An Honor for Crofut

WASHINGTON. April q MIR. William
A. Crofut, well known lterateur of
this city, was advised by president
Palmer of the worlds fair commission
that he had been designated to read a
poem at the dedicatory services of the
worlds fair. The poem-an allegory
Of about 1000 words-purports to be a
conversation between Columbus and
Martin Pinzon, who commanded the
Pinta on the deck of the SAINT Maria,
Columbus vessel, in which the two dis
cusses the nature of the land which. if
successful they should discover to the
westward. The poem is said to be a
very finished production.

The city council at their last meeting
inaugurated a system of sanitation that.
ifperhaps heroic, is one of the wisest
measurers ever attempted by that body
of men. The stencil of outhouses in the
summer time has been a nuisance for
many years, and one of the most pro-
life causes of disease. Typhoid fever,
diptheria, two of the severest diseases
known to mankind, are nearly always
traceable to polluted air and water,
caused by carelessness on the part of
citizens. Scarlet fever, small pox and
allied contagious diseases are better and
more thoroughly perpetuated when
garbage and decaying vegetation are
thrown anywhere, and when open water
closets are allowed to exist in thickly
populated portions of the town. In
stances are plentiful where otherwise
admirable citizens have been Indifferent
to laws they knew existed and occasion
al specific orders, asking them to con-
meet their privies with the sewers, which
would have been but trifling expense.
Such people, and all others who are now
directly to be asked to remedy these de-
fects will do so uncomplainingly, since
they are aware, as well as others, that
their course has not been one for the
best interests of the general welfare.

FALSE REPORTS.

Rev. Whistler, who claims the Ohio
Wesleyan university as his alma mater,
has been shocked at the late sensational
reports concerning the hazing of girl
students, and leaves the following state
ment from the faculty, as published in
the Christian Advocate, which contra
diets the Associated Press reports:
The report that the young ladies have
engaged in hazing is not true. There
has never been a single case of hazing
among the girls of the college. One
evening some girls foolishly marked
schoolmates with burnt cork and chalk.
One of the girls had two per cent solu-
tion of nitrate of silver, which had been
procured at drug store. She tested it
on her own arm and found that it left a
slight stain, but was perfectly harmless.
Four of the girls were slightly marked
in the palms of the hands and on their
wrists with this solution. This, how
ever, was not done against the will of
anyone. Two of the girls washed off the
solution that night, and it did not leave
the slightest mark. The other two left
the solution on over night, and were un-
able to wash it off the next morning be-
fore breakfast. On their way to the col
lege grounds to recIte they stopped at
drug store ana asked the druggist TO
remove the nitrate, which he did with
out any pain and without leaving any
mark. No young woman at this college
has ever received any bodily injury
from another student; nor has any
young woman in connection with this
matter been guilty of conduct toward
another student which the parents of
either party would disapprove.
The action of these students has in
fiicted disgrace upon the university,
upon themselves, and been a cause of
great modification to their relatives.
They are deserving of little sympathy.
We have perennial sympathy with
youthful energy, activity and high
spirits. Nor do we oppose practical
jokes if they regard the rights of prop
erty, person, and reputation, and do not
infract decency. Ingenious and ingen-
uous minds will have no trouble in in
venting practical jokes within the
limits of morality and refinement.

BEES IN HER BEDROOM.
A staten Island Girl Who Finds the In
sects Quiet Companions.

A Staten Island Girl Who Finds the 1n-
sects Quiet Companions.
There is "a girl in Staten Island who
has kept hive of bees in her bedroom
during the winter. She said recently,
according to the New York Sun, that
they were the NEST unobjectionable of
companions They are quiet, orderly
and attend strictlysto their own affairs.
When the warm weather comes they
viii be sent out doors, where there are
beds of mignonette and other sweet
scented flowers, which the bees fully
understand are planted for their special
use. This hive of bees is the nucleus of
her contemplated bee farm. Last sum
mer they supplied her weekly with
thirty-six pounds of honey. For each
pound of honey she received thirty
cents. The profits of bee-keeping are
great, the cost small. The labor of
houey-raising has been materially
lessened for the bees by modern inn
provements, and they seem proportion
ately grateful. The bees no longer
make their own cells, which are pro-
duced by machinery out of wax These
artificial cells are placed in the hive and
the bees seem to be glad to get rid of
the labor of making them. Immediate
ly they get to honey making. This
business they conduct alone. When the
cells are full the hive must be watched
from without, lest the bees begin seal
ing them up, which they do in order to
lay up their winters food. To guard
against this, additional cells are put on
top of the hive, called supers. In these
the bees deposit their extra store, and
this is reserved for their winter outfit.
When the bees begin to seal the cells
the box is removed, a small machine is
put inside which is set vibrating, and
this empties the cells of their honey.
which is drawn off, and the cells, hav-
ing been drained, are put back to be re-
filed. This young woman says that
her bees know her, and are as tame to
her hand as doves. The occupation of
honey making has proved pleasurable
and profitable.

In old st. Stephens, famous in song

fifty miles in straight line from the
shores of the Atlantic, is great landed
estate whose broad acres, level river
bottom and rolling highland, culti-
waited fields, tangled swamp. stately
pine grove, groups of live oak, with here
and there bit of virgin forest, form a
domain fit for prince. On it, according
to the Charleston News and Courier,
have lived and died long succession of
Carolina planters, all princes in their
day, to whom. while slavery lasted,
snowy fields of cotton and waving crops
of Indian corn and smaller grain fur
nished a princely revenue. And the
cattle, if not of thousand hills, of a
thousand canebrakes, was theirs, and
droves of wild hogs, that throve in the
thickets of the swamps, and blooded
horses were their pride.
All that is gone by now. The lordly
life of the planter has passed away for
ever; slavery has been abolished and

struggle with demoralized freedmen,

vegetables and of horse, cattle and hog

HELD FULL HANDS.
Two Young Ladies Have an Ex-
citing Time With a Bull.

Two young ladies of Sylyania recent
ly had a novel experience while en-
deavoring to drive arefractory calf out of
the yard, says the Atlanta Constitution.
Near the same yard there was an
angry bull, but the young ladies didn't
know that he was angry until they had
started to drive the calf out.
When the girls discovered that he
was really mad they we've on top of the
yard fence, about thirty feet distant
from each other, and both yelling + or
help. The bull seemed to take in the
situation-actually to catch on to the
racket-fOr he commenced paving the
earth in mischievous kind of way,
and then he would run around in a
playful manner near where they sat
astrlde the fence.
Things went on thus for about ten
minutes, when it began to grow verytire-
some standing up on the top plank and
holding on with both hands. The calf
had its back turned, ami one of the girls
said she thought she could make it to
the steps before the young animal would
see her. She slid gently down and then
made break for the house, but for
some unknown reason at the same in
slant the bull turned himself about and
started on full run for the same
point.
She saw him coming and her heart
sank. She knew she could not make
the house. and she saw she could not
get back to the fence before the devour-
ing beast would run upon her. Not
knowing which horn of the dilemma to
take she resolved, with supernatural
courage born of the moment, to grasp
them both. And so she ran toward him
as lie came, and before he had time to
retreat she had caught him with an iron
grasp by both his horns and was yelling
for her companion to run and grab him
by the tail.
