out for the tree, which Mr.. Woods had
discovered about two years ago but we
have been too busy to tackle it before,
and arrived on the scene of action
about eight o'clock The first thing
we did was to take shower bath but
soon got to work. eve" cut the tree
and it came down with crash, the
bees came out like fury, while some
of the brave ones were hitting only the
high places getting away. Messrs.
Woods and Holt screened themselves
and walked up to the tree end went to
work getting the honey, but the others
advanced more slowly with smudges.
One would occasionally make rapid
retreat still all finally reached the goal
We found the tree full of honey and all
appeared delighted even if some were
siuNg. We returned about noon a
little the worse off for wear but not
afraid to tackle another bee tree.

The old graveyard on the banks OF the
Anacostia is IN the parish of Christ

For years before the enactment by
which the government hOnOred the mem

their State IN Congress. the stormy. buI
useful life Of the Southern warrior and
statesman, Gov. James Jackson, Of GeOr-
gia. had ended. He served through the
Revolutionary war with honor. rising 20
the rank Of major general. then in the
field Of politics played an active part
in winning successively every Office OF

the successful hero IN a battle with land
grabbers. and the inscription on the tomb
erected to his memory says: He de-
served and enjoyed the confidence OF a
grateful country as a soldier and states
man, who was the determined Zoe Of for
eign tyranny and the sc0urage and terror
OF corruption at home"
The body was buried about three miles
outside Of the city, and not removed until
the stone barring Gen. JaCksOn's name
had been some time in place. And though
the country may be as grateful for his

Answer: In the third person.

taking Of the aierette from the heron the bird is
killed. Personally do not believe this. ard. as /
am milliner, DO not want 20 believe t. but
would Like to know the truth. MISS LUCE
Answer: Yes; the heron is killed when
the aigrette is taken, These lovely plumes
appear on the herons only at the breeding
season, and not only are the old birds
killed when they are captured and the
aigrette removed. but the hedgllngs that

Answer: You have only 70 look over

for assuring foreign visitors that travel

Richmond. Ind. July 2-The police de-

the most peculiar type OF burglar that
has worked IN Richmond in many years.
He gained entrance 10 a Main street
confectionery store by cutting his way
through a rear door. an operation that
must have taken hours. The burglar
passed up money left in a cash regis
ter drawer. silver forks and knives and
showed his preference for eggs, taking
fve dozen.
A colthing store near by was entered
by the same strange burglar, who again
showed his contempt for money by not
molesting the cash drawer or safe, and
got away with a suit OF clothes and a
shirt.

small inn. whose name and situation
promised to furnish delightful expert

mensurate with our anticipations. In

IT'S center. the table was decorated with
catsup and pickle bottles, the china was
heavy and white. suoh as is CONNER

plated silver knives. I never take up
one OF these blunt instruments, which in
