Work Of Bees.

Work Of Bees.
Three hundred billion bees made
enough honey during last year to fill
3 train OF cars long enough to reach
from New York to Buffalo. At the
low wholesale rate Of ten cents q
pound it was worth $25, 0O0. 900, and If
the 700. 900 bee-keepers Of the country
had worked as industriously and skill
fully as did the bees, the weight of the
output would have been three times
a. great and the value 5000, 600.
In one year the beehives sent to
market a product worth nearly as
much as the barley crop. three times
as much as the buckwheat crop, &C.
600, 900 greater than the rye crop, and
nearly 50, 600, 900 greater than the rice
crop. All the the rice and buckvheat
grown on an aggregated area OF
2,126 1-3 square miles did not reach to
the value Of the honey by $151,259.
To appreciate these results, one
must necessarily strive also to appre.
ciate the number Of insects at work.
That is rather difficult, for 800, 900. 000.-
900 stretches a long way beyond intel
ligent human comprehension. The
human mind doesn't work well in any.

thousands.

Il solid crack or Two on the head from
some rea! eypSieS, who have been in
terrupted in their work Of lootin9 the
van in which the wealthy Young Wo-
man IS temporarily maSquerading as
a RomanN chal. But he is still Of the
same mind as to the girl when he
wakes up, and so she confeSses to him
that she is not a thief, and that what
she told him first was only half the
truth. and in the dawnine of beauti-
ful morning, under the trees they
pledge anew thci: faith. and SET about
to travel in that cold world which Is
the new.
In addition to this main episode.
the comedy has also the affair Of the
handsome young lady secretary of the
wealthy girl, who shows her practical
sense by taking on for marriage sap
py lordin@ who has been declined with
thanks by her employer. Some thiev-
ing gypsies and the essentials, SER
wants and gamekeepecs complete the
picture.
Miss Davis works unremittinely to
invest her role with the touch of real
interest needed for success, and that
she succeeds at all is the highest pos
sible tribute to her ability as come
dienne. She is pretty, has a pleasant
voice, and some quaint little ways that
serve her we'll. She shows touches Of
the eternal feminine in her love
scenes and at these times fairly war-
rants the enthusiastic expressions of
the young squire, who pours out his
passion in jerky sentences, but with a
true lovers fervor.
Mr.. Dexter is a most capable actor,
and is thoroughly natural and con-
vincing as the young squire who falls
in love with what he deems to be a
thieving gypsy girl and finally learns
he has won the heart Of wealthy So
ciety favorite. Miss Dudley is very
good as the secretary and Mr.. Van
Sloan shows we'll as the vouEg lord.
The others in the cast do what is re-
quired of them very well. The play
is prettily mounted, and was we'll re-
ceived by the Sunday evening aud
ience at the Boyd. It will be offered
again this evening and on Tuesday
evening, and at a special matinee on

DIVIDING LEXINGTON.

The people in the Fork Of Lexlng-
ton on the Richland side are making
efforts to take a part of Lexington in
to Richland county, and the informa-
ton we have is that it will be practi-
cally unanimous with the portion
that it is proposed to annex.
There is section Of Lexington
county beyond Little Mountain that
ought to come into Newberry county
if the lower section is to be part Of
Richland county.
We understand that the Richland
annexationists have decided upon a
line about Wateree creek below Chap
in and as near Saluda river as it is
permitted to come under the constl-
tuition. This line does not include
Peaks nor that section of Lexington
around Hope station. We have been
told that the people at Peaks up as
far as Hopes prefer to 60 into Rich
land county.
If they so prefer and it is practical
ly unanimous we presume they will be
permitted to 60 in along with those
who ara lower down in the Fork.
We would be glad to see the section
of the county from Wateree creek
around Piny Woods church, and as
near the river as the constitutional
limitation Will permit come into New
berry county. Most of these have
their business connections in Newber-
ry county, and Little Mountain, Pros
perity, and Newberry are their mark
ct places and naturally, we think,
they should prefer coming to New
berry. We hope if they so desire
that some movement will be inaugu-
rated which will permit this section
to annex with Newberry.

The Civic association ought to get a
definite understanding wiz. the citlz-
ems, the garbage cart and the law as
to when it is lawful to put trash on
the streets and how often and what
day it is to be gathered up and carted
away. Or whether this is to be done
at all. And if it is not to be carted
away then it ought not to be put on
the streets. We have seen garbage
put on the street and remain there
until it was scattered to the winds.
If every one would take an inter-
est in keeping the town clean it would
be an easy matter.
It is a matter of education and
training and maybe by keeping ever
lastingly at it in the right way we
may accomplish results. Certainly no
one should be discouraged.

Copper will reach is cents by March.

that time he had considerable oppor-
tunIty to get acquainted with market
conditions. He declares that he feels

are now developing in the east. that
the red metal Will shortly be back in a
position that will be more gratifying to
the mining fraternity.
Mining Is again coming to the front,
and the coppers are the most talked of
stocks in the east he declared "The
big interests in the east are not load
ing up on copper stocks for nothing.
There arc certainly some big things
ahead In mining. and the copper camps
are the first to feel the rise in the mar

From what I have seen in the east,
l am firmly convinced that copper will

are a number OF things that I do not
wish to mention. that make me believe
that such n change Is coming.
Everything is moving along in spIen-
did shape at Ely. At the Ely Calumet
the shaft is being Strengthened out and
a crosscut is also being run to catch
the vein which was cut on the tunnel
above. Tho shaft is down past the 90
foot level and work there will shortly
be pushed with more energy than In
tho past. Shortly after the first OF
the year there will be more activity at
the Ely Calumet than ever before.
Ely is one OF the most talked of
camps In the east and there are some
big plans now being made for the fu-
ture of the camp. 1t is too far in ad-
vance to speak OF them now, but what
Will be done there during the COM
Ing year will match up we'll with what
has been done In the past"
