Farmer Moore Attracted Their At

Shauiokin, Pa, Aug. IL. II. C. Moore and
John Rey buck, Rush Township farmers had
anexpcrience with several swarms OF bees
under the care of doctors, as their faces,
heads and hands are terribly swollen as the
result OF hundreds of stings inflicted by
the angry little insects.
Knowing that Mr.. Moore owned pair
OF clippers, Reybuck visited his farm in
order to have his hair cut, but while this
work was under way, Farmer Moore's
seven hive sof bees began toswarm and the
men armed themselves with tin pais, on
which they beat furiously In order to at
tract the attention OF the swarming bees.
The charm did not work, however, and
fearing that the queen bee was ubout to
lead the swarm to clump OF trees some
distance from his farm, Mr. Moore resolved
to apply yheroicmeasures Procuring an old
shotgun he fired into the swarm and sue
ceeded in attracting undivided attention
Hundreds of bees fastened themselves upon

date for Vice President.
Syracuse, N. Y, Aug 19.-The Prohibi-
ZIONIST State convention, for the nomina-
ton OF governor and lieutenant-governor
opened in the Alhambra in this city this
morning, with a meager attendance of
delegates.
The convention was called to order at
1915 O'Clock by DR.. Mitchell Downing, Of
Poughkeepsie, chairman Of the State COM
mttee, who introduced Mr.. and Mrs. Rever-
idge, OF Nebraska, the Prohibition sing
ers. Prayer was offered by Rev. Dr.. A. Hoyt,
of Schuyler county, after which Francis f.
Baldwin, of Elmira, was elected temporary
chairman.
He addressed the convention at length.
He charged that the responsibility for the
dissertation of the Sabbath rested upon the
Prohibtionists, who were too negligent
to vote with their party. Mr.. Baldwin said
he believed the Raines law was the worst
ever put OIL the statute books. The prohibi
tion OF the liquor traffic. he declared, was
Of more vital interest than any other ques-
tion now before the American people.
The list of secretaries was then read, and
then occurred the first real enthusiasm of
the convention, when a delegate moved
that Hale johnson. the Vice Presidential
candidate, be invited to the platform to
address the convention. The eco or more
delegates present gave johnson an ova-
tion.
Mr.. johnson, in the course OF his remarks,
said that the Prohibitionists were the only
hope of the laboring element and the only
written party that stands for the guaran-
teeing Of the credit and honor Of the
party.

MARKET WAS HEAVY.

Caused the Decline.

Fears of Higher Rates for Money
Caused the Decline.
New York, Aug. 19--Stocss. after Q
steady opening, developed considerable
weakness, the leading issues declining any
where from Ia to l 1-2 per cent. London
cables reported a weak market for American
securities there, and arbitrage houses were
sellers OF all International stocks right at
the opening OF business
The heaviness of the market was due to
fears Of still higher rates for money, the
falling off in railway earnings for the sec
ond week of August and the reports OF cut
ting in freight rates In the West. Certain
bear leaders, who have been rather quiet
oflate, put outfresh short lines In the prom
inent stocks and this accelerated the down
ward movement
Sterling exchange was reduced 1-2 cent
to 4.S5 and SO l-2 for posted rates, bet
this did not check the downward tendency
Of the stock market.
The important declines during the first
hour follow: Sugar, LIZ to 103: TJaacco.

The stock market relapsed into dullness
after II o'clock. Prices, however. were a
shade better for the general list, while
Sugar rallied to 104, but toward midday.
on very moderate sales, the market eassi
off again. In the active issues Lead pre-
ferred dropped 3-4 to IS 1-2. and Min
