Big Bees, Though the Hives Were
Of the Ordinary Sort.

District Attorney Reeves of Los Ange-
les. Cal, appreciates a good story, and
tells one on an Irishman that will bear
repeating.
Some people object to releasing pris-
oners or a fioater because of the fact
that the renegades are turned loose upon
other communities. That reminds me of
the drishman who. after reaching Amer
lea. was full of homesick brag, in which
nothing in America even approached
things of a similar variety in Ireland.
In speaking of the bees of the ould sod
he grew especially roseate and said:
'Whoy, the baze in that country Is
twice as big as in this Indade. they're
bigger than that They're as big as tn
shane We have in this counthry!'
=" Bees as big as Sheep said his in
credulous listener. Why, what kind of
hives do they have to keep them in?'
- No bigger than the ones in this coun-
rhty, was the reply
=" Then how do the bees get into the
hives?" he was asked.

TANKED.

Sheriff Struthers this morning ar
rested John w. Tirkington, upon the
grave charge of wife beating.
Tirkineton resides at the foot OF
Main street. just ACROSS the tracks IN
Crawford addition. For the past
week he has beeen on drunk and IN
that time has created considerable
disturbance. He has had the whole
neighborhood torn up with his de-
bauch
Last night he went to the last ex-
treme. He went home and dragged
his seventeen year old dauehter out
of bed and threw her down stairs and
then beat his wife over the head with
his fist.
This morning the injured woman
swore out warrant for his arrest
and same was made.
Tirkingt"n is man OF medium
stature and ordinarily of meek nature
but when in his cups likes to do
plenty of damage.
His examination took place before
Judge Sweeney this afternoon.

last night. the robber or robbers
effecting an entrance through rear

amount of money in the cash register
last night. There We're great many
pennies, these the robber took, to-
gether with large bunch of keys.
Mr.. Walsh had an overcoat and some
other stuff taken.
Suspicion was aroused from quite n
number of things that someone fairly
familiar with the store had done the
burglarizing and this morning Mar
shal Allison made an arrest of a party
who it is thought did the work. An
overcoat which was identified was
found III his possession. which was

MOL|NEUX
Acquitted.

New York, Nov. IL Rowland b.
Molineux was set at liberty yesterday
after spending four years in prison
and being once condemned to death
and twice placed on trial for his life
for the murder of Mrs. Katherine j.
Adams. But thirteen minutes sutficed
for the jury to reach verdict of ac-
uuittal.
Molineux. who was brought into
court as soon as it was known that
the jury had agreed, was apparently
unconcerned as he had been through
out the trial. and gave no evidence of
emotion when the words that estab
lished his innocence were pronounced.
His aged father, General Mollneux
was deeply affected and could with
difficulty respond to the greetings OF
friends who pressed forward to offer
their congratulations
Immediately after the rendering of
the verdict the prisoner was formally
discharged from custody and left the
court room with his father and coun-
sci. In passing out of the building
the three We're cheered by great
crowd that gathered in anticipation
of the acquittal.
From the criminal court building
Molineux went to the city prison. In
making his way to his old cell, and
thence to the front entrance he trav
ersed a considerable portion of the old
and the new prison, and everywhere
he went the news of his acquittal
went too. and the prisoners cheered
him. He even went through the wo-
mems department where there were
many who cheered him.

Molineux and two of his attorneys.
entered II carriage and We're driven
away to his fathers home in Brook
lyn. About 5000 persons cheering
and shouting, surrounded the carriage
and greatly delayed its departure.
The keeper of the Tombs prison
came out and shook hands with Moli-
neux, and many people waved hand
kerchiefs from the windows in the
street.

COLORADO.

1t is with feeling of regret that
we learn that Rev. H. f. Knight has
decided to make his future home in
Grand Junction, Colorado. Mr..
Knight had about as we mentioned
last week. made arrangements for to
build home in this city, but he has
given up that scheme, sold the barn
he intended to move ONO his newly
acquired lots to Ben Gantvoort and
will shortly leave for Colorado. We
feel that we can detect in this change
the hidden hand of our friend j. G.
Plank, who was always warm friend
of Mr.. knights The Advocate re-
grets that we are to lose this good
man who has for long time been a
dominant factor in our spiritual
affairs as we'll as in social and tenn
poral ways. However, it is sincerely
hoped that the genial climate of Col
orado may be conducive to his speedy
return to health and that when he
feels strong enough he will return to
his old pulpit in the NJ. E. church,
from which place he has labored so
long and so faithfully for the we'll
being of our townsmen. Duel Co.

TOO MUCH SULLIVAN.

There was only a fair house last
night to hear 1.-The Irish Pawnbrok
ers.' In the Judgment of the Senti-
mel the whole affair was very bum.
We never heard anyone on the stage
who strained so hard to be funny and
was anything but funny, as Sullivan.
one of the stars of the com mbination.
He talked out of the side of his mouth
and was in voice and action more like
"A negro than ap Irish comedian. His
jokes We're old and had moss on them
and he occupied the time of the audi
pany would have appeared to better
advantage.
There was splendid supporting
company. The women were we'll cos
tuned and handsome and several of
the gentlemen of the cast were good
singers and dancers, but there was too
much Sullivan & Mack. not so much
of the latter as the former.
Upon one occasion one of the per-
formers sang very sweetly. Dear Old
Summer Time and it caught on with
the audience and they demanded the
return of the performer But Sulli-
van rushed on to the stage and began
some of his twaddle to the disgust of
the audience.
In the chorus parts the company
made hit and there We're several of
the specialties very good. but if Sui

left out good many times it would

The Woman's club met at the home
of Mrs. NJ. O. Delaplain yesterday.
The principal paper of the afternoon
VISA one by Mrs. Wadsworth making
comparison of the schools of this
city and those of Denver. Another
paper was by Mrs. Geo. j. ID. Will
liams. These two people seemed to
think that the press of the city was
against the schools of the city and
this was publicly expressed in the
last paper mentioned. The Sentinel
has not been able to get the exact re-
port of those papers, but Will have
somethin to say in relation to this
particular portion of the press being
against the public schools. This
statement. if such was made, is very
far from the true state of feeling by
the press for the Schools. Instead of
being antagonistic to the public
schools. it is most favorable. only it
may be impossible for those who have
made such assertions to see conditions
in the same light as does this paper.
There was good attendance at the

A song that echoes sweet,

In the thrilling air around you, and
the grasses at your feet.
It's sing a song of harvest the summer
days We're long.
But they led to fair fruition where tho
harvest Is n song;
A song whose music fills
All the valleys and the hills
That twinkles in the sunlight and rip
Piles in the rills.
It's sing a song OF harvest: let the mer-
ry echoes rise
An answer to earth's sorrows. a solacs
for Its sighs:
Earth's riches reaped and stored
Tolls welcome and reward:
Love and toll have made the harvest,
and love of life is lord,
