Treasured Secret Of the War Depart

the use OF bees as messengers.
No longer will the aid-de-camp spur
his staggering horse through shot and

The bee, like the homing pigeon,

Drowning the Bells.

The strangest thing that the once
window man saw during the New

this great city decreeing that glad
chimes should be rung at Trinity as
the year came in, and then drowning
the sound of the BELLS, when they were
rung, by the blowing of horns and
the ringing OF cowbells, remarks the
New York Mail. The visitor from
Mars must have wondered greatly at
this. 1t was like asking Melba to
sing for you, and then, when she
