Found Bees in a Stovepipe.

Incensed that their nest in stove pipe was disturbed by fire, swarm of bees attacked Jacob Parker, an oc- togenarian, and his son Charles, 23 years old, stinging each scores of times. In an almost hysterical state the two walked to the residence of Dr. J. w. Pinero, where they were treated. It will be several days, it is said, be- fore the two will be recognizable on account of the swelling of their fea- lures.
 The father had started fire in a stove at Nictown lane, east Of Old York road. The smoke refused to go up the chimney. The son was called. He reached his right arm into the stovepipe and the bees came out to greet him.-Philadelp Inquirer.

AMERICAN ATHLETES THE BEST.
Reason Advanced for Superiority Over
 the British.

Although bigness and great strength are needed to throw the weights, scarcely less essential are cleverness and technique. Footwork, distribution of the weight of the body, these and other details only instinct. long prac- tice and intelligently directed effort can master. And here our undergrad uates have had no difficulty in sur passing their English cousins. When ever the two have met, the perform ance of the more casual Oxford and Cambridge men have been almost farcical, and, indeed, men like Flaw, Dewitt, Beck, Sheldon and others have quite equaled the performance of all but the best of the older men of the athletic clubs. It is not, of course, any superiority in strength which has brought this about, merely painstak- ing thoroughness and care for form This is the same thing which has made them jump higher and run more gracefully-a characteristic thing and one, therefore, that makes their success so far as it goes, really Amer ican.-Outing Magazine.
 Rather "Josh."
 Hildegarde Hetherington, the edit or of the List O Lovers column, sneered.
 Here is somebody trying to get gay" she said to the book reviewer. Trying to kid my column. Listen to his dope.
 Dear List O Lovers: I am farmer of 57 years, five feet three, inclined to embonpoint, and am considered very good-looking. I have two pigs, and, as am running short of bacon, l want to kill one of them for salting, but as love both of them dearly, I don't know which to destroy. One is blue eyed and fair, pretty and gentle little darling, answering to the name of Lil- lian. The other, Enid, is reserved and stately, black-haired, with proud, black eyes, but of very upright and gen. erous disposition. Having lost both my father and mother, wish you would tell me which pig will make the best bacon for me.-Ronald A."

 All right" said the other. 'T'm lawyer. I'll see that you are well paid for what you do and no trouble. Come along"

 A brief ceremony was performed. and moment after the couple had been pronounced husband and wife the clock struck 12. The bride fell limp into a chair and famed herself vigorously.
 Now make out certificate" said the lawyer to the justice, stating that you married these two before 12 o'clock this day" then, turning to Bob, "If you will accompany me and Miss Cur ney'-

 Must that be got right off?" asked Bob. There's been hurry enough about getting into the thing. would like a little time about getting out of it."
 The lawyer wiped the precipitation from his forehead and said more de- lberately:
 No hurry about that, 1 assure you. Perhaps l may as well explain briefly the occasion for this hurried marriage, and we can all meet to arrange further plans later. Miss Gurney'-

 Beg pardon-Mrs. Southwick-re- turned today from long trip in for eign lands, having been delayed on the voyage home. A year ago her uncle died leaving a will bequeathing her his fortune on condition that she marry his son, Elmer Gurney, on or before 12 o'clock today. If Elmer Gurney re- fused or died she would inherit any, way If married on or before the said date. This was to secure succession. Gurney died week ago."

The savage King" is one of the most elaborate and beauti- fully melodramatic productions on the road. The scenery is the finest that tn estudiOS can furn- ish, and is painted from photo- graphs made in Mexico. The cos tunes and stage accessories are very rich and the powerful and thrilling, dramatic situations, make the play a series of beau tiful stage pictures, Though it is melodrama of the sensational sort, there is not a shot fired during the entire play, and it is possessed of real literary and dramatic merit of a high order.
 This great production repre- sents more than half years work by an able corps of scenic artists and skilled mechanics and will give our people chance to see, not only the beautiful scen- ic equipment, but decidedly the most original play on the stage of this country.
 1t is something to be able to say that at least we can herald the coming of a new play, full of new ideas, situations and startling effects. ,Such is true however, of the forthcoming pro duction of "A Savage King which is put on in a most artis- tic manner complete in every de tail. The play will be seen at the Opera House on Tuesday night Sept. 20.

The most successful religious drama ever written will be pre- scented at Greeson Opera House Sept. 21at when Clarence Ben nett's "The Holy City" will be the offering. This remarkable play has been witnessed in the few years which have elapsed since it's first presentation, by more persons than any other play ever produced in this coun- try. This is because it makes an appeal to that larger class who infrequently attend the theatre

COMPELS HUSBAND
TO PERMIT AUTOPSY
ON BODY OF WIFE
Husband Endeavors to Carry Out
Wishes of Spouse, but Cor
oner Overrules
Him

Despite his determination to honor
the request of his wife that a sur
geon's knife should never touch her
body, even after death, Henry Biescar,
proprietor of the Los Angeles Wire
Manufacturing company. living at 1919
South Olive street, was compelled to
withdraw his opposition and allow the
coroner to hold an autopsy over the
body of Mrs. Biescar.
The woman died of heart failure
early yesterday morning. Biescar was
awakened by a strange sound and
found his wife gasping for breath. She
died almost Immediately. The woman
frequently had attacks of heart trou-
BILE, and at one time not long ago
told her husband she would die soon.
The body was taken to the under
taking establishment of Riedman,
Meyer & Co. Because Mrs. Biescar
died without the attendance of ply
sician it was necessary for the under
takers to have an autopsy performed
before a death certificate could be is
sued.
At first Biescar refused to allow this
to be done. but at last agreed to the
autopsy. 1t revealed the fact that Mrs.
Biescar died of enlargement of the
heart.
The funeral services will be held at
the family home today at 2 o'clock and
interment will be in Calvary cemetery.
