At a meeting of the Acme Packet

it was decided to Immediately pro-
coed with the building of a new ex-
cursion steamer to replace the j. s.,
destroyed in the fire of last Saturday
night. The new boat will be dellV-
cred next spring" Captain John
Streckfus said. 1T will be in every
respect the equal if not the superior
of the burned steamer. While we
feel our loss of the handsome J. S.
keenly, personally l have been more
than compensated by the thought
that | was aide, with one or two ex-
ceptions, to land in safety all the
souls entrusted to my keeping dur
ing the time they were on the steam
er. There have been various stories
as TO the starting of the fire, but the
best we can do is theOriZe. What l
positively do know is that all COM
bustibles, such as oils, etc, were
stored in iron receptacles, and there
fore the flames could not have orig
mated from that source. All electric
wires were insulated also, and there
was a regular inspection of the wiz
ing throughout the boat in order to
discover any breakage that might be
responsible for a fire. 1t is more
than probable that flames originated
in the ships prison, where two IN
ruly men had been locked up cary

here in order that the two companies
may have six days training under the
officer instead of three each. The COM

WANDERLUST.

WANDERGUST.
Have you ever felt the wanderlust, the
call of open places?
For the grim and ice-packed coast
lines topped by everlasting snow,
When the rushing of the north wind,
where the white-capped comber
races,
Drives the heaving, groaning timbers
DER the racing seas below?
Have you ever felt the tropics calling,
calling meath the moonlight?
When nectar scented, drowsy sweet,
the vagrant land breeze blows,
And the stars seem flashing jewels in
the sable dome above you
As the rising sun at dawning tints
the eastern sky with rose?
From the northland, where the were wolf
bowls across the frozen silence,
From the southland where the jungle
breathes beneath a molten sky,
Comes the call of open places on the
four strong winds of heaven,
Comes the song of the free rovers as
the Keeling ships go by.

Magazine.

BEES HAD TIP TO MOVE AWAY
Ten-Ton Boulder Fells Tree They
Used on Hog Mountain for
Ten Years

Pine Brook, N. J.-Some one tipped
off big hive of bees in a hollow tree
at the foot of Hog Mountain that
ten.ton boulder was going to roll down
from the top of the mountain and
smash everything in its path, includ-
ing the tree in which they had stored
700 pounds of honey In what way
they got the tip is not known. The
best evidence the bees had 1t is they
moved to another tree out of the dan
ger line a few hours before the big
boulder made its sensational down
ward rush, and that Reuben Van Win
kle, who owns the farm on which the
bee trees are, returned from Montciair
loaded down with supplies he bought
after he had sold the 700 pounds o.
honey for fancy prices. incidentally,
when in Montclair. he felt so rich as
a result of the bee tip and the boulder
he went to the Central Hotel and had
a full course dinner.
1T was the first time | had eaten
dinner with side dishes since my
wedding day, thirty-seven years ago"
Van Wrinkle said When I think OF
that dinner and look at all these pret-
ty things | have bought, and hear this
money jingling in my pockets, | GER
tainly feel favorably disposed toward
bees and boulders."
The bees occupied the hollow tree
ten years. Van Wrinkle never disturb
ed them, because he knew the only
way to get the honey was to cut the
tree down. He was averse to doing
that So the insects worked away un.
til the tree literally was saturated
with honey. Two weeks ago he no.
ticed the bees were moving to another
hollow tree. He thought it was be-
cause a new swarm was being driven
out of the old quarters to find new
home. AS he sized it up. nothing
short of a big fight in the hive could
force bees to go out
On Sunday night the Van Wrinkles
were aroused by terrific crashing on
the mountainside. Van Wrinkle got
out of bed and went to investigate. By
that time the noise had ceased and
he could not discover it's cause. In
the morning, however, he saw the big
boulder in his meadow and up the
mountainside trees which had been
felled by it's rush. At the end of the
line lay the old bee tree.
Then it dawned upon Van Wrinkle
why the bees had moved.

INFANT WITH a RECORD.
Represents Fifth Generation and Has
Eleven Grandparents.


Danville, Ind.-The infant daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Rollo Parker Of
Hendricks County, Mary Margaret,
has record of relatives unequalled in
Indiana. She represents the fifth gen
Grafton of her family that is yet liv-
ing, and she has eleven grandparents
living. Her great-great-grandpa
on her mothers side are Mr. and Mrs.
James Kibby of Advance, while DR..
and Mrs. Burke of the same place
have the honor of being her grandpar-
ents. Mrs. Jacob Kendall of LiZton
is also her great-grandmother.
1t is difficult to trace all the eleven
branches of the family tree. The com
bined ages of the five generations in a
direct line total something over two
hundred years. The new arrival, who
is now but ten days old, has already
received messages from her many
relatives, and it is probable that
within a short time a family reunion
will be arranged, when, If possible,
all the fond Observation-Disclosures,
together with the grandparents, par.
ents and other near kinfolk, will gath
er for a general mutual admiration
meeting.
