clinging to the bushes. SO hugfied after
them as fast as could go with two cam
eras, one in each hand. Now, part of
this reserve was once a farming coun-
try, and few of the old farmhouses are
still standing. Some of these are in good
repair, and are kept as shooting camps
and are used by the members of the Blue
Mountain Forest association in the hunt
ing season. Others have gone more or
less to decay, and are now perhaps the
homes of wild cats and other forest crea-
lures, and in the floors of some of them
there are great holes gnawed by the
teeth of pOrcupines. After tolling after
the buhaloes for perhaps three miles, I
came upon the herd on wide open space
in the rear of one Of of these old farm
houses-soIae grazing and others lying
down, al as contented as herd of do
nestle cattle Cautiously approached
the front Of the house, quietly removed
a window, craWled intoa musty room and
drew the cameras in after me. Going
through to the rear could see the whole
herd in full view from the back windows.
Very slowly opened one of these win
dows without attracting the attention
of the buffaloes, and quickly put cam
era In position. I wished to station the
other camera at one of the side windows,
but the sash was stiff and threatened
to make noise if I tried to open It.
However. it was the work OF but five
minutes to remove pane Of glass with
a penknife, and very soon had my guns
trained upon the herd from two diree-
tons. Having made one or two expos
ures, / waited for chance to get indi-
vidua1 pictures. and little later. when
the buffaloes began to move about, the
opportunity came. The first animal to
approach the rear window was fine
young bull, whose last winters coat was
still hanging to his sides in tatters.
got his portrait without arousing his
suspicious, and then Went.to see If there
was anything within range of the other
instrument. Coming round the corner
of the house there was fine old COW buff
faIo, grazing quietly, and following close
upon her heels was her tawny, three
months-old calf, nibbIing the grass as
though he was not quite used to the
work. A moment later they were fairly
within range. and released the shut
ter, the sound of which caused the COW
to lift her head and gaze in the direction
of the window. Butthe room was dark
and she could not see me, for she soon
went on with her grazing. Returning
to the first camera soon got snap at
two young bulls feeding side by side, ard
thus I might have gone along until all
my plates were used. had not a plate
holder slipped through my fingers and
fallen to the floor with a crash. Half a
dozen loud grnnts. and instantly all the
buffaIoes which were lying downjumpees
to their feet. a few more grunts fol-
lowed, and as though an order had been
given them to march at double quick. the
whole herd was bounding away. and

THE STING OLA BEE.
It Is Not Always Done in Hurried
and se1f-Destroying
Manner.

Stir ging is not the impulsive and
furious action on the part of the bee
that many persons think said a bee
culturist, reports the New York Sun.
Il have often watched bees sting, and
they all go about it in the same way.
Take them, first, in slow and
careful sting where they have plenty
Of time. Here they study the ground
that is to be punctured with minute
attention.
They have a pair of instruments
called palpi-wonderfu instruments
full of fine hairs, each hair terminal
ing in delicate nerve-and with these
palpi they will sound the piece of flesh
as perfectly as a physician will sound
a patients lungs They can tell pre-
cisely in this way whether or not their
sting will penetrate without meeting
any obstruction or coming to any
harm.
1.-THE bee, if it seems good to her at
the end of her examination, turns,
darts in her sting and at the same
time injeets into the wound a tiny
drop of clear pale green venom. # she
has time she withdraws her sting, cir
cling around and around the wound,
serewing out the little weapon as a
carpenter screws out a bit.
But if she has not time, if her life
is in danger, she flies away at once,
leaving both poison and sting. Thus
manned, she dies in an hour or two.
1T is only upon the drones Of che
hive that the average bee uses her
weapon-not one bee in million ever
stings human being or an animal
and when she attacks drone it is easy
to with draw her sting again and thus
no harm comes to her.
When she stings a man, though,
there is more danger; but even here
she reconnoiters with her palpi first
and finds time Ia many cases to get
out her sting and escape uninjured."

OLD TIME MARINE RELIC.
Bones of a Steamship Of 1864 That
Still Serve as a Long Island
Landmark.

90 you see that iron framework
standing in the Water?. asked the old
salt. the other day. relates the New York
Sun, pointing with his finger to an OBJ
jeet a half mile westward and dimly
visible through the haze and mist.
That is the table which supported the
shaft of the side wheel steamship Frank
lin, of the Southampton and Havre
line
Fifty years ago there was spell OF
just such Doggy, muggy weather as this
was a boy, but remember well the
first night Of the Franklin.
I was in bayfield, and heard the re-
port of cannon and, looking up, saw
the fog bank which was hanging low
over the bay.
Father | called, there's a steam
ship almost ashore
"one glance from theold surfman, my
father, brought the reply: She is
ashore. You run for Capt. Topping and
tell him
Capt. Topping was the Wreckmaster,
and in the old days the bringer of the
first report OF ship ashore received five
dollars
II didn't get the money, for others
had been ahead of me, but l got a trip
to the beach, and, like hundreds of 9th
ers. saw my first steamship. That is
JUST SO years ago to-day, July Il.
1.-THE beach that day was thronge6
with visitors as it never has been IN
any one day before or since. for there
were sightseers from the whole coun-
try for miles around, who like me had
never seen steamship, except in pic
lures.
tThe Franklin was loaded with a gen.
eral cargo of French merchandise
which was very valuable The most of
it @as saved badly soaked with sea
water. She lay on the bar that day, and
during the night pounded over and went
high up on the beach. For weeks teams
were driven beside the ship.
aAll efforts to pull her off proved use
less. and her bones are still there, and
appear to be good for another 80 years.
We'll, she looked to be as though she
were a half a mile from the beach now.
Has the wreck moved?" asked the Wis
itof
mo; but the beach has washed away
and left the wreck 300 yards from
shore. She is still useful. however. as
there is irst-class fishing for sea bass
and black fish around the old Franklin
wreck, and it's landmark for coasters
and pilots. 1t is about midway between
Fire island and shinnecock, ard il
sighted by veterans along the coast is
at once recognized.

AN ENEMY or GOOD ROADS
Water Does More Harm Than All the
Other Destructive Agencies Kno9a
to Engineers.

4 3#
Among the elements and forces OF Eae.
ture there are seTeral enemies of good
roads, but the greatest of them is water.
1t washes away the material Of the Rad.
Tt soaks into the road and softens it so
that the wagon wheels cut into the sur
face making ruts and holes. 1t pene-
trates and softens the foundation SO that
the surface of the road sinks or breaks
Up. In the winter the water that's in the
roaQ freezes, expands and 1oosens and
disintegrates the road material.
The most important thing in the build
ing of roads is to lesson or prevent the
FaVages Of water; yet no feature of the
work i.s SO neglected as this. Many local
road supervisors seem to give no con-
sideration to the question of drainage,
and the result is regular mud blockage
during several weeks or months of the
year.
The following are a. few simple rules
the observance Of which would 60 far
toward lettering the roads of this coun-
try.
FirSt-fhe road should be so located
and constructed as to avoid steep grades
down which the water rushes during
heavy rSins, tearing lip and washing
away the road material.
Second-The foundation of the road
should be thoroughly drained by open
side bitches which will carry of thewa-
ter, and where necessary tile drains
should be laid in the foundation itself.
Third-The surface of the road should
be hard and smooth and have sufficient
slope toward the sides to shed the sur
face water
FourtA-Ruts and holes on the surface
of the finished road should be filled as
fast as made so that water can lie op
the surface to be Gorked up into mud.
These rules are simple and easy to fol
low, and anyone who gives any serious
thought to the matter can see the wisdom
Of following thea Still they are al
most universally ignored, as the con-
diEion OF our roads abundantly proves, Y
What this country needs is a-radieal

senses than one, and if each local COM
munity is left to work out the road prob
lem alone, they will continue to move II
the same rnts, and every year millions
of dollars will be thrown into the mud
to say nothing of the losses resulting
from the use Of bad roads. Lectures on
road Improvement seem to do very little
good. Books and bulletins on road build
ing appear to have very little effect.
What the local committees need i:
practical object lessons, and actual as
sistanee, and these can come only from
the state governments and the federal
government It is for this reason that
road reformers everywhere are turning
toward state and national aid as the only
solution Of the road problem.
The bad roads of the United States are
a b1ighs, a curse, a disgrace and al
patriotic progressive citizens should
make a grand united effort to wipe them
out and put our Nation or level witt
the advanced nations Of Europe in the
MATES of roads.

TIE WISE FARM MANAGER
He Makes "a Success Of Life Because
he Knows How to Think to
Some End.

The farmer that succeeds is the one
that thinks, and thinks to some end.
The superintendent Of the farm is
the thing Of most Importance TO a
man that has a farm large enough 10
REQUIRE the work of a number OF men.
The man with the little farm can think
as ne goes along, but not SO the man
that has a large area of expensive
laad to control. This was forcibly
brought to our attention recently in a
visit to one of the most successful
farmers in Illinois. He said that one
OF the greatest faults he had noticed
with unsuccessful farmers was their
lack of ability to plan He himself al
WAYS made it a point to think out
the work days ahead, and to tell the
men the night before what they were
each to do on a certain day. He
cited the instance of one farmer that
lacked this power. He would not try
to think what to do till the day came
when the work was to be done, and
then he never succeeded in arranging
his work SO as to save time. He would
say to one man: We'll, you go over
and repair that fence" and he would go
perhaps a mile to make a little repair
On d fence which could have been re
paired when the men were in that vi
cinity engaged on some other work
This meant a loss Of time that was very
considerable factor when it was repeated
over and over throughout the year in
various forms. The man at the head of
affairs is the one that must make the
farm work success, if it is to be a
uccess.-Farmers' Review.
