Some one got a packing box from the
drug store, poured rnolasses in the bottom
of It and placed It handy for the bees, but

Vided A big policeman, seeing the crowd,
seuntered up to find out what was the
trouble. Il was desirable in the interests
of the public safety TO set the bees to
move on, but he didn't know how to go
about It, so he had to remain on duty ana
wait for developments.
Occasionally a venturesome boy would
stir up the pile Of bees, just TO see the
crowd scatter. The bees would settle on
passengers in the open cars as they stop
ped just before crossing Sixteenth street,
and then there would be a picnic. Wo-
men on bicycles ran into the cloud OF IN
sects before they were aware of thelr
danger, and, screeching at every reVolu-
ton. they scorched down the street iran
tic with fear, just because few dozen
harmless bees were tickling them on the
face, neck or arms.
Where the swarm came from or where
they have set out to go was, of course a
mystery. Some farmer around Wheat
land or I4ittleton is probably the loser, and
the owner of the express wagon now mas

wagon bed half full of bees.

and Rhode Island. by vote of its school
children, for the violet. The golden
rod is the favorite in Alabama; the
magnolia in Georgia. and the peach
blossom in Delaware. Southwestern
states are not represented in flowers
to any great extent. Those states in
which complete or limited woman suf-
frage has been established by law are
those who have taken the lead in the
selection of state flowers. Colorado has
the Columbine; Idaho, the syringia;
Montana, the bitter root and Utah, the
sego lily. The state flower of Nebras-
ka is the golden rod, which is like
wise the state flower of oregon. Michi-
gan has adopted the clover, and Kan
sas, the Sunhower state" would nat
urally, one might think, adopt the sun
flower as its favorte, but they do
things different in Kansas" and the
field daisy is the favorite.
The state flower of Minnesota is the
mocCasin flower. New York's prefer
ence for a state flower has been for
several years a matter Of contention.
The rose is the favorite, but on the
vote of the school children of the state
held some years ago the preference for
several varieties of roses led to a sub
division of the vote among these, with
the result that, technically, the golden
rod had the majority and was chosen;
but efforts have been made since to
reverse this declaration of preference
with the result that there are some
who say the golden rod is the favorite
of the Empire state and others who
contend that the rose is entitled to the
distinction. The favorite of New Jer-
sey is the white clover Pennsylvania
has never pronounced in favor of any
flower.

West Market Street Welsh Baptists
Welcome Their New Pastor and
Burn a Mortgage.

The reception tendered Rev. John A.
Evans. the newly elected pastor of the
West Market Street Welsh Baptist
church, last evening in the church
auditorium, was an auspicious ocCa-
sion and despite the inClement wealth.
er the church was thronged. The con-
grcgation had big surprise in store
for their friends when the announce
ment was made. that the mortgage
which had so long been an incumber-
arCe on the church, would be burned
and hereafter be a thing of the past.
The services We're arranged under the
direction of the Young Peoples society
of the church and one of their number,
Mr. Thomas Lewis, was chosen to act
as chairman for the occasion. In open
ing the exercises he delivered an ad-
dress which embodied many thoughts
OF interest TO those assembled.
There was a vocal and literary en-
tertainment of rare interest, partici-
rated in by many of the prominent 10
cal talent. Letters of regret We're read
by the chairman from Rev. Horace
PeckOver and Rev. j. T. Lloyd, of
Wilkes Barre.
The burning of the mortgage in point
of interest, ranked only second to the
reception of the pastor. This duty was
allotted to Lewis Jones and Mrs Dina
Evans, two charter members of the
church, and the oldest now living. MIR.
Jones was called uIUn to deliver an
address which he did and told several
Interesting "reminiscences concerning
the early place oc worship how the
church was finally erected and rebuilt
and how the meniH2rG Of the cDngrega-
tiOn increased from thirty. six charter
members until today it is a liourishing
and progressive body.
The burning of the mortgage then
occurred. MI. Jones he'd the much
despised paper while Mrs. Lvans ap-
piled the match. Soon it was no more
and the last vestge of debt faded from
sight.
Rev. Mr.. Evans then responded to a
call for an address from the chair
man. His remarks We're brief, plain
and outspoken and urged the co-opera-
ton of his congregation in the adj
Vancement of the Churchs welfare.
Talks of three minutes duration were
then made by Rev. DR.. r. r. Jones, of
the Welsh Congregational church; Rev.
w. q. Watkins, of the North Main
Avenue Baptist church; Rev. Mr.. Ellis.
Of Olyphant; Rev. Mr.. Phillips and
Rev. Mr. Rowalo. Each compliment

Each One OF the Comm onwcaIths

ture.
Every one of the forty-five states in
the Union has a motto and a shield,
and some of these notices seem to the
disinterested observer to be somewhat
inappropriate, says the New York Sun.
Nevada for instance. whose popula-
tion is declining steadily and whose in
tluence is yearly growing less, has for
its motto Volens ct Potens CWilling
and Able). Mississippi the only one
of the states which has ever repudi-
ated formally its public debt, has as
its motto Union, Justice and Conf
dence." On the other hand, Wyoming,
has as its motto Let Arms Yield to
the Gown" The motto of Oregon is
she Flies with Her own Wings" the
appositeness Of which does not appear
to be entirely clear for a state whose
foreign commerce and railroad busi-
ness are done through the adjacent
states of California and Washington.
Though all states have notices and
all states have shields, only a small
proportion of the states have flowers,
though all may have them before very
long if the popular demand for flowers
typical of statehood continues to in
crease. The Iowa Legislature at Des
Moines last week adopted the wild rose
as the official flower of the Hawkeye
state. There are forty-five states, but
twelve of them only have official llow-
ers, the selection of which has de-
VolVed in some states upon the legis-
lature, and in others upon the public
school children. Two New England
states only have expressed a prefer
