he obtained the honey which is one OF
the specials" on his daily menu.
Two weeks ago." said Mr.. Gushee to,
Corporation Counsel Whalen, who was
the host of a party of politicians at
ClaremOnt, II noticed a swarm of bees
under the tree down there overhanging
the drive just where the carriages
stand at the dinner hour. l offered $40
to anybody who would remove them
and nobody wanted to take the offer
until one of the policemen detailed to
guard Grants tomb heard of it. He
said he knew all about bees and l told
him to go ahead. He went.down in the
basement and got an empty sugar bar
rel. Then he demanded a sheet and bor-
rowed a pair of buckskin gloves from
a gardener. He spread the sheet on the
drive under the tree and set the barrel,
from which he had removed a couple
Of slaves, on it's side. Then he climbed
the tree and gently shooeu the bees
down to the sheet, whence he gathered
them up into the barrel. This was
| covered with the same sort of mos.
quito netting with which he had en-.
veloped his own head and taken back
of the hotel. There must have beer
three or four quarts of bees, and they
settled into their new home as natural.
ly as though they had come to River
side Park for that purpose. They be
gan to hive at once, and for the las
two weeks I've been getting four o.
five pounds of honey right along ant
the bees are still at home and at work
Mr.. Whalen remarked laughingl.
that as the bees were evidently taking
sweetness from the blossoms in tn
park it would be in order for the city tt
increase Mr.. Gushee's rent. 1t is sup
posed that the bees came across tn
Hudson River from New Jersey.

Then they kicked at the motto.
Mine was this: This shows how I

didn't think that sounded right. I
don't know-guess it wasn't fancy
enough. I like to say what I mean
straight, and say it quick. But I let
'em change it. The two things mean
the same l guess.
Then a lot Of people objected to

why, there have been people here

generally they have bought some

Somebody buys a barrel, and they tell
their friends about it, and that is
the way it goes.
And 7 have sold thousands of cords
Of wood, too. That's why I have a
wood pile on ONE of the small stones.
Sometimes ir the winter I have as
many as fifty mem chopping for me.
OF course the wood isn't all cordwood;
some of it goes In for lumber. With
this lumber I have built houses, when
L didn't want to- sell it, and that's kept
the cost of building down for me.
For I tell your lumber is a great item
