One of the Gray men said after the
close of the session that it was not right
for the outgoing governor to make ap-
pointments so late in his term. He did not
think that the action taken was anything
to the discredit of the men who had been
named for the senate did not have the
message read and the names of the ap-
pointees were not made public.
The only other work of the senate was
the adoption of a resolution providing for
committee clerks and the appointment of
a committee TO examine the books of the
auditor and the treasurer, as is required
by the statue; reception of messages from
the governor transmitting a report of the

FOR FIT ,SARCOPHAGUS

BERLIN, June s.-Berlin has just had
a distinguished stranger. the famous
poet. Gabriel d'Annunzio, within her
gates, although for a short time only.
D'AnnunziO said he is an exceedingly
busy man at present, working as he
does on no less than a dozen plays, and
besides this is greatly taken up with
planning a worthy resting place for his
bones when he shall have died.
He showed a number of designs of
marble sarcophagi submitted to him by
various artists and improved upon by
himself. He said that he had now al
most decided to give the important order
for the sacophagi which is 20 con-
tain his mortal remains 10 the famous

The coffin will be in the style of old

of the wonderful political career of her
son. Winston Churchill. there has been
q serious difference Of opinion between
mother and son over the violent attacks
made by the latter on the London press.
Mrs. West has always been something
of journalist herself, and she has I'm
pressed upon her son that no good can
come from his violence. which is bound
to react upon himself in the end.
Winston Churchill himself is in an
extremely bad temper over the getting
beck at him" articles which have re-
Gently appeared, and which have proved
to the public that this brilliant but err
ratio young man has unsaid and undone
everything he said and did very short
time ago.
His mother. being possessed of more
tact. is doing everything in her power
TO steady her son down, but the son is
in no mood just now for lectures.

further sensational rise of thirty points
in Jug option here in the initial trading
this morning, which jumped the price

vance OF seventy-five points since early
yesterday. AS was the case yesterday,
there was a further scare of a big

Prices bull report The pool on con-
troll of the July option at New Orleans,
which marked up the price Of the July

the price ten points more to 1910 cents
per pound, in sympathy with the rise
here.
AS a result of recent operations. July
has gone from a discount OF thirty
points, In relation TO October, in this
market to a premium, which. at one
time this morning. amounted TO twenty
points. # is now the highest priced
option on the list this side OF January
deliveries. Its strength stimulated an
early advance Of five to ten points in
the rest Of the market, but later this
was lost on heavy Southern selling and
local profit taking.
The days prices were as follows:

RESPECT FOR THE BUSY BEE.

The busy bee comes staggering down
the pike loaded with honey, and If you
are IN her dlrect path and she is tired
and cross after long DAVIS work at
the flower show possibly she hands YOU
a little red one on the neck Yet the
bee has no malice, and may be excused
on the ground of mistake in passing the
lemon to the Innocent bystander. Few
people when suffering from bee stings
think what the bee has been doing. To
make ore pound Of clover honey bees
must deprive 1000 clover blossoms 81
their nectar and 10 do this requires
2.15o.0oO visits 10 the blossoms. In other
words, one bee, to collect enough nectar

cross, tired, or irritated, and gives YOU
