Honeybees are generally credited
with instructive skill In making the
cells of the comb hexagonal in shape.
but 1t Is probable that this construction.
is merely the ordinary result of me-,
chanical laws. Solitary bees always,
make circular cells, and the bees in a.
hive no doubt make them circular also,
but mechanical pressure forces them
into a hexagonal form. A well known
naturalist, in speaking of the matter
says that all cylinders made OF soft,
pliable substances become hexagonall
under such circumstances.

}1roquois, s. d., Feb. 49,. F. Halla-
day, of this place, who recently retired
from the office of state auditor, and
who by reason of his official position
kept in close touch with affairs affect
ing the kind of material to be used in
he new state capitol building, states
that a number of newspapers and some
of the Pierre correspondents have made
the statement that when the new cap
itol building bill was before the state
senate it was amended so as to
strengthen the provision for using
South Dakota stone.
hi is not true said Mr.. Halliday,
Exactly the reverse action was taken.
The original bill provided that in the
event that home stone could be pro-
cured at a cost not to exceed 5 per
cent. in excess of other material it was
to be used, but If not, material of like
quality was to be purchased. The term
i k quality was stricken out and the
words other suitable material sub
stituted.
The representatives who favored
home material at any cost and under
any condition fought the amendmen~,
but We're largely out voted by those who
dld not want the commission put into
the power of a few quarrymen Like
quality technically construed, would
have prevented the commission from
using outside stone unless it happened
to be absolutely identical with the home
product"

The largest crowd ever in Dreamland, next to Mrs. Fiske, witnessed the above beautiful comedy drama, and it is safe to say, the best satisfied crowd It was really a surprise, and every one joined in praising Jolly Della Pringle, and her well balanced company of artists. As was to be expected, from the name, ev- cry act was full of lively and sensa tional situations, and thrilling climax es. The climax to the third act was no doubt the best thing ever seen in Globe, the large audience fully appre- ciating it's merit, and compelling three curtains before it would be satisfied.
 The specialties were all good, and entirely new here. Tonight the bill will be GA Bachelors Romance, which is a splendid comedy, full of good dialogue, and lively situations.

A BROKEN PRECEDENT

Nine days after taking his seat in the senate Senator Jefferson Davis of Ar kansas delivered himself of formal speech and thus broke one of the time honored precedents of that most digni' fed body-which has declared through years of tradition and custom that a new member ought to be seen and not heard during his salad days, while he IS yet too raw to be digested. But the new senator was eager to make noise, and his constituents way down in Ark ansas were straining their ears listen ing for the sounds of it. Trusts being to him as red bunting to a bull, the senator charged the trusts, tossed them on his horns, gored them, paved and trampled them under his hoofs-and what little life was left to be fright ened out of them with the stertorous blasts of his hot breath. He broke a precedent. But did he do any good'
 At first thought the breaking of such a precedent might not seem to amount to anything; yet precedents, when es' tablished and maintained throughout years by the traditions of the ablest body of men in the country, must have behind them some extraordinarily good cause for existence. They must serve some good purpose, and that purpose must have been recognized, else they would long since have been broken and discharged by other men fully as able, as ambitious and as daring as the new senator from Arkansas. To many of those who heard MT. Davis speech, his very infraction of the precedent proved its value; they saw how it had kept many another from doing what he was doing, and it seemed good thing. For though the senator had announced him. self as coming to Washington to "stir things up," and his oration was the first "stir" he made, it is obvious by what he had to say that he had not been a senator long enough yet to learn that words and more words and words again do not accomplish much. They must have influence behind them. The same speech from man who had all ready made himself a power in the chamber, by his display of legislative genius and statesmanship in the com mittee rooms, might have had great force. As it was, his fellows senators listened to him with respect, but not with conviction. His was nothing but the exploding of blank cartridge.
 The result is that the senate has taken the new members s measure before he has had time to grow and he will have difficulty in proving to it hereafter that he is tall enough and strong enough to do a man s work. The first bout in the
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1907-12-19

wrestling match between the senator and the trusts is over and it is seen that the senator is the only one left breathless; the trusts are not even pant ing. How can he win the other falls'
 The old precedent was a good thing because it kept the raw recruits from expending their ammunition before they had learned to shoot straight. It pre- vented innocent bystanders from being hit instead of the target and saved the tympanums of sensitive ears much pain. Toll the bells for dead precedent, and mourn it's loss.-Washington Post.
