OF INTEREST TO eEEkEspgRs.
English Legal Ruling Makes Indus
srious Insects Wild Beasts.

The Law Journal OF London prints
two Interesting cases concerning the
rights OF beeSeepers and their neigh.
bors. In one case the question OF
property In bees was the issue: IN the
other, ii was question OF nuisance.
"A beekeepers swarm flies into
neighbours garden and settles on NJ
apple tree" says the Law Journal.
First question: Has the beekeeper
still the property in the swarm. or has
II become his neighbours and annexed
to the ownership OF the tree?
Answer: The swarm is stin the
property of the beekeeper. but he eau
not so and recover It. IL the neigh
Dor objects. without committing n tres
pass And this is what the neighbor
In Quantril VS.. Sprague did.
He not only objected to the bee
keeper coming after his property. but
he shook down the swarm from the
apple tree, with the result that the
bees were lost. Now. I'm this he was
wrong. The shaking down OF the
swarm was not only an unneighborly
act, but tortious In law
1T was analogous TO the case whore
man drives trespassing cattle on his
land TO a great distance, or hunts them
or with a fierce dog. i'm which case
he is liable for the injury. ~ any.

Here, then, was the contest OF de.
merits trespass on one side, tort on
the other. conflict best met. the
learned Judge thought, by making each
party pay his own costs.
"ln the other case-of nuisance
the beekeeper had ten hives with half
million bees at work, and he might
fairly congratulate hknsef on the
law-abiding instincts of his swarms,
for they had only stung five persons
In two years. 1t seems very moder.
ate allowance; still. Il was too much
for the stung plaintiff, who was not
satisfied with a boarding which the
beekeeper has providently set up, but
claimed an interim injunction to re
strain the keeping OF bees altogether
so near his property.
I'm the course OF the argument thu
theory was preached on behalf OF the
beekeeper that bee rs entitled to his
trst sting; but this Is erroneous. a
bee is ferae naturae, not mansuetae
naturae, like a dog. and must be kept
AS iger-at the keepers peril"
