An Adirondack Painter Mourning Over

 (R. M Shurtleff in New York Mail and Ex-
 press,)
 The Mail and Express has been doing noble service in aid of a bill de- signed to save the deer in the Adiron- dacks from utter extermination. There is another field for it's services equally urgent and important. It is to save the forest, that is going even faster than the deer.
 I have just returned from a trip to the mountains. As I drove into Keene Valley the view of the meadows and wooded hills, with the snow covered mountains beyond, was beautiful be- yond description. The next sight was of the river rushing madly past, and filled with logs cut into lengths of four feet. What astonished one was to see that they were not small sticks of pop lar, or even spruce of few inches di- ameter, but great logs of the finest quality of spruce, often more than two feet in diameter,

 A little farther on we could see the side of one of the mountains overlook : ing that beautiful valley almost entire ly stripped of trees. Nothing is left but the dead branches that in the sum mer sun will become like finder invit- ing fires to finish the destruction of 9 spot that should be the pride of all Americans. This mountain whence the timber came stands within the lines of the proposed state park. The man who has caused the destruction is the proprietor of big hotel, who will ad- vertise in the New York papers the beauties of the view from his house, the health to be found in the odor of the fir trees etc, etc. The people of that section have no love for the mountains of woods but the dollar they can get to- day. They cannot look ahead and see that they are killing the goose that lays the golden egg" I fear the same thing is true of the majority of our people. Yet, I think if people could know how fast that beautiful region is being despoiled they would insist on some laws to save it.
 The people who live there see that every year they have more destructive freshets and longer droughts. The whole state will suffer more and more.

 She Didn't Know the Bees Were Swarm-
 ing.
 (Mlssissippi Letter to Philadelphia Times.
 Uncle Isham was whitewashing at our place the other day when swarm of bees in full wing chanced to pervade the atmosphere. Now, bees are much dearer to the heart of Uncle Isham than whitewashing. though whitewash- ing is his profession, so I was not sur prised when the old man dropped his brush head and ears in the bucket strengthened his crooked back and hob bled up to the door.
 Gimme de dinner bell, mistis," he said excitedly.
 What is it?" I asked.
 Bees" he whispered, and I got the bell l knew the old mans weakness. Besides, it is not uninteresting to see swarm of bees hived-from a perfectly safe distance, understand, The bees showed some signs of making a raid on a honeysucEle vine that was in full bloom on my trellis, but the queen seemed dainty about making a landing. She buzzed and whirled and shifted with the swarm at her heels till the air
 was black with bees, but resolutely in
 the midst, with his bell ringing, stood Uncle Isham alone and unprotected, yet with his face to the foe. I couldn't | tell whether the swarm was moving with the old man or he was moving with the swarm. the bees were so thick about him, but the group kept up a continual migration till at last the door of my little poultry yard was reached. A heavily blossomed rosebush grew | just beside the gate, and upon this at 1 length the queen seemed to have made up her mind to light. She made dive downward the swarm following, when, | just at the critical moment, a hen from | the poultry yard, with 8 loud cackle, l flew from her nest into the very midst of the swarm
 "Drat dat ole fool hen!" I heard Un- cle Isham say, and I thought the game was ended.
 What those bees and that hen really | thought, it was impossible to state with | accuracy, but they evidently seemed to think that some mutually reacting kind
 of cyclone business had been let loose | in their midst, For a moment or two there appeared to be just a conglom- crate mixture of bees and hen in mid air, and. by and by, when they came | down, they were literally all there and all together The queen, who had no doubt been knocked perfectly silly" was comfortably established on the | hens back, while the whole swarm clung around her. The poor hen was
 bedecked from tip to beak, and could not move feather.
 Uncle Isham, very much surprised at
 the turn of affairs, got a box and soon
 had the swarm safely hived much to | the poor hens relief.
