preparing to start for America to solicit
aid for famlne-Btrlcken Ireland. Bal
four caused their arrest and they were
put under heavy bonds that will prevent
any tour ot America by them this fall.
They claim that the object ot the arrest
is to prevent the securing of money and
food, that the. starving people may be
forced to accept free passage to Amer
ica. The prosecution claims that no such
object is sought, but that the men have
counseled resistance to the law.
O'Brien's arrest Is based on a speech
which he made the preceding Sunday,
In which, referring to the potato crop
and the gloomy outlook, he said " ten
ants should meet and consult as to what
proportion of the rent they could pay,
and abide by thedecision. If tenants
absolutely refused to pay a penny of

Shall our daughters receive a business
education? This has been a perplexing
problem in the bast, and It Is stUl per
plexing. All problems are incorrect un
less they can be proved. Now lt it can
be proved that our daughters are not as
capable of mastering all the different
studies belonging to the regular school
course as their brothers I wl'l stand cor
rected ; otherwise I shall remain a' firm
advocate ot the same business education
for the one rs for the other. Less than
a century ago It was believed that If the
daughters in a family could read and
write they bad education enough, and a
college for women waa unheard of; if a
woman could have been found bold
enough to speak in publlo she would
have been considered Insane. A lady
physician was uncalled for, while a fe
male lawyer would have been deemed
an absurdity. But after a time parent
began, very slowly at first, to awaken to
the Idea that the smart girl was the
equal of the smart boy.
The first woman physician knocked at
the door of first one medical college,
then another, but could find none In
America brave enough to admit ber;
she resolved to cross the ocean, and
there she met with a different reception,
pursued her course ot study and made a
grand success ot It. A few years later
our colleges opened their doors. Other
girls followed In her path, and in this
calling we find women extremely suc
cessful. Woman is eminently qualified to enter
the ministry, and almost all denomina
tions allow her that privilege. In the
lecture field the amount of good women
are doing for the cause of temperance
and other reforms can hardly be esti
mated. Would there were more like Mrs.
Liver more! I cannot see why there is
any objection to allowing women in the
law schools.
All our girls cannot enter the profes
sions; neither can all the boys; nor
would they desire to do so, even had
they the ability; but both have talents
in which thejr esoeL. Study them well;
And out what that talent Is; then aivo
them that business education which will
make them self-reliant and self-supporting.
A recent news Item says ot a woman
president ot a railroad corporation that
she Is the first woman In the history of
American railroad building who held
that office. The smartest census enu
merator was reported to be a woman.
Women are filling all sorts ot business
positions, and what has wrought this
wonderful change Is simply this: Our
daughters are beginning to receive the
same business education as their broth
ers. A father once said In my presence : " I
hare spent a great deal ot money edu
cating my daughter. Now she Is about
to marry and it will amount to noth
ing." But surely an educated wife and
mother will be enabled the better to ed
ucate and rear her own children, ae the
development resulting from an education
will be transmitted from mother to
child.
The grange has done a grand, good
work in this direction. There we see the
boy and girl enjoying the same privi
leges. The suffrage question need not be dis
cussed In connection with the education
of our girls. It is a question by and of
Itself. Yet place the brothers in our po
sition to-day and we should have another
long and cruel war. They do not believe

Has Notes.
Beginners in bee culture should con
tent themselves with following the rules
of prominent apiarists. If he commences
with too many colonies at once the be
ginner is almost sure to make a failure.
A few shrubs or bushes around the
apiary are useful as settling-places In
swarming time; but these should not be
too near the hives so as to prevent the
tree flight ot the bees to and from their
work. Some low plants ot some kind
near the hives will provide acceptable
resting-places for tired workers return
ing from distant fields. Grapevines
make a very desirable shade for bees in
summer. If I weie starting a new
eplary I should plant a grapevine at the
corner of each hive. ......
As regards the quarter ot the compass
toward w filch the hive bhould face there
Is but little difference. When picking
out a location for an apiary the position
of trees, buildings, etc, must be taken
Into consideration. An apiary should not
be located too near a dwelling-house nor
near a publlo highway. If you have a
mall place and are forced to keep your
apiary near a highway, plant out a
hedge of Osage orange trees or some
thing of that sort, and as soon ss they
are high enough (about ten feet) your
bees will not bother travelers along the
road, because when they are coming and
going they necessarily By high to get
over the hedge. A row of poplar trees
planted close together will soon form a
good wall to keep the bees from the road
and will also make abundant shade In
summer.
The position of hives should not be
shifted without very strong reasons.
Even if moved but a few feet It confuses
the returning bees so that sometimes
they never find their hive. If you have
occasion to move a hive a short dis
tance, It la a good idea after getting It
moved to place a few sticks of wood
before the entrance, In order to make
the bees take notice and mark their new
location. If you move bees two or three
miles there Is not much danger of their
returning to their old home. Occasion
ally It becomes advisable to make
changes, as In dividing, uniting, etc, but
then no bad results will ensue because
at the old location part of their old
home ia left. It bees are united right
there ia not much danger of their return
ing but, if they do, place a hive contain
Ing a frame of unsealed brood where
their old location was, and at evening
remove the frame of brood and place It
where yon want it.
Do not allow a colony to starve to
death the coming winter ; it does not
cost much to feed a few needy ones, and
they will repay you fully the coming
season. Feed with a good feeder in the
upper story at night; remove the feeder
In the daytime, as the smell ot the feed
