Bees and Honey.

ever style, so closely fitted that the
moth eggs can not be deposited In
them. Heavy painting aids in this.
If at any time the joints begin to open

answers for this purpose. Hives or
the upright box form should have fix
ed bottoms, with inside surface dress
ed quite smooth. and with sufficient
inclination downward and forward to
admit of being swept by passage OF
bees to keep 1t clear of debris. so
there will be no indus for propagation
or worms. The lower ends of the side
walls are square and extend below
the bottom. and rest on a skeleton
bench, so there will be very little con-
tact OF timbers. No trash lodges about
the bottom. and it never gets damp
from rain. A strong colony thus pro
teeted will not be infested with
worms.
As to using comb of previous sea
son, it Is preferable to allow bees to
make new comb for surplus comb
honey. II broodcomb Is not badly cut
up by worms and a strong colony of
Italians is hived on it. they will
speedily clear it out, unless the worms
and cuttings are webbed into mass.

A Royal Slave.

1t would be difficult to say too much
in commentator of the real merit of "A
ROYAL Slave in which Mr.. Clarence
Bennett is starring the West this season.
The play may be said to be type of its
own from the rise to the fall of the cur
tain. 1t appeals to all classes, as it has
the merit Of the classical drama. and the
strongest dramatic features of the sensa-
tional drama. 1t is full of heart interes,
and pure sentiment The devotion of
the slave to the prosecuted child of his
master, and the noble character of the
hero priest are true heart chords. The
play is based on an actual incident in
Mexican history, and gave the producers
a fine chance for the display of gorgeous
scenery and costumes. At Colonial

SIMMONS AND BIRDsALL
NOW BOTH BEHIND BARS

Both Edward Simmons. for the
theft Of a robe, and Arthur BirdsaH
from whom the robe was stolen, are
now prisoners at the county Jail.
Simmons is under bonds for larceny
and Birdsall for disposing of mort
gagged property, Birdsan declares
Simmons was largely instrumental in
getting him in trouble. The latter
was formerly proprietor of the Amer
lean house saloon on Market square.
Birdsall was one of his best custom
ers. When his funds ran low Sim
mons. he claims, suggested that he
sell his horses and wagon, assuring
him the fact they were mortgaged TO
another was no legal bar. This was
after the robe had disappeared.
Birdsau did not know the thief
He never suspected Simmons. He was
his friend. he thought. Finally Bird
sail says he was hearing things that
began to point the finger of suspicion
at Simmons. Then it was, he says,
that Simmons invoked the law on him
for selling mortgaged goods, expect
ing that if Birdsall was in Jail he
would not have anything further to
say in regard to the missing robe. If
he did speak he would not be believed.
Birdsalrs friends came to his res
cue and II. NJ. McCaskrin was retain
ed as his lawyer. McCaskrin, with
the aid of Detective Carnes, located
the robe, in possession of Isaac Rich
ardson. The latter admitted he had
bought il from Simmons for Sc. 1t is
worth $40. The robe was offered in
evidence against Simmons at his pre-
liminary Yesterday afternoon.
Now Simmons and Birdsall are
again close neighbors and have OPP
portunity to renew friendship.

heart in which two well-known local
telegraph operators figured. Let one
of them tell it:

| The basketball games played last
evening in the high school gymnasium
between the Muscatine and Rock Isl
and girls teams and the alumni and
high school boys teams resulted in
victories for the local high school in
both cases. The score of the girls
game was Il to s, and of the boys 49
to II.
The girls played first, and for the
first half it was n close game, the
score being tied all of the time. In
the last two minutes of play two fielG
baskets raised the score for Rock ISL
and TO Q and I. The second half was
played in good earnest, but the home
team woke up and were able to make
baskets better than in the first half.
The game was well played by both
teams. and they were so equally
matched that it was n hard won vic
tory. The lineup was as follows:
