Discouraging Quest For Capital.

One of Pittsburg's bank presidents is
a friend and most unassuming benefac-
tor of ambitious young men. He is
sympathetic when listening to cases
which merit encouragement, but can
also dismiss an interviewer with adj
mirable abruptness.
A youth on one occasion entered the
bankers Office and jovially announced
that he intended going to college. He
intimated that little assistance in the
matter of obtaining a scholarship would
be most convenient asset with which
to start on his career.
"And to what profession do you as
pire?' questioned the president gra-
ciously.
Il won't give up," asserted the young
man boldly, until 1 am privileged to
place after my name the letters D. D.,

intimated that the interview was at
an end by saying tersely:

In THE LAST
WALTZ
By BEATRICE sTURCEs
Copyright, 1905. by Ruby Douglas

Even careless glance around the
room showed that it was the last. The
throng Of dancers was thinning out
flowers were dropping, scraps of con
fetti strewed the floor, .frills and
founces were looking bit bedraggled
and a subtle somnolence marked the
languid movements of the dancers, who
were now circling the floor to the throb
bling strains of the old but ever loved
"Plue Danube"
In one corner of the room stood CIR
with pink cheeks and hazel eyes
Around her were four young men al
claiming the same dance. Laughingly
she held up her card, which showed q
blank line opposite that number.
Eyes, I know" said one in reply to
this, "you wouldn't let me write my
name, but you promised just the same. u
Exactly" said another.
Same here" calculated the fourth.
"Well, I'll tell you," said the girl in a
confidential manner that made each
man think she meant him especially.
"Yes?" they asked in concert.
"Let's all sit it out together"
NO." argued the man who thought
he had the inside track; "let's take
turns. I'll begin" And he started to
suit the action to his word.

her again.
''My private opinion is that she gave
it to somebody who hasn't shown up
and she's really waiting for him, y
laughed one
Some of the color left the pink cheeks.
Could they have guessed how near the
truth his jesting remark came? Why
had she not slipped away before this
last waltz, which she had purposely
withheld all the evening? AS matter
Of fact, she had promised it two weeks
ago, but much had happened in those
two weeks, and now-well, no one
should laugh at her or say she was
breaking her heart for a man who
didn't care for her. If she only could
get through this waltz safely she
thought she would have courage enough
for anything else
''The ideav' she exclaimed with a lit
tie laugh, shifting her big bunch Of pink
roses to her left arm; ''I'll dance it with
all Of you. 1 love the Blue Danube
and I never miss it."
She stood ready and the first of the
four was just about to swing her off
into the throng when tall young man
with clean cut jaw and steady blue
eyes somehow stepped out of the

HIVE IN AN AQUARIUM.
Good Way of Seeing How the Little

Good Way of Seeing How the Little

Everybody is curious to see bees &C
tually at work Take a rectangular
glass aquarium and place it on a win
dow sill, elevated slightly at the side
nearest the window. 50 that when the
latter is raised an inch the bees may
pass in and out. If desired, the bees
may be kept for some time in confine-
ment by raising the aquarium an inch
on blocks and using a strip Of wire
screen cloth to prevent the bees from
escaping.
When confined the bees should be fed
a strip Of equal parts of sugar and
water. A frame or two of bees may
be purchased for trifling sum.
Put within this glass aquarium some
rustic supports to represent projecting.
undecayed portions of the inside Of the
hollow trunk. Keep all covered by an
opaque cloth when not observing what
is going on within this glass bee home.
Then the bees will be free to work
and to adapt themselves to the envi-
ronment. They can suit their own
fancy about attaching combs to the
sticks; they may build diagonally or in
any other form that they may prefer,
and they may attach the comb to sides
or ends just when and where they
think it is necessary.
In the artificial hives the combs are
attached only at the edges, but in nat
ural conditions within the bee tree or
in it's counterpart, as represented by
the old fashioned box hive with Opaque
sides and in our transparent inverted
aquarium, the bees can build combs
and attach them in any way that they
see fit.
One of the most interesting objects
for study is to note when the bees
think it necessary to put out a side
support from long comb. They seem
to believe that they are really within
a hollow tree and that it is likely to be
swayed by the gales. Of course when
so swayed long combs laden with
honey or with young bees would be
too much for the unyieiding rigidity of
the upper part of the combs. These. it
they have no side stays, would bend.
crack and be crashed against each
other
The bees have learned this and give
the combs fine support whenever 1t
is necessary. They do this. it is true to
a certain extent, in the regular eight
or ten frame hive, but not with the
naturalness with which they do it in Il

Shot by His Own Invention.

Leopold Fuchs. the keeper of poul-
try shop at Charlottenburg, near Ber-
lin, was the victim of his own contriv-
ance against thieves. He had placed
an automatic pistol above the entrance
to the shop which would fire at the in
truders like machine gun as soon as
the spring at the threshold was trod-
den upon. He forgot where the dam
ger spot was while locking up his
place, with the result that the pistol
shot him repeatedly. At the hospital to
which the neighbors took him thirty
six pellets were found in his body. His
condition is dangerous.

Ordnance Department Has Trouble
In Designing a Mount.
BUILD NO MORE S|xTEEN.INCH GUNS
INCH RIFLES GOOD FOR
COAST DEFENSE.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept. 26.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept. 90
There is a delay in the completion Of
the designs of the mount for the 16-
inch gun built some years ago at the
Watervliet, n. Y, arsenal for expert
mental purposes, with a view to the
adoption of the type and calibre as
the largest of the guns of the coast
defense armament. 1t is not likely
that there will be constructed another
gun of that size, and there has been
and still is much question of its To-
cation when it is finally provided with
a suitable carriage. The problems
which are engaging the attention of
the army ordnance experts are being
worked out on a smaller carriage, one
for a 6-inch gun, which will enable
lions likely to arise in the construction
of the carriage for the monster rifle.
w me there Is HOl Likely 10 De dnOlHef
16-inch gun built for the coast defense,
it is probably that a gun of 14-inch
calibre will be designed by the ord
nance office here. In fact. the ex-
Terts are now engaged on the plans
for a mount for such a rifle. The
Taft board. which revised the old En-
dicott system of coast defense, ex-
pressed its approval of such a gun as
representing the maximum power In
the ordnance of the coast Notifications.
and it is likely that Congress next
year will be asked to provide for such
a gun. which will undoubtedly be the
limit in the way of calibre for coast
defense ordnance in this country.
