BUSINESS COLLEGE NOTES.

A happy New Year to all readers OF
our items.
Prof. Miller is spending his vacation
visiting his relatives at Nashville, H.
Spelling honQrs for December cN.
aminations 90 to George Manley, first,
and Miss Towers, second.
Our winter term begins Wednesday,
January I'd, 1907, at which time
several new students will enroll. New
classes will be formed.
All of our boarding students spent
this week fully enjoying the pleasures
of home, and will no doubt return to
school work next week determined to
do, If possible, more aud better work
than they did before.
President Moolhart and Professor
Miller were pleasantly surprised on
last Friday, when Mr.. Conway, on be-
half of the students, presented each of
them with q very handsome gold watch
fob Suitable remarks were made by
the recipients.
Our first football team played n
close and exciting game with the ALI
Stars of Pennington on Christmas
Day. Unfortunately the game ended
indecisively, owing TO decision Of the
referee, which the Moothart team con-
sidered unjust, and consequently
several of our boys refused to continue,
thus ending the game.

this opinion. And / should be
sorry if Lillian Bells estimate of
mothers were true, judging from 4
boys conduct in company, for /
have known the geutlest, most
considerate mothers whose boys
act in public so that it would bring
a blush to their cheeks did they
know of their rudeness. The pres,
ent generation is not noted for its
courtesy and consideration for then
elders. Every paper and maya
zine in the land has taken up tn,
cry iu regard to the rudeness ant
i'll breeding, which seems to be the
rule now in polite society. Hered

point out a sentence wherein Judge
valliant's opinion is sharply criticised.
This brief aroused the Indignation
of the court and brought forth the fol-
lowing entry in the motion, made at a
conference Of the Judges: "Masterson
VS.. ST. Louis transit company; motion
for rehearing stricken from files; mo-
ton and brief ordered returned to
counsel for appellant.
Discussing the ruling, Judge Shep-
hard Barclay sand: "rhcre was no
intention on the part of the attorneys
for Masterson TO show dsrespect for
the Supreme Court. We simply
brought out facts in our brief, which,
in our opinion, we're the same as shown
in similar cases in which appellate
courts have held otherwise than the
present decision. We did not intend
to offend the Judges of the Supreme
Court"
Judge Sheppard Barclay is one Of
the best known and most highly re-
spected attorneys in Missouri, having
been elected TO the Supreme Bench
and having served by appointment of
Gov Dockery us one of the Judges
of the ST. Louis Court Of Appeals.
In each of these high judicial positions
he sustained Statewide reputation
as an exceedingly able and fair jurist,
and his personal character has always
been above reproach.
Our Judicial officials need to realize
that the ermine does not remove them
from just criticism of the bar and the
common people, and their continu-
alton in Office depends upon their
official acts as weighed by watchful
constituency. The common people
will be slow to believe that Judge
Barclay should be thus humiiated.

Missourians Are Good.

Is it prosperity or a wave OF moral
reform sweeping the State that ac-
counts for the fact that only COS con.
victs were received at the Missouri
Pcnitentiary during the first eleven
months of 1906, whereas during the
same time last year the number was
S7S?
Taking into account the further fact
that twenty-five Of the ia counties
sent not single convict to Jefferson
City during these eleven months OF
1906 we are encouraged to believe
that Missourians are so happy that
they have found ii easy to keep al
through tho year their New Years
resolutions to be good.

Christmas at State Hospital No. 4

One Of the most delightful gather
ings Of the season was held in Folk
Hall at Hospital No. 4 on Christmas
night. 1t was delightful, not only be-
cause OF its unique character, but be-
cause it carried out the Christ spirit,
who said: "When thou makest n
dinner or a supper, call not thy friends,
nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen,
nor thy rich neighbors, lest they also
bid thee again, and recompense be
made thee. But when thou makest a
feast, call the poor, the manned, the
lame, the blind; and thou shalt be
blessed, for they cannot recompense
thee; for thou shalt be recompensed
at the resurrection OF the just"
Over four hundred patients as.
scmbled in the new aud beautiful hall.
Under the direction of DR.. Kuhn the
following very interesting program
was carried out to the delight Of all
present:
Observation-Disclosures.
Chorus-Choir.
lnvocation-Rev. Edw. Overs.
Song, "Bethlchem Bells.

We have received an unsigned
circular urging thut the nearly
$500, 900 refunded to Missouri
about two years ago by the Nation.
al Government for war expenses
incurred during the civil war, be
used to erect q memorial to Mis-
souri soldiers. 1t further suggests
as memorial the erection on the
campus of the State University al
Columbia "a great liberty building
which shall be Missouri's Hall OF
Fame But why there' Because
the State University is located al
Columbia is hardly a sufficient
reason why, if a memorial to Mis-
souri, soldiers is to be erected, II
should be placed on the University
campus. There is some talk OF the
building of a new State Capitol
more in keeping with the dignity,
wealth and greatness of our State.
If this is done, why not place in ii
a memorial Hall Of Fame, such as
some of the more modern State
capitols havef 1t strikes us that
the State capitol would be the
proper place for a memorial to our
soldiers, il one is to be erected.

Hon. Charles +. Cochran of st.
Joseph, Congressman for three
terms from that district, died at
his home on the 10Th, in the 6lst
year of his age. He was the author
of the corrupt practice act of this
State, which was introduced by
him while member of the State
Senate. He was at one time editor
of the st. Joseph Gazette, and
after his retirement from Congress
in 1903, he commenced the publ

1T looks as if Senator Foraker
and President Roosevelt will be
able to convince the country that
there should be no third term, "
remarks the Kansas City journal
The President has succeeded quite
effectually by himself in convincing
the country of that fact; what
Senator Foraker appears to be
after is to head off the President s
naming his own successor.

Prayer" which appealed to me so
that invested in several for II few
people dear to me. But believing
in passing along so good a thing |
produce it here. Cut it out and

Obi Powers that be, make me

Teach me to know and observe
the Rules of the Game.
Give to int to mind my own
business at all times and to lose
no good opportunity of holding my

Help me not to cry for the
moon or over spilled milk.
Grant me neither to prefer nor
to welcome cheap praise; to dis
tinguish sharply between senti-
ment and sentimentality, cleaving
to the one and despising the
other.
When it is appointed for me
to suffer, let me, so far as humane
ly possible, take example from the
dear well bred beasts, and &c
away quietly to bear my suffering
by myself.
Give me always to be n gooC

away with the Christmas season as
time of gift giving and making
it entirely a church festival, ignOr-
ing all the fairy stories about Santa

will have none of that, and we will
continue to hang up our stockings,

FROM We ucu OOSerreF.
A swarm Of bees on Water street took
possession Of a store in Auburn and furnished
amusement to a large crowd OF spectators
that gathered on the opposite side Of the
street.
The bees resented any intrusion. and any.
body who came within ten feet Of the window
and awning where they swarmed received a
sting or two. Victims were plentiful. and
the cruel spectators. out Of harms way. took
Hendish glee at the victims antics as one
after another was driven up the street fol-
lowed by a part OF the swarm.
One man strolling ~leisurely along came into
contact with one Of the sharp points on the
end Of a bee. and his surprise was so vigorously
evidenced that he attracted the attention Of
the entire swarm, and. thTustinR his umbrella

The sidewalk was covered with dead bees.

An immense store of honey has been dis
covered bstw cen the beams and joists Of the
residence Of Mrs. J. u. Nary. Schrader street.
IL was evidently the accumulation OF years.
for the honey formed a solid mass six inches
thick, two feet wide and fourteen feet high,
extending from the basement TO the beams
which support the first story, and completely
nlling q section Of the wall.
The bees entered their storehouse through
a knothole in a board. IL was this that first
attracted Mrs. Nazry's attention. With the
aid OF q gardener she investigated Despite
wells and gloves both were severely stung
by the myriads Of bees. which resented the
Intrusion.
There are many gardens in the ~neighbor-
hood in which Mrs. Nary resides, and It was
from the flowers in these and in the adjacent
park that the bees secured the substance.
Unable to crowd any more inSo the space
which they had appropriated. however, they
no longer worked, but contented themselves
with living upon what they had already
stored. Now. however. they will have to

Keeping Friends with Bees.
Erom he Lon don Standard.

FTOm Tie Lon don 0TdnddTd.
A contributor mentions q singular custom
adhered TO by many country people who keep
bees. 10 Is that OF telling the bees whenever
anything unusual Is about to take place or
has takan place. such as . death. birth or
marriage. 1t Is believed that II this we're not
done the bees would cav the live or some
misfortune would befall the family.
In illustration the correspondent says that
his brother had a good many hives, and some
years ago. when his daughter died, the bees
all left. The old gardener at once attributed
II to his having forgotten to give notice to the
bees. who were duly informed the next time
there was a death In the family, and they
remained In their hives.
