A fond mother of young miss
who graduated this year from high
school tells of conversation be
tween the daughter and chum a
few days ago.
Dress and other beloved topics of
the sex had been discussed. The
daughter is an imretuous child of
less years and experience than her
school associates. The chum is of
the stately, dignified order, who
chooses her words and phrases as
carefully as the most fastidious Bos-
tonian.
Graduation was being talked of
when the chum suddenly broke from
the talk of dresses some of their
companions were to wear and asked ::
BY the way, Marie, are you going
to have very long graduation the
sis?"
Plenty long enough, came the
answer. Il have to get used to it.

BEES BLOCK RAILROAD.

It happened on the Hartman sys-

Tin dish pans, tom-toms, whistles
and other recognized lures failed to

The driver and cOal-heayer did eX

the pipe, but the bees gave them
short shift and the men refused to
make the second attempt
II. A. SWab, a local expert in bee
matters, bore down upon the scene
t. capture the swarm. He was arm
ed with a nail keg and two long
sticks. He sent his helper to coax
the bees into the keg, but in less
than six seconds the assistant had
score of active bees up his sleeves,
and he made a dash toward the rail-
way station. Swab also remembered
he had an important business en-
gagement elsewhere.
The foreman and members OF the
section crew were next routed, and
when the engineer appealed to
Agent Sullivan that worthy declared
it was a matter for the maintenance

of the stalled train suggested send

insisted upon calling out the fire

Finally, a by-stander prescribed
the water cure. adding: IF that

a garden hose seemed to have a
quieting effect. and the pipe was
lowered to the intake on the tender
and the tank filled with bees and
water.
While replacing the pipe the fire
man was attacked by few strag-
glers and to protect himself from
further onslaught he tied red
bandanna handkerchief round his
head After raising the spout he
tucked the handkerchief into his
pocket and accepted the congratula

vagrant bee winged its way out OF
the folds of the bandanna and
stung him on the lip.
After the excitement with the
bees, two small boys climbed to the
roof of the water tank and with bare
hands captured the queen, placing
it in the bottom of the key, into
which the bees quickly swarmed
Swab bought the swarm, presenting
the boys $125 to swell the candy
