HONEY LOVING BIRDS.
They Sometimes Have Battles with Bees
For the Sweet Boot.


The love for sweet things is craving
of nature in all living creatures, and
birds will sometimes run great risks to
satisfy it. Bears in their eagerness to
get at the honey IN a hollow tree will
sometimes wedge themselves into so
small hole as to endanger their lives,
and many forest birds, such as wood
peckers, blue jays and thrushes, will
run the danger of being stung to death
in their endeavors to obtain the sweet
honey that the bees store in the hollow
trunks of trees. Sometimes they will
attack bees on the wing and snap them
up for the tiny speck of nectar contained
in their sacks. Blue jays often take a
position near beehives and fish all day
for honey Every returning bee is
caught, but not devoured, for birds will
kill the bee only that they may sip up
the honey. Unless driven away few
such bird robbers would soon depopu-
late a hive.
fight the birds. They issue in body
from the hive and make bold attack
upon the assassins. In the quick, sharp
conflict that follows the birds invaria-
bly, get defeated. Indeed they do not at
tempt to resist the onslaught. but seek
safety in flight If the bees surround
one of the birds quickly enough, there
is little hope for the robber They settle
down upon him and sting him to death.
He may fly away, but the bees cling to
his back and sides tenaciously. His
flight soon becomes less energetic and
more and more unceytain until at last
he drops to the earth and gasps out his
life among the leaves and bushes, while
the bees return triumI bantly to their
home.
In the wild forests the honey loving
birds sometimes make an organized at
tempt to drive the bees away from their
home in the hollow trunk of a tree
They first discover the place of the hid
den treasure 10y following the bees ON a
warm, sunny day, and if there be an
opening in the tree large enough to ad-
NIT them they plunge down the hole in
body
Then there follows a sharp conflict
inside the tree. the birds swapping at the
bees and cutting them in two at each
snap The only chance for the bees is to
light on the backs and sides of the
birds. If they fail to do this, they are
soon routed. and the rich treasures of
sweets are captured by the enemies.
These BATTLES terminate III various ways,

In q recent lawsuit in Washington
the court was frequently compelled to
cut short the cross examination of wit
nesses by a certain lawyer who was said
to believe in 1.-THE quantity rather than
the quality Of questions. A" His point
evidently was to make the case last as
long as possible The following. which
is given as an illustration of the man.
ner of his questioning, exemplifies the
remoteness from common sense of some
of the methods of law practice:
Counsel Ito the witness)-Was it
white?
Witness-Yes.
.'You think it was white?''
"Yes."
"It is your opinion, then, that it was
white?'
Yes"
''You are sure it was whiteT'
'Yes."
at is your impression it was whittier"
"Yes."
'It wasn't black?"
''You are sure it wasn't black?"
81 am"
"Wasn't it a little dark colored?"
mo"
"What color was ftp"
"White.
"White?"
white.
Here are 10 questions, nine of which
are unnecessary. But if the lawyer had
succeeded somewhere in the question
ing in undermining the certainty of the
witness he would have made a small
point for his side of the case, and from
his clients point of view his long wind
ed examination would have been justi-
fied.-Youth's Companion

ALEXANDER III.
The Gar of All the Russians Was
Not Coward.

Alexander II was certainly imam OF real,
though quiet and undemonstraIive personal
courage. But for his disregard of the precau-
lions by which the police sought TO surround
him. he might have been alive to-day. The
Third Section was wholly unrepresented in
Bulgaria, and his Majesty's protection on
cami align consisted merely Of a handful Of
Cossacks. No GORDON of sentries surrounded
his simple camp; his tent at PavlO, and the
dIapidated Turkish house which for months
was his residence at Gorni Sudden, were alike
destitute OF. guards. When he drove OUT or
visited the hospitals, his escort was couple of
CoSsackS. In the woods about Bjela, in the
early days of the war. there remained some for
Torn bivouacs OF Turkish families. Alexander
would alighJ and visit them, his sole companion
the aid de- camp on duty; and he would fe r.
leSSlY venture among he sullen TurkS-ali OF
whom were armed to the teeth-trv o persuade
them 10 return to their homes, and promise TO
send them food and medicine. During the
September attack on Plevna be was continually
on The field while daylight lasted, looking OUT on
the slaughter from an emnence within range
of the Turkish cannon fire and manifestly en-
during keen anguish al tn spectacle OF the
losses of his troops. Alexander III literally
threw his life away in his self-regardless con-
Germ for the suffering. After the first bomb
had burst on tie Alexandra Canal road, strlB-
ing down civilians and CoSSackS OF he escort,
but leaving the Emperor unburt, his Coachman
begged to be allowed 10 dash forward ana
carry bis Majesty clear of danger. But
Alexander forbade him with the words: mo,
no; 1 must light and see to the wounded"
and, as b was carrying out his heroic and
benign intentions the second bomb exploded
and wrought his death.-Archibald Fo; bes in

THE RIVALS OF FULTON.
Success in His Case Produced the
Usual Result.

Fulton was not long in possession of
the steamboat business on the Hudson"
said Uncle Dave. 'In fact, like all
original inventors, he was soon pestered
by imitators and rivals in the business
which he had originated. His patents
were disputed. and it has been thought
that his death was fastened by the worry
and trouble growing out of lawsuits
against rivals in the steamboat business.
'But my purpose is to relate a story
about what was proba bly, the first steam
boat race in the world-at least, the first
that we have. any account of, though since
that time they have been of cons ant occur

but upon the ocean. 10 the month of
September, 1909, says Professor Ranwick,
l was partaker in an exciting scene,
the first enacted, of a eamboat race.
A company from Albany had been formed
for the purpose of competing with Fulton.
The first vessel Of his rival line was ad-
vertised to leave Albany at the same time
as Fulton's.
Parties ran high in the hotels of
Albany. The partisans Of Fulton were
enrolled under Professor Kemp, of Colum-
bia College those Of the opposition under
Jacob Stout. The victory was long in
suspense. and it was not until after the
thirteen h hour Of hard struggle that
the result vas proclaimed by DR. Kemp
on the taffrail of Fulton's vessel. He held
out in derIsion a coil of rope to Captain
Stout for the purpose. as he informed
him, OF towing him into port When the
