TONS OF HONEY.,
On Elk mountain, near Merrick, there

wild honey. The hive is located in a
rift, which psnetrates the rock probably
to a depth o. 10 feet. The orlllce Is
thirty feet long tiiiu seventeen r.'et wide.
The rift was discovered to be the abid
ing place of a huge swarm of bees,
which tlies in a close column, one foot
in diameter. Many persona have tried
to get to the honey stored by the bees,
but were invariably driven back. One

than fifteen feet of honey to their treas

The First Sessions Held at Washington
Yesterday.
Washington, May 12. The supreme
council of the American Protective As
sociation began Its annual convention
here today. The llrst session was of a
general social and Informal nature In
the absence of a report from the cum
mittee on credentials. Several of the
members made brief speeches In favor
of the restriction of (migration.
The proceedings are behind closed
doors and though great secrecy !s ob
served, officials declare that nothing of
a political nature has yet transpired
and that the. question of disapproving
the advisory board's boycott of Wil
liam McKlnley will not come up before
Thursday when a hot political wrangle
Is ejected to ensue. About 200 dele
gates from all parts of the country
were present today.
NliW TURKISH MINISTER.
vtutafu Taehsla Bey Will Represent tho
forte in tho United States.
Washington, May 12. The statement
cabled to the United Press from Con
stantinople several weeks ago that a
successor to Mavroyenl Bey. the Turk
ish minister In Washington, woutd be
appointed shortly, was confirmed to
day at the state department through
the receipt of a dispatch from John W.
Riddle, United States charge d'affaires
at Constantinople, that Mutufa Tachsln
Bey, principal assistant in the Turkish
foreign office, had been appointed min
ister to the United States.
Rumor has it that Mavroyeni's recall
is due to the displeasure felt by his gov
ernment over the passage by congress
of the Armenian resolutions.

by thousands of physicians. One
of the many testimonials we have
received is one from Dr. Arthur
P. Ginn of Omaha, which reads,
u I used Bovinine in several cases
of diphtheria, and was success
ful with the cases. This to me
is sufficient evidence of its value,
no other food being used during
treatment, except the milk used
as vehicle for its administration."
