Fond as bees are of nectar. they are
Jet fonder OF honey and will forsake

to their hives. Under the intoxicating
influence of ready made honey they Of

the weak and rob them. Old time bee
keepers understand that when honey is
to be handled II must be taken into a

danger that the whole apiary might be
seized with a frenzy for robbing Great
care should be taken in opening hives

MADE A FINE RUN.
Asiatic Squadron Makes Good Time
from Yokohama TO Honolulu.

Washington, Dec. 20.-The recol d
made by the Asiatic battlcship squad
ron under Admiral Evans in the run
from Yokohama to Honolulu is very
satisfactory to the navy department.
The run is considered remarkable for
vessels of this class.
The squadron consisted of the Ken
tnclly, Oregon, Wisconsin and two col
liers. The Oregon is one of the older
battleships, but she kept up with her
more modern cOnsorts. and finished the
cruise in as good condition. For II
days the squadron maintained an aver
age speed Cf 12.SI knots an hour, COW
ering a total DISTANCE Of 3400 knots.
Thirteen days We're required for the
cruiser squadron under Admiral Coop
ed to make the run from Yokohama to
Honolulu. Although the battleships
did not leave Japan until two days af-
ter the cruisers started, the two squad
rcns reached Honolulu at the same
time.
The cruisers in the squadron under
Admiral Cooper We're the Albany, New
Orleans, Cincinnati and Raleigh. They
encountered rough weather, and this
is given as an explanation OF their
slower time.

MUCH ALARM FELT
Over, Far Eastern Situation-Outbreak
Expected at Any Time.

London, Dec. 21.-The morning
newspapers display increased alarm
over the aspect of affairs in the Far
East rather from the fear that some
unforeseen incident may precipitate
conflict than from any belief that the
resources of diplomacy have become
exhausted. the opinion being still al
most universal that both Russia and
Japan are anxious to avoid war.
The special cablegrams from the Far
East published in this mornings news
papers throw no new light on the stu
alton, but all are agreed upon one
thing, that Japan has not sent an ulti-
matum.
The correspondent Of the Daily Telc-
graph, who after a tour of Manchuria
has arrived at Nagasaki, expresses the
belief that there will be no war. GER
tainly not before the spring. and that
Russia does not want a war before she
has consolidated her position In Man.

of the strength of the Japanese fleet
and over the attitude of China and
Great Britain.

TIE CROWD cHEEREp
As Boston Eiremen Rescued Two Boys
from Burning Building.

Boston, Dec. Outstanding in their
night clothes in the third and fourth
floors of the burning dwelling, 80
Chambers street. last night, with
flames roaring about them and the
smoke pouring in a sitting volume
from the rooms, Philip Yorrish. years
old and Max Heitchmann, lad of 8,
were rescued from their peril by two
f1remen of Ladder 1, while the crowd
below cheered the plucky rescuers.
The building is five story tenement
owned by A. Sander and occupied by
20 persons. About II o'clock a fire
started in the cellar and crept up the
stairway TO the first and second floors
before the flames were discovered.
Many of the occupants were asleep.
The startled tenants on the upper
floors ran down the fire escapes in the
rear, while the persons who occupy the
second stories escaped by the front
stairways.
When the apparatus arrived the fire
was blazing fiercely and dense volumes
of smoke were pouring from the front
windows on all floors. Suddenly the
cry went up that the two children had
been forgotten in the excitement and
were in the burning building. Some
one in the street discovered the boys
standing at the windows as though
ready to jump, while the fire was
creeping to the places where they
stood.
With a cautioning word to the lads
not to attempt to jump, a ladder from
the truck was thrown up and two of
the laddies bounded up to the children.
Both boys were in bad way from the
smoke.

CRISIS is NEAR.
Japan and Russia Just About
to Lock Horns.
Symptoms Grow More and More Pro-
nounced Every Day.
Movement Of Troops and All the Talk
Indicate War.

Pekin, Dec. 20.-The report cabled
from Tien Tsin to London, Saturday,
to the effect that Japan had sent an
ultimatum to Russia is discredited
here and 10 information of a corrobo-
the foreign legation.
While the knowledge of the legations
on the situation leads them to believe
that the sending of an ultimatum is
improbable, the prospects of war are,
however, evidently increasing. The
British legation some days ago received
a telegram indicating that war was
possible. The Japanese legation is Off
cially informed that Russias reply to
the Japanese proposals was unsatis-
factory.
While no news has been received at
the Japanese legation that Japan has
sent an ultimatum to Russia, it is rec
ognized at the legation that grave
crisis is approaching. Maj. Gen. Ha-
mani, the Japanese military attache,
and the Japanese colonel who has been
instructing Gen. Yuan Shat Kafs
troops, have both started for Japan.
The native press recently reiterated
a circumstantiaI story to the effect that
in the event of Manchuria being. re-
tanned by Russia, it was the intention
of Great Britain to establish protec-
torate over the Yang Tso valley as
compensation and to appoint vice.
roy therein. so that her prestige in the
Far East would be equal to Russia's.
Some of the native papers give the
Wal Pu WI, or Chinese foreign board,
as authority for the story.
This fiction is largely credited and
gravely discussed and is creating hos
tility against Great Britain. 1t is sus-
pected that the story has been fostered
by unfriendly agencies appointed for
the purpose and the British legation
is investigating it's origin.

ZAPATA "kNOWS IT."
Writes Letter to Tell How to Handle
isthnlian Affairs.

Paris, Dec. 20 Julie Zapata, writing
from I,ondon-to the Paris edition of the
New York Herald, attacks the address
made by Assistant Secretary of State
LOOMS at recent banquet in New
York. in which MIR. Loomis reviewed
and defended the action of the United
states government in connection with
affairs on the Isthmus of Panama.
Senior Zapta thinks that the European
powers have failed to realize that their
sovereign rights will suffer restriction
if they are not allowed to treat on their
own terms with countries which they
have recognized as Independent.
