BEEHUNTER'S PERILOUS PLIGHT
Bees Swarmcd All Ctcr His Anat-

Mlt and Abe Robb Of Coleville.
| Pa. determined to capture and bring
home to their hives a big swarm of
bees which they had been told were
hanging around the mountains in the
vicinity waiting to be taken into
captivity. The brothers soon found
the homeless swarm Armed with a
saw, Milt climbed the tree on which
they had collected, leaving Abe on
the ground below with a tub and
blanket to take charge Of the insects
when the limb was sawed off and
they should fall to the ground.
Everything went nicely at first
From his perch thirty five feet above
the ground Milt sawed merrily away
at the limb while the bees remained
TRANQUILITY punched on it. evidently
unconscious of his presence I'm
fortunately however, Milt miscalcu-
lated the weight of the swarm, for
when the limb was nearly severed
II slipped from his grasp and swished
downward against his body before
breaking off and falling to the
ground He called to Abe to look
out" The warning was unnecessary.

already started for safer quarters
and was smashing through the brush
toward home.
When the limb fell against him
the queen bee was knocked off and
at once took up a new position under
the arm with which Mitt was cling
ing desperately TO the tree. Imme-
diately afterward. in accordance with
their nature. the other bees followed
the queen, svarming thickly over
Milt's body and partly encircling the
tree Some crawled up the legs Of
his trousers. some went up his shirt

THEY HAVEN'T HEARD OF WAR.
News of Conflict Hasn't Reached
Nquitos of Tristan da Cunha.

Incredible though it may sound,
there are still places which have not
yet heard a syllable about the war.
Tristan da Cunha, the lonely South
Atlantic island. has not received a
mail since the outbreak Of war iris
tan da Cunha is entirely dependent on
chance communications from the Cape,
/ 500 miles away. Sometimes II is a
year or more without its people hear
ing from the outside world.
Ii is a British possession, and It's
people. Wandering ABOUT eighty, are
mainly descendants OF shpwrecked
sailors. They are of mixed origin~
English Scotch. Irish, American,
Dutch, Italian, Asiatic and negro.
There is not one enemy alien
Another place that has probably not
vet heard OF the war is Iquitos, in
eastern Peru. Yquitos has perhaps
the most romantic mail service in the
world
Its letters are taken up the Am
azon to Manaos. and thence right
across South America up the mighty
river in river steamer. 1t is only
few hundred miles from Lima, the
Pacific capital Of Peru. but the wall
OF the Andes is an almost impossible
barrier.
The quick" route. therefore. from
Yduitos to Lima Is all the thousands
Of miles down the Amazon, and
across the Atlantic and then via
Liverpool"

LONDON, Aug. 20.-Despite the
efforts of King Constantine and the
crown prince to keep Greece out Of
the great war, it now appears that the
resignation of the pro-German Greek
cabinet, headed by Gounaris, and the
recall Of Nenizelos to the premiership
will swing Greece into the conflict on
the side Of the allies.
King Constantine and the crown
prince have tried TO maintain n strict
neutrality through the diplomatic
proceedings of the last few months,
but If anything their leanings were
toward the Teutonic allies. Now with
the pro- German cabinet out. and
Nenizelos about to return to power
nearly two million seasoned Greek
veterans may soon be helping the
allies TO force the pardanelles.

MYSTERY Dls.1''''';.>o IS.

"J. c. r." the man of mys-
terry, and who it was believed
by a great many to be Jay Al
len Caldwell, has again disap-
peared and no one knows the
least of his whereabouts. He
came here about three months
ago and has been staying with
his sister, Mrs. Moran, who
lives on the south side. A
short time ago a benefit dance
was given which netted him
$11. Suddenly he disappear
ed, and has not been seen or
heard of. He bought a ticket
to Glendive, but further than
that no trace has been found,
and his whereabouts are as
much of a mystery as his real
identity and history.-Dickin-
