HONEY HUNTING BEARS.

No bee hunter can line and find a
bee tree with more precision than the
American black bear can and does.
When he finds the tree, he climbs it
stopping every little distance to ham
mer on the trunk with one of his paws
so that he will know by the sound
when he reaches the hollow place
where the honey is stored. When the
spot is located, the bear scratches and
paws ard bites away the wood until
he has hole big enough in the hollow
stem to thrust his paw in and reach
the coveted sweets. He sops the hon
ey out and licks it off his paw and
smacks his lips like a boy licking taf-
ty.
If it is warm weather, the bees buzz
about his head and dip him with their
stingers, but bruin shuts his eyes and
laughs and keeps on sopping up the
honey. The bear has just as sweet a
tooth for domestic honey as he has
for the wild, and it is no trick at all
for him to step into the backwoods
farmers yard and walk off with a
beeskip under his arm.

THE RAILROAD SPEED RECORD
BROKEN BETWEEN PHlLADEL-
PHI4 AND ATLANTIC CITY

The magnificent physical condition
of the Pennsylvania Railroads Dou-
BILE Lines to Atlantic City was fully
attested April 21st, in the splendid run
made by the special train from Phila-
delphia to Atlantic City. The train
put out of tine slip at Market Street
Wharf at $50 A. NJ. precisely, and
fifty-one and one-half minutes there
after came to a stop in Atlantic City
Station. f..t..
The train left the station in Camden
six and quarter minutes after the de-
parture from the Philadelphia sides
that the actual running time was only
forty-tive and three-quarter minutes.
The distance by this route is fifty.eight
and three tenths miles, and the aver
age speed was seventy-six and one
balf miles per hour This is the fast
est time ever made between the Del
aware and Atlantic Ocean, and is ac-
tually the fastest time ever made by
any railroad train for the distance
From Winslow to Absecon, twenty
four and nine-tenths miles, an aver
age speed of eighty three miles per
hour was maintained.
The fastest single mile was made in
forty one seconds, which is an aver
6lSO Vi ClSlIy -sCNCA dLlu clSlAL71ChIhS
miles per hour.
This is the most notable performance
in railroad speed which has yet been
recorded. 1t could not be accomplish
ed without the aid of the best and
most substantial roadbed, the finest
modern equipment, and the skillful
management of experienced men.
portion of the Pennsylvania Sys-
tenn, off the world-famous main line,
is superior to the division over which
this phenomenal run was made. The
track is laid with heavy steel rails on
stone ballast, a great part of which
has been renewed during the past
winter, and the movement of trains is
protected by block signals. The
equipment has been greatly improved
by the addition of locomotives of the
highest standard and handsome
coaches and parlor cars.
These facts are of peculiar interest
in view of the great traffic which the
summer will bring to this popular
route.
The management is fully alive to
the demand for the best accommoda-
tions and the quickest time consistent
with safety, and the summer schedule
will undoubtedly present the largest
number of the best eqipped and fast
est trains ever enjoyed by the travel
ers between the Delaware and the
Ocean.

A FALSE MAXIM.

The loungers around the only store
in little New England village were
greatly amused at something that
happened one warm afternoon. A
tall, lank, barefooteG man came into
the store with gallon pail filled with
black berries, which he exchanged for
three quarts of molasses.
He carried stout hickory walking
stick in one hand and when he depart
ed he put the pail on one end of the
stick and threw the stick across his
shoulder. He reached the platform
in front of the store when shining
new pin at his feet caught his eye.
'sSee pin and pick it up,
All the day you'll have good luck"
he drawled out and stopped over to
pick up the pin, when the molasses
crawled out all over his back and
neck.
Strengthening himself hurriedly, the
man said:
WAL, l never thought much of
that air proverb, an | think less of it

GENUINE COUNTERFEITS.

The most singular case of counter
feiting that ever fell under the notice
of civilized man is probably that of
certain silver dollars now in circula-
ton. These dollars have the exact
amount of silver in them that is con-
t;lined in the standard dollar of the
United States, yet they are worth
about 40 cents less than that dollar,
because in the bullion market of
the world United States silver
dollar is worth as bullion something
like 40 cents less than its face value.
The question has been asked whether
the making of these silver coins of the
exact weight and fineness of the gov
ernment dollar is punishable under
existing laws. 1t certainly is under the
clause of the constitution which for
bids the coming of money by any 9th
er power than the federal govern
ment. ANY money otherwise coined,
even if it were gold dollars, would be
counterfeit.

Through the wood paths free;
Bringing many wanderer home,
With the bird and bee.

Are ye waiting song?
Doth wild music stream in showers

While the starlight reigns,
Making young leaves and sweet air
Tremble with her strains.

And the heavens bright smile
Throw not shades of anxious thought
Ger the glowing flowers!

Not an Easy Job When the Lawyer Tries
 to Trip His Witness.
 A dialogue about Heaven took place between a member of the Baltimore county bar and lady eighty-two years old, who was under examination in an equity case, says the Baltimore Sun. The lawyer to test the lady's faith in the hereafter, asked her if she thought they would know each other in Heaven. She replied by asking him another question as to where Heaven was. His reply was not, satisfactory to the old lady, and she told the lawyer that if he wanted to question her about any place he must locate it. Then she added: ''Of course we will know each other in Heaven, for our bodies will be the same there, except that we will not have any blood in us." The lawyer next asked her if she thought people would have teeth in Heaven. She said she could not answer that definitely, but she thought they would. "One thing was certain" she added, people would have teeth in the place allotted to the wicked, and she could prove it by Scripture" ''How can you prove it?" said the lawyer. "Why," she re- piled, 'the Scripture says the wicked shall be turned into utter darkness, where there shall be weeping, wailing
