bees were not troubled by this fact.

BEES IN A CELLAR.

The Professors Apiary Is Both Inter
esting and Profitable.
Something wonderful in the line of
bee culture is in Chicago. An Engle-
wood professor keeps a colony of bees
in his cellar. In the basement of the
house at No. 529 West Sixty second
street, is as strange a colony of city
jewellers as can we'll be found. 1t is.
indeed, another city, and it's inhabit
ants are bees-the common honey bees.
The fact that honey bees are connected
in most persons minds with shady
orchards and broad stretches of clover
and are wholly out of place among
stone walls and dusty streets makes
no difference to the colony which has

ton walls Ever since it has been
installed there it has gone on with its
natural vocation gathering and stor-
ing away honey as though in no I'M
usual situation, until it has made the
scene of its endeavors the sweetest
hcuse in America.
]. E. Armstrong is the owner of the
strange colony. Mr.. Armstrong is the
principal of the Englewood high school
and has devoted considerable time to
that branch of science which deals
with insects. The honey bee, espec-
tally, has been one of his subjects of
study and he was hampered by the
fact that to study this insect it was
necessary to take considerable ex-
cursions into the country. For the
Englewood high school is not one of
the honey bees haunts. In this pre-
dicament he bethought himself of
similar trouble between Mohammed
and the mountain, and drawing in
spiration from precedent decided, since
he had not time to go to the bees, to
bring the bees to him.

Mr.. Hamlin's Good Opinion.

Before leaving Washington said ex-
Assistant Secretary Hamlin last evening,
II cannot refrain from expressing my ap-
probation Of the courtesy and considera-
ton extended to me by President Mckin-
ley and Secretary Gage. No one probably
has been brought into closer official rela-
tions with Mr.. Gage than 1 during the last
five weeks, and 1 will venture the predic-
ton that his record as Secretary of the
Treasury will be a memorable one. man
of affairs, an earnest consistent civil serv-
ice reformer. a trained financier of the first
rank he brings qualifications into his high
office rarely possessed by any one man.
In the management of the nations finances
he should receive the cordial support Of all
people regardless of party affiliations.
II may also add that the cause of civil
service reform has received powerful inn
petus in the appointment by the President
of Mr.. Cridler and Mr.. Howell as assistant
secretaries of state and the treasury, re-
spectively. Better men for the positions
could not have been fouEd, and their ap-
pointments are such q recognition of the
merit system as will prove an incentive
tc every person In the public service. My
intimate relations with Mr.. Howell during
the four years past justify me in saying
that there Is not a better equipped man
than he In the United States for the posi-
ton he fills so well.''
