The office of lodge reporter of the

the interesting news regarding events of
interest in this lively branch of the
Fraternal Brotherhood will appear as
usual in the columns of The Herald, for
it is held both inside and outside the
lodge by a great number of fraternai
people that the agency of the press
greatly aids the fraternal work en-

QUEEN BEES UNDER ESPIONAGE

Sequel to Plea From Honolulu That
Safeguard Is Established in In
terest of Bee Keepers.

Hereafter queen bees who desire to visit

there. will have to he more careful than
they have been in the past
Secretary Wilson of the. Department of
Agriculture and George won Leneerke
Meyer. Postmaster General have deereed
that it shall IL thus. II seems strange
that two cabinet officers of II great gov
eminent should see fit "a interfere iu the
affairs of bees, who are noted for Winding
their own business. but il is nevertheless
true, as the following order. issued by
Postmaster General Meyer today. proves:
The Secretary OF Agriculture has re-
ferred TO the Postmaster General a letter
from the acting governor OF Hawaii. in
which il is stated that the board of COM
mlssloners of agriculture ard forestry
of the territory of Hawaii have found il
impossible to safeguard compile. ely the
interests of the bee keepers in the terri
tory In their enforcement of the quaran-
tine restrictions against bee diseases for
want of an hority to examine and inspect
queen bees coming to the territory
through the mails
Caution Over Imported Bees
In accordance with the suggestion the
Postmaster General has notified The Sec
at Honolulu has been instructed tn treat
packages of bees arriving in Hawaii in
mails from other countries in accordance
with such quarantine measures as the
commissioners of agriculture and forestry
OF the territory of Hawaii may declare to
be necessary in order to safeguard the
interests of bee keepers in the matter of
preventing the Importation OF bees Suf-
fering from infectious diseases"
Just how far the postmaster at Homo
lulu may go in his examination of the
queen bees is not set forth. but he will
hardly he guilty of as great iudeIicacy as
is frequently displayed by New York
customs officers in going through the
trunks of women who are returning from
Paris.
This is not the first time the Hawaiian
bees have run afoul of the DEPARTMENT
of Agriculture. Some time ago u LOT OF
them went off on bee jag and gathered
d sticky, Saccharine substance from Ger
tain plants that they met. This substance
they carried home and made into honey
What they made was real honey but
with the unusual substance they had put
in it it was declared not up to the pure
food specifications by DR.. Wiley. Thus
did the Department of Agriculture
through it's chief chemist, go nature one
better.

ENGLAND's PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The Work Is to Form Englishman's
Ideal, the Gentleman

FROM tue Revue fOHr les ffdDcalS.
The foreign mind regards the great
colleges of Oxford Cambridge and the
rest as the schools of England, but TO
hold that opinion is to err, because the
universities do MOI represent the nation.
Their influence is limited to the higher
of the classes. They are Venerable-thCSe
splendid temples of learning; we revere
them as the glorious legacy left by the
past. Yet should they disappear tomor-
row England would find that they have
had but little to do with the formation
Of her public mind. But 10 lose the
public school would be to lose a factor
of the national power and change the
character of England.
The English themselves do not know
all the public school means to them
nor does any one recognize the colossal
strength of their influence, past and pres
emit Their action is direct and Indirect
direct on those who attend them: indi-
rect on he private schools. The public
schools force the private schools to main
ain an appearance OF the effort and the
excellence OF public schools. The public
school is living organism; society
which, though held within narrow boun-
diaries, embraces ali forms of the active
and reactive colectivities of civilized So
ciety at large. Never in any country has
pedagogy possessed a more finely finished
or more smoothly running system than we
find in the English schools. The
school teaches the English lads the lesson
of life; TO be man and to rule his con-
duct by the high law of the citizens duty
to himself and to his feilow-citizens.

STORY OF MEMS FEATURES.
No Art to Find Minds Construction

From Scribner's =.

From ScrlDnef g
I used to pride myself upon my power
to read faces casually encountered which
is, | suppose, but another way of saying
that used to be young. Whole character
sketches could ! make out of the curve of
the lips, the lines of the forehead. the con-
tour of cheek and of brow, and. as / never
again saw most of the people in question.
and never really knew them, nobody was
ever the wiser or the worse for my minute
interpretations. 1t is only lately that /
have begun to suspect that my instinct
was more fallible than | had thought,
lady than | had dreamed. and that, in ere
ating faces. as elsewhere, she follows her
usual method of almost wholly concealing
her meaning by partially revealing it.
1t is from actual observation that We
have grown to associate certain inner
qualities with certain characteristics of
cut and of colorlng, or are fiction and
drama responsible for our conventional
beliefs? No amount of Enlightenment can
keep us from identifying golden hair with
innocence: the black locks and heavy
brow of the arch villain of melodrama;
the square chin of the man of deciSion
the straightforward gaze of conscious vir-
tue-all these time-worn generalities DOM
mate, though We do not know it, our OBJ
servation. If We had the use of our eyes
we should see, | fancy, that in real life
the villain wears q look of conscious Vir-
tue more convincingly than does any one
else. and that unlike his image in fiction,
he almost never realizes that he is a vii
lain. We hide real vision under the
shreds and pathos of worn-out fancy. and

REAL CONQUERORS.
The Exchanging Character of the
Saxon Race.
From Scribner's.


This tribe of Saxons had. by accident or
wise leadership, happened upon the very
country best suited to them. A fertile
island. cut off from the rest of the world,
and with room for all so that each one
might with his family have kingdom of
his own. This, with as little machinery
of government as possible, and yet all
ready to combine equals in sef-de-
Tense. But they made their land pro-
ductive. as they became rich. they became
the prey of other peoples from northwest
ern Germany and what is now the Scan
dinavian peninsula, and were forced TO
defend their possessions and their customs
against Angles, Danes and Normans.
1t is a curious feature of the abiding,
unrelenting purpose of these Saxons to
govern themselves, and to be let alone,
that, though they were conquered in turn
by Angles, Danes and Normans, they
swallowed up all three in the end and i'm
posed their customs, their language, their
habit of mind and their institutions upon
each of the invaders in turn. They would
have nothing to do with the half-devel-
oped feudalism of Angles and Danes, nor
with the fully developed feudalism of Will
liam the Conqueror and his followers.
The conqueror claimed that the land was
his and that every holder of land owed
fealty to his personally. 1t took about
hundred years for the Saxon idea to pre-
vail over this feudalistic notion. and the
result was Magma Charta. The Magma
Charta, wrested from King John by the
-,orman barons. was in reality the shak-
ing off of personal allegiance to a chief
tain by the Norman barons, aided by the
Saxon gentry, who had finally imbued
them also with their own love of indie
pendence and a free government. They
insisted then, and have maintained ever
since, that they derived their rights, their
liberties and their laws, not from king.
but from themselves. In the days of
William the Conqueror their king was
elective, though chosen from the reigning
house. AS late as 1tS9 the commons voted
that King James had abdcated and that
the throne was vacant. They chose their
own rulers, and no doubt would do so
again today if necessary. 1t is much too
long story to go, step by step, through
the recital of this development. 1t con-
Germs US here only to note these unchang-
ing characteristics of the race maintained
and strengthened through centuries of
war, tumult and conquest.
