Fine Bedstead.

A bed was made in Paris for an Indian
prince, who paid thousands Of pounds for
It. 1t was constructed partly of silver,
with large female figures at each corner,
each holding delicate looking fan. The
weight of the sleeper's body sets certain
machinery in motion which causes the fig
ures to keep the fans gently moving-an
ingenious luxury in a hot climate. By
touching spring large music box is
made to give forth soft music as q further
incentive to slumber.
Another bedstead made of silver is said
to have been occupied by the German EN-
peror during his visit to the sultan. 1t
had oriental curtains Of surprising rich
ness, heavily embroidered with gold.
What contrast this presents to the sim
pie iron camp beds affected by Prince Bis
marck, Moltke and other renowned leadersl

Brains wanted. Not Words.

One of the first things would ask of a
young writer would be, .'Do you under
stand the stage; its mechanism, It's possi-
bilities, it's restriotionsP" II not, go and
study them practically. "Do you under
stand an audience, it's powers of concep-
tion, its capability to grasp your meanings,
its possible acceptance of your yieBs?" II
not, go to the thsater and watch the audi
ence, not the play. And last, but by no
means least: ado you understand your
selfi Do you know your failingsP Can
you form sentence to be spoken, not
readr"
! haze read and witnessed plays that,
taking aSdowery and effective speech to
pieces and analyzing it, developed no sense
whateyer-wese utterly devoid Of all intel
ligence and yet sounded well. 1t is just
such work that ruins play.

"Brains are what we want. Furnish me
plot, and will find hundred persons to

on newspaper can furnish the latter. but

One Writer'S Method.

An author who would be known to
good many readers if he were to be named
told the writer few days ago that he suf-
fered from the criticism Of the editor as
badly as anybody until recently, when he
hit on new idea Said he: 81 used to
waste time and postage by sending my
stuff around haphazard, and the result
was that got nearly all of it back. Now
I've got different plan. go to the editor
of Snarler's and tell him that I have a
theme for story or an article to make,
say, 10000 words, and give him a hint of
whatit will be like. If he doesn't want it I
try some other editor, but If he does I-go
home and write it? Not Bit pull over
my pile Of the rejected, send it to him and
get check for 500. You see, Pve got
little reputation now" New York Re

A Sensational Trial for Alleged Extor-
tlon Ended.
PERRIs, Feb. 13.--On Saturday last
ended one of the most sensational JUS
tice court trials that has ever been
brought before the courts of this town
ship. About three weeks SINCE A. L.
Brock. q carpenter who has been living
in this vicinity for several years past,
demanded of DR.. W. f. Perry, a promi-
nent physician and president of the
board of directors Ct the irrigation dis
trict, $500 for alternating the affections OF
his (Brock's) wife, and charging him
with her seduction. This Perry denied,
and refused the demand. After consult
ing with his lawyer and number OF
friends the doctor decided to invoke the
aid OF the law, and Brooks arrest on g
charge of unsuccessful extortion fol-
lowed.
On Thursday last the case was called
in Justice Ovens court, and ended Sat-
urday by the jury finding Brock guilty.
The evidence throughout was racy and
in some instances quite dramatic. Brock
attempted to palliate his offense by en-
deavoripg to prove that, knowing Of his
wife's infdelity. she having confessed to
him that DR.. Perry had had illicit inter
course with her on six different occa-
sions, he did not approach the dor'r' Ior

A NoNswARMlNe DEVICE.
The Langdon System of Controlling the
Natural Swerming of Bees.


All beekeepers understand the advan-
tages in being able to suppress ct will
and without detriment to the colony the
desire Of bees to swarm. Most Of the
systems of preventing or limiting natu-
raj swarming have depended upon the
formation of limited number of artiti-
cial swarlns, frequent destruction of
queen cells by the beekeeper, close use
of the honey extractor, the combining of
after swarms, changing places for hives,
replacing of all queens annually, supply
ing empty space for comb building be-
low the brood nest or between the brood
nest and flight hole, or there has been
some combination of these methods.
In the last bulletin from the division
of entomology, United States depart
ment of agriculture, space is given to a
detailed account of the Langdon non
swarmer, depicted in the cut, and for
which are claimed the merits of effective
ness and simplicity. AT the beginning
of the season the nonswarming device
d, shown in the cut, is placed at the en-
frances of two contiguous hives, each OF
which contains queen and full colony
OF bees. The passages Q on the UNI
der side Of the device correspond to the
entrances of the hives \ and B respec.
lively, The bees will then pass undis.
turbed out of and into their respective
hives through these passageways. By
inserting the slide 81 in the end of thu
nonswarmer until it occupies the posi-
ton indicated by the dotted horizontal
lines the passage leading to hive A vii
be closed at its juncture with the hiv,
entrance, preventing any bees from en-
tering said hive. The wire cone exit Q,
still permits flight bees to come out o.
hive A, as hole through the nonswarm
er connects the cone exit with CORE
spending hole in the front of the hive
The super cases s Of hive A are thel
placed on those of hive b.
The flight bees of hive A, finding thei
hive entrance closed on their return, ar
upon alighting at the entrance at
tracted by the buzzinS of the bees at tn
entrance OF hive and enter said hive
This withdrawal of the field bees from
hive A leaves this hive so depopulatet
and so disconcerts tho nurse bees lief
therein that they will not swarm. Mean
