for honey; he secures his supply. and
with the same line he returns and n

and OF he is again. This goes on from
day 10 day until a supply sufficient TO
take from the hive Is secured; il is

Then when it is wanted in the comb

cover them; when Tiled they are put

There is nothing more interesting
than TO stand among the hives ami

smoke in, a great buzz WAS heard.

BLAINE IN MAINE.-In the six elections
from 1856 to 1876 the average republican
majority in Maine was II ,O23, and their av-
crage percentage OF this total vote cast was
Sill. State pride counts for something
everywhere. and nowhere else is il as po-
tent factor as in a small New England
State. Mr.. Blaine is precisely the sort of
man who will he likely to get the votes Of
the people who have seen lust enough of
him 10 feel the charm of his manner, and
not sufficient to thoroughly understand and
estimate his mental and moral make up.
Maine, too, is one Of those communities in
which very considerable proportion of
the voters are said TO be susceptible to the
influence Of money. That under conditions
such "a these the encgetic and expensive
republican canvass has not secured an av-
erage majority proves that The dry-Iot OF
disaliection has even in Maine eaten deeply
into the party strength. Coupled with the
result of the poll in Vermont, it shows that
where the local conditions exceptionally Ia

to bring out the full republican vote in his
support, even where, as was the case in
both the States named, the democracy hard

BLAISE's DISAPPOINTMENT AT HoME.-The
New York Stauts Zcitung observes: Tie result of
Mondays election in Maine proves 20 be less
favorable to Blaine than was expected by the
Siaats-Zeittng The party well rs Blaine per-
sonally had done everything to obtain bigger
majority than ever received. Money Was pro.
fusclr and Unfortunately spent. The letter to
Mr.. Henry Hodge from his brother John as pub
;shed in the STIR, speaks for itself. On The other
side the democratic national committee purpose
- did nothing to counteract the corrupt Blaine
dealings The committee did not send one dollar
Nop one speaker to assist the poor and insufficient
democratic o. ganzntion of that State. The dem
ocrats had to fight ont that battle by themselves.
Under these circumstances the republican ma.
;ority in Maine ought To be mhont 21.oOJ. The

suit which will cost Mr.. Blaine many Western
vote If Mr. Blaine and his organs he satisfied
with the result of the Maine election, they must
have since the Chicago convention, enormously

tirely satisfied with the State of Maine.

WAR IN a NEWSPAPER OFFICE.-A war
is raging 10 the Office Of the Detroit Evening
Journal A few weeks ago G. NJ Hubbard,
the general managing editor, was dis
charged by Doyd Breeze, the editor-in-
chief. Hubbard claimed to be held by his
contract until January, and refused to
consider himself discharged. Having Sc
cured a majority of the stock of the paper,
he on Monday, accompanied by his friends,
entered the office and declared the posi-.
tions of the directors vacant aud elected
himself aud friends to their places Breeze
gathered the Office employees together and
threw the inttuders out, but later they
were admitted as stockholders. Monday
night both factions were holding the fort
aud claiming the victory. Hubbard had
sworn out an injunction claiming to be
in possession of the office; that Breeze was
interfering. Yesterday the Journal came
out under the Breeze management and re-
cites the history Of the case. 1t claims that
Hubbard peijured himself, ard states that
he has never been in possession of the of:
fee. Mr.. Breeze refused to recognize the
Injunction of the court, and yesteday after
noon writ OF contempt CT court was sworn
out against him. The sheriff went to the
Office to serve the warrant, but was unable
to gain admittance, the door being locked.

ENGLISH MANNERS AT TABLE.-No guest
ever passes plate or serves anything; the
servant does all that. Soup is taken from
the side of the spoon, noiselessy. Soup and
fish are not purtaken of the second time; if
there is joint, and the host carves, it is
passed by the servant, and must be brok en-,
never cut. 1t is considered gauche to be
undecided whether one will take clear soup
or thick soup; decide quickly. In refusing
wine simply say, Thanks" or better,
Thank you" The servants retire after
handing the DESSERT when the party at once
launches in politics and gossip, with now
and then mot often, alas J bit of gay bad
image, or ''chan,,': until the lady of the house
gives the signal, and the ladies retire to the
drawingroom. Toast and taking wine with
people have gone out of fashion, and the
