GOVERNOR ORDERS
 REWARD PAID.

Governor Davis on Monday is- sued a proclamation ordering that a reward offered for the arr rest and conviction of Albert Matthews, a negro who was hanged recently at Ell Dorado, but which inadvertently was never placed on record, be paid. The proclamation states that the reward was offered November IS, 1903, and that a telegram was sent by the governor to Sheriff w. c. Pendleton of Union county stating that the reward had been offered.
 Matthews was captured by Chief of Police H. H. Reynolds of Guthrie, Okla, and the re- ward was paid to him by Sheriff Pendleton. The governor direct ed that warrant be issued to Sheriff Pendleton for $100.

Some time ago these government bees discovered that Center maket was 8 far better pasture than the flower beds and vegetable gardens of the depart ment, and there they resort every day. to no small discomfort and annoyance of commission dealers, hucksters, gard ners and restaurant proprietors. whose stock in trade the industrious little in- sects prey upon.
 In some cities the rats and mice are troublesome, and in others crickets. grain insects, and various other bugs prey upon the perishables, but Center market Is the only market in the United States where the most serious pest Is the insects which belong to the government. They eat holes in the peaches, poach on the grapes, gather honey from cante- loupes, and are the first to find the soft spots in pineapples and bananas. What is more, there are about Center market A number of open-air eating booths. tc which the bees resort in large numbers to collect honey from various sweet dishes, particularly apricot, apples peach, prune and huckleberry pie. The funny part of 1t all is that the commis- sion dealers, fruit handlers and res taurant keepers are afraid to offer any opposition to their intrusion for fear the plucky little insects will resent 1t.
 Hardly week passes that some one does not get stung by the government bees, who object to rough handling and treatment. With the juice and wax which they collect from apples, melons. peaches, oranges, pineapples, grapes, bananas and pies in the market. they lay up their store of winter honey. The only time the restaurant keepers are able to even up with these little pests is when they have batch of hot pies or bread pudding on hand. They 1t hap pens occasionally that some over-hasty government bee gets his feet scorched. Tn such cases they hover about the pies until they have cooled of, now and then alighting on the crust to test the tenn. perature of the tempting bait.

DOG COMMITTED sUICIDk,
This Spaniel Could Not Stand Bully. ing of Kennel Mate, It Is Thought
 So Ends Life with Gas.

Mig, a pet spaniel owned by Lafay- cite Heidell, of Rochester, N. Y.. is dead, and the manner of his shufiing off establishes precedent in dogdom. He died by asphyxiation, and whether the case is one of suicide or murder is puzzling the disconsolate owner.
 In company with a bull pup Mig oc- cupied comfortable quarters in MT. Heidell's home for several years, and his lot was happy, far beyond that of the ordinary dog. If his end was in- duced by his own devices the cause for the act is hard to trace. Motive for the murderous deed on the part of the bull pup is equally difficult to ind. Therefore mystery surrounds the lam entable case. But Mig is certainly dead.
 MT. Heidell was awakened one night recently by a nauseating odor of gas. Being familiar with the use of gas jets, he was convinced that he had not blown out the gas before retiring. so he searched the premises to discover the leak.
 The cause of the trouble was found in. the kitchen. where the gas range was 4discharging its fuel from an open pipe. Near the range were stretched the two dogs. Evidently they had be- come restless and in moving around the stove had opened the stop-cock. Both had been overcome, and Mig had passed away to the dogs paradise. After some trouble the bull pup was revived and is still in the ring. though weak.
 Persons acquainted with Nlg's dis position are inclined to believe that, long suffering from the pups bullying abuse, he sacrificed bis life ik spirit of revenge.

NEGROES SANG AT IVORY
And Entertained Es- ~

The French opera singers were specta- tors of picturesque street scene night or two ago in the vicinity of the old French opera house, says the New Or leans Times-Democrat Bourbon street was being paved with asphalt. and the work was being hastened so as to have that portion of the street near the opera house accessible for carriages by the time of the opening of the Hrench Op~ era season.
 On this account an unusually large force of workmen were engaged, and in order to push the work to an early com- pletion the men worked at night, huge torches being used. In one block, be- tween St. Louis and Toulouse streets. Aore than 100 men were working.
 Every one familiar with the negro knows that, in so far as he Is able. he sets his work to music. It is factoften marveled at that the negro, whea he is singing or chanting in sort of rhythmic mood, works with more ardor than under different conditions. And if an extra de- mand is made on the negro workman he sings or chants the louder.
 The members of the French opera, or at least many of them, heard for the first time the real melody of the negro voics1 that night. It was that swishful. poeti1 thing caricatured in the ragtime of tl stage, a certain subtle, indefinable som thing which no composer has ever be able to fit to the well-measured Octa of musical arrangements. It was tuneful, heaving call of the leveeI mellow sunset cry of the cotton
 The flaring torch, the bustling hithd thither, the heavy fall of the imple of toil-all those things gave ex tone to the setting.

c.tbird. Defeat Blacksnaks.

4 writer in the Scientific American says: "I witnessed a pair of catbirda making bold defense against black snake bent on devouring the contents vf their nest. At first the snake was in- clined to disregard the distressed birds as they fought to drive 1t away. but the blows of their wings and bills became 90 annoying that the thief had to seek refuge in flight On reaching the roots of . tree from which the river had washed the dirt the snake started to climb, only to be driven beneath them and then out to an old stump. under which the baf1sd and beaten rsptils lock retugA"
 Tho popular belief. dating back for Bo years, that the slopes of the Rockies and the intervening valleys were fit for noth- ing but mining enterprises and would never be of agricultural value would be severely shaken if the old-time pessi- mists could travel for a week through this portion of the San Juan country, says Durango (Col.) dispatch. Fos many miles in all directions fourishing fields are literally blossoming like tho summer rose. All of the cereals do well in the neighborhood and the root crops are of the finest quality. Irrigation. which has done so much for other sec. tions of the formerly unproductive west has worked wonders in this part of Col- orado and the possibilities of irrigating ditches, fed by the insxhaustible snows of the mountains. are just beginning to be fully understood.
