The Sands & Ashley shows were
here on Monday, and gave performan-
ces to a fair sized audience in the
afternoon, and to a packed tent in
the evening. The performance was
gool, vely good for the low price of
admission, twenty-five cents. There
was nothing to offend the most fasti,
dious in any way. Their bills were
paid promptly and cheerfully, and the
press agent, ]. N. Wisner is a pleas
ant gentleman who understands his
business. The show came from Dan
vile to Bloom on Saturday night on
the P. & R. and remained here over
Sunday. The work of erecting the
tents, except such as were absolutely
necessary for shelter, was not done
until early Monday morning.
There have been rumors afioat OF
certain people losing money in some
games of chance on the ground. We
have heard of several men who are
old enough and intelligent enough tc
know better than to try to beat q
swindler at his own game, who lost
some money on these schemes. They
are entitled to no sympathy, anc
ought to be ashamed of themselves
While the swindlers ought to be stop
pei from carrying on their games
those who patronize them are no bet
ter than they are. Mr.. Wisner informs
us that these sharpers are in no way
connected with the show.

AlTGELD TALKS OF DOODLE.
The Sensational Governor of Illinois
Springs His Latest Sensation.

Springfield, ILL.,, July 11.-Governor
Altgeld has made great sensation by
giving out an interview attacking ex-
Speaker Clayton E. Crafts, one of the
most prominent Democrats in the Legis-
lature, which, it is thought will un-
doubtedly lead to the appointment of a
committee to look into the charges of
"boodling' that have been SO freely made
of late.
In his interview the Governor says it
is unfortunate that Mr.. Crafts should
have been named as the Democratic eau
Gus nominee for speaker as his name
has been SO frequently mentioned in con-
nection with what have been designated
as doodle measures
Governor Altgeld is very anxious to
have committee appointed to look into
the case of alleged boodling, and 1t has
been his opinion that several of the Dem
ocratic mem bers of the legislature have
not been as earnest and enthusiastic in
the matter as they might be. The COVER
nor does not say that ex-Speaker Crafts
is a "boodler." but he says-that it is very

HOW TO PREVENT sWaRMlNo.
AS Told by an Ohio Beekeeper In The
American Bee Journal.

| AS Told by an Ohio Beekeeper In The
American Bee Journal.
To the apiarist whose chief object is
the production of honey the prevention
OF increase by natural swarming be-
comes a serious problem, which is not
satisfactorily solved by many. The bee
keeping fraternity practices various
plans to accomplish this, such as remov-
ing Or caging the queen, cutting out
queen cells, using entrance guards or
queen traps, extracting or giving sur
plus room above Where / run for comb
honey alone have attained fair success
along by keeping myself posted concern
ing the condition Of the colonies, and
whenever I fihd one whose brood cham
Der is getting nearly full (and this the
experienced beekeeper is enabled to tell
at glance on opening the hive by OBJ
serving that the bees have begun to
whiten and bulge the combs at the top
bars) L put on super at once and put
III it two or three partly filled sections
to entlce the bees to go to work above,
whichthey will usually do tonce if there
is sufficient flow of nectar observe
that the bees are still hampered for
room, then put on another, puttinga4t
beneath the first, which should now be
partly filled. Give the bees Just room
enough and then entice them to go to
work above, and you have accomplished
your object, and thereby increased your
profits and abated the swarming fever.
In addition to the above, if it is at
time of the year when the young bees
reared would mature at time to assist
in gathering some particular honey
flow, Iremove the outside frames, which
are usually filled with honey only, and
slip in the middle of the colony a cou-
pie of frames filed with full sheets of
foundation. This will give the bees and
queen more room and work for awhile.
But to get at the matter Alright so as
to obtain the best results it becomes nee
essary for us to go further back and see
that we have got a strain Of bees whose
energies are spent on honey gathering
more than on increase alone. There is
without doubt a vast difference in va
rious strains of bees in this respect.
While some with a vim are gathering
in from field and wood the various
sweets which they can find, others, with
equal energy, are bent on increasing
their numbers more than their stores,
and consequently when winter comes
they find that they have swarmed the
harvest time away, so to speak, and are
without stores for winter.
We should breed only from those
queens whose colonies approach nearest
our ideal of perfection, considering in
their proper order the qualities of hardi-
ness, honey gathering, gentleness and
beauty.

unfortunate that his name should have
been prominently connected with many
of the measures to which the taint OF
"boodle'' has been attached.
Mr.. Crafts replied to the Governor
tonight and says he has done nothing in
connection with any measure of which
he has reason to beE ashamed He in
dignantly repudiates any suggestion of
"boodle' and says he cannot understand
why the Governor should intimate that
he is not honest. He indorsed the call of
the extra y session, and says he received
Mr.. Altgeld's warm commendatior, and
therefore cannot understand the Cover
nor's sudden enmity and opposition to
him.
Governor Altgeld says he can put his
hands upon some of the members who
were paid for their votes in behalf of the

cRANKs AT AseURY PARK.
Gen. Miles Among to Notables Who Saw
Them Race.

Asbury Park, N. j., July 1.-The rain
which fell this morning upon the trial
heats of the first days racing of the
League of American Wheelmen, ceased
before the afternoon work began The
weather had diminishing effect upon
the crowd which completely filled the
grand stand and went long way out
on the big new bleachers. Notables
were present by scores, including Gen.
Nelson A. Miles. The racing was all of
high order and exceptionally free from
accidents considering the dangerous
banking on the turns The novice race
was not extraordinary. G. c. Dirnberger
of Buffalo, won easily. Walter Douglass,
the champion swimmer of America, who
is becoming class A crack, took the
two mile handicap in mastery style.
Tom Butler of Cambridgeport, Mass. !,
should have had the hall, mile class A
open, but after winning his heat, he was
obliged at once to start in the final with
out rest or rub down. He ran sec ond to
Ertz of New York, in driving finish,
with Douglass, Ertz squeezing betw cen
the others at the very tape. The class A
tandem events were pretty, but tame.
Caldell of Manchester and Tom Butler
had an easy thing in the heat and final
The main interest lay in the single pro-
fessional event.
Zimmerman and Wheeler paced on a
tandem with Fred ST. Onge with Bolo
Starbuck and Eaton. and Cutter and
McCurdy struggling on. The race was so
hot that ST. Onge fell at the three quar-
tiers. Berlo did the rest. The best racing
and liyliest performances were seen in
the class B contest Cabanne having
been laid up in the heat of the morning,
Bald, Mcdonald and Titus were left
to fight it out in three races, half mile,
and the two mile heat and the two mile
national championship. The first heat
was beauty. Mcdonald, Titus, Scott
and Earl started down the stretch. Nc
Donald gaining at every inch, and Titus
forging along like cyclone. The men
almost touched elbows as they flashed
over the tape at the same instant, Scott
beating easily for the third. The other
heast were less exciting and caused a
great deal of uneasiness owing to the
large field of starters, although Willie
Terrill was the only B man to race. The
mile championship final was won by
Butler. In the mile open, Eddie Bald
sustained his reputation for this sort of
thing, although Titus nearly won the
prize. Gardiner, Maddox, Allen and
Church were the other starters.
