DeInoraIfzins Inc Busy Bee,

As the magpie is notorious for stealing
glittering objects, so we find the parallel
among savages who have been known to
help themselves on shipboard to all the
movables, being fascinated by mirrors,
cutlery and jewelry. Sometimes bees,
in order to save trouble, attack in
crowds well furnished hives and carry
off the provisions; they gradually &C
quire q taste for this and form compa-
MES and colonies of brigands. If bees
are given a mixture of honey and brandy,
they can acquire taste for it and be-
come irritable under its influence, drink
and cease to work, and like men fall
from one vice into another Current

As ii Used to he Here

Rock Island people who were in
Moline yesterday morning were
given an exhibition of the by-gone
DAYS OF the volunteer department in
Rock Island. and they could but con-
tent them selves in considering the
advantages that we are enjoying
here in a modern. wide-awake de-
partment always on duty. From Il
spark from switch engine the roof
OF the warehouse of the Moline Pillow
company caught fire. and not n
block away two boys were furiously
ringing the bell on a hose house.
while waiting for some of the fire
men with keys to arrive and open the
door to get the apparatus out; but
the fire was not waiting worth
cent. but the pillow company hose
finally subdued it before the volun-
teers arrived. The Republican,
Journal relates this further incident
of the turning out of the volunteers:
In going to the fire the team of
Nels Nelson. which was hauling the
EDWARDS hose cart, while attempt
ing to make the turn UP Fifteeth
street. slipped on the pavement and
fell, sliding about wagon length on
their noses and sides. 1t was some
time before they could be helped up,
but it is thought their injuries are
not serious.

He Was at Kewanee Yesterday and Wrote
aLetter to Rock Island.
Deputy Collector Harry Bostock,
who left Rock Island in such mys-
terious manner Monday evening, was
heard ON this morning through
the medium of a letter to Dep
uty Collector w. S. Knowlton, the
letter having been dated AT Ke-
vance yesterday afternoon, and in
which the writer states that infor-
nation had reached there that HUI
ber's brewery was on fire-a rumor
growing out of the little blaze at the
brewery yesterday morning I'M
doubleday - and advising Mr..
Knowlton to take possession
and saying that he (Bostock),
had written Collector Starr at Peo-
ria, That is all that has been heard
directly of Mr.. Bostock, although it
has been learned since yesterday
that he went to Galva over the
r. l. x p. Monday afternoon, and pri-
or to his departure purchased n
ticket at McHugh's ticket office.
At 3 O'Clock this afternoon Mr.
Bostock's family had heard nothing
from him. but felt confident that as
soon as he learned of the mystery
surrounding his departure he would
write or return. Most of his friends
here concur in that view.
Collector Starr Notified.

Illus S. Starr. of the Fifth revenue dis
trict at Peoria, was notified by tele-
graph by Mr.. Bostock's bondsmen
yesterday afternoon of the mysteri-
Gus disappearance OF Mr.. Bostock,
and the collector was requested to
send an inspector to Rock Isl

has put an appearance. which would
Indicate that Collector Starr has

ably received the letter to which
Mr.. Bostock refers in his letter to
Mr.. Knowlton.
