A Fabel With a Moral

1t is said that when the bee first
started in business she had no singer
and was compelled to take all sorts Of
back talk from other insects because
she wasn't able to help herself. And
the bee growing weary of this sort of
business applied to Jubiter to let her
have a double.acting rapid. firing sting.
er, saying that she would surprise a
few ducks who had been in the habit
of guying her heretofore Then Jubi.
ter, who had a stock of singers on
hand, brought out n and fastened IL
on the bee, but at the same time said;
"My ambitious female, l will give you
this singer as you request, but l have
fixed it so you can use it but once
You can sock it in your enemy in good
shape but the act will cost you your
life. Thus will you be punished for
your desire to crafty your spirit of re.
vrnge.' The bee, who vas a honey
bee, took the singer and wen away
sad. After she had gone a few min.
ates a bumblebee came sailing in aud
presented a similar request to Jubiter.
"All right" sand Jubiter, 'here's the
stock | have on hand. Come in and
pick out a jabber to suit Yourself"
| Then the bumblebee picked out a
double.action patent.reversible singer
about the length of a fork tine and said
he would take that. Then Jubiter
fastened il onto the bumblebee and
proceeded to give him the same sort OF
a talk he had given the honey bee. The
bumblebee listened, saying not a word,
but turning to Mercury who vas stand
ing by, he softly wicked his other eye,
When the singer was fastened on the
bumblebee started as il to fly away
but when Jubiter's back was turned
the bumblebee su idenly lit on the back
of the boss gods neck and said "My
noble maker of thunder, unless yor

A matter which has given the adj.
ministration a great deal of trouble
and which threatened To cause more or
less scandal before it was disposed of
appears TO have been disposed of by an
opinion of the attorney general, given
at the request of the secretary of war,
that neither the secretary of war or
the president has any authority To
grant perpetual concessions of a public
nature in Porto Rico. The attorney
general takes the ground that previous
to the treaty Of peace with Spain tn g
privilege of granting such concession
was exclusively that Of the Spanish
crown, aud that by the treaty 1t passed
TO the United States and can now only
be disposed Of by congress. There is
some dissatisfaction among those who
expected to get profitable concessions,
because of this opinion, but it is very
safe TO say that it Is not shared either
by the president or new secretary OF
war, both of whom are very glad to
escape the task of deciding who should
have the conct ssious sought for.
