the yard of William Howard. in
Market Square. they swarmed to the
home of Lewis Maus, in Erie street,
and settled on the fence. But this
was not a good home for the wan
dering tribe, so Tom Kinter at
tempted to move them to a hive
which he had prepared for them.
The bees, however had another view
in mind. Leaving him with few
parting. also painful stings, they
flew away and entered Mr.. Garman's
house by an unknown entrance. Mr..
Garman. who is night watchman of
the Pennsylvania railroad bridge
here, says that though he'd like to
keep the bees, they make sleepin'
