Copper River Indians.

AhW BoNeruuleut Has eXINtuUNi enormous sums of money upon the American Indians, for whom army officers recommend extermi- nation as the onfy effective method of making them good Indians. The Apache and Sioux have been a detriment to vast, sections of the States.
 The government has done so much for these worthless tribes, why does it not help the Copper river Indians. who are really wor- thy 6f assistance. When the white man first came to the Copper river he found the natives honest, truth full and virtuOus. He could leave his cache anywhere, unguar,lc,l. and the natives would nat modest it. There are instances where In- dians found articles washed down the river from the wreck of some prospectOr's boat and went miles to find the owner and return his property. -.e.
 The alorigincs of the interior show intelligence. They resemble the Japanese in their desire to learn, and are extremely proud of their accomplishments when they have mastered the alphabet.
 Before the advent of the white man, mmse and cariboo. although not abundant, existed in sufficient quantities to help feed them through the winter. Now they are very scarce. During the summer the natives are busy catching salmon. to be dried for the winter. This supply has been cut down in the last few years, by the cannerics at the mouth of Copper river, t. such an extent tl.at the Indians do not catch enough to last through the long winter.
 ScaHtily dressesl, with. little to eat, ina country where the climate is severe, it is only a matter of q few years until the entire tribe will die out. What is really needed, is to have the government send q teacher among them, to instruct them how. to live, how tO raise veg etables and grain for io,sl, how to provide for the winter and clothe themselves.
 The death rate this winter has been heavy when VIC consider the small number in the tril9. Twenty have died since October I, and during last summer there were eight deaths.

AN OBSERVATORY HIVE.
The Quickest and Best Way TO Learn
the Bee Business

+. G. Herman, who is an authority
there is 10 way in which 50 much
practical knowledge can be obtained
about bees as by observing them work
ing in a normal way through the glass
sides of an observatory hive. You will
gee the field bees coming in with their
loads Of nectar ana pollen and deposit
ing them in the cells, the nurse bees
feeding the larvae and the comb build
ers making comb. You may also OBJ
serve the queen in her arduOus duty Of
laying two and even three eggs per
minute Mr. Herman therefore tells in
The Farm journal how to make such
hive:
If you are using in your yard nova
BILE frame hive, the matter is simple
enough. Make the two end pieces, the
bottom and cover the same length and
height as the hives in your yard, but
only wide enough for three frames of
comb. Five inches inside measurement
is about right. The sides should be
made out OF good. clear window glass.
This constitutes the body of the hive
See Fig. /.
The lower cut in Fig. = is a tube
which is connected 10 the body at Il,
which will be explained little further
on. c in the first figure is piece of tin
that holds the tube in place. The bees
enter the tube at A and crawl through
the tube into the hive. The tube is
made two and a half inches wide and
half an inch high, inside measurement,
and about twenty inches long, or lon
ger II necessary. The upper cut in Fig.
2 is the hive cover, which has hole in
the center two and half inches in di-
ameter covered on the underside with
wire netting. This hole is for two pur-
poses. If the bees need feeding, a pint
fruit jar can be filled with sirup, then
covered with one thickness Of cheese.
cloth and inverted right on the wire,
and the bees will do the rest The other
purpose is to ventilate the hive in very
warm weather. This hole should at
other times be covered with a small
block.
OF course it would be useless to put
swarm of bees into glass hive, for

dark hive suits them better. About six
days after you have had q swarm 20
TO the parent hive you will find num-
Der of ripe queen cells from which
queens will emerge In day or two.
Take three frames of Matching brood,
with one or more queen cells. covered
with adhering bees, and place them in
the hive. Put on the cover and carry
to the porch of your dwelling or other
suitable place and adjust your hive in
position Some Of the old bees will
leave, but those that are Matching will
make il their home.
For best results il is necessary to
have on the porch a vine of some sort
for Il screen. HOneysuckle trained on
chicken wire makes a splendid network

ZONES Ihat Way.

A young minister who was naturally
OF shy disposition was rather embar,
rassed at his first marriage ceremony
and unwittingly reversed the usual
order Of the service, thus making the
bridegroom promise to love and obey
his blushing bride. The error passed
unnoticed at the time, but shortly aft
erward 1t dawned upon the father of
the bride that Il mistake had occurred
and he said to the minister:

Coincidence stamps.

The postottice department has "con-
science fund" Of its own. Not at all un-
usual is it for people to use a poorly
Cancelled stamp and then TO regret
cheating the government out of cents.
In order to secure peace of mind the ,
cent culprit will send good stamp to
the department with an anonymous e1-
PLANTATION. This stamp is turned over
to an official Of the files and mails di-
vision, who pastes it on a large card
and draws a couple Of pen marks
across it. The effect would be just as
good if the repentant Cancelled the
stamp himself.
