BEES IN THE CHIMNEY

Mrs. Chaffee of Court Street Wants to
 Get Rid of It.
 Mrs F. H. Chaffee, of Court street, is in quandary as to how to get rid Of a swarm of bees which has taken posses- sion of one of the chimneys of her house Sunday afternoon after shooting seventeen bees out of the house withva-9 ndous expressions of wonderment as toI where they all came from, she noticed as peculiar noise from one of the hre-s places Further investigations dis~E closed the fact that a large number of bees had swarmed there. In itself this is not a circumstance to be wondered. at, for the chimney is never used, and children and dumb animals show a great propensity for coming to Mrs. Chaffee at all seasons. Mrs. Chaffee rev gards the bees, however, somewhat In the light of intruders, and is making ins squiries as to how to rid the chimney Of these bees without hurting their feel-E ings. Smoke has been suggested, but Mrs. Chaffee will have none of 1t for fear some of the bees will be injured~ Ill the meantime the insects are con- graduating themselves on finding such snug quarters.

REVERSING THB CASE.

Els A wild Southern politician is said toE have once truculently boasted that he would call the roll of his slaves at the foot of the Bunker Hill monument. If the tradition is true, 1t was a piece of insolence which naturally offended deeply the sentiment of the people of that proud commonwealth. But this was mere gasconade. Had he been able to carry out his threat and then had he installed his negroes in the State- house of Massachusetts. and, by travesty Of law. filled the legislative halls with thieves and proceeded to disfranchise the best and the proudest people of the commonwealth; then had he, sustained by bayonets, during eight Years ridden rough-shod over them; cut the value of their property in half; squadrupled their taxes; sold out 20 per cent. of the landed property of the State for forfeiture; appointed over two hundred negro trial justices who could neither read nor write, put ne- gro ex-conyict on the bench of their
 highest court, and paraded through the State something like 80000 negro mili-
 tia, armed with money stolen from the State, to insult and overawe the peo-
 pie, while the whole South looked cool Ny on and declared it was just; then
 might there be parallel but not a complete parallel to what some of the
 States of the South endured under ne-
 gro rule. Clures.

NoRTHFIELD CONFERENCE THEMES.

 Speakers of Reputation to Present Top
 ics of Much Interest to Workers in
 Religious Ceilings.
 < Things upon which the Northfield conferences will pay emphasis this year are the meeting for Sunday school workers, repeated from last year, and the one, which is quite new, for the wo- men's missionary societies of the coun- try. The last named represents an enormous interest, for women societies raise fully one-fourth of all money con tributed to missions, besides contribu- ting a large share Of the money sent from organizations not designated as their own. In several religious bodies their societies hold more or less aloof from those conducted by the men; and the women insist, in growing measure, upon recognition, and against being over-shad adoWed and swallowed up in so- cieties controlled by men. The confer ence at Northneld will discuss the pro- blem of women. and will aim chiefly at local leadership, which is declared to be the great need. It is for societies raising funds for foreign missions only, The general conference at Northfield this year will have as principal speak CTS Prebendary Webb-Peploe Of St. PauPs cathedral, London; Rev. c. < Campbell Morgan, who comes back from London to take the chief burden or the Northfield speaking; and Rev. Dr. Johnstone Ross of Glasgow. A special effort is making to bring to- gether, during the Womens conference the largest number of missionaries, or furlough and retired, ever attending 3 summer conference.

THE SHEEP AT BAY.

x Rage against the Equitable directors,
 for the standards of formality which they illustrate and uphold ought not to die out until there has been an irlvesti-
 gation so thorugh as to force a change of system. Many things will not ap- pear, however careful the investiga- tion. Money invested in the purchase Hof legislation is not upon the books, nor is the vast amount diverted from the Equitable by subsidiary syndicat-. es. According to high finance, for di-
 rectors to take money from the treas- ury is bad form, but to keep 1t from ever getting there is 8 high-1ninded and admirable device. This agitation
 will have its use if it leads to realiza- ton of what insurance methods are.
 Under a reformed system the directors should not be dummies controlled by
 the president or by the owner of ma
 jority of the stock. They should have the actual direction, and their powers with regard to Investigation should be more strictly limited. Possibly, it might be we'll to set a limit even in |amount-say of 5o0,000,000- so that
 less attention should be paid to &C., quiring new business and more at
 tention to getting good returns for the policyholders already in. Now the big companies sacrifice old policyholders to new ones, by such devices as giving the first years insurance free, so that
 men are led into the big companies by

 in the long run be better off in the

TRIBUTE TO MR, PLATT.
FROM CONSUL AND EK-EDITOR
 4. HOMER BYINGTON.
Letter from Naples Expresses Deepest
 sorrow--Mr. Byington's Many old
 Associations With the Deceased Sem

atOr. s.98 .s Hartford, May 9.-A prominent re- publican in this state has received the following letter from United States. Consul A. Homer Byington, who has been stationed at Naples, Italy, for a number of years, and through the whole of his life one of the most intimate friends of Senator Platt:
 April 24, 1905.
 can't thank you enough for so promptly sending me the cable giving, as it did, the inexpressibly sad news of our dear and mutual friend Platt's death. How our hearts have ached over the event. I at, once cabled Mrs Platt our united and profound condolences Just as your cable reached the consult ate Senator Bard of California dropped in. and was as shocked as we were, and said there was not another man In all the senate who could not have been better spared than Senator Platt, ana you and I and thousands of others will surely confirm his opinion. Oh, why IS it, that such things can be? Sometime, though, in the Ponder we may know. He and I were practically boys togeth- CT. I was born July 23, 1926, and he 2 year later, on July 19, 1927. We served one or two terms in the Connecticut State senate together and on May 3, 1862, we were appointed by the senate "ex-officio, members and fellows of Yale.'' But my heart IS too full to write God comfort and sustain his lbereaved widow and son. :s
 Green be the turf above thee,
 Friend of my early days
 None knew thee but to love thee
 Nor named thee but to praise.
 I hope the legislature will honor it. self and the state in the eyes of the nation by voting bronze statue for Platt as 8 counterpart of that of Gov ernor Bucking ham.
 United States Consul Byington was editor of the NorWalk Gazette for a long period and was actively interested in Connecticut politics. During the Civil war he was correspondent in the field of the New York Tribune and won brilliant distinction in that line of news paper work.

PROSPECTUS BRIGHT
For the Moodus Trolley.

. General Manager Minard, represent ing the Louis J. Pierce Construction Company Of Providence. R. l.. has giv- en out an estimate of the resuryey of the Moodus trolley line under Ransom 6 Hoadley of Providence, R. T., and the estimated eost of equipment, the total amount being plaed at slsS.lS3.l1.
 The resurvey shortened the distande nearly mile by not iskirting the bor- ders of Mount Tom, below Leesville, as originally planned. q more simple line being run The original cost of con- struction and equipment was one hun dred and seventy five thousand dollars. Manager Minard says that his figures will build the road and equip it, and there is possibility that the figures might be shaded ! bit.
 This is encouraging to those who have been pushing the Moodus-E East Hamp- ton Tramway Company in Moodus, e. H. Emley having secured between thir- ty-five and forty thousand dollars by subscription. It was originally planned with the, old figures in view to raise seventy thousand dollars and bond the road for the remainder, but now, even if the full amount is not raised the road bids fair to be built. and many are talk ing small blocks of stock.
 It is estimated that, judging from the amount of freight handled by the Moo dus nlanufactrers and merchants. some fourteen thousand dollars could be req lized yearly from this source alone, to say nothing about express. passenger traffic. etc. With bonds at five per cent, it is said, the company ought to pay a good dividend 10 stockholders.
