no ships OF quite the type Of these. The Olympia
is less than half their size, though swifter. and
more lightly armored though as strongly armed.
The Columbia and the Minneapolis are sWifter,
but not comparable with them in lighting power,
and are much smaller. Our new armored cruis-

mighty Russians which are giving Japan so
much trouble. The present doings in East Asian
seas indicate that we are making no mistake in
adding such vessels to our navy.

speeches directly accusing Roosevelt

trusts are what caused the landslide.
As a matter Of fact those speeches did
not change n single vote. the handwrit-
ing having been ON the wall before Par
ker commenced speechmaking at all eX-
cept Is a profunctory way. The trusts
were undoubtedly on the side of Roose-
welt. as they are wont To play the win
ncr. but this year they did not have to-
disgorgc To any extent calculated To
change the result Although IL is con-
coded they contributed literally. Roose-
welt was elected in spite of all. just as
there Is such thing as a country being

$4,000 POUNDS SWEETNESS
Prophetstown Man Ships Years Cror
of Honey-Season a Poor One.

The bee man OF Prophetstown. Hen
~ Stewart. shipped last week 1000
pounds OF honey to- Springfield. Mass.
This honey is of his own raising. He
receives from Ia TO 1G cents a pound
for il according to- grade. The honey
is the product of $50 stands of bees
which he owns and which he. with
the help of another man has managed
this last summer. This shipment is
just about one half OF his crop last
year and Mr.. Stewart lays the failure
TO the season. He also says that the
crop il deficient in quality. due to the
late make. most of the honey having
been made this fail. and this grade
generally does not suit the palate of
the average person nearly so well as
the early made honey.
The spring crop is usually made
from white clover and this honey com
mands the top OF the market. Mr.
Stewart also has a good supply of bees
wax on hand. something like 500
pounds. and this he will use to a great
extent in the manufacture OF founda-
ton.
