SPY FOOLS THE sPANIARDs.
Special Government Agent OF Unieed
states Sees C~RRra's Fleet
Depart.

Diplomats and military and naval
men are talking of little else now than
of the remarkable exploits of United
States spy who was lionized in Madrid
and Cadiz. and even dined with Ad-
miral Camara before the now cele-
brated ..Suez canal squadron" sailed
from Cajiz.
This spy. or confidential agent OF
the United States government was \
West Pointer, holding commission as
captain of the Second Texan rangers.
His true name has not been disclosed.
In Madrid he was Fernandez Del
Campo. He arrived in Madrid seven
or eight weeks ago in the guise OF >
wealthy Mexican gentleman. He hired
n suite of rooms on the first floor in
the finest hotel of the Spanish capital
and was soon a great favorite in So
ciety, and was known. by reputation at
least. in every Madrid drawing-room.
Fernandez Del Campo spent month
between Cadix, the dock yards at Car
raca and the arsenal of San Fernando.
He stayed in Cadiz for day or two
after the departure Of Camara's
squadron. He witnessed this event on
board one of the admiralty 8 launches.
One morning three Spanish gentle
men were walking uD and down in
front. of the Hotel de Paris as Z they
were waiting for somebody They
were detectives sent to arrest him. \
week later he was in Tangier speaking

NANAGEMENT on BEES
Anyone Nay Succeed with TheA -
Taking Advantage Of Their /
Weak Points.

Scarcely anyone is incapable Of
handling and controlling bees. It is
simply a mistaken idea of some people
that bees have . special dislike for
them and that only certain individuals
can handle bees, says A. II. Duff in the
Epitomist. 1t il only necessary to
know how to handle bees for anyone
II succeed with them. To handle bees
properly it is not necessary to go to
war with them, but absolutely wrong.
II we should undertake to fight col
ony Of bees into subsection the fight
would continue until the last bee OF
the hive was dead, providing we held
out that long ourselves.
Bees can only be handled success
fully by kind treatment. and by study
ing their habits and becoming well
informed Of their nature and mode Of
doing things. Anyone may succeed
with them by taking advantage of
their weak points. Smoke is the con-
trolling agent to be adopted in hand
ling bees. BY smoking bees they be-
come excited and will at once proceed
10 I'll themselves with honey, and
when thus fille1 are perfectly peace
able and will allow themselves to be
abused, robbed and even killed with
out Offering any resistance. The Cy-
prian bees are the only ones I ever
had that at times would resist smoke,
and in order to handle them have
used simply kind treatment and care
ful manipulation and fully succeeded.
II we but take the time we may handle
any colony of bees without the aid
Of smoke by careful manipulation il
we get well acquainted with their ma
ture and habits.
If you are afraid of bees you win not
get along with them very well, and the
greater fear the less success you will
have. The fear of bee stings keeps
many from engaging in bee culture.
This reason to the practical apiarist
appears very foolish indeed. You may
say that bees sting persons whether
they are afraid of them or not. This
may be tr1e to some extent. but l am
satisfied that fear causes almost 90
per cent. of all stings received. Bees
seem to dislike all rapid-moving OBJ
jects. You may walk slowly through
the apiary and not bee will moiest
You. but, On the other hand. IL you
pass rapidly among them some Of the
bees are likely to follow you, and
hence your actions have much to do
with it.

bravery. William L. English, of In

that state, bore himself as only man

He is the SON of William H. English,

in bark and crevices, sending down

SELECTION OF CATTLE.


Perhaps never before in the histsry
of Canada has there been such de-
mand for stockers as during the last
year. While American buyers have
taken large numbers to consume their
enormous corn crops. Canadian farm
ers, as they are learning the art OF
producing cheap feed in the form OF
ensilage and the like. are. more than
formerly, anxious to secure thrifty
consumers of the same. In the last
year or two, many have bought stock
ers for the first time, and some, at
least, have learned lessons upon selee-
tion of feeders that, while expensive
Mt first. may prove profitable in the
end. The great increase in dairying
has led to the more general use OF
dairy-bred bulls, and from these hun

grove of fruit trees, according to re-

herd of cows is to the Pennsylvania
farmer. Other products are guava,
corr. wheat, bananas, figs and arrow
root. Fish is found in great profusion
in the thousands of lagoons with which
the islands are dotted, and can be
caught without seine or hook. Nature,
in fact has been so bountiful that man
can support himself absolutely with
out work. apG that accounts for the
proyerbial inIoience of the natives.
Another Pacific group belonging to
Spain which may be ours before long
are the Carolines, with an area of $50
square miles and population of 10000
souls. The Carolines are divided into
three groups, the eastern, western and
central. Spain originally claimed all.
but few years ago Germany grabbed
the Marshall islands, and has held them
ever since. The central, or main group.
which still belongs to Spain, comprises
4S smaller groups, or total of 400 or
500 islands. Among the products of the
Carolines are rice, corn, wheat, sugar,

a year later he was transferred to the
Brooklyn, and was at the lombard
ment and passage of Forts Jackson
and St. Philip, Chalmette batteries and
the capture of New Orleans. He was
also in the attack ON Vicksburg, in
June, 1862.
On September s, 1863, he was pro-
noted to ensign, and on February %,
1854, WAS commissioned as lieutenant,
when he was ordered to the steam war
ship Susquehanna in the North At
lantic blockading squadron. On this
vessel he was at the bombardment Of
Fort Fisher, in December, 1864, and
was one of the leaders of the assault
ing party at the capture Of that fort
in January, 1865. when his conduct ex-
cited favorable comment. He was
promoted to lieutenant commander on
July 25, 1866, and continued ON sea
duty until early in 1867, when he was
ordered to the naval academy as one
of the instructors. In 1869 he went on
a special cruise on the frigate Sabine,
after which he was ordered to the
Tehuantepec and Nicaragua surveying
expedition, upon which he served near
ly two years. Following this he was
detailed to special duty in the ord
nance department, Boston. Mass;
photographic office, Washington, and
bureau Of equipment at Washington;
later he was in charge of the hydro
graphic bureau from 1882 to 1888; COM
nlanded the coast survey steamer

til May. 1898, when he was ordered to
the command of the Atlantic. His pro-
motion to commander was on April 25,
1877, and to captain July i. 1892. He
was put on the retired list on July 12,
