ROYALTY COULD MOVE ON.
tt Was When Buffalo sips Show
Reached the Eternal CITY.

Buffalo Bills Wild West arrived
under the walls of the Eternal City,
and toward the great scouts whoop-
ing arena we bent our steps, writes
Booth Harrington in Everybodys.
The dance was on when we arrived,
but we found an usher who was
showing and haranguing a confused,
seat seeking crowd of Italians, ex-
horting them in homelike Nebras-
kan words.
"Everythings gone all to thunder
today" he remarked to US Grossly.
"That there king and queens here"
His manner of alluding to the
royal personages suggested that he
thought of them as cards in a deck

"Then we'll have to give up our
box?" some one asked nervously.
"Nawl You got the tickets, amt
you? You git it'll Come on"
A lady and three gentlemen we're
seated in the box numbered upon
our coupons. "You git out O. there" :"
said our guide informally. "That
amt your box"
There was an exclamation of hor-
ror from an upper tier, and one of
the English speaking Italian usherS
came rushing down an aisle with a
blanched face. He bent himself
louble before the occupants of the
oox, uttering stricken apologies in
Italian, which were abruptly check

We interfered at this point and
effected compromise by squeezing
more chairs into the box, to the
panied surprise of our usher, who
as he slouche1 away manifested his
opinion of us as "easy."

"No, thanks" the archbishop Ia

The clergyman's feelings were
deeply hurt, for the visit had meant
some expense and much anxiety to
him. He unburdened his soul to

Our Honeybees.

All the honeybees in this country
having originally been imported
from Europe or Asia, there is nc
racial difference between the wild
ones and the domesticated. Those
that live in trees are simply the de-
scendants of those that from time
to time have taken "French leave
from their owners hives and revert
ed to a state of nature. The vast
bulk of the wild bees are of the
German or black race, while the
standard domesticated bee is the
Italian. But that, however, is only
because the Germans were the first
to be introduced here. Just when
the Germans came is in doubt, but
t was some time in the seventeenth
century. Certainly it was not until
near the close of the eighteenth
century that any bees were found
west Of the Mississippi. The In
dams used to say they could mark
the advance of the white man by
the appearance of bees in the woods

hotel where "Gee-Gee" was staying

and begged that Grossmith would
write few words Beyond the bare
record of his stay. The ex-Savoyard
turned over the leaves to see what
friend had preceded him there and
saw a signature which gave him an
idea. 1t was that of Mrs. Alice
Shaw, the well known "siffleuse,"
and in the book was recorded this
reason for her whistling: 81 whistle

was not many seconds before the
book received this addition: 81 sing

A DRAMATIC EXPERIENCE.
k Had to Do With the Rescue Of
Nordenskjold.

Most dramatic in its experience
of all the 1901 expeditions, hardly
surpassed by any crossing either cir
Gle, was that of the Swedes under
Nordenskjold, says H. L. Bridgman
in the Outing Magazine. Landed
at Snow hill, on Seymour island,
Nordenskjold and his party bade
goodby to Captain Larsen and the
Antarctic, built them a house and
settled down to scientific work for
the summer and, as it turned out,
for the winter. Larsen's instruc-
tions were to reft at the Falkland
islands to give the biologists of the
party chance at Terra del Fuego
and to come back to Snow hill in
the summer of 1902.
That summer and the next win
ter passed, and Nordenskjold and
MS companions saw nothing of Lar
en- or of the Antarctic. One day
hey saw coming over the ice and
'ocks two objects which every one
1T first asserted were emperor pen
gums, but on coming nearer proved
to be Duse and Anderson, who,
landed the year before by Larsen
and cut off by open water from their
proposed journey overland to Snow
ill, had spent nine months in a hut
5uilt of the stones which they could
collect and subsisting on the scanty
supplies left with them, but chiefly
on the penguins and seals they had
been able to kill. Men were never
more warmly welcomed than these
two, wintering unknown within
twenty miles of comrades and head
quarters.
Finally, as hope was almost de-
parting and the summer drawing
fast to close, one fine day Captain
Irizar, commander of the cruiser
dispatched by Argentine, called at
Snow hill and babe Nordenskjold
and his reunited party make ready
To leave for home. The welcome
summons was, of course, willingly
obeyed, but of Larsen were only
here" said the released and re-
ieved Swedes. And the very next
day whom did they see tramping
across the foe but Larsen and five
sturdy sailors from Paulet's island,
where they had wintered after the
Antarctic had been crushed and
sunk by the ice, following a gallant
fight of weeks to keep her afoat
and bring off the party from the
rocks of Snow hill.
The world rejoiced at Norden,
skjold's rescueaand the more when
the scientific results of his long iso-
laton were found to be of the high
est Importance.
