Bill for Relief Of Holders Of COuhU
Claims Seems to Have Failed.
Acting on the belief that pro-
vision had been made at the re-
cent session OF the Legislature
to pay the outstanding road
claims left over from the year
1908, Treasurer J " Cook went
to Columbia Thursday of last
week to bring back the money.
The holders of these claims
through hope long deferred have
had the keen edge of their anxi'
ETY. dulled, only to be whetted
again recently by the report
that the money for the long
overdue accounts was available
and would soon be forthcoming.
But it seems that such IS not
the case. Along with the clerk
of the comptroller generals of
fee Mr. Cook looked carefully
through the advance sheets OF
the acts (which have not yet
been published) but nowhere
could be found any reference to
these unpaid road claims.
That the delegation from this
county meant to make provision
to meet this Indebtedness is un
doubtedly correct, for we have
Mr. Bryan's word to that effect
and Representative Graham,
who was in town Monday IS
under the impression that II
latlon was effected to the
that the claims be paid. More
over, if we mistake not, Senator
Bass in his correspondence to
this newspaper during the legis-
lative session, stated that the
delegation had arranged to pay
this Indebtedness without an
additional tax levy. AS explain
ed to US the plan was as follows:
Under an act passed in 1907
Williamsburg county was author
lied to borrow $4,000 from the
sinking fund to pay the then
outstanding road claims and to
levy tax of one mill to repay
this loan at the rate of 1000 a
year with interest at 5 per cent.
But the said act also provided
that all moneys derived from
this one.mill levy should be ap-
piled to refunding the debt to
the sinking fund. Now, the
taxes derived from a levy of one
mill amount to something over
900 on the basis OF present
valuation, and the plan was to
amend the act so as to pay the
sinking fund only $4,000 and in.
terest for one year and to apply
the balance of the one-mill levy
to the outstanding Indebtedness
for road claims.
Whether the proposed legis.
llation miscarried or became
side.tracked in some way, we
are unable to say, but if the
information obtained by Mr.
Cook from the State house
clerks be correct, the holders OF
road claims prior to 1909 will
have another weary year to
wait before they get the money

SunflOwer Philosophy.

The great difference between a wild
over and a married is that the mar
ried man rs watched by,only one, and
that one has right.
No woman who has house that is
clean need ever be ashamed of her
furniture.
The man who begs your pardon
means about as much as you do when
you grant it.
Telling one lie to escape the conse-
uuences of another is about as effect
i've as committing suicide to escape
execution. ...
After woman has been married a
few months she goes around with a
look on her face indicating that she
smells dead rat.
Nearly every man whistles for the
same reason that he swears and chews
tobacco-learned it when boy and
can't quit.
You will not learn anything if you
are not curious, and people will not
like you if you are.
We would like to be popular but
not SO popular We would never have a
chance to eat onions.
This is not a free country for peo-
pie who run newspapers, boarding
houses and telephone exchanges.
One difference between a good
woman and a bad one is that bad
woman raises hell with good many
men, while good woman only raises
hell with one.
Every man seemsI ito make a differ
ent noise when he sneezes.
A man always has money enough
to buy things not good for him. BE-
Any boy can fool'his mother, but
every man cannot fool his wife.
So many men carry large life insur-
ance these days that getting rich by
marrying widows j, becoming quite
an industry.
II is all right in books for girl to
have lover who worships her from
afar, but outside of books she wants
him to come q little nearer. "a.
Another thing to be called in is the
sentiment about sleeping in val
ley sosweet." Every cemetery We ever
saw was perched on top of high
.hill.--lAtchison { Kan Globe.

The Biggest Honey Bee.

Apis zonata, or the large Philip
pine bee, builds on the outside of q
tree instead of the inside, as other
bees do, usually on the under side of
a slanting tree or branch. They are
not migratory as the Borneo and
Indian bees are, nor do they always
select high trees to avoid honey bears,
as their Borneo cousins have to do.
They frequently store several pounds
OF good honey, yet they are great wax
producers. They are exceedingly
vicious when disturbed, often follow
ing their disturbers for several
minutes.
This bee is probably the largest
and also the strongest of the en-
tire honey bee family. Its wing pow
er is about double that of the Italian
bee, while it lives several times as
long, and a sting or two from it will
cause persons to see stars in broad
daylight. Their combs sometimes at
tain four or five feet in diameter and
are entirely covered with thick mass
of bees, arranged as shingles are on
the roof of a house, their wings point
ing downward.
This bee is q true Filipino-tbat is,
it sleeps during the hottest part of
the day and also on dark nights, al
though it works very diligently dur
ing the early morning and evening
hours, while on moonlight nights it
frequently works all night. 1t is UNI
doubleday the only honey bee that is
partially nocturnal.-[M indanao Her
