WATCHDOG" BEE
DIES AT ITS POST

STINGAREE, Cal. July 5.--lnstead
of using watchdogs to prevent thieves
from stealing his poultry. George Mey-
ers, a prominent farmer of this COM
munity, employs bees for the purpose.
They are not honest bees, but special
variety, equipped with large and violent
barbs.
They are intelligent bees, too, and
the family Of Mr. Meyers has come to
regard them as pets. 1t is no uncom-
mon thing to see one of the children
stroking a bees back and permitting it
to eat sugar out of the hand. When
stranger visits the house the bees are
lowering around ready to make an at
tack, but they always retire when any
of the friends or neighbors of the fam
lily make call.
The most affectionate member of the
hive Is Iretty little insect called Bea-
trice. She will answer her masters
whistle, and wags her tail when petted.
Several nights ago thief entered the
henhouse, and was wringing the necks
of several fowls, when Beatrice heard
the commotlon. Quickly flying to the
scene, she boldly attacked the intruder
and stung him so severely that he
dropped the chicken and fed.
Unfortunately, as he went out, he
slammed the door, and in her haste to
catch him, Beatrice was caught against
the sill and was squashed to a jelly.
When her corpse was found the next
morning the grief of the Meyers chill
dren was pathetic.

FACTS THOSE WHO DRONE OUT SINGING REMARKS ABOUT
BUSY BEES SAVE
HER FROM POVERTY

HONEY BROOK, Pa, July 5.-Bees
saved the little home of Miss Cynthia
Wing and prevented the kindly old
lady from going to the almshouse.
Miss Wing resides near here, and
because of her invalid state she has
had a hard time getting along. All
that she owns is a small house, with a
few acres of ground. Doctors bills
and other unusual expenses during the
last winter compelled her to borrow
money, and she gave notes for the
amount, $110
Recently she found that she was I'M
able to meet the notes and judgment
was obtained by the cruel and grasp
ing lender. He began proceedings to
sell her out and take the property.
In her woe Miss Wing wandered
about the house and finally reached
the garnet. Here she found steady
stream of bees flying In and out of a
window. The bees, she found, had es-
tablished themselves between the floors
and when she lifted loose board the
space was filled with honey.
With the assistance of several neigh
bors the flooring was taken up and the
honey collected in buckets and bar
rels. It was not of high quality but
there was about 1900 pounds of it. The
entire batch was sold for 1882.
One naturally would suppose that
Miss Wing would preserve the bees.
She did not. Instead she poured boil
ing water over them, declaring that
they Uttered up the place.

LONG BEACH, July 5.-Manager e.
E. Archer of the Long Beach bath
house brought nicely into play today
his knowledge of dentistry in firmly
replacing an upper incisor tooth seven
eighths of an inch in length in the
mouth of Roy Parker, II years old, of
Santa Ana.
Parker knocked the tooth out cleanly
by striking his mouth against the side
of the bath house plunge while sliding
on his knees.
When carried into the emergency
hospital by Patrick Burns, plunge
chers arms. Upon being revived the
manager asked him what had become
of his tooth, and the lad showed him
that he had it In his hand. He had
dived under the water after his painful
accident and recovered the incisor.
The bath house manager worked the
tooth back firmly into the cavity
whence it had been broken and gave
the boy a piece of cotton gauze to bite
on. Young Parker was then hurried
to the office of DR.. R. E. Neel, dentist,
who sutured the tooth and Informed
Mr.. Archer that as a result of his
quick treatment the tooth would be as
firmly fixed as ever in three days
time.
Charles Jones, aged II, of Walnut
avenue stepped on a sharp shell on
the beach this afternoon and cut the
bottom of his left foot severely. He
also received treatment in the emer-
gency hospital.

FAKE BEESWAX
INVENTOR STUNG

BESORE, Pa, July 5.-Thomas
Snavely, who started factory a few
months ago to make artificial bees
wax out of paraffin, has quit the busi-
ness and moved from this agricultural
section. He was driven away by the
bees, which, even If they do fill an
humble sphere, have some self respect
and work in harmony with the pure
food department.
The inventor had process Of color
ing and softening paraffin so that it
could not be distinguished from the
real beeswax. 1t could be used for
every purpose. even to greasing irons
used in ironing shirts and in waxing
thread.
Somehow the bees got wind Of the
project, and, feeling that they would
be put out of business. they organized
a revolt. They attacked Mr.. Snavely
where he felt 1t most, and they kept 1t
up day after day.
At first, being swelled up with pride,
he ignored the assaults, but delegation
after delegation visited him and gave
him such singing rebukes that he
gave up the fight and closed the fac
tory. He departed from town and his
only comment when spoken to about
the failure of the undertaking was
"StunR!"

OVERDOSE OF STINGS
FOR RHEUMATISM

DRONEVILLE. July 5.-Having
heard that the sting of bees was a
cure for rheumatism, Slocum Solomon
made up his mind that he would try it
on himself. For many years he had
suffered from rheumatic pains in his
back and was in misery. Nothing
seemed to help him.
Mr.. Solomon did not know Just how
many bees were needed to bring about
a cure, but as his case was very Sc
we're he came to the conclusion that it
would be no more than right to try
full hive of the insects.
He got the bees, and applying
streak of molasses along his spinal
column, induced more than 1000 to set
tie there. Then, with a small switch,
he started to stir them up. They did
not need much, for 1t was a cloudy
day, and they were feeling rather de-
pressed. They got into action right
away.
Mr.. Solomon got agitated about the
same time, and in his run to the creek
he made the fastest running of his
whole life. Strange to say, he was not
cured either. He wrote to Harrisburg
about it, and was informed by Dr..
Surface that he had taken an over
dose. and should try 1t again.

BELLEVILLE CUTS THE

ST. LOUIS, July 5.-Belleville makes
fresh hid against Alton as Gretna

county cut down from $1.5O to 81. The
reduction is expected to help Belleville's
marrying justices.
County Clerk A. A. Miller is re-

that class. No one kicked, and the
county got the revenue.
Recently Capt. R. Pearce of Adams

Miller. He noticed the fee paid by a
couple and called attention to the fact
that the last census gave st. Clair

BIG KITE DRAGS BOY
OFF F0UR-STORY ROOF
But 1t Breaks His Fall and He Lands
Unhurt in Pile of Loose Sand
Which Workmen Were
Using

NEW YORK, July 5.-The Wright
brothers, Santos Dumont and other
such birds will be greatly interested
In the flight that young George Earl
took in East New York yesterday.
Earl, IL years old, has a big, stoutly-
made box kite. To fly it he went to
the roof of an uncompleted four-story
building at Howard avenue and Dean
street. A brisk wind was blowing at
$40 p. m. and the kite had a pull as
strong as Secretary Taft's pull with
President Roosevelt. To hold the
soaring, Juggling kite more securely
young Earl wrapped the strong kite
string around his right forearm and
wrist.
Step by step the kite yanked Earl
toward the edge of the roof. He saw
his danger and, with his left hand,
tried hastily to unwrap the Irvine from
his arm. Another pull and he was
dragged from the roof.
His long flight downward-like some
which aeronauts take-ended on a pile
of loose sand which the plasterers and
masons were using. Those who saw
him declare that in the fall Earl turned
a complete somersault.
The kite dropped with him; it could
not sustain the boys suddenly added
weight, but its resistance broke the
force of his fall; the kite string did not
break.
Men, dreading to find the boy dead,
ran to him; very much scared, he
picked himself up and rubbed his back
and legs. DR.. Sullivan came in an am
bulance from st. Magy's hospital,
Brooklyn, and found that Earl was
suffering only from fright. He was not
even badly bruised, and after resting
awhile and rolling up his kite string
he walked home.

BORING BEES WORK
IN WOOD FACTORY

WAXWORKS. Cal, July SIT is a
well known fact that the white-headed
bee will not sting and can be handled
with impunity, and also by the small
est child. This bee, which is a trifle
larger than the humble bee, also has
the ability to bore holes through wood.
1t was for these two reasons that
Charles Leech utilized them in his
woodworking establishment instead of
augers. He has already saved large
amount Of money in doing away with
extra machinery and he has cut down
his wage roll
Mr.. Leech. when he has any con-
siderable quantity of holes to be bored,
marks out the size and starts the in
telligent and industrious bees to work.
He knows just how fast they work,
and can estimate to fraction of an
inch the depth of the holes.
When the required time for any job
is up he blows the whistle and the in
sects stop at once. They are rewarded
with Jumps of sugar.
The only drawback in this is the
fact that the bees hibernate in winter,
but Mr.. Leech thinks that he will be
able to raise g strain that viii stand
cold weather.
