Chief of Police Sinclair is in receipt
of valuable gold band ring from City
Marshal George b. Day of Berlin, y. r.
the latter having recoveled the piece oi
jewelry from vaudeville performer who
appeared in the New Hampshire city last
week. The ring belongs to Barre won-
an, who lost it while attending show
at the Pavilion theatre one night in the
early part of last week, The following
morning one of the actor men was seen
TO pick up the gold band from the floor
and when questioned by one of the the
atre attaches he claimed the find as his
own property. The performer left on
the early morning train for Berlin and
half hour later one Of the theatre
patrons of the previous night called at
the show house and started search fo-
her ring.
Manager Roach at once notified the
local police that the departed performer
had probably left with the ring in his
possession. Chief Sinclair communicated
with authorities in Berlin, where the
vaudeville man had booked for the latter
part OF the week. and the ring forthcon.-
ing Saturday night was the result. No
details of the recovery were given N
the letter accompanying the ring. but il
is likely that the actor was glad enough
to return the property and avoid the
charge which the local officers promised
would follow.

BEES AND MONEY.

This Is turning out to be the
best honey season in Colorado for
several years. There has been an un-
usual amount of bloom aside from
the alfalfa fields and these are the
things that make honey In favorable
years. There are counties on the
Western Slope thai will ship from
this year and the marketing has
already begun in a small way. A
good deal of the second growth OF
alfalfa has been left standing for
seed and this has afforded a very
good flow of late honey which Is
still coming in.
The honey bee and the humble bee
are the only insects that will po-
lenate alfalfa. Experiments covering
a long time have been made with
other insects to see II these could
or did do any OF the work. Alfalfa
has a peculiar flower in many rer
spects. 1t is legume, but different
from the other flowers usually
found in this country in that the
pollen from the male flower must be
carried to the females and deposit
ed in the flower or there will be no
seed In that head. The humble and
honey bees carry this pollen and
as they are so active they visit
practically every flower in a field
in search of honey and everyone they
visit Us made fertile.

Concerning a recently published
newspaper item announcing a special
examination OF mining camp in n
Western state. which promises to
be a second Cripple Creek" the
director of the geological survey
made the following statement:
1.-The district which Is mentioned
in this announcement as promising
to be a second Cripple Creek. is
simply one OF 1900 large and
small mining districts of the West.
and 1t is the effort of the federal
survey to study these as rapidly as
possible. The particular district to
which reference has been made is
one OF 25 small districts to the ex-
animation OF which one of the
survey geologists has been assigned.
Doubtless the prospectors and claim
owners in each OF these believe their
district to be a second Cripple Creek
