Queens sometimes de during the
winter and early spring. ana since
there Is no brood from which the bees
ca. replace them, the queenless colo-
nica are "hopelessly queenless." Bee
keepers N the North. can frequently
buy Queens from Southern breedefs

is better than leaving the colony with
out queen until the bees can rear
one, as It Is important that there be
no stoppage In brood rearing at this
season.

TO-DAY IN HISTORY.
The Great Chicago Fire-October 5.

On Sunday, October s, lS71. there broke
out a fire in Chicago which ragged for
several days. and is unparalleled in the
history OF the world for a similar con-
Migration. The fire originated in a small
frame structure in the rear of 137 De
Koven street, which was used as a COW
stable. Ii was discovered about $50
o'clock in the evening by a policeman,
when II was very small. and who. hoping
10 eXtinguish il without sounding an
alarm, set himself at work TO do So
a fatal miscalculation. as the result soon
proved a strong southwesterly wind
was blowing at the time; no rain had
fallen for several weeks previous, and
consequently all combustible matter was
prepared for ready ignition.
Chicago was, al that time, a city Of
God. with the exception Of the business
center. The start of the fire is said to
have been caused through the accidental
upsetting Of a kerosene lamp while Mrs
O'Leary was engaged IN milking a COW
This barn stood in a region composed
mostly of shanties, and the fire spread
the South Side. and fastening on that
portion Of the city which contained near
~ all the business houses.
Some buildings were blown up with
gunpowder to prevent its spreading, and
which. in connection with the strong
southwest gale, prevented the extension
OF the flames in the south. The fire
swept on Monday steadily TO the north,
including everything from the lake to the
South Branch. and then crossed to the
North Side. and. taking in everything
from the lake TO the North Branch. il
burned northward for distance OF three
miles. where i died out at the city
limits. when there was nothing more TO
burn.
The total area Of the land burned over
was 200 acres. Nearly $4,000 buildings
were consumed; 101.0oO people were rem
dered homeless: 200 lives were lost and
the grand total OF value DESTROYED is
estimated at S2O0.0O0OO0 OF this vast sum
nearly One-half was covered by insur-
ance, but under the tremendous losses
many of the insurance companies were
forced 10 the wall. and went into uqui-
dalton. and the victims of the confia-
grafton recovered only about one-ffth OF
their aggregate losses.

out parallel in its dimensions and the
magnitude of its dire results. the charity

Jesus states here, that there are

did he mean that?
If a man should keep all the
commandments of God, from his
youth, why would that entitle him
to eternal life?
Why is it possible to keep all the
outward commandments and still
miss eternal life?
This man was evidently sincere in
thinking he had kept all the COM
mandments, mentioned by Jesus, but
what is the proof that he was mis-
taken2
Why cannot a man have eternal
life who puts more value upon his
present property, than he does upon
heavenly richest
This was evidently a very good
doung man, but what serious defect
did he have in his character?
AS a cal self-interested PROPOSE
ton which Is to be preferred, and
why, treasure in heaven, or riches

Is the condition Jesus stated to
this young ruler, to sell all his
earthly possessions, in order to
qualify for salvation, essentially a
condition for everybody, and why?
How much Of influence or time or
money, may a Christian retain for
himself, and remain well pleasing to
God?
Verses 23-26-Why is 1t impossi-
BILE for a rich man to enter into the
