Rsrbarl.n Bee Communities.


The so called queen bee is really the
mother of the hive. Her functions are
maternal rather than regal. If she may
be said to reign in certain sense, the
workers rule, deciding all questions and
performing all acts affecting the COM
mon veal. Populous and powerful bee
communities sometimes relapse into
barbarism, renounce the life of peaceful
industry for which they have become
proverbial, acquire predatory habits and
roam about the country as freebooters,
plundering the smaller and weaker
hives and subsisting on the spoils.
These brigand bees seldom reform; If
they busily Improve each shining hour"
it is not to ''gather honey all the day
from every opening flower" but to
range the fields in looting parties and
ransack the homes of honest honey
makers. Against these marauders of
apian society and other foes the honey
bees often fortify their hives, barricad-
ing the entrance by thick wall, with
bastions, casemates and deep, narrow
gateways. When there seems to be no
immediate danger . hostile attack these
defensive works, which seriously inter-
fere with the ordinary industrial life Of
the hive, are removed and not rebuilt
until there is fresh occasion for alarm.

The Board OF Trade and citizens OF
Fargo, N. d., have undertaken tn raise
$50, 900 to supplement the State Worlds

pend $llO, ,000 in increasing and inn
proving their equipment and facilities
for transporting World Fair visitors

The Missouri Worlds Fair Commits,
sion has not done great deal of talking,

effect that it has been most diligently at
work all the time, and that the Missouri

there.

plants, and In the galleries of the pavil-
ion will be placed more than 5000 beau
tiiul birds, many of which have very

Travelling Jurfes.

The French government has created
certain number of travelling juries hav-
ing duties of a somewhat similar nature
as those of like functionaries established
under the first republic. In the organic
law of the institut it was ordained that
the institut was to select yearly ten citi-
zens to travel abroad and collect in
formation useful to science, commerce
and agriculture. These scientific travel
ers will not be appointed by the Acade-
my of Sciences or the whole institut, but
by a special administrative commission
on the basis of a competitive examine
ton. Letter.

NO. II.
How wltehe. Were Convicted.

One Of the theories Of the age was that
tho devil set his mark upon each of his
servants-that witches were all marked.
A jury Of the sex Of the accused was ap-
pointed to examine the body for such
marks. It often happened that some ex-
crescence of flesh common to old people,
or one explainable by natural causes, was
found. One such was found on the body
Of Goody Nurse and reported to the
court, all but one Of the jury agreeing to
the report. Rebecca Preston and Mary
Tarbell knew that the mark was from
natural causes. The prisoner stated to
the court that the dissenting woman Of
the jury ot examination was one of the
most ancient, skillful and prudent, and
further declared, IL there rendered
sufficient known reason of the moving
cause thereof" She asked for the ap-
pointment Of another jury to inquire
into the case and examine the marks
found on her person.
The jury of trials returned a verdict
of not guilty. Thereupon all the ac-
cusers in court "cried out" with renewed
vigor and were taken in the most vio-
lent fits, rolling and tumbling about,
creating scene of the widest confusion.
The judges told the jurymen that they
had not carefully considered one ex-
preston Of the prisoner, namely, that
when one Hobbs, confessing witch,
was brought in as evidence against her
she said: What, do you bring herr She
is one of u.s." The jury retired for fur
ther consultation. Even then they could
not agree upon verdict Of guilty.
They returned to the courtroom and de-
sired that the accused explain the re-
mark. She made no response, and the
jury returned verdict of guilty.-New
England Magazine.

Man and wife Live as Stranger.

Pleasanton, Mich, has queer case.
Fourteen years ago man bought a lot
of land and moved there from Canada.
Three years later a woman settled down
on lot near by, but did not seem to
know her neighbor, who, it appears, had
deserted her some years before. For
nine years husband and wife lived with
in gun shot of each other without ex-
changing a word. Last week the man
went to his wife's house, and in less than
half an hour the two went back to the
husbands residence and have been liv-
ing together since. They are 70 years
old, and seem to be happy over their
ciliation.-Philadelphia Times.

FROM WASHINGTON CITY.
Mr.. Sousa, Leader Of the Marine Band,
Resigns-Brooklyn viii Be the
Name Of New Cruiser.

For the Washington State building AT
the Worlds Fair the lum mbermen OF the
State have already donated ll3 600 feet
OF lumber and ia logs, measuring from
"a 10 III feet long and from II to AZ
inches In diameter at the small end. The
logs alone are valued at $4,000.
Conspicuous in the shoe and leather
exhibit at the Worlds Fair will be the
display made by Lynn, Mass. Lynn is
the largest producing center in the
United States, and fully seventy-fve and
perhaps 100 OF the shoe manu- acturers
o. that city will furnish exhibits. They
are acting in harmony in the matter.
Colonel Haywood, commanding the
marine corps, has accepted the resigna-
ton of SOusa, the leader OF the Marine
Band, with extreme regret. The Colonel
states that, knowing the inducements
that have been offered Sousa to leave,
the latter could hardly have acted other.
wise.
Secretary Tracy will give the name OF
Brooklyn 10 the new armored cruiser re-
Gently Authorized by Congress. The
vessel will be very similar to the New
York. The bureau OF construction is al
ready at work upon the plans for the
Brooklyn and the additional battle ship,
and 1t is expected that appropriations
will be made next winter for tLeir con-
struction.
Representative Hermann says that he
expects it will be some time before the
klamath Indian reservation will be
opened to settlement. The preliminary
steps are now being taken. The land
must first be surveyed, and then the In
dians are given six months to make their
selections OF allotments; and the land
will then be thrown open to settlement
under the homestead laws only. All but
the mountainous regions will be sur
veyed, and the unsurveyed portion will
be set apart for all the Indians. The
ceded lands il the Colville Indian reser
vation will not be opened until that por-
tion wanted by the Indians is surveyed
and their allotments made. The lands
will then be disposed OF under the land
laws of the United States. which means
under the homestead, mineral, desert
land and Pacific Coast tim ber land laws.
Any person who has ever perfected his
homestead right will not be entitled to
enter under the law; but, il it has never
been perfected, he may enter l6) acres
OF land and prove up after residing four
teen months upon the tract. The home
stead settler must pay $3.50 an acre Tor
the land, and must make it within FIVE
years of'the tine the entry was made
None OF the ceded lands will be disposed
OF at public auction. The Indians must
make their allotment selections from the
surveyed lands. 1t is the intention to
survey only the agricultural lands first.
Then the Presidents proclamation will
be issued, and the Indian selections must
be made within six months after the
proclamation has been issued, after
which the white men will have chance.
White men may select lands, but during
the first six months the Indian can re-
move him.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES.
PubIic-School Teachers Not Paid Fixed
Salary in Kentucky-Harvard'S
Largest Graduation.

The total gifts to Yale for 1912 have
been about 100000.
Chicago has forty married women
publc-school teachers.
Prof. John X. Lord has been elected
acting President of Dartmouth.
Four of the School Commissioners in
the State OF New York are women, and
10 are men.
Oxford University according to Mr.
Gladstone has good reason to reckon
Dante among its former students.
Kansas has school for every 1856 in
habitants. Sunday school for every 420
and only five criminals for every 10000.
Bequests for religious, educational and
charitable purposes under 120 of the
Wills reported in this country last year
amounted to about 81, 900, 900.
According to the census bulletin on
educational statistics there were IL, 592,.
72l pupils enrolled in the public schools
OF the country in 1890, as against 1851, :
60S In 1880.
In Kentucky the public-school teach
ers are not paid fixed salary, but re-
ceive so much for each pupil. This plan
has one good effect, that OF stimulating
teachers to secure scholars and thus ex-
tend the benefits OF education; but some
have been found making false returns.
North Carolina spent last year $7Sl, :
225. 40 on her schools, and OF this amount
$240, ,047.77 was spent for the colored
children. The av, r lge monthly salary
for males in the white schools was $3.50
and for females $22.95; in the colored
schools, for males, $22.72, and for fe-
males, $20.S6 per month.
Harvard's largest class graduated this
year at its two hundred and fiftieth COM
mencement. The gifts and bequests for
the year were more than 100000. The
first steps have this year been taken to-
ward the complete organization of the
university as a large body of strong,
well-organized secondary schools. The
completion Of the scheme requires ten
years.
BY the death of Mrs. Fayerweather
the whole OF the wealthy leather mer-
chants fortune will now be divided
among colleges and charitable institu.
tions. In all five hospitals and twenty
one colleges will finally reap the benefit
of this munifc9nce. 1t is not often that
in one man we meet both the ability and
the inclination to leave behind him so
strong and lasting an aid to the cause Of
hearty and education.
