Conventions Have Started.

The republican state central committee
met Tuesday in Des Moines and called
the first state convention to meet at Des
Moines May 10. This convention is only
to select delegates to the national con-
vention called TO meet at Philadelphia
June 10. 1t will, however, be an inter
esting convention and one we'll worth
attending. Congressman r. G. Cousins is
selected as temporary chairman and will
make the leading speech. That it will
be masterpiece of political oratory goes
without saying, for Cousins has attained
very high rank as national orator.
AS he is a member of the congressional
committee on Foreign Affairs it is ex-
pected that his speech will indicate the
party position on the great international
and constitutional questions relating to
our new possessions. A later state con-
ventiop will be held, perhaps in August,
to nominate the state ticket.
There will be meeting of the repub-
lican county central committee Of this
county in week or two when the date
for county convention will be selected.

An "Americanv Duel.

During my residence in Heidelberg a
lamentable and terrible affair took
place that threw profound gloom
over the university and the entire
town. Two German students, having
quarreled, decided the earth was not
large enough for both of them to live
in and resorted to the diabolical prac-
tice called the american duel"
In darkened room the two young
men drew lots, having sworn that he
who drew the black ball would commit
suicide. The unhappy loser went to
his room and discharged bullet into
his breast, but missed his heart and
fingered for several days on his DEATH
bed. His parents were summoned by
telegraph and besought him on their
knees to disclose the name of his an
tagonist, but he steadfastly refused
and died with the secret in his breast.
The students not only excused his
conduct, but praised his courage, and
when his remains were taken to the
railway station to be transported to a
distant city they accompanied the fu-
neral cortege with torches and music.
The students claimed he was not sui
eide, for he was killed in an honorable
sduel, and they maintained that his OPP
ponent was not accessory to his death
because he shot himself. l had many
arguments with them and never could
convince them of their extraordinary
tergiversation.-

the floor. One of the men sprang out

Fool the Bee. and the People.


"People buy comb honey" said q
man from the country, believing that
the fact that 1t is sealed by the honest
little bee precludes the possibility Of
fraud. The fact is that the bees of
many professional honey raisers do
nothing the uvelong summer but pack
glucose into their hives from an open
barrel that is left standing close by.
The bee will not search fragrant flow
ers the livelong day for a trifing
amount of pure honey when he can get
glucose. The honey men see that there
is plenty of glucose handy, and instead
Of one pound Of pure honey they aid
the bees in putting ten pounds Of glu-
cose on the market.
Human ingenuity has not devised q
way for making and sealing the honey
comb, or the bee would be dispensed
with altogether. In handling the glu-
cose the bees give 1t honeyish flavor.
and If you complain to the bee man
that II Is not as sweet and sticky as 1t
shoulG be he will tell you that 1t is the
early crop and that the heavy rains
make II thin.
II Know man who keeps 80 hives
of bees on the roof Of his store In the
city, and by hustling up plenty Of glu-
cose he gets enough honey out of the
buzzing slaves TO do a wholesale bust
ness in honey. Why, his bees never
saw flower and would shy at hon.
eysuckle II they happened to come near
one. He will not even let the poor
things have a recess to get a drink Of
water, but keeps pan Of fresh water
near the hives for them to drink
