with the best results in many internal
and external diseases. 1t serves as
means for taking powders, for the
preparation of salves and the sweeten-
ing of medicine"
Honey is also of great value as a
medicine for children, and is readily
partaken of by them as choice, dainty
dish. For the removal of worms honey
has often been beneficially used, and
1t is often used in diseases Of the mouth
and throat.
Now / come to the abuse of the
honey bee, which is not as old as its
use. The first public abuse the honey
bee received that know of was when
1t was accused of puncturing grapes.
Most of you remember how bitterly
both sides of the question fought to
prove their point. Brother fought
against brother and even went to
court about 1t. To-day It is proved
beyond all doubt that the honey bee
does not puncture grapes or any other
fruit. If a man now would claim that
honey bees punctured grapes he would
be looked upon as an ignorant man.
The latest abuse of the honey bee
is the spreading of blight. Let US look
at this a little. Professors claim that
the bees carry blight in nectar from
flower to flower. How this can be
do not know, for bees carry nectar in
the honey sac, and have never seen
this leak yet. If the nature of blight
Is rightly understood, it will be found
that blight does not begin in the flow
err. but that the dying Of the flower
is the result of the blight in the wood.
Experience has proved to us that In
orchards where bees work extensively
ON the blossoms there is the least trou-
bic with blight, and in cases where
there were no bees the trees were in
tested by blossom blight.
will not discuss the question long
err in this paper. but think It is very
unwise for authorities to publish such
theories in magazines (Which everyone
looks upon as good authority before
It is proved beyond reasonable doubt
that bees are guilty Of carrying blight.

COMPLEXION AND INSANITY.
Fewer Blondes Than BrunetteS in
State Insane AsyIums,

State Insane AsyIums.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat
Several months ago happened
across a pamphlet published by the
government of Southern state IN
which We're some interesting statistics
regarding the complexion of the in
mates of the State Insane Asylum -
Mr.. Hobart Langdon said, "Only per
cent. of the total had light hair and
only 2 per cent. blue eyes.
1T struck me as rather curious
fact that dark haired and dark eyed
people should so largely predominant
among the insane, but the matter of
latitude might play some part in this,
l thought: for naturally there were
more dark than light haired people in
that section. Just as a matter of Gu
riosity, however, 1 thought 1 would
write to asylum authorities in certain
other parts of the country to see what
the ratio of light haired inmates was
to those who were dark, and expected
to find the percentage increase in COM
munities where the total of light hair
ed was larger, but in this l was mis-
taken: so I am led to infer from the
statistics 1 gathered that there is a
greater possibility for insanity among
dark haired than among light haired
people.
My figures were obtained from six
ty-eight asylums, located in nearly
every state in the Union, and few
in Canada and England. The total
number of patients in these institutions
was 1852, of whom 703 had light hair
and only &C red or auburn locks. In
other words, SO per cent. of the inmates
were brunettes. with either black or
brown hair, the latter in varying

JACK O'BRIEN AND KID MCOY
BOXED SIX SCIENTIFIC ROUNDS
It Would Have Been Difficult Matter to Pick
Winner

philadelphia, May 14.-Kid Mccoy
and Jack O'Brien tonight fought one
Of the most scientific six-round bouts
over seen in this city at the Second
Regiment Armory.
Al the close of the bout It would
have been a difficult task to pick the
winner. Mccoy had the best of the
third and fourth rounds. while O'Brien
Mad the Kid in trouble at the close
of the fifth round and also in the sixth
wound Mccoy was evidently in dis
+ress at the end of the sixth round.
He repeatedly ran away from O'Brien
and only attempted to counter when
@Prien led. There were no marks on
Mccoy, while O'Brien's left eye was
bleeding.
OBrien's blows lacked force, and
this fact alone probably saved Mccoy
from being knocked out. O'Brien land
ed the greatest number of blows. but
McCoys punches had more steam be-
hind them.
Il was 1890 O'Clock when Mccoy en-
tered the ring. He was followed a
moment later by O'Brien. McCoy's
seconds were his brother, Homer Sell

Billy Elmer. O'Brien's seconds were

There were not over 1000 persons in
the big arn1ory when the men enter
ed the ring. The men were called to
the center of the ring and given the
usual instructions by the referee and
the battle was on. The men shook
hands at 10:40.
Round One--McCoy forced OBrien
around the ring, but the latter drove
with left to face and repeated 1t a
moment later with another. The men
came to a clinch. O'Brien landed a
left on the face and light left on
the stomach. They rushed to clinch.
Mccoy landed light left on O'Brien's
stomach and they clinched. They I'D
died for second, and Mccoy landed
a left to the face. They again rushed

the face and the Kid broke ground.
O'Brien had done all the leading in
this round but his blows lacked force.
Round Two-O'Brien was right after
Mccoy, but missed a left lead to the
face. They rushed together and both
landed lefts. O'Brien landed a left to
the Kids head and brought his right
over the jaw. Mccoy landed a right

THE HONEY BEE.
It's Use and Abuse--Its Value 10 Fruit
Growers.

0EOWGEHa
F. II. Yahnke, Before Minnesota State
Convention.
The little busy bee was in the Gar
den of Eden to fulfill its mission of
pollenizing the flowers and gathering
the honey for the unborn generations.
When Adam titled the soil the honey
bee was with him, and it has been TAX
en- wherever civilized man has gone.
All the ancient writings mention the
honey bee and the usefulness of it's
product. Homer, Herodotus, Aristotle,
Varro, Virgil, Pliny and other ancient
sages composed poems extolling the
activity, skill and economy of the bee.
In the Hebrew language the word
ghoneg means delight, and where is
there in this wide world an article more
precious for food or medicine? Ovid.
when describing the feast of the gods
which required costly ailments and
precious wines, says THE delicious
honey cakes were never wanting"
In the statute books of ancient ma
tives laws are found for the protection
Of bees. The thief Of swarm of bees,
according to old Saxon laws. was pun
ishable by death. The old Bohemian
people believed that 1t was a sin to
kill a bee.
The honey bee is just as useful now
as II was IN ancient times. In my
younger days planted every year a
piece of cucumber FOR picking, and
was troubled greatly in the blossoms
not setting fruit. / then began 10
keep bees and that remedied the trou-
Bile. How often our apple crop would
be a failure IL II were not for the aid
OF the honey beel The product of the
bee is as useful as it ever has been.
Honey is food In one of the most
concentrated forms. 1t gives warmth
to the system, arouses nervous energy
and gives vigor to all the vital func-
tions. To the laborer II gives strength,
to the business man mental force. Its
effects are not like the ordinary slim
ulants, such as spirits, but It pro-
duces a healthy action, the results Of
which are pleasing and permanent
sweet disposition and a bright in
tellect.
Karl Cater, German teacher, OF
the city Of Vienna, says I'm Inedi-
cine. and especially In the healing OF
wounds. honey was used as a universal
remedy In early times. It yet constl-

dignities to which a patient canine
playfellow will submit before he re-
sents them; but beware the old say
ing, that even worm will turn. The
most certain. way of obviating mis-
haps such as have occurred lately Is
by keeping young children away from
animals, and making sure that the
older ones treat them with kindness.
The tortures that child like the one

land there was not a single inmate that
was not brunette. OF course, 1 do
not know how to account for this, for
am not a specialist in such matters
and only secured the statistics out of
pure curiosity but it certainly looks
as thou%h blondes were less liable to
insanity than those with darker hair
or eyes.
Another peculiar feature about the
facts I obtained, however, was that the
percentage of those regarded as in
curably insane was much greater
among the blondes than among the
brunettes. The totals show that among
the dark haired inmates only SO per
cent were marked hopelessly insane,
while among the blondes 81 per cent.

Faculty of Imitation I'm Animals.
From the Detroit News Tribune.

from IHe DelTOlI NEWS 4ItOuHes
Some animals have wonderful pow
ers of imitation. Dogs brought up in
the company of cats have been known
to acquire the trick of licking the
paws and then washing the face. When
a cat has been taught to sit up for her
food her kittens have been known to
initiate her action. Darwin tells of a
cat that was in the habit of putting
her paw into the mouth of a narrow
milk pitcher every time she got the
chance and then licking the cream off
her paw. Her kitten soon learned the
same trick. A lady tells of rabbit
that she keeps in a cage with a mon
key, and says that Bunnie has caught
many of the monkeys ways. 1t is
said that starving pigeons that have
been brought up ON grain will not eat
peas to save their lives, but that If
pea ting pigeons are put with them
Ghey follow their example and eat
peas.

Kitchens sensational attack on the Presi-
dent There are two young brothers Kitchen
from North Carolina, and the younger,
Claude, has distinguished his first session
by making very damaging extracts from
GrOsvenor's letters to Hearst's Journal in
June, 1900, and from Roosevelt's books.
Grosyenor declared that Roosevelt as Vice
President was very obiectional to Nc
Kinley and that Mckinley was humil-
lated by the contact He made fun Of
Roosevelt's military strutting before the
convention in his soldier cIothes, and spoke
OF him as curious, erratic sort of man, .
without Judgment or will of his own
Kitchen quoted from Roosevelt that the
Confederate soldier was an anarchist and
that through the Southern character there
lns streak of coarse and brutal barbar-
ism. He quoted from Ranch Life and
Hunting Trail'' (pages IA and 93) IN which
Roosevelt approved of lynching for horse
stealing, for the stealing Of a $40 rat
tailed Texas poney, as Kitchen stated it.
He then quoted Roosevelt's disparaeement
Of former Presidents and his denunciation
Of Congress in his Syracuse address as a

great sensation here.
