DR.. SMART's LECTURE.

Large interest seems to be felt in the
coming of DR.. Smart of Brandon to Mid
-dtlebulry, the evening of May 30, to de-
liver his lecture on the Battle of Gettys-
burg. All the Grand Army men express
themselves as highly pleased with the
arrangement. We predict that the town
nall will be filled to overlooking. Some
IRON surrounding towns have already
declared their purpose to hear the lecture

Dunton of Rutland should have been

pated Dr. Smart by paying an especially
glowing tribute to the soldiers to 81.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE AND THE Pro-
HlBITORY LAW


The United States supreme court has
just rendered noteworthy decision, in
the case of Leisy & Co. VS.. Hardin, which
so far trenches upon the effect of the pro-
hibitory law of this State that brief re-
view of the adjudications of that court
cannot but be of general interest.
Section s, article |, of the constitution
of the United States provides that 'the
Congress shall have power. . to reg
ulate commerce with foreign nations and
among the several States and with the
Indian tribes 1t is this clause of the
constitution which has furnished the
theme for the controversy. The first
case which bears upon it is that of
Brown VS.. Maryland, II Wheaton, 40
0S27). Brown was indicted and con-
victed by the State court for having i'm
ported and sold one package of foreign
dry goods without having license to do
so. The law of Maryland which requr-
ed him to take out license before sale
was held to be in conflict with the article
of the constitution above quoted, and the
decision of the State court was reversed.
The principal point of the decision was,
that the goods in original unbroken
packages were part of the foreign COM
merce of the country, and so not subject
to interference by State laws.
Next came the so-called license cases
Thurlow VS.. Massachusetts, Fletcher
VS.. Rhode Island and Pierce VS.. New
Hampshire Howard, 504 OS46).
These were heard and decided at the
same time, but the principal interest at
taches to the New Hampshire case.
Pierce, New Hampshire merchant, was
indicted and convicted ~ New Hamp-
shire court for having sold in New
Hampshire without license barrel of
gin in the original cask, which he pur-
chased in Massachusetts. The law of
New Hampshire which prohibited him
from so selling without having first OBJ
tanned license from the selectmen was
held valid, and Pierce's conviction sus-
tained. Chief Justice fancy says: "For,
although the gin sold was an import
from another State, and Congress has
clearly the power to regulate such i'm
portations yet, as Congress has
made no regulation on the subject, the
traffic in the article may be lawfully reg
ulated by the State as soon as it is landed
in its territory"
The Iowa case-Bowman VS.. Chicago
d Northwestern Railway Co., l25 L. S.
was decided in 1887 Bowman of Iowa
and Bowman of Nebraska purchased 5000
barrels of beer in Chicago and applied to
the railroad company for transportation
of the purchase by it from Chicago to
their place of business in Iowa. The
defendant company refused to carry 1t.
Thereupon the Bowmans sued the rail
road company in the federal court of H.
linois for damage occasioned by its refu-
sal, as a common carrier, to ship the
goods. The railroad company urged IN
its defense that the law of Iowa forbade
its transporting Intoxicating liquors INTO
the State of Iowa unless the consgnor
had previously procured a certificate
from county auditor in Iowa that the

proyender. The baby bees in their grub
state are fed on different kind of food,
which also the workers have to gather.
This is formed out of the pollen, or fertil-
izing dust of flowers. Bees, as is we'll
known, perform an essential Office in the
Decentralization of plants quite unwit-
tingly on their parts, no doubt) by carrying
the pollen from one anther to the pistil in
another bloom. In this connection the Gu
rious fact is observed that bees do not visit
on one and the same journey different kinds
of flowers. They collect pollen from all va
rieties: but with whatever sort they begin,
to that sort do they keep till they have filled
the little baskets that they carry for the
purpose on their hind legs. Having flown
home and stored their loads in the cells a. :
propriated to it, they may commence again
on quite another kind of pollen bearing
for the flowers is obvious; but it is not 80
clear how the bee comes to be thus discrim-
mating.
Another substance collected by the bees
is called propolis. This is a kind of gum.
which they obtain from certain resinous
buds, or from the bark of such a tree as
the willow. They can extract it also from
varnish. 1t is an old superstition that the
bees in an apiary should be informed when
their master dies. as they will wish to visit
his coffin. Some of those rationalistic peo-
pie who cannot be satisfied until they have
reduced every relic of more poetic times to
a prosaic explanation have propounded q
theory that the bees are attracted to the
dead mans habitation to lick Of the var
nish. In the hive, propolis is used to
cement all crevices and to join all parti-
tions. It is brought into requisition, too,
when an enemy invades the hive; he is, il
possible. stung to death. and ii he be toe
heavy to rem I'VE, he is impermeably sealed
