--Master Eddie Luce, aged 15 years,
of whom we had a short item in last
week's issue of this paper, regarding his
success as an apiarist, is much move an
expert than we had supposed. He has
successfully transferred several hives of
bees, and manipulates the fierce little
luy without tVar either to himself or
inconvenience to the "busy little bee."
Transferring bees is the work of a pro
fessional apiarist, and Eddie is now
eligible to a scut among such experts.
A few weeks ago he sent East for a
queen, and has succeeded in having her
placed npon the throne in a busy hive
of bees. The queen cnnie through the

Wapatoites are vicing with the balance

surrounding it. We only wish the line

The people in Powell's Valley and
nt
Pleasant Home, and at Damascus, in
Clackamas county, have been badly
taken in and done for by a coupb; of
peddlers dealers iy diy goods. They
been going from bouse to bouse among
the farmers, ami indie ing them to invest
in cloth from which to make eight suits
of clothing, for which they charge $I.,0.
If the farmer has not the ready cash on
hand, his note for the $150 is readily
taken. "When they came to Powell's
Valley they first got some one t. take
them around to those farmers who were
well situated, so that all the notes are
on gfod men. It is stated that no less
than $18,000 in notes were obtained in
this way, and hv othecatcd for cash at
Oregon City. At Pleasant Home settle
ment nine made purchases of the ped
dlers. Ibit the seiiial of the whole
atl'air is that the parties making Jthe
purchase for f 150 did not obtain more
than 23 worth of goods for the money.
At Pleasant Home the following were
among those who were victimized;
Hoffman, the two Kellys, Lusted, Hub
erts, Lake, IJoss, Ilejnobls and Williams.
They all deHare they have no idea how
they came to buy the good-, as they bad
no use for them. One man is reHirted
to have bought four packages, which
amounted to $G0O. When the peddlers
came to Mr. Lusted's place they werejmetic." Thinks text liooks of mental
told that none of the goods were want-
ed. Nevertheless, they obtained per-
mission to show them, and w hen thet
peddlers left they hid $130 from Lusted,
and he had about $23 worth of goods in
return. Our informant says s.ome c.f
those who gave their notes w ill certainlv
be seriously embarrassed before they are
through with it. The peddlers are still
at work securing fre-h victims. Ore-

good order. Every school should le
supplied with charts and other ap
paratus. The subject of "Cororal Punishment" j
was brought Wfore the institute by Dr. J
Gilkey. The doctor's success has never
sati-rled him. Thinks corporal punish-

with corporal punishment in schools

If we know all the methods of op-
proaeh adopted by an enemy, we are the
better enabled to ward off the danger
and postpone the moment when surren
der becomes inevitable. In many in
stances the inherent strength of the
body suffices it to oppose the tendency
toward death. Many, however, have
lost these forces to such an extent that
there is little or no help. In other
cases a little aid to the wenkened Lung
will make all the difference between
sudden dentil and many years of useful
life. lion the fitt symptoms of a
Cough, Cold or any trouble of the
Throat or Lungs, give that old and
well-known remedy lloschee's German
Syrup a careful tiial. It will prove
what thousands fny of it to Ik, the
"benefactor of anv home."
