colony of bees some time ago settled
in the boxing of the porch of a residence in
the southern part of the city. The presence
of the buzzing insects caused the inhabi-
tants Of the domicile considerable annoy
ance, but it was thought best not to disturb
them until they had accumulated a store of
honey; so they were left unmelested until
few days ago, when it became evident the
little honey-gatherers had about filled their
quarters with the sweets of flowers
But how to get at their nectar store /;
that was the question. There was none
In the household SO rash as to assail the

Finally, Mr.. l.. X Paxton. one Of
County Recorder Francis able depu-
ties. volunteered to accomplish the rob-
berry for share of the booty. Mufling
up his head and placing wire screen over
his face, and buckskin gauntlets on his
hands, at it he went. he thrust his arm
boldly into the hole among the buzzing,
seething mass of bees and proceeded to
tear out the combs of delicious honey. But
instantly he felt shock as il from an
electric battery A thousand red-hot
needles seemed TO penetrate his hand. The
eGckskin gauntlets proved to be not bee
proof Their poisoned spears were thrust
again and again through the glove, but
fortunately they could not sting deep into
his hand. With nerve that 10 besot of
determination to win, Mr.. Paxton bore the
pain and completed his task. The honey
was secured and the bees extermnated
When his gloves were taken off, twenty
three singers were removed therefroln.
How many more stings were received Is not
known, but 1t was several days before his
hand was reduced to its normal prOpor-
tons. THIS is believed to be the most con-
seeutive case Of bee stings without serious

Chinese Mine-Jumper's Death at Mich
fgan Bar.
Sheriff McMullen, Assistant District At
tOrney Bruner, Court Reporter Davis and
Deputy Coroner Clark returned from Mich
igan Bar about o'clock this morning. where
they went to inquire into the death of a
Chinaman who died on Saturday from the
effects Of a gunshot wound. An inquest
was held, at which it was developed that
the shooting was done by an old man named
James Jordan, who owns a gravel mining
claim short distance from Michigan Bar
Jordan has lived at Michigan Bar for over
thirty years, and had the reputation of being
a peaceable and Industrious man. Several
weeks age horse he was riding fell, throw
ing him to the ground and breaking one of
his ribs. He twas not able to be about, and
Cinnamon, it is said, took advantage of the
occasion and robbed the old mans mine.
On Friday last a Celestial went to
Jordan's cabin and told him that a
Chinaman was as that time working in
his claim. Jordan took a shotgun, loaded
1t with No. shot, aqd h0bbled up to his
mining possessions. There, sure enough,
was Monaghan busily engaged in secur-
ing dirt which the aged miner had labOri-
ously gathered from the bedrock. Jordan
called to the trespasser to cease operations,
and the ChinamaD, so Jordan swore,

A number of the best citizens of Michigan
Bar testified to Jordan's good character for
peace and quiet, and the jury rendered a
verdict of justifiabe homicide.
The verdict it is believed, will have a

CLARKE'S SENTENCE.

The Death Penalty Pronounced on Him
for Murder.
Charles E. Clarke. recently convicted of
the murder of Captain Duncan Logan, was
taken before Judge Murphy yesterday
morning to receive the death sentence.
When asked for reasons why sentence
should not be passed, Clarke said that he
had been convicted on the false and per
Jured testimony of his companion Oscanvon.
and then endeavored to make it appear that
1t was case of mistaken identity. He
charged Captain Lees and other officers
with having tried to induce him to confess
the crime, promising him immunity from
the death penalty for so doing
Judge Murphy, in passing sentence, le-
viewed the circumstances of the crime, and
stated that there could be no doubt as to
the identity of the prisoner. The Court
said it was satisfied that Clarke went to the
saloon of Jean Labot to commit robbery
and to commit murder il necessary, and
did Kill law-abiding citizen.
The prisoner was urged to lay aside all
hope OF escape, as the Court was satisfied
the Supreme Court would not reverse the
Judgment Clarke was then sentenced to
be hanged. The time of the execution will

BLOOD WILL TELL.

There are "blue blooded" people, and
"White blooded" people and Red blood
ed" people; but there are more bad
blooded people than all the rest put to-
gether. Sometimes their blood Is simply
impure. In that case there is no better
remedy than Pe-ru-na. But sometimes
their blood is diseased, and horrible in
deed some of these Blood Diseases are.
There is Chronic Catarrh, for instance,
and Scrofula, and Chronic Rheumatism,
Chronic Ulcers, and even more horrible
diseases. These are terrible dieeases,
and especially SO when they break out
at this season of the year, when the body
is relaxing under the enervating heat,
and yet has not adapted itself to debili-
tating summer conditions. Happily,
suffering manhood is not without rem

THERE has been more study of the
geography of this section of the state by
the people of this city within the last
week than for any year preceding. The
anxiety lest it be lost, and Manitowoc
evidently believes it has a jewel in its
railroad connections which awakens tn e
cupidity of neighboring cities. In this
it is correct. Kewaunee is particularly
anxious to rob Manitowoc of "that which
would benefit it not and leave us
poor indeed" That ravine city builds its
hopes on the fact that thee B. & Winona
a part of the through route-has its east
ern terminus at Green Bay and that Ke-
waunee lies directly east on the lake shore.
The construction of a line from Green
Bay to Kewaunee would fill up the gap
and render unnecessary the use of the
Mil. l.. S. Il W. line from New London to
this city. The recommended appropria-
ton of $4,000 for the Kewaunee harbor
has still further inspired the hope that
the G.. b. & W. will turn a favorable eve
towards Kewaunee, and that city is in a
fever of excitement. There is nothing
talked of there but the imaginary rail-
road. An engineer corps with authority
similar to that which operated for the
Midland ran line last week from Green
Bay to Kewaunee and the people OF the
latter place accepted them as the harbln-
ger of the locomotive
The Evening Wisconsin was imposed
upon by prominent official OF the
Delaware Il Lackawanna. One of its
staff wrote up au article and put it in the
habiliments of Manitowoc communica-
ton. 1t was announced that the Kewau-
nee chimera was certainty and that
Manitowoc would soon lose what it priz-
ed so highly.
1t may be just as well to admit that if
the Kewaunee harbor was improved and
was accessible at all seasons it would be
formidable rival Of this city as a point
OF transhipment on through line. But
it will take years before that harbor will
be in a condition to meet the demands
of a live railway dong large volume of
business. There is no railway corpora
ton which will give up a certainty for a
possibility.

The body of Andrew Spar, the man
drowned in the river from the railroad
bridge on April It'll, was found on Friday
last. The body was floating when dis
covered. 1t had evidently caught on
some obstruction near the river bank as
the face showed signs of having been ex-
posed to the sun and air. A coroner's
jury was empapeled and the verdict CEN
sures the railroad company for permitting
trains to stop on the bridge without CIV
ing passengers notice that the depot has
not been reached.
The body was inferred at this place as
decomposition had SO far advanced as
to make difficult the forwarding it
to friends.
