cent. In spite of it the bee-keepers will
produce more honey than last year.
The resources for honey in this great
alluvial delta are beyond computation,
where one bee-keeper with $50 colonies
last year made $1,000 pounds, which is
equivalent to IL gallons to the hive, and
three other large ones produced from
nine to ten gallons.
Bee-keeping is no light work, and it is
not to be supposed that the bees do most
of it. To have good constitution, plen-
tJ of energy, perseverance and mod.
crate amount of enthusiasm are the re-
quisites.
Two rules must be observed in bee
keeping: Keep your colonies strong by
uniting the weak ones and take the SUR
plus honey as fast as the bees bring it.
All bee-keepers in this country use thA
Langstroth frame 1t is the standard
hive, simply constructed and of easy and
rapid manipulation.
To make honey work for extracted
honey to lose your time and money try
for comb honey.

Mayor Will Give
Holmes the Fire

Pays Political Debt with Office for
Whose Maintenance There
Are No Funds.

Mayor Dahlman says he will appoint Rob
ert Holmes to the newly created position Of
city fire warden for a term Of three years.
The appointment will be sent to the Board
of Fire and Police Commissioners for con-
firmation.
A salary OF s., 800 a year attaches to the
office which was created by an act of the
last legislature, Mr.. Holmes introducing the
bill in the house.
Should he be confirmed, Mr.. Holmes will
take the position and run his chances OF

ment can not stand the drain, and the
general fund IL at present at low tide. The
city attorney, however. believes that the
general fund, out OF which the new Of
ficial's salary would probably come, will
be in q condition later in the year, whereby
the $3.50 necessary to pay the salary for
the balance Of the year can be secured.

Marvin'S Coming
to Omaha Delayed
Alleged Train Robber Will Have II
be Given Separate Trial on
That Account.

The absence OF Judge Dietrich OF the
dah federal district court from Boise,
Idaho, causes a delay in the return OF
q. w. Marvin, alias Bill Mathews. one Of
the alleged Overland Limited train rob-
bers TO the Nebraska jurisdiction.
Marvin was taken from Twin Falls to
Boise on a commitment from the United
states commissioner, where he was TO
await an order Of removal from the fed
eral judge of the Idaho district TO Omaha.
But Judge Dietrich was holding court At
Portland, Ore, and this will delay the re-
turn of Marvin to Nebraska and may
necessitate a separate trial for him.
The trial of the other four bandits is
set for July I, and 1t is hardly probable
that Marvin will be hurried to trial until
he has had the opportunity OF consulting
with his attorney as to his line OF de-
Tense.
Whether the delay in Marvln's return
will cause a delay OF the trial Of the other
bandits remains to be determined.
