BEES IN THE BATHROOM.
fully Supplied with n Table
Luxury.

A colony OF honey bees in north
west Baltimore has invaded a dwell
ing house and cannot be induced to go
elsewhere. This colony, says tho Bal
timore American, which has thou
sands of members, has preempted for
its own use a part of the dwelling oc'
cupied by T.. j. Goldman.
/ When that gentleman moved into
the house, several years ago, he no.
ticed that large number Of bees col
| lected around the windows of tho
bathroom, on the second floor, and, on
observing them closely, he saw THAI
they came out and went in the open
ing in the house wall through which
the pipe from the bathtub ran. He
concluded that there was a hive some
where in the vicinity of the bathroom,
and, on cutting out small section of
the flooring, he found in the vacant
space under the floor and between the
joists on which the flooring rested
what seemed to him a million bees,
with a large amount OF honey.
Tubs and large pans were brought
into requsition to hold the honey.
The honeycombs stood at right angles
to the joists. They were an inch in
thickness and about ten inches
square. The squares of honeycomb,
set on edge side by side, completely
filled the space between the beams.
To take them 1t was only necessary to
detach them at each side from the
beam and lift them out. Dhe mem
bers Of the family had all the honey
they wanted, and it was freely distrib-
uted to neighbors and friends.
The "robbing" took place In the
fall. A small amount was left for the
bees to subsist upon. Mr.. Goldman
thought it would be better TO trans
fer the bees to a hive and take them
out OF the house. There were some
disadvantages connected with their
presence in the bathroom now, espe-
cially since the hole had been bored
In the floor TO get at them. The chill
dren could enter the room and take
the bees up from their places by the
double handful and smooth them
along their laps with their hands, but
the workers OF the colony were OPP
posed TO certain members of the fam
lily and stung them whenever they got
a chance That was why Mr.. Goldman
desired to put them in a hive In the
yard
The hive was prepared, and an effort
was made to induce the bees to enter
it, but the effort was not a success.
1t brought about schism in the col
ony, however, and nearly all the bees
went away. During the blizzard last
February the colony that remained
beneath the bathroom persisted, and
Mr.. Goldman thought he had gotten
rid OF the bees.
About a year after the exodus Of the
bees n swarm that seemed larger than
the one that had gone away returned
to the Harlem avenue house and reoc.
cupied their old quarters. While en-
terinR through the aperture In the
wall the bees swarmed about the
waste pipe and formed a bundle about
as large as half bushel basket. They
have remained there ever since, Sup
plying the family with honey at inter
walls

CHINAMAN AND TELEPHONE,
The CelestinIs Have Frequent Re-
course to the Instrument and
with Good Results.

In circumstances where the tele-
graph is debarred from the direct con-
veyance of word symbols, the tele-
phone enters with peculiar value, says
Flame, Electricity and the Camera,
Until Prof Bell perfected this inven-
ton Chinaman was denied by the
structure of his language any imme-
date transmission of it by electricity.
Chinese has no alphabet, and it's writ
ten signs are so numerous and intricate
as to defy reduction to simple tele-
graphic code. Two methods proffered
themselves; first, to translate a Chi
nese message into an alphabetical
tongue, telegraph this, and at the re-
oeiving station run the risk Of error In
original Morse method, giving a num-
Der to each word in dictionary, and
telegraphing numerals, to be matched
as received with their appropriate
Specification.
With the telephone all this hazard
and trouble vanish at once. A China
man speaks his message; it is received
exactly as spoken, either by his cor
respondent or his correspondents
scribe. Louis Glass, of the Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph company,
San Francisco, states that his COM
pany has a subs station in San Francis
co, employing three Chinese attend
ants. Their eiaculatory language
gives peculiarly good telephone re-
suits. The Chinese do very large long
distance business throughout the
whole Pacific coast, and apparently
with more satisfactory results than

FORCED DRAFT.
Methods Employed for Increasing
the Speed of the Great Ocean
Steamships.

OF the various methods of forced
draft, two have had the greatest vogue;
that where the fire room is closed and
the air forced into it, and that where
the fire room is open but the ash pit is
closed, either in the simple form or
as part of the casing over the boiler
front, the air in either case being
forced into the ash pit and into casing
around the furnace door and thence
over the fire. A modification of this lat
ter form, with considerable elabora-
ton for the purpose of heating the air
forced in, is the system of Mr.. Howden,
which has probably been used more ex-
tensively than any other in merchant
vessels, and is used almost exclusively
to-day in the express steamers of all
the great mail lines, says the Engineer
ing Magazine.
The system in which the fire room is
closed and the air forced in-then act
ing just as in the case of natural draft
is the one which has been used most
in the naval service, for the reason that
it requires the fewest fittings and gen
orally speaking is the simplest. In ali
war vessels the boilers are below the
protective deck in any event, so that it
requires very little additional struc-
tural work in the way of bulkheads to
provide for placing the fire room under
pressure.
The system by induced draft or sue
ton has been used to some extent, and
quite SUCCESSFULLY; but its use does not
compare in extent with the other two
already mentioned, and for the purpose
of this article it need not be further
considered.
