rect examination until the judge leaned
over his desk with frown 10 protest
against such useless repetition. 1t now
lacked but - minutes of being five
o'clock, however, and it was with an
air of buoyant cheerfulness that Bar
tells called his last witness TO the stand.
So far he felt the day was his.
But before three words had been
spoken it was clear that this last wit
ness, an assayer from the local smelter,
for some reason would rather have been
excused. He reluctantly admitted that
he had made assays from both the Mas
cot and the Grubstake ores. He could
not deny that they were similar in
character, but he did not remember
that he had ever said that in his opinion
they came from the same vein. He did
not know why he should have said any
thing like that; it was understood at
the smelter that business was not TO
be talked outside; moreover he could
not say now that he did think they had
come from the same vein. Ore from adj
iacent mines was commonly quite sim
liar. AS to whether the Grubstake had
been shipping high-grade ore of late he
could not say; only the superintendent
OF the smelter could tell that; he kept
run of the lots that came in. The wit
ness had made most of the assays of
late, but quite commonly the samples
had been simply numbered SO that he
had no means of knowing from which
mine they came. Again Mr.. Criley
smilingly waived the privilege of cross
examination and Bartels saw the wit
ness leave the chair with feeling that
his cause had gained nothing by this tes-
timony beyond the consumption of
time. But it was now six minutes be-
You'd the regular hour of adjournment
and he felt measurably content as he adj
dressed the court, making a motion that
the jury be taken through the workings
of both mines the next day, motion
promptly denied. Each side in con-
troversy, his honor declared, was at lib
erty TO bring into court such maps,
drawings or other documentary evil
dence as might be thought necessary
to make clear to the jury the points in
dispute; but he saw no reason for vast
ing the time of the court in what would
be simply a day of junlleting in the
mountains.
AS Bartels had ceased to look for any
favor from the court he was not sur
prised nor in any wise cast down, as
with a reassuring glance at the clock,
he resumed his seat. But a surprise was

lEAF-CUTTlNG BEES.
Honey Gatherers That Snip Pieces
from the ROse.Leaves.

Some Common Bees and How They
Live" by a. Hyatt Verrill, is an article
that appears in ST. Nicholas. Mr.. YER
rill says:
Perhaps some of my readers may
have noticed on their rose-bushes n
number of leaves in which neat round or
oblong holes were cut. Thisis the work
of the leaf-cutting bee, a pretty little in
sect looking much like the common
honey-bee, but with stout orange-red
legs and metallic-green reflections
about the head. Although the mutilated
leaves are all too common, the nest for
which they are sacrificed is seldom
seen; for this little bee is a carpenter as
well as a leaf-cutter, and hides her
home away deep in the heart of some
old post or board. The hole is much
ike that of her busy relative, the car

penter-bee, but smaller, and instead of
forming n tunnel at right angles to the
entrance, penetrates directly into the
wood.
When the hole is drilled to her salts
faction, our little friend stops carpen-
ter work, and flying to the nearest rose
bush, selects tender, perfect leaf.
From this she cuts oblong pieces, which
are carried TO the nest and formed into
n thimble-shaped tube at its bottom.
This tube is next filled with pollen and
honey, on which tiny egg is placed.
Another trip is taken to the rose-bush,
and this time perfectly circular pieces
a trifle larger than the diameter of the
tube are cut. These the little worker
forces into the upper end of the tube,
forming a tightly fitting stopper. These
operations are repreated until the hole
is filled with tubes, one above another.
The lowest eggs hatch first, and each
young Dee waits for the one beyond to
go forth, in the same manner as the
young of the large carpenter-bee.

The voices of American young women

tiful, but they do not last. The whole
time is given to the study of music and
little to the building up of the physical

are laying heavy demands. Spraying the

A Central American Boiled the sirup
and the Animal Did the Rest

A story comes from Central America
that a jaguar came to natives sugar
bush one day and upset the pan of boil
ing hot sirup while jumping over it
at the natives dog. 1t, was Il sad mis-
hap for the jaguar, but a joyful one
for the native, who sat in n nearby tree
hugging it hard lest he slide down into
the jaguar's open mouth. The boiling
sirup got on the jaguar's paws. 1t made
the jaguar roar with pain, and over and
over the brute rolled, trying to shake
off the hot, sticky stuff. 1t rolled into
the stream Of sugar and was plastered
from head to foot. Even its eyes were
closed. Monkeys and birds from the
neighboring thickets came around and
squealed.
The molasses stuck the fur into wads
and clumps, and the leaves and twigs
lying about stuck fast to the hair.
When the big cat rolled up against u
tree trunk it would seize the trunk with
its teeth and claws, tearing through the
bark. For over two hours the beast
ripped things up with undiminished
vigor, then it slowly ceased struggling.
Then the native, John Costerize, slid
down the tree, picked up his machete,
sneaked up to the beast cautiously, and,
using the big knife as an AK, brought
the heavy blade down on the brute's
skull, knocking out the last vestige of
life. With the assistance of neighbors,
he dragged the carcass TO a nearby
stream where il was soaked for n daV
TO dissolve the molasses. The beast
was then skinned, and now. Costerize
poses as a mighty hunter.-N. Y. Sun.
