But how, we may ask can the bee get
drunk on the harmless nectar of the
fiower-a teetotal drink, surely, If ever
there was one?
There appear to be two possible ways in
which this intoxication may occur. Honey,
we know, varies greatly n quality, some
being even poisonous. When the soldiers
OF Xenophon ate the honey found in the
country of the Colchians, those who had
taken only a little were like men very
drunk those who had taken much were
like madmen. This result was attributed
to the fact that the honey had been gath
cred from rhododendron flowers. And
certain honey found in the Caucasus Is
reputed to have an intoxicating effect on
those who eat it, Douglas Freshfeld

havior of one Of his men when travelling

WHY HE STAYS AT HOME.
A Man to Whom the Summertime in
 Phoenix Is a Harvest

It has been a custom of great many Phoenix people to flee the town every summer, taking away thousands of dollars, none of which ever come back. Most of the fugitives found refuge in southern California, which came to regard spendthrift Arizonans as the most important summer source of revenue, just as eastern tourists were considered the principal winter re- source. Fewer and fewer Phoenic;ans have gone inside" for the last three summers and many who stayed at home and attended to business hoped that the time would come when mo- body would go away.
 A man who has been very success full in business expressed an origiE al view on the subject of the summer hegira ''I have never spent a sum- mer out of Phoenix" said he, flor l discovered five years ago that that is my best season. How do I account for it? I'll explain it to you. You see, everybody who has money and brains goes away. They leave behind a great many people who have money and great many who have brains, but none who have both. There is not SC much intellectual competition here you see, in the summer as in the win ter. So the summer is my harvest and I stay at home and make hay. We fellows who have not so many brains ought to take our outings in mid winter and stay away until summer when the brainier folks go off to the coast again"

 It would be interesting to know if the junta in prOnouncing the war to be inevitable is in possession of in formation which the authorities at Washington have not given out to the American people.
 Mr. Minor is also in receipt of a letter from Col. Polhemus in charge of the New Orleans "Delegacion." It is of three days earlier date than Captain Mahony's letter. It is, how ever, of the same general tenor, only instead of inevitable the words most likely" are used. But a great many things happened, as all the world knows, in three days dating from last Saturday. Enough may have transpired to convert most likely into Inevitable.

WORD FROM THE JUNTA.
A Private Letter to a Phoenix Man
 Giving Assurance of War.

MT. P. Minor yesterday received a letter from Captain Edward P. Ma hony, who with Lieutenant F. c. Cor dier of the Cuban army, left here last Friday for Tucson. In the course of his letter Captain Manony says: q was notified today by the headquar- ters that war was inevitable. I also received from the delegation a dis patch stating that three expeditions had landed safely on the island with 4,000 rifles, 3,O0O,O0O rounds of ammu- milton and four dynamite Hotchkiss guns. This news is authentic as it comes directly from the proper au- thorities, and you can now give as surance to the friends of Cuba in Phoenix that their money is being we'll used in furthering Cubas strug- gle for liberty.
 "They also tell me to tell the Amer ican people that General Gomez will turn over the Cuban army to any American general in case of a war with Spain. General Fitzhugh Lee is the man preferred. This shows where General Gomez and his grand army of liberation stand in the event of a war. His position is strictly Amer ican."
 The Headquarters" to which Cap tain Mahony alludes is the Cuban junta in New York; by the "delega- tion" he means a branch of the junta, probably the Key West branch, which would likely be the first to learn of the successful landing of filibustering expedition. No reports have come to the treasury department of such an expedition, but for that matter the department has seldom heard of fiji busterers unless they happened to get caught 1t is possible that since the
