Testing the New Engine.-A test of
the merits of the Howe chemical fire engine
and apparatus just purchased by the Mayor
and Council of Rockville was given on
Monday evening last on the premises of
Mr.. VIM. Reading In the presence of about
one thousand spectators, including large
number of ladies. For the purpose of
thoroughly testing the efficiency of the ma
chine large frame house had been con-
structed and filled with inhammable mate
rails and the whole saturated with coal oil.
This was fired, and when the whole build
ing and contents were mass of flames, a
stream of water impregnated with the chem
icals used in this machine was brought to
play upon the burning building, and in two
minutes the flames were subdued. After a
short interval more combustible materials
were added, and when the fire was under
full Roadway stream of water alone was
turned on with the effect that the fire was
put out in about three minutes Alter the
fire test the hook and ladder apparatus was
brought into play and an exhibition given
of the efficiency of the same in tearing down
building in order to save other property.
Previous to the fire test the engine was
placed near the we'll at the intersection of
Montgomery Avenue and Fayette street
and the suction hose connected with the
water in the well. The engine was then
put to work and water thrown over the
houses in that vicinity. 1t was also forced
through 500 feet of hose to the Town Hall,
square away, and strong stream was
thrown entirely over the building.
The Council held meeting on Tuesday
night, accepted the engine and paid for the
same.

woman went down for the last time. The
body was recovered few moments later
and carried to the shore. Restoratlves
were applied aud all resuscitating methods
adopted, but only gasp or two rewarded
the workers, and death quickly followed.
The patrol was summoned and the body
was taken to the seventh precinct morgue

TRAPS. FOR DRONFS

An Easy way Of Getting Rid Of Use,eas.
Honey Consumers.
Almost any warm afternoon one NAV

about the hives with noise equal to

ers. These are the drones who toll not,
and are useful only to fertilize the
queen. AS this is necessary but once
in her lifetime, it is evident that bv
far the greater part Of drone's life is
spent in useless consumption of stores.
Nor is this all; as soon as honey be-
comes scarce in the field the attention
of many of the workers is taken up
with destroying these oilers, and the
working force depleted to that extent.
1t is no uncommon thing to see two or
more workers hauling out a drone,
and either executing him or driving
him into exile. ..t..... sn.,..., ..,....-.
1t is important to save the bees as
much work as possible, and thus econo-
mize their time. That is just what
drone traps are for, and the one here
illustrated is regarded almost univer-
sally as the drone trap for all apiaries.
A close examination of the cut will ex-
plain the method of its use, think,

TRIVIAL TROUBLE FINDERS.

One Of Them squelohed In His Quest BY

there was nothing for them to grumble

Charity Of Speech.

Charity of speech is as divine thing
as charity Of action. TO Judge no one
harshly, to misc conceive no mans mo-
tives, to believe things are as they
seem to be until they are proved other
wise, to temper judgment with mercy
surely this is quite as good as to
build up churches. estab lish asylums
and found colleges. Unkind words do
as much harm as unkind deeds. Many
heart has been wounded beyond
cure, many a reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little words.
There is a charity which consists in
withholding words, in keeping back
harsh judgments, in abstaining from
speech, if to speak is to condemn.
Such charity hears the tale of SANDER,
but does not repeat it; listens in ST.
lence, but forbears comment: then
locks the unpleasant secret up in the
very depths OF the heart. Silence can
still rumor; it is speech that keeps
story alive and lends it vigor.-Detroit

ALLEY TRAP.

freely, but not the larger drones. The
latter, trying to escape to the outer air,
crawl about in search of an exit, and
finally find it through the apex of the
wire cone shown in the center of the
trap. (The latest patterns contain
three cones.) This leads them into an
upper chamber or apartment entirely
inclosed with perforated strips, and
from which there is no exit for them,
except through the one by which they
entered, route they are very seldom
able to retrace. In this way in the
course of one or two warm afternoons
about all the drones in the hive may
be captured and destroyed at leisure.
Or, If one does not care to kill them,
an opening from the end of this cham
Der to the outer air, closed by sliding
tin, may be left open and the drones
allowed to pass out this way. AS they
cannot return by this route, they are
effectually debarred from reentering
the hive. If this method is adopted,
however, care should be taken that
they do not simply go into another
hive. II they are killed while Gagged
see that no workers are with them.
So much for this ''alley trap" as it is
called, as drone excluder. AS
queen catcher it is also valuable. The
queen is also larger than the workers,
hence unable to pass through the per-
forated zinc. To prevent the issuing
and departure of a swarm during the
absence of the apiarist, place the trap
before the entrance as for drones, TAX
ing care to see that the entrance at the
end is closed. If swarm attempts to
issue the queen will either be forced
back into the hive or caught in the
drone chamber, and held till the re-
turn or convenience of the apiarist. OF
course the swarm is not likely to go
without her.
Formerly it was considered sufficient
to catch her, and prevent the departure
OF swarm to parts unknown. Now
new feature is being successfully intro
duced-a self-hiver. The top of the
trap is perforated or removed for this,
and 4 box made with the ends fitting
tightly over the ends of the trap, the
back consisting of the front Of the
hive, and the front a sloping board,
not too smooth, extending upwards;
all forming a second chamber above
the trap, bee-tight, but With open top,
which should be exactly on level with
the top of the hive. On top of this,
place the hive into which you wish to
introduce the new swarm. The large
chamber of the self-hiver then will
open at the top, directly into the empty
hive, and the swarm following their
queen up through the trap, will pres
emily find themselves in their new hive.
By placing trap across the entrance
to this to retain the queen, one can be
sure the swarm will stay here, and at
the same time allow the workers free
passage out of and into their new home.
BY this method one may leave the
apiary to look after itself for the day,
without fear of losing swarm of bees,
and find them on his return at night
already hived and settled in their new
quarters. Gardening.
