The En1nreSS

The new bill seen at the Empress last night is the best vaudeville sho" Phoenix has had for long time. There are three acts beside the pie tures long show. and all three are top liners. The people are really getting something for nothing this time for the third act just dropped in accidentally. IL is Happy Jack George the black faced comedian and his accOmpice in comedy, who blew in yesterday from down south. She is suffraSctte. and q political speak CT of great renown. on the Naude-
 vile stage Jack does some politi- cal speaking also and both of them tell funny stories and crack jokes. Then there are Burtons dogs and say they are some dogs too About score of them and they like their
 work and do it with d rush that looks like dry goods counter on bargain day. Among other things q black dog and a white hope do a scientific boxing bout. Then there are d couple of hounds that jump over barricade almost as high as the flies and only for the roof on the theatcr would jump over the
 Hotel Adams. Others turned somer- sauits, handsprngs and do all man ner of tricks. The clown of course
 was the comedian Of the troupe and pretends to want to do evrything he s not wanted to. Poole and Poole have a trapeze act that is up to standard and they are exceptionally good in swinging each other by ropes held in the teeth.

ApIary Notes.

There IS no denying the fact that
sttmulat1ve feeding In the spring In
creases the amount of brood reared
and makes the colony rich in bees for
the clover flow that comes later on
In setting the colonies outdoors Jar
them as little as possible. 40 soon as
they are placed upon their summer
stands give them some added protec-
don in the form Of building paper
wrapped about the hives, as this Will
save world Of trouble.
A profitable industry Is being devei-
oped on many Of the government irri-
cation projects In che Introduction Of
honey. The quality OF this honey Is
superior. The flavor Is exceptionally
fine and the color clear and sparkling
Alfalfa Is the chief source from which
the bees secure their supply.
In all your operations with bees you
must use gentleness. All quick, sud
den Jars and motions trritats them
Work slowly and carefully and you
have nothing to fear. II they sting you
and 1t swells your flesh your system
Will become accustomed TO the poison
and soon it win not annoy you any
more than the prick OF pin, and 1t is
an excellent preventive Of rheumatism.
