Seamen's Troubles.
ON the Fleet Review.

run tue TieSt htsteW-
The external reasons which might cause
men to desert are few and easily enumer-
ated. The two prime reasons are that
wherever the seaman goes in uniform he
finds he is welcome in but a few places:
The saloon, the brothel and the Seamens
Rests. He feels that he is looked upon as
lower than the meanest man in civilian
clothes, whereas he should feel that any
crook can wear civilian clothes, but only
an honorable man can wear the uniform,
he feels that because of discrimination he
has sacrificed some Of the rights Of Amer
lean citizenship. Because of these things
an increasing number of men are now
wearing civilian clothes when on shore.
and the aforementioned condition and the
having of these clothes lend temptation to
desert hand when a good job offers.
The bluejacket soon does find that he
has signed away few rights OF citizen
ship. he no longer has vote on presi-
Dental elections nor representation IN
Washington. As stated In another arti-
Gle, the Secretary of the Navy is occupied
with too many other things, and il is not
always possible to get, or desirable TO
put, things through official channels.
When a man enllsts he signs blindly to
obey about 1880 regulations which he
never or seldom sees, and for this reason
a copy of the blue book should be avail
able for reference in the ships library or
some other suitable place.
About 80 per cent of the deserters were
undesirable before their desertion: at
least, this percentage of them were in
trouble just previous to their desertou.
The other 10 per cent are usually those
who desert for external reasons. The
good men who desert-if they can be
called good. but by this | mean desira bic
to the service-are generally those who
have learned trades In the service. and
being unable To tolerate the discrimina-
ton ashore or some petty injustice aboard
ship have accepted some opportunity out
side. Desertions Will diminish as condi-
tions better and the standard of admis-
sion rises.

Busiest of Busy Bees.


Although bees are apt to turn out on
any sunshiny days, the bulk of their work
is done by the first OF November and
they have retired for their winters sleep.
The beekeeper must now put cushions
into the tops of the hives, taking only
what honey he Is sure can be spared by
the bees, and leave them for their hiber-
nation.
In Florida there is no such work to do.
says q writer in Outing. The bees work
all winter, and they have good feed in
February and March as they do in July.
The orange orchards are alive with the
honey gatherers. and their buzZings
blend into almost roar In March. for
that is when the orange flowers are open;
but 1t must be confessed that the honey
has twang. something like the acidity OF
an orange, and II does not compare al all
with that made from the Eastwood.
Besides the orange there are successive
Towering of legumes of all sorts all the
year, every one having a positive flavor
and very few of them giving to honey
home of the bee, and honey in the south
ern states will yet become as familiar
product as cane sugar.
In the Mississippi valley and elsewhere
professional beekeepers carry their hives
to the south to meet the coming Of the
flowers early in the season, turning
around toward the north and carrying
them to gather the later sweets from
later Towering apples and berries. In
this way. or by carrying them up and
down mountain sides, the feeding spells
on clover or Eastwood and other trees
can be greatly heightened.

Did you ever stop to think of the
important figure cut by railroads in

of our city? A conservative estimate
right now shows that the three lines
operating into and through Ardmore
turn loose of an annual pay roll of

money spent for improvement, main
tenance and incidentals amounting to
approximately s6O,OOO-this swelling
the grand total to $4,000 in round

Almost one-third of million
dollars spent by one industry right
here. OF this amount at least $4,000
is paid out over the counters to our

The newspapers published 1T Ard
more, Cornish and Wauriha have
built on paper the extension OF the
Rock Island from ArdmOre TO Wau-
rika by way OF Cornish a score OF
times or more, but the most autheu-
tic report ever brought here came
today, and the report Says that work
on the extension will begin on the
first day OF June, 1871 This report
was given by President Nudge of
the Rock Island and reaches the
Ardmoreite direct from the person
to whom the president conveyed the
information. The Rock Island. says
the report, has purchased the Frisco
survey from Ardmore 10 Waurika, the
survey is segregated and no right
of way is to be purchased, the Frisco

served the right TO use the tracks of

ter for the reason that road was
chartered and the right OF way seq
regatcd before statehood.
The hitch between the Frisco and
the Rock Island was the matter of
local business. The Rock Island did
not want the Frisco to handle any
local business, but wanted them to
cOnfine their freight to through traf-
fic business from Lawton to Ard
more, but in C+Ae deal as it was fl
nally consummated the report states
that the Frisco won out in its con
tention for local business and will
be allowed to use the tracks between
here and Waurika in the same man
ner that the Rock Island can use
them. II is also stated that the sur
Ney as adopted locates Cornish and
Joiner as two of the towns on the
line and depots will be built there.
The Frisco tracks through the
north part of Ardmore are to be
abandoned and the line will be built
