In allusion to recent decisions of
the Supreme Court Of California, the
Stockton Mail feels jastifable in say
ing: ''Reverence for the courts Is
b ing raj idly destroyed, which is a
good thing. Judges are only men,
and a pretty poor sort of men on the
whole. When solemn old humbug>
find that their office does not protect
them from contempt when they de-
serve 1t, they will think less of their
dignity and more OF their duty.

to their approval by l5ud cheers,
which the immense crowd outside
took up and answered back, aud
another cheer went up from those IN
side. Finally order MAS restored, and
the prisoner renanded Ia iii until to-

How 10 Get mid Of Reggars.

There are more ways of killing dog
than choking him to death with butter,
and there are several ways of getting rid
of beggars, beside telling them to 90 to
Halifax. When an unfortunate mendi-
cant applies to Gilhooly for aid, that phil
osopher cheerfully responds:
"Oh, certainly. Have you got change
for dollar ~
In ninety nine cases out of hum

not

smaller. / am always happy to help the

In case the beggar says that he has
got change for dollar, Gilhooly bowls
out:
'Police! Police y and denounces the
Unfortunate man as an imposter for beg
ging when he has got his pocket full of
money, which he must have stolen from
somebody, whereupon the mendicant

An Elenhant,s Feet.

The feet of elephants kept for show
purposes are trimmed two or three times
year. The sole of an elephants foot
is heavily covered with a thick, horny
substance of material similar to the three
toe-nails on each foot; and as it grows
thicker and thicker it tends to contract
and crack, often tanning the animal.
One Snowman recently subjected his ele-
plant to the trimming process, With a
knife two feet long great pieces of horn,
six inches by four, and quarter of an
inch thick. were shaved off. During the
operation the huge creature appeared to
suffer great pain, but seemed to know
that it would afterward obtain relief, and
therefore bore it patiently and trumpeted
its pleasure at the close. Three times
around an elephants foot is said to be
his exact height.

Making a Queen.

Bees do not usually want more than
one queen. In fact, they will not have
more than one unless the swarm ha,
grown so large as to crowd the hive and
they are going to found a colony. or
Swarm, F" rs it is called; in which case
each family will need a sovereign. As
soon as it is clear to the wiseacres that II
will be necessary to send off swarm
the bees 90 TO work to make queen. A
worker maggot, or if there happens TO
be none in the hive, n worker egg is Sc.
lected near the edge of the comb. Two
cells next door to the one in which this
maggot is are cleared out, and the div.
ding walls are cut down, so chat three
kordinary cells are turned into one The
/ food which the worker worm has been
feeding on is removed, and the little
creature is supplied with new kind Of
food--a royal jelly. Change of food, a
larger room, and a different position
the queens cell hangs down instead Of
being horizontal-these three changes Of
treatment turn the bee that is developing
from worker into q queen. She is dir.
ferent in her outer shape, different in al.
most all her organs, and different in
every single instinct. There is nothing
else in all nature that seems to me more
wonderful than this.
For fear that one queen may not come
out all right the provident little crea,
lures usually start two or three queen.
cells at once. 1t is curious to watch the
first queen as she comes out. She moves
up and down the combs, looking for
other queen-cells, and if she finds one,
she falls upon it in the greatest excite.
ment, and stings her rival to death
Sometimes, by accident, two new queens
come out at the same time: then it is
wonderful to see the bees They clear a
space and bring the rival queens to.

A teacher in one of the smallest dis
