Of the country to which
this company has lines extended, we
must subscribe stock at the rate of
abot 800 per mile. We are not pre-
pared to say whether our people want
to take the necessary stock or not. If
it can be shown beyond question that
theIstock would pay a dividend of 8pcr
cent. per annum. or even Z per cent,
there would be no trouble to get the
required amount of stock taken. Our
people want the connection, but we
can't say now whether they will sub.
scribe the required amount Of stock
or not. This is matter for our peo>
pie to consider and govern themselves
accordingly. We should be glad to
see the line extended, not only to
Woodbury. and this place, but to other
adjoining counties. On the question
of turnpike to Woodbury., we are for
that. We want to see the county pro-
vide means to meet our Cannon neigh.
bors at the line. If the county will
not do the work, then we are in favor
Of organizing stock company to build
it, for the same reasons we are in favor
of building other turnpikes. We are
in favor of extending to our sister
counties adjoining us a proposition to
meet them with turnpikes at the coun'
ty line. Shall we do it, or shall we
continue to drag along through the
mud, as we have been doing, and
occupy a position in the back woods

BILE and happy, is not only a benefactor
but wise man. 1t will be a grand
mistake if Warren county lets the op.
portunity pass, and allows her public
roads to be built and owned by corpo.
rations. If the roads are built by tax
alton, capitalists will paya large pro.
portion of the taxes tobuild them, and
the poorer classes will receive the benz
efts of the roads. But if they are
built and owned by capitalists, the
farmers, who use the roads most, will
pay the largest tribute to the road
owners. 1t certainly would be unwise
for the county not to build and own
the roads.

TURNPIKE TO sMITHvILLE.

An effort is being made, with pros.
poets of success, to get up a stock com.
pany to build a turnpike from McMinn.
vile to Smithville. The proposition
is to subscribe the stock, build five
miles this year, put up gate, and con.
tinue the road. Subscription lists were
this week placed in the hands of W.
g. Womack, in town, and J. B. Ma
son, in the country. Already enough
stock is taken to build two and one
half miles. Quite surplus of capital
is beginning to accumulate in the coun.
try as we'll as in the town. Many
farmers now in Warren and adjoining
counties have money to lend, and with
another year of good crops and pros
perity our people will have spare capi>
tai to invest inpaying stocks and bonds.
1t is believed by some of our best
financiers that turnpike stock, if judi.
ciously managed, in any one of the
five principal roads proposed to be
built from McMinnville, will pay good
dividends. If it will pay stock compa-
MES good dividends, it certainly would
pay the county to build and own the
roads. If we could lift the yell and
let our County Court and the people of
this county see five or ten years into
the future and behold the blessings and
benefits of a judicious system of turn.
pixies, they would not allow these roads
to be built and owned and controlled
by capitalists, but would at once go to
work and build them, and build them
quickly. There is no estimating the
value of general system of good
turnpikes. Say nothing of their con-
veniences to the people, the increased
value they would bring to real estate
would double the cost of building the
roads. Now is the time to begin to
provide means to commence work.
Let not only Warren, but let every
other county in the State aggitate the
question and get the people ready, and
at the next session of the Legislature
all the necessary legislation to facili-
tate the building of the roads can be
had.

ON THE EVE OF A BOOM.

Warren county already occupies a
prominent position on account of her
manufactures, her schools, her agri.
cultural industries, her mercantile in.
terests, her banks and the intelligence
of her population; but if we are not
mistaken the county will soon begin
system OF internal improvements in
the way of turnpikes which will place
her in the front rank with the leading
counties Of the State. Our people are
industrious and enterprising, but
rather cautious and slow to start in the
work of public improvements. We are
glad to see them cautious and prudent,
but when our duty and our interests
are so plainly indicated, like Moses at
the Red Sea, we should go forward and
do our duty and risk the consequences.
Go forward should he our motto until
we are out of the land of Egypt.

The road in contemplation is one of
Importance and no doubt if properly
managed would pay good dividends on
the investment; but we believe it would
be better for this, and all other turn
pixies to be built, owned and controlled

LOOK AFTER YOUR BEES.

This is q fine section of country for
bee culture, and the reason OF our poor
success is a want of proper care and at
tention to our bees. The writer speaks
from experience. We have neglected
our bees, having so many other things
to attend to. So far as we know those
who have given proper attention to
their bees have found the business q
source of profit. But the apiary, as
we'll as every other business, to be a
success must have attention, and especi.
ally now as well as during the swarm
ing period. The hives, if not already
reprinted and put in order should at
once be attended to. Carefully exam
inc the condition of every colony and
remove any moths and other enemies
of the bees that may be found secre-
ted in the hive. Put them in order
and feed little, if needed, until the
bees can feed themselves. One of the
troubles we have in some localities is
the ant. During the honey season,
while the bees are buslly storing honey,
sometimes the ants are equally as
busy conveying it away. These little
rascals are to be admired for their in.
dustry, but if numerous about your
apiary they must be destroyed or your
hives placed in a situation that they
cannot have access to them, or they
will carry away much of your honey.
Watch your bees, study their nature
and habits and encourage them in
their work. Watch for and destroy
their enemies, and unless the season i:
very unfavorable they will return you
a handsome reward for all your trouble
The business is not only profitable il
we'll managed, but a source of great
pleasure. But like every other bust
ness, it requires thought and study
