Hundreds of pedestrians and e1e-

truck drivers and residents of Balti-
more witnessed a novel sight the
other morning. About o'clock
dense swarm of bees silently and sud
denly swept down on that region, and
for nearly three hours made the cross
walks impassab BILE Throngs of peO-
pie gathered in groups in the ad-
joining corners, and drivers of We
hicles Of every description from time
to time made traffic impossible. a
humorous side of the occurrence was
when an open car passed. 1t was
compelled to drive through the thick
est portion of the swarm. The sud-
den head-ducking, the speedy cover
ing of faces, accompanied by the
smothered CALCULATIONS of the
women and the less elegant exple tives
Of the men, added to the frac-
tious antics of the car horses
and the frantic efforts Of the driver
to beat off the bees cOnvulsed the
people on the sidewalk. At 4 o'clock
three elevated road employees swOop-
ed down on the bees. After half an
hour of fruitless efforts to dislOdge
them they gave up the fight in dis
gust Scores of suggestions. witty,
wise or worthless. came from all
sides. Finally Frank Eddy, who was
one Of the passengers on the elevated
road, who had been stung, hit upon a
plan which, after patient effort, re-
suited in the capture of several thOus-
and bees. An empty nail-keg, with
one of the chimes knocked out, was
sTneared with mOlasses and suspended
from a guard rail of the elevated
road, and dropped directly in the
midst of the whirling mass. The
scheme was successful. Mr.. Eddy is
proud of his hunt. He estimates the
bees numerically at 5000, and the
value Of the captives at close to $50.
