A National Press Intelligence bureau.
Kew York Town Toplcsl

New York Town Topics.l
Two well-known and able journalists
have lately organized in this city n Ma
tional Press intelligence bureau, the
idea and purposes of which are so excel
lent that 1t would seem MS il il could
not fail of success. There is a similar
organization in London, but the ne in
question is the first 10 be started in this
country. Its managers, recognizing the
fact that public opinion is voiced
through the press, and that there arc
thousands Of persons in public life and
in the professions, to whom a knowledge
Of the public's idea of their actions,
work and measures is most valuable,
propose to furnish to any of these who
may become subscribers to the bureau,
all clippings from the newspapers of
America and Europe relating to them in
any way.
1t will be seen at once how manifestly
impossible it wonld be for any one per
son to obtain more than q small number
of these newspaper comments, and how
a bureau of this sort, provided with the
files of all newspapers and fully equipped
with a body Of careful clerks, etc. could
supply them. II will be Of advantage
also to the newspapers, and bring their
opinions and comments Of men and
measures oftentimes to the knowledge
OF those persons affected by them The
managers purpose also the establish
ment of a reading room in a convenient
locality for the use of subscribers, and
many other advantages. They have
already received subscriptions and let
tiers OF endorsement from many promi-
nent public and professional men.

It may not be generally known to
those who have been stung by the com
mon black koney-bee or the still more
dangerous improved Italian bee, that
in the state of Yucatan and some other
OF the Central American states there is
a honey gathering bee that has no sting,
and that such bees will secure for their
owner as large an amount OF honey as
do the singing bees. The following ex-
tract from Mrs. Chester =. Walker, the
daughter of DR.. Henry Perrine, who
was murdered by the Indians in 1910 on
Indian Key, will give some important
knowledge of these wonderful bees, that
may be cultivated in Florida. She says;
About the year 1895, ! think, my
father sent to Key West and Indian Key
some hives OF stingless bees. Three
were sent to Indian Key, and when we
were there in 1889 and 1910 one hive
still remained. The other two in swarm
ing had steered Tor the mainland and
were lost. Those at Key West had also
disappeared. Their hives were simply
hollow logs. Their cells were entirely
unlike the common bees, being IN octa-
gon about half as large as an ordinary
marble and holding about a t~easpoonful
of pure. clear honey. This Is as | re-
member them. At II time When n nag
of truce was flying, the Indians reported
TO the officers at Fort Dallar that they
had found a new beo that did not sting.
II is possible that some of our pioneers
must have found trees Of such honey
and yet been afraid to make use Of
them from the entirely different appear
anee of the comb and honey. They are
worth seeking for, and if found will but
add another TO the strange and wonder
ful list of Florida productions.
Father sent at the same time of
sending these to Florida a hive to old
Peaie's museum in New York. Peale
kept them a long time, feeding them on
sweetened water and amusing himself
with the CONSERVATION Of his visitors at
finding bees flying around the museum.
These succumbed to the cold.
II any Of these bees yet remain in
Florida, as another monument to that
ilustrious man who did and sacrificed
so much for the good Of Florida, they
should be carefully cultivated and in
creased in numbers. If not, others
should be introduced from their original
habitat.

The New DIscorerles.

The result of recent examinations of the
new discoveries in the Silver Crown min
ing district is most encouraging. Yester-
day Mr.. J. NJ. Tompkins, Prof. Aughey,
Mr.. G. Il. Poland and the writer made a
thorough test with the mine indicator of
the entire carbonate belt between the two
forks of Grow creek. The ore bodies are
found to be very extensive, in some places
from fifteen t. thirty feet in width. Prof.
Aughey says these mineral deposits CON
tam principally silver and lead, and in
addition uranium, palladium and s~ellanite
OF lead the latter three being some of the
rarest minerals, which have also recently
been found in New Mexico. The value
and quantity of these rare minerals found
in the new discoveries cannot, of course,
be determined until the ores are tested for
that purpose in some extensive eastern or
foreign refinery.
1t was found that these large ore bodies
are easily worked with pick and shovel,
the product will therefore lie great, so
soon as the miners are prepared to get
out the ore for shipment. From the most
careful examination of these newly dis
covered deposits, the writer is convinced
that the Silver Crown district is entering
upon an era of great prosperity, thus be
coming an important factor in the growth
and advancement Of Cheyenne.

CATTLEMEN.
The Wyoming Stock Growers AS
ISOLATION in Council.
Discussion of the Maverick Law
and Other Matters.

Inc stock Growers Association met IN
Library hall yesterday morning.
The meeting was called to order by the
president, Judge Carey. The secretary
stated the object of the meeting was to
hear the report of the committee appoint
ed to draft amendments to the maverick
law and to appoint delegates to the Chi
cago convention, to be held on the 18th
and 18th of November, and to petition the
Legislature to establish an equal valuation
on all cattle in the territory.
The entire day was consumed in the
discussion of amendments proposed to be
submitted to the next legislature for its
consideration.
There was great unanimity of feeling in
relation to needed legislation for the better
protection OF all stock dealers, and espe-
cially were the interests of small owners
discussed.
The legislature is to be asked to
amend the Maverick law" so as to re-
quire a daily sale of mavericks upon the
occasion of round ups instead of every ten
days as is now specified.
There has been a cloud upon the time
that mavericks may be branded. 1t is
proposed to make clear the point that no
maverick shall be branded except at the
time of stated round ups.
When a maverick is sold by the asso-
citation and its ownership afterward proven
the party being so deprived of his prop
erty shall be paid the actual market value
of the animal instead OF the price obtained
at the sale.
Colves shall actually be branded with an
iron, and no ear mark or waffle shall be
sufficient to prove the ownership of the
same.
A letter was read from Agent Arm
strong, of the Crow reservation, in relation
to the recent d%epredations and the arrest
of the Indians implicated. The agent
stated that he had, as a punishment, not
issued the usual amount of meat.

For some weeks Mr.. Alf Bennett, of
Kansas City, Mo, has been lying very i'll
at the Inter Ocean hotel in this city, the
object of great solicitude on the part of
his friends, being sorely afflicted with
chronic dysentery. 1t was thought during
last week that he would recover, but on
Saturday he took a sudden turn for the
worse and died yesterday morning. Mr..
Bennett came to this city as a special
agent of the Phoenix Insurance company
and exhibited much energy in the prosecu-
ton of his work, until he became so i'll that
he was obliged to place himself under
medical care. A week ago his sister,
Mrs. j. NJ. Wilson, arrived here, accom-
panied by her husband, and in Mr.. Ben
nett's last hours ne was surrounded by
loving relatives. His wife died a year
ago, but he leaves two little children, a
boy of 3 and a girl of -, to mourn the
loss of a kind and c~onsiderate father. The
remains will be taken East to-day for in
terment at Kansas City, Mo, Deceased

sentavc of the order in Missouri. The

On Sunday night officer Bean caught a
man in the act of stealing coal from a car
on the railway track. The man dropped
his black diamonds aud rn and Bean fol
lowed him home. He lived in a house of
one room, and Bean overheard the man
tell his wife if any one came to say he
wasn't at home, and he would go out the
other door. Bean pushed his way in and
sure enough the man was gone. The
next morning about daylight Bean went
to the house, and took a rope, which he
tied TO the front door mob and then to a
post, and walking around to the back
door asked the woman if her husband
was in. She said he was not, and that
he had been AWAY all night. Strange
said Bean, II thought | heard him talk
ing TO you.' Then pushing into the
o he found the man pulling at the
front door trying to get out. Can't you
get it open?' queried Bean. NO."
said the man Somebody pulling on the
other side Bean then arrested him
and took him up to the superintendent
office, and that gentleman let him of on
a promise that he wouldn't do so any
more.

The following circular is from the Office
of the assistant secretary Of the National
Cattle Growers association:
Tho National Cattle Growers a~ssocia-
ton Of America has called a delegate con-
yention of representative stockmen in the
United States to meet in Chicago on Nov.
II and Is, for the purpose Of considering
matters of great Importance to cattlemen
and others which have arisen in this coun-
try within the past year, and to discuss
other subjects relating to live stock inter
ests. Notice has already been received OF
the appointment OF delegates to represent
every state and territory in the union, and
representatives will be present from
numerous state boards of agriculture, live
stock associations, agricultural societies
and periodicals published in the interest
of cattle owners and agriculture, so hat a
large attendance is assured, although it is
aimed to avoid making a mass meeting of
the convention, it being believed that a
comparatively small number of men Of
influence and intellect can accomplish far
more in behalf of stockmcn than a larger
collection of persons of Indifferent ability.
Special arrangements have been made
with the various railroad companies for
reduced rates to delegates aud representa-
tiyes, and the leading hotels of Chicago
mill ole, ,nolo uua,,,I t,ru.e
The annual fat stock show is to be held
in the exposition building during the
meeting of the convention, and the llli-
nois state board of agriculture will furnish
complimentary tickets TO delegates admit
ting them to the exhibit. The second
official meeting of the National Cattle
Growers association is to be held on Nov.
10, the association having been organized
in November Of last year. But few per-
sons outside Of the organization have any
proper idea Of the amount and Importance
Of the work already accomplished. The
enactment of the law creating the bureau
Of animal industry, and affording almost
the only useful recognition the general
government has ever given to the live
stock interests Of this country, was Sc
cured by the efforts Of the association,
despite the strong opposition of those
whose chief, if not only, interest in the
cattle business lay in the profits to be de-
rived from buying or selling in the great
| cattle markets.

Not quite.

Yesterday morning Sheriff Craig dis
covered that his pets in the county jail
had been making big preparations to
break for liberty and things. They had
cut a square piece out of the iron sheeting
big enough to let a mans body through
and had effected an entrance to a sewer
below the building, through which all
would have been enabled to escape.
S~chaffenberg, the forger, who has been
pretending to be insane, was at the head
of the job, which exhibits the fact that
his insanity is very methodical The
parties to the work were locked up in cells
and workmen were set to work repairing
the damage. The cutting Of the iron
plate was done with a saw made from a
boot spring. There was a narrow escape
from a genuine jail delivery.
