nse. Carrx Marset Baskets.

Every bee carries his market bas- ket round his hind legs. Anyone ex- amining the body of bee through 9 microscope will observe that on the hind legs of the creature there is a fringe of stiff hairs on the surface, the hairs approaching each other at the tips, so as to form sort of cage. This is the bees basket. and into it, after a successful journey, he will cram enough pollen to last him for two or three days.

 A Piece of Latin.

4 story is told of former mayor of Birmingham, England, that he gave orders to have his robes of office lined with "vermin." When the late Alder man Surge was mayor he received a royal command to dine and sleep at Windsor. This of course meant court dress and sword. The court dress was reluctantly submitted to, but as mem Der of the Society of Friends, and, moreover, one who had greatly dlstln- guished himself in the cause of peace, for he had formed one of the peace deputation to the czar before the out break of the Crimean war, MT. Sturge would not consent to wear lethal weapon. A compromise was happily effected. A scabbard and hilt or the usual kind were at his worship's slde when the presentation to royalty took place. but the sword was mere lath of wood. Fortunately the worthy Quaker was not called upon to draw ID defense of his sovereign.

A New Ruskin Story.

A characteristic new Ruskin story. the accuracy of which is vouched for by the Bookman. is as follows: A cer- tain person in this country sent a friend of his in England an American edition of Rusk!n's works. They were seized by the customs authorities, of course, and were in peril of confisca- tion, when the cons1gnee learned that if he could procure letter from Mir Ruskin allowing ehe books to pass into England the customs wou'd re- lease them. Accordingly letter Of request was sent to MT. Ruskin, who replied promptly and with character istic verye as follows: Sir do not see that your friends desire to give you a present at Ey expense is any apology for your intrusion upon me. Yours, etc, John Puskin." The books came back to America, but in spite of very tempting offers the recipient Of Mir. Ruskin's curt reply refuses to part with the autograph.

The raxan,.tor a Success.

Tae statement is confidently made that tLe taxameter, or cab-tare indic cater. will quickly be introduced in all the civilized cities of the world. It appears that in both Berlin and Lon- don. where the taXameter has been adopted, it has been as popular with the "cabby" as with the flare. The reason of this surprising fact is that this system of automatiG fare indiea, tion effectively and permanently in creases the number of fares. Many parsons object to ride in cabs because of the possibility of an altercation with the driver as to the amount or the fare when the trip is ended. Ali that is put at an end by the taxame- ter, which shows, iu plain sight, the distance traversed and the fare to be paid. Consequently more persons are riding in cabs today than ever rode before, and the increase in the number of fares is looked upon as permanent, The taxameter also enables the pro- prietor to control and check the daily receipts and efficiency of the vehicle or the distance covered by it. More over. since the apparatus calculates the fare on the basis of the distance covered, the driver earns his money quicker according to the rate at which he drives, a system equally profitable and agreeable to both passenger and driver. It is said that the cab pro- DrietOr who has once introduced fha fare indicator can and may no longer conduct his business without it. In Berlin, where the taxameter introduc- ton at first was strongly opposed by masters and men, $500 of the citys $500 first-class cabs are now fitted with tEem. The cab proprietors pay t1.25 month fov each instramant.

A Hymn as 2 Rnnnuat.

Iought m the civil War, there was no lack of merrymaking among the com rades of the hard campaigns. Squads of them at the different posts met in military quarters and frolicked half the nighc away It was at one of these assemblies of the officers of an army corps domiciled in a Southern capital that the following incident occurred. They had come toge for "a grand old reunion high" to celebrate their victories, swap stories,o and 4rink each others healths before sepa. 8sing to go back to Gods country" as they called the North. The supply of liquors was plentiful, the supper-room was full of the smoke of burning cigars; the stories kept the laughter loud, and the songs called out every voice in enthu- siastic chorus. The best vocalist in Fhe company, a fine young tenor had been repeatedly appealed to for solo, out although he seemed quite as ioyial as the rest, it was far along in the festivities before he could be induced to sing.
 Come, Harry. pipe up, old fellow. give IS one of your best, and the importantly became too strong to re- sist.
 That an undertide of different emo ton had been gathering power within him, and that Harry was not the only person in the room who had been hiding a sober thought, was very soon evident.
 Well, boys, I'll sing for you," he said at last.
 The noise ceased at once, for most of those present had many times en, 1oyed his charming voice. He began She tender melody of Franz Apt, When the Swallows Homeward Fly" " but instead of the expected lines his astonished listeners caught the words of Charles Wesley-the immortal hymn-prayer which has been so effec- lively set to that favorite tune. He eang with touching pathos. His com rades did not attempt to overcome the contagion of his feeling.
 Jesus, lover of my soul,
 Let me to thy DOSOm ny.
 What a scene, and what surround ings for such a song! Cigars were dropped, and lifted glasses were quietly set down. Surprised faces became con- vulsed unexplained sympathy. The men thought of the dear old homes they were soon to see, and every mSv- ing memory came back Before the singer ended there were tears on many weather-beate cheeks. One rough cavalryman silently gathered up an armful of bottles, crept on tiptoe to the window, and threw them out Another and another, till willing hands had helped clear the tables of every sign of liquor Voices that had a tremor in them said, Sing us another, Harry" and the comrades finished their feast with choruses of gospel hymns.
 We gather these facts from the story. "A Song in the Night" by MT. Will liam o. Stoddard, in the Christian En- dea1 or World "It was pretty dark spiritually in the army at the close of the civil war" says Mr. Stoddard; but the above incident tells how surely swift touch of the magic of real re- ligious power will bring mems holier feelings to light. and turn their frivol- ity into reverent and serious joy.

erous in FL Paso and increasing rapid
ly and the time ripe for a commercial
club to take hold and push the inter-
ests of the town.
In his opinion lawyers, doctors and
all citizens interested in the welfare Of
the town should be invited to join the
club and its platform made broad
enough for all of them to island upon
(applause.)
MIR. KOHLBERG' S IDEA.
E. Kohlberg stated that in his opin-
ion each subscriber should pay $50 per
share for stock, with dues of 81 per
month.
He made this as motion and argued
in favor of it to some length.
The motion was seconded and caused
considerable discussion.
DR.. Race contended that a working
committee of three had been appoint
ed and urged that all details should be
left to them and he believed they were
quite capable of carrying out the pur-
pose of the meeting.
The chairman declared DR.. Races

point we'll taken and ruled Mr.. Kohl
berg out of order.
Mr.. McCutcheon of the committee
asserted that the committee was glad
to hear and receive suggestions and the
committee would be aided materially
by such.
A SECOND DENVER.
T. Q. Lyons responded by saying
that all he possessed was in Ell PasO
and while he was not heavy shipper
he had the interest of the city at
heart.
He commented upon the bright out
look for Ell Paso's future and thought
that the whole business community
would be only too glad to unite in
furthering the interest of the town.
He pointed out that Mr.. Kohlberg's
suggestion would keep out the large
middle class.

ond Denver"
Mr.. Emerson suggested that to re-
quire $50 subscription fee would keep
many out, but claimed that If stock was
issued to be sold in amounts ranging
from SIS to 800, or any larger amount
no one would be shut out.
Judge Hunter proposed that the mat
ter of subscription to stock should be
left for consideration after the com
mittee had reported with what success
it had met.

a committee of three on organization
was appointed.
The chair appointed the following;
A Courchesne, T. H.Springer and W.
S. McCutcheon.
Mr.. McCutcheon made a brief
speech urging all business men to CO
operate, saying that unless they did
the labor of the committee would prove
nothing but drudgery and suggested
that each person desiring to sign the
list should have some fixed place to go
to and sign it and the committee not
be compelled to canvass.
The chair conceded that Mr.. Nc
Cutcheon's remarks were timely.
Mr., McCutcheon moved that the
committee perfect organization ana
leave a roll at each of the three banks
to be signed by business men,
The motion was unanimously adopt
ed.
G. W. Emerson urged that all mer-
chants cooperate. He said that when
the old board of trade existed many
persons who were recipients of conces--
sions from the railroads in the way OF
special reduced rates staid out and for
that reason q thorough canvass should
be made.
Judge Hunter explained that he was
a lawyer and he did not know whether
he was eligible or not, but that he GER
tainly had the interest of Ell Paso at
heart and was deeply interested in the
movement.
At Albuquerque, he said, a CONNER
cisl club had been formed, which bad
devolved into q mere social club. He
hoped Ell Paso would not fall into the
same error. He cited Dunn and Brad
