The Tale of the Teasing Bundle Bee
By F, ELIZABETH PERKINS.

rectlOn and then in another against
the meshes of the SPIDERS web that
held him. But he soon found that
it was all in vain, that the more
he struggled the deeper he was be-
coming involved in the web, and his
hum grew angry. Then he saw the
spider that had caught him, and the
spider was chuckling to himself,
heartless chuckle the humble bee
thought it, but it was very much such
a chuckle as he had chuckled him
self many time, when he had taken
all the store of honey from flower
and flown away with it, and at the
sound the humble bee was filed with
rage and fought harder than ever
against the web, but all in vain. Then
the spider ran forward and wound a
fresh rope about leg of the Eee

was so tied up that he could not NOV.
at all.
When he found that it was no use
making any further struggle, the
humble bee began to plead for mercy,
but at this the spider only chuckied
the harder. Then the bee called out
to the flowers to help him. reminding
them that he was one of their oldest
friends and had visited them day
after day for many months, but the
flowers replied, you only visited US
to steal from us. You are no friend
of ours"
Then he turned to the children and
called out to them to help him, and
reminded them that he had sung to
them through many a summer day.
YES" replied the children, but you
only did it to make us jump. You are
no friend of ours"
The old spider was feeling very
sure of his prey, and was smacking
his lips at the feast that was before
him, and thinking over in his mind
what friends he should invite to din
ner. when the humble bee tried new
tactics. eff there is no one here" said
he, who will be friend to me and
set me free for love, perhaps some
one will set me free for honey. I
have a great store OF honey in the
woods and the child who will set me
free again shall have it ALL
At this it was the turn of the chill
dren to smack their lips, for they all
loved honey, and the boy advanced
with stick in his hand and had soon
destroyed the spiders web, so that
the bee escaped and with futter OF
his wings. rose into the air. Follow
me-" he called to the boy, and headed
straight for the forest. The boy fol
lowed, and after a long walk came
to hollow tree all surrounded by
bees, and inside it was great quakl-
tity of honey. He was overjoyed at
the sight, and carefully marking the
place, hurried home again and got
his father to help him, and between
them they secured the whole mass
OF honey and carried home great
buckets full of it, so that he invited
all the children for miles around tc
come to a feast of honey.
But the other humble bees were SC
angry with the one who had be
trayed the hiding place Of their stores
that they attacked him and stung
him to death.

who had a beautiful time all
day long and buzzed about at
his own sweet will, wholly without
regard to the feelings OF others. He
went from flower to flower and coaNed
them to let him have their honey, and
as soon as he had filled his bag with
it he flew away and left the flower
all bare of sweetness. Some OF the
flowers even tried to close up when
he came near, to save their honey,
for we'll they knew his ways. but
they could not prevent his entering,
and soon he had their whole store.
Where he kept his honey no cue
knew. He lived in the forest some
where, for it was towards the forest
he always flew when he had filled
his bags in the garden. But of course,
none of the flowers had followed him,
for they were stay-at-home people.
Besides the flowers there We're
three children in the garden, a boy
and his two sisters. They also
learned to dislike the visits of the
humble bee. One day he stung the
boy, merely for mischief, and ever
after that, when he brushed their
faces, the children would all jump
and scream and run away. He quite
enjoyed teasing them by flying close
to their faces on purpose, until his
wings would actually brush their
noses, and then how they would
jump, and the mischievous bee
would be buzzing off on his way
laughing at them in his own quiet
fashion.
One day when little Eleanor had
taken her bread and milk out under
the trees to eat it in the garden,
along came the humble bee and
buzzed right into her ear, SO that she
jumped and spilled her milk all over
her clean dress. How the mischief
laughed! He could hardly contain
himself for merriment, and when her
sister came running out to help re-
pair the damage, the naughty fellow
flew straight into her face, so that in
her confusion she stumbled and fell
screaming in the grass.
Nor was this all When the chill

In vain she tried driving the bum
BILE bee away with her fan. The
troublesome fellow was determined
not to go, and returned again and
again to the charge. He loved to
tease people, and the more annoyed
they appeared to be by his rpesence
the more determined he was to stay
there and annoy them.
One day, however, the time came
when he would gladly have gone
away had he been able to do so, fol-
in his flights about the yard he ran
up against something soft that
seemed to close about him so that he
could not use his wings. For a few
minutes this did not alarm him much
He thought that by putting forth a
little more effort, of course, he could
break through the himsy thing, so he

Nevertheless, it was his express

A petition for a new depot was
circulated around among the
business men of the city this
week and at the last report
about three hudred had signed.
Canyon City is dreadfully in need
of new depot because the pres
ent one is so small that it does
not accommodate the traffic that
comes here. The first impression
ola stranger to a city is the
depot but fortunately Canyon
City has enough good qualities to
Offset this impression but the
town is growing so rapidly that,
if we do not get a new depot, a
shed or a tent will have to be
stretched in order to keep travel

Cobb-Bynum.

In the presence of a few friends
in Amarillo last Tuesday night a
former Canyon City man, Earl
Cobb, was married to Miss Sarah
Bynum, a sister of B. C. D. By
mum, prominent banker of that
city. Miss Bynum was one of
Amarillo's most favored young
ladies and Mr.. Cobb is prominent
in business circles there and num-
bers his friends in this city by
the hosts. The Amarillo Daily
Panhandle makes the following
report of the event:
Truly a home wedding was
the pretty ceremony last night
at $50 at the residence of the
brides sister, Mrs. J. l.. Smith,
by which Miss Sarah L. Bynum
became the wife of Earl Cobb.
No invitations had been given out
and only a few neighbors besides
members of the families were
present at the wedding and re-
ception.
Cut flowers and sprays and
banks of green had been used eff
fectively throughout the rooms.
Rev. R. F. Jenkins of the First
Baptist church, under a canopy
of green and blooms spoke the
obligation and heard the respon-
ses of the ceremony. Claude
Mobiles played the Mendelssohn
march as a violin solo during the
ceremony.
After the round of congratula-
tons the bride started the cut
ting of the cake. To Miss Tollee
fell the needle, ominous of spin
ster-hood." B. C. D. Bynum
drew the lucky maid when the
bride, in dering. Miss Mayme
Trigg was the parting, threw her
boquet.
Refreshments of Neapolitan
cream and cake We're served. An
orchestra played through the
evening.
The bride wore white satin en-
traine. Her veil of white incline
was caught with a coronet of
orange blossoms. For the going
away she wore a dark green
tailored suit with hat and gloves
to match.
Most unique and most certainly
useful among the presents was a
thick volume, handsomely bound |
in red morocco, with hand-tool- |
ed design and gold head-stamp-
ing, entitled Little Helps for
Newlyweds, by J. L. Smith"
Every page of this remarkable
book bore a cleancut, fresh five
dollar bill, two hundred of them
in all. A number of articles in
the rich array of gifts were from
relatives in Horn Lake, Miss. |
and Memphis, Tenn, where the |
bride formerly lived.
The only out of town guests |
were Mrs. Cobb and Miss Cobb |
of Canyon, mother and sister Of /.
the bridegroom.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb left last
night for Denver. After a trip |
of about two weeks to various
Colorado points they will be at
home in Amarillo.
The bride is the daughter Of
Mrs. Katherine A. Bynum and
has lived in Amarillo for several
years. Her wit and charming
personality have made her favor
ite and hosts Of friends are de-
lighted to know that her marriage
has not removed her from Amar-
lilo. She is member of the
Pierian club and is prominent in
club and social circles.
Earl Cobb is one of the most
successful and subtantial young
Amarillo business men. He is
secretary and manager Of the

CONVENTION MEETS TODAY.
Three Days Session for the Sunday School
Workers to be Held Here.

The Sunday School Convention
for the Panhandle district, which
includes all the churches and
Sunday Schools from Childress
to the West line of Texas and
from the north line to the foot Of
the Plains, meets here today. Ar
engagements have been made for
the entertainment of two hun
dred delegates by the committee
selected for that purpose at a
meeting of all the pastors and
superintendent of the various
churches in the city. Lodging
and breakfast will be provided
by many of the Sunday School
people of this city while dinner
and supper will be served by the
ladies of the Baptist church on
the grounds of the Methodist
church at a very small cost.
General Secretary w. N. Wig
gins, Rev. Harvey Beauchamp,
Field Secretary of the Southern
Baptist Convention, Rev. A. E.
Rector, State Vice-President and
pastor of the First German Meth
odist churchof Houston and many
other prominent speakers who
are interested in Sabbath School
work in the state have been as
signed to this convention by the
State Board. However only a
few of the speakers and delegates
have arrived, but the majority
will be here on today's trains.
w. J. Flesher, general chair
man for the meeting, was in re-
ceipt of a letter last Wednesday
from Superintendent A. E. Myer
of the Baptist Sunday School at
Amarillo, stating that forty or
fifty delegates will be present
from their city while from Tulia
comes a notice saying about thir-
ty-tive will come on today's trains.
Several more superintendent
from smaller cities have written
saying that a gOOdly number will
be sent by them.
The meeting will be held in the
Methodist Church on the corner
of West Evelyn and Sixth streets
since that is the largest and most
commodious as well as convenient
church building in the city.
This is the first Sunday School
Convention ever assigned to this |
city and efforts have been made .
to make it so pleasant as well as
instructive that the delegates
will look upon their visit here
with little regret.
AS each delegate enters into
the church, he or she will be re-
quired to register after which |
they will be given a badge which |
will show that he is a visitor to
our city. The program is given
below and will begin this after
noon at three O'Clock.
