4 Great Landowner.

A tourist was being driven over 4
part of the country in Ireland where his
internal majesty appeared to have given
his name 70 all the objects Of interest
in the locality, for there was the Dew
lis bridge, the DEVILS caldron, the
Devils glen, etc. Said the traveller:
The devil seems to be the greatest
landowner in these parts -
"Ah, sure, Your honor" replied the
jarvey, THAT is so, but he lives in Eng
land. l think he's what they call an
absentee landlord in Ireland "-London

THE QUEEN BEE
She Is the Foundation, the Life and Soul
OF n Hive Colony.


a queen bee is essential TO the colony.
| She is readily picked out, but by close
observer by her great length. She lives
generally for about five years, but her
term of life varies III different individ-
uals from two TO five or six and in rare
instances even 10 seven years. a queen
is fed with the daintiest and best all
| though her embryo stage, and when
matched comes out a full queen. If any
other queen is hatched-and sometimes
one or two more are, pretty soon after
the rightful ruler assails the rival claim
ant in a life and death battle, the
''stinger'' being piled vigorously like a
death dealing sword by both contestants,
while the hive looks on in mute interest
TO see the issue of the battle. This is al
most decided in favor of the assailant.
She is then the undisputed queen and
is so regarded. Yet the great company
of workers are in some senses the real
governors, and the hive is a great social
democracy. If by any mischance the
queen is killed, then the worker"
who are undeveloped females-go to
work TO produce a new one. The egg
they select for the trial is attended to
with the same care, and the embryo bee
is fed with the same selected food, rs in
the case of the egg that had produced
the legitimate queen. 1t makes a queen,
and she serves i'll that capacity.
Except in swarming time, the queen
never leaves the hive, only on the one
occasion of her bridal tour. Selecting
some one for her husband, she invites
him out to go with her-and their con-
nubial relations are carried ON entirely
while ON the wing III the air-like the
chimney swallows. The bridegroom
never returns. He drops dead, and the
queen returns from her one and only
aerial excursion fully formulated bee
ready to begin her great life work of
egg laying Some days she will lay as
many as 1900 eggs; in all, about 90, 900
eggs.
In 'swarming'' large part of the
whole crowd goes out They leave be-
hind the remains of the old colony,
which had grown TOO numerous, thus
compelling the ''swarming'' or seeking
new home by great part of the hive.
The queen goes with the syvarmcrs, and
here they follow closely. If she alights
on a branch or other place, they all set
tie there, clinSing closely together i'll a
great mass, by mucn the same netnOd
as a mass of burdock burs will stick to-
gether, and the farmers wife and ''all
hands" used to bang away on tin pans
to govern tho movements of the swarm
by fright if possible
So close does the swarm follow the
queen that when once i'll flying over Il
lake the queen became weary and drop
ped into the water every bee went down
with her TO death by drowning. New

THAT CORNER STOWE.

Advices from Helena are to the effect
that a hitch has ccurred in the matter
of laying the corner stone Of the state
capitol July 4th. 1t appears that Rev.
Father Day, acting on behalf of the
Catholics in Montana, has called upon
Governor Smith and requested him to
rescind the invitation extended to the
Masonic brotherhood to conduct the cere-
monials Oil hat occasion.
It is claimed by those in sympathy with
the course pursued by Father Day "that
to invite the Masons to lay the corner
stone of the capitol building is in viola
ton of the constitutional provision that
no preference shall be given to any de-
nomination or mode of worship" In sup
port of this idea the ceremonials of the
brotherhood are cited to show that they
constitute a form of worship.
The question raised is a new one in
Montana, and will doubtless excite a great
deal Of discussion in religious and lodge
circles. No doubt there will be a wide
difference of opinion expressed as to
whether the Masonic order is a religious
or secular body. when adjudged from the
standpoint of it's aims, objects and cere-

monials. and whether, if a religious body,
it comes within the constitutional inhibi-
ton referred to. Custom has so long ac-
credited masonry with the function of
cornerstone laying that the raising of
an objection cannot fail to elicit wide
spread comment.
Though Governor Smith had already
extended to the Masons an invitation to
take charge of the exercises on the
Fourth. it is not known at this time
whether he will rescind the invitation in

COMING HOME.

1t is gratifying to learn that transports
home the volunteers who have been doing
such valient work in the Philippines. To
them is chiefly due the magnificent vic
tories that have followed in quick sue
cession to the ultimate undoing of the
rebel cause. Yesterdays battle at San
Fernando was in all probability the last
engagement of note in which the volun-
teers will participate.
1t is BETTING the splendid record they
hav made to LAY it rounded out with
a rebel repulse. where the enemy had
modelled for the last effective demon
stration of the war. Practically speak
ing, the volunteers We're in at the grand
control of the Philippines. 1t is not at all
unlikely that a guerrilla warfare may for
some time be maintained by Aguinaldo's
men. and possibly the regulars may find
plenty Of employment in the field be-
times. but as such matters go the rebels
have doubtless made their last concern
trated effort to overcome the American
forces.
Throughout the entire campaign in the
Philippines, from the inception of HOSTILE
ties to yesterdays battle, the royal fight
ers Of the First Montana have ever been
in the thickest Of the fray. They will re-
turn from the tropics veterans Of one Of

Their patriotism, their valor, their UNI
equalled courage, and their phenomenal
endurance under the blistering rays of an
equatorial sun, are enduring monuments
to their credit that for all time to come
will embellish the history of the Filipino
war.
The great heart of Montana pulsates
with new warmth as grey hope grows
green and a long deferred welcome to hel
returning sons freshens into realization
The boys will soon return. The war de-
partment has so stated. Let the home.
coming heroes be accorded a royal vel
come. While there are vacant chairs t,

tears, let the living be made to feel tina
