Very Painful Dentistry.

Dwight Crittenden claims the dis
tinction of being the first white man
to have a tooth drawn by one of the
eolored doctors of the African Trans
vaal. The father of this well-known
actor was mining engineer in Kim
berley. While a boy in South Africa
shooting pains indicated that molar
must be extracted. and as Dwight Crit
tenden's fathers mines were situated
far from medical aid, one OF the med
icine men was summoned. and after
performing fantastic war dance to
the tom-toTl, this gentleman extracted
the offending molar with the aid of a
pair of engineers pincers. An anes-
thetic was administered in the form of
native incense, but Dwight contends
that it only served to intensity the
agony.

To Take Census of Bees.

4 census of the bees in hive has
been made possible by clever de-
vice invented by an employee Of the
bureau of entomology.
The Invention consists Of q gate to
be placed at the entrance to bee
hive with a series Of telephone mes
sage registers attached in such a way
that every time a bee goes through
the gate its passage is recorded. The
device is operated electrically by al
ternating current.
As about 100000 bees go out during
the day, on honeygatherirg expedi-
tions, considerable electrical energy
IS needed to operate the recording
gate, though the amount of energy ez;
pended by the device each time bee
passes is infnitesimal.
