House Refuses the Speaker
$2,500 a Year For Auto.
INSURGENTS JOIN DEMOCRATS.
Uncle Joe, White With Anger,
leaves Chair, Defies Foes and
Declares He Will Hold
Office Until March.
Washington, April 12. A conlltlcm
between Itopubllcau Insurgents and
Democrats against the provision in the
Jcglslntivo Mil appropriating 52.500 for I
maintenance of the speaker's uutotno- j
bile resultcil in the rejection today of ,
that part of tlio conference report on
the bill.
After the house by a vote of 131 to
111 had refused to agree to senate 1
amendments in the legislative bill til
lowing the vice prcsldont and the
speaker ?2,50O each for the mainte
nance of their government automo
biles Uncle Joe, whlto with anger, left
the speaker's chair and strode down
on tho floor of the house.
The same Republican lusurgeuis who
savo him so much trouble In thu big
row a few weeks ago, when lie was
eliminated from tho committee on
rules, had joined onco more with the
Democrats to strike out tho appropria
tion for the maintenance of his motor
ear. Evidently Uncle Joe took this as
personal affront, and for a few min
utes his feelings ran away with him
to an extent not equaled, In public at
least, In years.
He declared, shaking his menacing
forellngcr, that utdess those same in
surgents Joined with the minority to
vacate the speaker's chair ho would
servo out his term as presiding officer
f the house of representatives.
"I am entirely content," said he,
"whatever action tho house may take,
but I want to notify you that unless
during this and the next session of
congress the Republicans upon this
side that do not approve of the per
sonality of their speaker have the
courage to join with a solid minority I
will remain speaker until the 4th of
March next.
"And whilo 1 do not ask and have
never asked the appropriation for
transportation to the speaker of the
tou.se, if you vote it 1 will use it just
s I use It now. If you see proper not
to do it because of personal dislike to
the present occupant of the speaker's
thuir I care not"
llr. Cannon spoke rather .freely on
several other subjects. lie defended
the Payne-Aldrlch tariff bill, denounc
ed the "lying press" and predicted the
success of tho Republicans at the polls
in November.
"It is some months until November,"
he said. "By the aid of a critical
press, with the assistance of dispatch
es and headlines which rarely tell the
truth, our friends expect to achieve
success ut the polls. While the press
is powerful as it affects public senti
ment, there is more than nn even
chance when November comes that
you Democrats will wake up the day
after the election and liud that the
Intelligent citizenship of a great re
public has proved you a false irophet
again, as it has proved you to be a
false prophet every two years for the
last decade."
Then the speaker took his seat. The
regulars made more noise at this, but
the temper of the house was not
changed, for on a separate vote taken
immediately after Uncle Joe ceased
speaking the elimination of the appro
priation for his automobile was re
affirmed. Champ Clark, the Democratic leader,
was wildly applauded by his colleagues
when ho declared that if the Demo
crats won out In November nud ho
was elected speaker he would do all
in his power to make good tho recent
assertion of Senator Aldrich of Rhode
Island that the government could be
run $300,000,000 a year cheaper than
at the present time.

governor, and you have continued do
ing so ever since I have been In office.
You are the only man who lias tried
to bulldoze me into signing this bill."

onslaught of the governor, but as he
nrosc to reply tho governor iminedi
ntely declared the hearing nt an end
and retired to his prlvnte office.

BEES
AND ''
$ BEE KEEPING
METHOD OF FILLING FEEDERS.
Can Be Done by Using Small Teapot
with Rubber Tube Attached.
My bees nnnoyed mo by rushing
out when I lifted tho cover boxes
from the Alexander feeders. Further
more, when no honey was coming in,
nnd robbers were prying around, it
made trouble to do much feeding,
writes H. A. Moody In Gleanings in
Bee Culture. I made n block, C, ns
shown in tho illustration; bored a
hole through It, through which T put
one end of a two-foot piece of one-qunrter-lnch
rubber tubing. I slipped
the other end of the tubo over tho
snout of n small tin teapot, and then
Filling Feeder.
my troubles censed. ! pa the proper
dose In the pot, shin itio cover, and
set it down by tho hive. Then with
the feeding-block, C, I slid the feeder
cover aside until the finger holding
C touched tho side o the feeder;
then with one hnnd I could keep the
blocks In place, while with tho other
I poured in tho feed through the tubo.
No bees are disturbed, and the feeder
cover is slid back where It belongs,
without any trouble.
Hard Worked Bees.
A quaint method of working tho
tees overtime was given by one of the
enthusiasts, who claims that the bees
really enjoy the "busy" life through'
out the year when they find them
selves where honey-producing blos
soms are plentiful.
"My bees now work overtime," he
said. "No hibernating for them, tn
the spring I send them down South
and thoy toil like blazes among tho
Southern flowers. In summer I bring
them here to tb"j East, working them
till tho honeysuckle and tho clover nro
-quite gone. The autumn season finds
them in Florida, where they make a
peculiarly rich and aromatic honey
from the Florida flowers. California
gives them all they can do In tho
winter.
"It's a splendid idea. I got it from
those hotelkeepers of Europe who
have winter hotels on the Riviera and
summer hotels at Dlnard or Trouvllle.
My travelling bees yield thrice ns
much honey as stay at home ones.
Thank goodness, there are no labor
unions among these insects."
The beekeepers who on the other
band are content to have their bees
remain in tho same place throughout
the year nnd work during the blossom
time of fruits, flowers, the barley and
clover and wayside flowers were con
sulted as to the best methods of hous
ing the bees during the winter.
Some experts are in favor of shel
tering the colony by placing all the
hives In a sort of open pen, snugly en
closed on the north and left open to
tho southern exposure. These en
closures are preferably long and nar
row and but little higher than the
hives, which are set close together
In a straight line. Hero the summer
Workers hibernate during the coldest
Winter weather and so cosey and warm
are their winter quarters that they
are strong and hardy and ready for

Bee Notes.
Never waste timo wintering weak
colonies.
Cold appears to be a main elomcnt
In granulation.
November Is the month' to pack tho
colonies for winter.
If honey is overheated both color
nnd transparency are injured.
Have as many young bees as pos-
Bible to go into winter quarters.
Strong colon 1 03 protect themselves
ngalnst robbers and bee moths.
Bees hatched in the fall will llvo
through tho winter until spring.
Bees travel long distances in search
of honey and pollen; they travel from
tree to tree- and distribute tho pollen
from one tree to another; from one or
chard to the other.
Removing Honey.
In removing honey, as with almost
any other operation with bees, choose
daylight after tho bees aro out In the
fields In force, when they will be out
of tho way. A great lot of bees piled
up on the combs, tdlo ana out of hu
mor are a nuisance to bo avoided if
possible. Don't forget to have tho
smoker well filled and going good be
fore beginning, nnd lot thorn have
smcko nil along at any time they seem
to need It to keep them from stinging,
Bees In America,
Bees were unknown to tho Indians
hut they were brought over from Eng'
land only a few years after tlio lanff-
Ing of the Pilgrim Fathers. It was
moro than two centuries after tho
first whlto invasion of New England
however, before modern beekeeping
began. The Industry of the present
day dates from tho Invention of tho
