thing in the world of which he had q
great store of knowledge it was bees.
The chance at once to take the con-
ceit out of his neighbor and play first
class joke on him was an opportune one,
the man thought; and when the prospec-
tive victim was not looking he kicked
the unruly hive couple of times in or
der to stir up the inmates to proper
fighting condition, after which the neigh
Dor was invited to make an examtna-
ton and, if possible, to remove some OF
the honey.
Accordingly, with a broad grin over
spreading his face, the neighbor grasped
the hive roughly, severely shaking it.,
then boldly removed the top, and, with
out the slightest fear, drew forth several
combs of honey.
Myriads of angry bees Immediately
swarmed in the air and
What did they do?
Somebody surely was surprised, for
the little insects, with their stingers
ready, flew over to their owner, who
stood at what he considered safe dis
lance, and soon put him on the run,
screaming with pain.
WoAld you believe it, not one Of the
bees STACKED the know-it-all man. And
during the week he was compelled to re-
mail. indoors recovering from his many
wou1,ds, the would-be joker had lots of
time 70 think it over and endeavor to
figure out why it was that only he was
attacked. He will never know, but per-
haps the bees could tell, If given the
power of speech.-Ross B. Franklin, in
Chicago Record-Herald.

HUNDRED MILES PER HOUR.
Storks Fly at This Wonderful Speed
and Sometimes Keep It Up
for Many Hours.

No living thing, not even a scared jack
rabbit, can travel with the speed dis
played by such birds as the stork and
the northern bluethroat. Not only do
these birds fly with a speed that can
hardly be conceived, but they keep up
their rapid flight for 1000 or 1000 miles
at stretch without apparently firing.
Evidence has been collected recently
which shows that the bluethroat flies
from Central Africa'to the shores of the
North sea, distance Of 1900 miles, in
less than day and night, and making
it, moreover, in one uninterrupted fight.
The storks, which spend their sum-
mers in Austria-Hungary and their
winters in India and Central Africa,
are also marvellous travellers, and make
their journeys twice year in unbroken
fight each time. .:
From Budapest, in Hungary, to La
hore, in India, is about 2, 400 miles in an
air line, and the storks make the jour-
ney in "a hours, thus travelling at the
rate Of 100 miles an hour for the whole
distance. The storks which spend the
summer in central Europe and the win
ter in central Africa travel with the
same rapidity.
Slatin Pasha, an Austrian in the serv-
ice of the khedive, and now governor
of the Central African province of OAR
fur, was for many years captive in
the hands of the mahdi and the khalifa
when the dervishes killed Gordon, and
established their empire, now over
thrown, in the Soudas. One day, at
Omdurman, he saw stork with metal
band attached to one of its legs. He
caught the bird, and found engraved up
on the band the name Of an old friend
in Austria.
He wrote note to his friend and tied
it to the metal band. When the stork
returned to Austria for the summer the
friend saw the letter, caught the stork
and read the message, which was the
first certain assurance that the outside
world received that Slatin was still
alive.
This stork, as was proved by the
dates, made the journey from Omdur-
man to the Austrian country place, a
distance of nearly 5000 miles, at a speed
of more than 100 miles an hour.-N. Y.
