1t Begins Work When Three Days Old
and Dies at Forty-five.
@. w. Reynolds Of Los Angeles,
one Of the oldest travelling men in the
United States, has ranch of which he
enjoys telling even more than he does
of the experiences through which he
has passed during his half century upon
the road. The ranch is near San Diego,
Cal. The chief product is honey. This
product is gained from two apiaries,
which Mr.. Reynolds visits every time
his business permits him to go to south
ern California.
In my apiaries, which are cared for
by my son., said he, "there are 14O
stand Of bees The honey season lasts
from April to July. Last season my
bees yielded 100000 pounds of honey,
which sells in that country in bulk lots
at cents pound. Two of the hives
gave over 500 pounds each. For ten
years I have been interested y bees in a
small way, and I take greater interest
in them every year. "a hive or stand of
bees is worth So. 80. In it are the queen,
the drones and the workers. total
population of from 10000 to 5000
bees
"This very good sized colony" he
continued, 'resides in hive or wooden
box. In the hive are dozen frames Is
by inches. In these the bees make or
deposit the honey, foundation of wax
having been first placed in each frame
by the beekeeper, so that the bees may
have something to build upon. The
honey is taken out Of the frames every
other week during the honey season.
While doing so there is little need of
protecting the hands. The bees seem to
be most inclined to sting one in the
face. So, as a precaution, the man who
is removing the honey from the hives
wears a straw hat, from the brim Of
which is hung silk veil, like they have
to do up in the Klondike country to
ward off the summer mosquitoes.
''The queen is an absolute monarch
within her dominions. She is the I'M
disputed boss Of the job. An ordinary
bee lives during the working season on
ly 45 days. Young ones are being hatch
ed out all the time. A bee goes to work
at the tender age Of 3 days and hustles
like veteran for AZ days. Then it is
just naturally all tired out, suppose,
for it dies. The queen lives longer, and
when a young queen comes into exist
ence in the hive she drives the sold
queen out. Her loyal subjects follow
her in her Punishment, and that is what
makes the swarm.
''In southern California the bees make
water white honey when the black sage
is in blossom. When the white sage is
Towering, the honey has an amber
tinge. In winter the bees make no hon
ey. Seventy five carloads of the article
are shipped out of San Diego county in
good years. denver Republican.

The Day Passed Without Peace De-
 Yelopments-

Washington, Aug. 3.-Up to 1915 o'clock the French embassy had not received the Spanish response to the American peace terms, though a com munication not definite in character had come to hand. The president shortly after 10 o'clock said he had received unofficial notification that the Spanish government had agreed to our peace terms and is expecting the Spanish reply to be communicated to him aay moment
 At o'clock this afternoon the posi- tive statement was authorized that the Spanish reply to the American de mands had not been received at the French embassy. There has been a considerable number of communica- tions received from the Spanish gov ernment bearing on peace negotia- tions, but nothing in the sense of decisive reply to be communicated to the president and no conference with the president has yet been arranged for by M Cambon. The statement that Spain is expecting a response from the United States is therefore premature.
 At 5 D. n. the president and M Cambon had been in conference for an hour. It is not known whether peace or the captured French vessel is the topic of the discussion.

Chicago, Aug. 3.-Lyman E. Cooley. the well known civil engineer. after I visit east and q conference in New York with representatives of the Maritime Canal company owners of all rights and concessions along the proposed route of the Nicaraguan ca nal, believes the government of the United States will construct the great water way in preference to letting the contract to separate companies or cor oorations. Cooley says on this point the complexion of the Nicaragua canal matter has been changed per ceptibly since last winter, when he with party of engineers looked over the ground. The expense incurred by the government in the war, and rapidly developing indications that the Niearaguan canal cannot only be constructed more cheaply than was at

From the commencing of the Santiago campaign until within @ few days ago, terrible conditions on the coast where our ships had no shel- ter and where there was always a high surf, made the landing of troops. supplies, ammunition, artillery and medical stores very difficult and there is no doubt that much inconvenience and suffering was thereby caused that was unavoidable.

A FLEET WRECKED.
A Lot of River Steamers Come to Grief
 at Sea.

Victoria, B. C., Aug. 3.-The steamer Manuenez arrived this afternoon from St. Miachael's, Alaska, with 160 pas sengers and a large amount of gold dust. The entire Moran fleet of ten river steamers is reported to be wrecked in the Behring sea.
 Much suffering is reported at the mouth of the Yukon among those who are stranded there through lack of river transportation caused by the loss of many river steamers that were be- ing lowed up. To these are added sev- eral thousand who have come down the river in small boats without suf- fcient means to pay fare on the home ward bound steamers. People are leaving Dawson by hundreds, making their way down the river in small boats
