house. The discovery made no par
ticular impression on him until the
other day, when one of them stung
him.
Hot water was thereupOn procured
and the spot whence the bees issued
was deluged with it, but hot water
was failure so far as concerns the
determination of the bees. So were
other devices for circumventing in
sect marauders in the homes of men.
While Mr.. Clements was still hot
upon the trail of the bees another
member of the family came into con-
tact with one of the small disturb
ers, and after a brief struggle, al
though the bee was destroyed, a
couple of pieces of furniture were
sacrificed and the happiness of the
family was disturbed.
That night carpenters were sent
for, and upon the day following there
was a sound of loud hammering and
ripping and tearing of wood. Mr..
Clements, from another part of the
house, directed the attack.
The worEmen tore away a couple
of partitions and then discovered
that a whole swarm of bees had
taken up its abode there. Many had
perished, but still there was a large.
active contingent, and they resisted
the intrusion. But sweet were the
fruits of victory.
Honey! bushels of it," shouted
one of the carpenters, tearing into
the room where Mr.. Clements was
sitting.
Further investigation, after the
bees had been driven away, showed
the presence of 80 pounds of deli
cious honey. 1t cost Mr. Clements
$1s5 to put his house in repair.

BIG SQUAW AUCTION.
Annual Sale of Brides by the Co
Manche Indians.
Amy Parker, Daughter of Noted
Chief, Sold to Wild Horse for 63
Ponies - Other Maidens Also
Brought Good Prices.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean writes that the annual
distribution of Comanche Indian
brides has just occurred at the Saddle
Mountain mission, in southern Okla
hOma. Fifty of the prettiest women
of the tribe were sold at public auc-
tiOn as the wives of tribesmen who
bid them in. This barbaric custom
was to have been discontinued by the
COmanches last year, but it went on
more boldly than ever this season, be-
ing conducted under the very eyes of
the white settlers.
The festival of the COmanche pony
smoke" as this ceremony is called, is
of more than passing interest. Sell
dom are so many young squaws auc-
toned off as was done this year, but
the surplus was great and needed
thinning out, according to the head
men of the tribe. Their parents, re-
fusing TO keep them any longer, the
girls naturally needed homes some
where, and it was deemed best by the
medicine men to auction them off as
wives, the highest bidders to take
their choice. Big Bow, a monstrous
fat and ugly redskin. acted as the
auctioneer. He was assisted by a
number of medicine men, who per-
formed the marriage ceremonies after
the sales had been made.
Five hundred Indians gathered at
the Saddle Mountain mission. This
mission is located 30 miles directly
south of Mountain View, and on the
range of the Wichita mountains. The
girls who were sold had been confined
in a lodge for three weeks prior to
this meeting, and were well fed and
extremely well groomed. They were
all clad in gay cOlors. and their hair
arranged in perfect Indian fashion.
1t was plain to see that their parents
had prepared them to bring fancy
prices. The girls were in various

hut Owner of the House Didn't Know
IL Until the Busy Insects Began
To sting Him.

For some time past bees have been
annoying the family of James r.
Clements, of Rochester, n. Y. Every
day or so a bee would crawl out of
the opening made for one of the slid
ing doors between the sitting-room
and the parlOr. Lazily poising itself,
the bee would fly about the room IN
til its career was cut short by a
slap from the palm of MIR. Clements
or somebody else in the house. But
another bee would come forth to
take the place of the slaughtered
one.
1t finally dawned upon Mr.. Glenn
ents that he was keeping bees in his

moods; some hysterical, others calm
and not a few delighted with the ex-
perience.
Among others was daughter of the
famous Quahnah Parker, the noted
Comanche Indian chief. This daugh-
ter. whose name is Amy. had dis
pleased him by attempting to run
away and marry a white man. and a
cowboy at that, so Parker decided
that the best thing would be to sell her
at auction. This is the first time that
Parker. who Is counted by his white
neighbors highly cultivated red
man, has ever allowed any of his IeIa-
tives to be sacrificed at the auction
block, But the wrath Of an Indian
parent knows No hounds.
Sad and silent, Amy Parker was led
to the block for sale The rirst bid was
II ponies. Jack Wild Horse. a we'll
known scout Of the tribe. was the bid
der. He was Immediately raised by
rival, likewise a scout. This latter
claimant bid IS. Others then cut in.
and Miss Parker was run up to 50
ponies. Her face grew pale when she
saw that Wild Horse was determined
to get her, as he is known as the most
desperate savage on the reservation
when drunk and angered. 1t is said
that he has killed three wives when
drunk. Wild Horse. however. won the
Young squaw for Sc ponies. The stock
was turned over to Parker. and a med
icine man married Wild Horse and the
squaw, according TO the COmanche
rites. The couple then went to Fl
Reno. where a regular marriage IL
cense was issued to them and the cere-
mony repeated by pale-face minis
ter. Although the marriage took
place only three days ago. a dispatch
from LawtOn saws that she ATTEMPTED
to commit suicide after failing in an
attempt to kill her new husband.
Other young women objected quite
as strongly as Miss Parker did to be-
ing auctioned of. hut it did them no
good whatever. Big Bow went ahead
with the sale until every one of them
was sold The lowest bid made for
any of them was 90 ponies. This was

an who had been married to a white
man. hut. the latter having died, she
reverted back TO her parents again.
In all over 800 ponies changed hands |

The Coal Situation,

Reports from the anthracite region
indicate that the resumption of min
Ing is progressing slowly, advices at
headquarters of President Mitchell,
at Wilkesbarre, showing that about
$4,000 men and boys are at work in
the fields. and that the output yester.
day was about 10000 tons.
Governor Stone yesterday issued
orders for the withdrawal Of the
troops from the anthracite region,
leaving the time and number to the
discretion Of Major General Miller.
Acting upon the Governor order,
General Miller at once issued an Or
der for the withdrawal Of the Twelfth
Regiment, with Batteries A, B and
G. The other troops will be sent
home as soon as conditions warrant.
Commenting on Judge Gray's seec-
ton as the head Of the Coal Strike
Arbitration Commission, the Phila-
dephia Pubic Ledger says:
THE election of Judge Gray to the
Charm anship Of the Commission was
well made. A jurlst Of his distinction
learning, experience and probity act
ing as the presiding member of a
body of such high character, though
having but single vote, VIII exercise
great influence in conforming the
proceedings Of the Commission to the

called to zee patient, an undertake
or came to prepare body for burial,
an ice man and florist tried to de-
liver goods, all through fake infor-
nation. In Philadelphia, while a
couple were preparing for their
marriage, a string of callers visited
the BRIDES home. Some joker OF
enemy had sent out numerous pos
tai cards, answering advertisements
for positions and directing the APP
plicants to call at an address, which
was the brides residence. And as
far away as Pittsburg, a young coup
le married the other night, were
given the liveliest kind of time.
They were seized and put into an
express wagon on which was wire
cage. They were put into the cage
and the door was locked. Between
1000 and 5000 persons had gather
ed to see the spectacle, having been
drawn to the house by handbills
which bad been distributed. Four
boys on the wagon burned red fire.
A hobo band led the way, followed
by clown on spotted pony. Then
came the cage containing the bride
and bridegroom; a coach containing
the committee in charge and ten
carriages of guests. One compen-
sation in the story was that the
groom himself had often been a
leader in practical jokes on others.
