Raleigh, Feb. 11.—There was a bill before the senate whose provisions sought to make the bees (honey bees) in Fender County move their domicles and places of business 100 yards back from the public highways in that county. Thebiilnow sleeps on the legislative cooling board —the table—and the author of the bill [gave his consent to its being placed there. When it look ed as if the bill might become a law, Senator Evans, of Bladen thoua:ht 50 yards was far enough to make them move back, and Judge Council wanted to make it 20 feet. When the bill came up today on its readings Senator Hawes, the author of the bill, told the senate “howcome'’ he introduced it. There is a rural mail carrier in Pender whose horse objects to be- stung by the Uttle honey makers, an d his complaint and request the accommodating sen ator said he had introduced the bill. Senator Jack Scott, of Ala mance, who is one of the quiet est and most amiable men in the senate, ,, who says very Httle, but alws has a smile and a good word for everything, came to the sup port of the bee bill, and surprised the senate by dropping into (for rising in to) poetry. He Ideclared that in his dreams last night, his mind dwelt upon Hawes’ bee bill, and as he pondered the muse worked, with this result. The lark is up to meet the sun, The Bee is on tlie wing; If Ha-.ves' bill don't get It will be an awful sling. The senator A wiser, sadder man ill then go home, 'T make the meeiing as it is tne anti O.iV Ciiatnber oi ,»in erce .'hould ger, in touch with the i ids'viily gentle;n in who desires a location itr a box factory.

Bently who recently resigneq his position with The Burlington Hosiery Mill and ac- hence several questions pertain- in town i ing to the years work will be con jsidered. The program will be I largely in the nature of confer ences and wdll be annouced next week. Nearly every school in the county is doing improvment work. The Shallow Ford scho'>l recen tly had a pie party t^^i it gave to the school $26.00. The school invested in new stove, black boarbs at)d others needed improv ments. The Elmira school has made several improvments this year fitted up a small room foroi library, painted the interior of house and put up black board Next Fridiv evening Feb. 14 at 7:30 the Eimira school will give a pie parcy, voting contest o cninK- ne.canno' iaw For all the Pender land, kmid applatise that extended ■to the Kgalieries, feL-nator Scutt took his seat and the success of ^ the bill seemed assured. i'^tit ; dosent take a man long to i reai csenator Mason sai^l so far as his y^Q had led him he had ' ■ ' for a Telephoise Girl. (From the New York Evening Woi'ld) Minnie Warner the highest paid switchboard operator m Chicago, is off for Europe with a case of telepho- nitis, after nine years of service. She IS paid $150 a month be cause of her velvet voice and personality. Of her work she said: “The bigger a man is the more polite he IS likely to be to girls m my position. I have found the_most influential men in the business to be the most patient and considerate of my feelings. A gentleman if he ishould so far forget himself as to say things in hot temper will apologize later. Here are a few switchboard aphorisms out of iVliss W^arner, s experience: Dont argue. The angry man will argue himself out of it if you let him alone. Dont snap. Remember that a “soft answer turneth away warth.” Dont be mechanical. Make every man on the wire believe that your softest tones are for him alone, Dont be indiferent. Make every kicker believe you are heart-broken bej^ause the line is busy. Dont flirt. Let the other flirt all he likes, bat you just laugh and attend to bu.ini ss, Dont be a prude. Dont hear what you are suoposed not to hear. Dnot get tired. No matter how tired you are, pretend you are as fresh as tiie davv.n and try to look it. “I hdve learned that men are far more amenable to reas n than women are. Some woni:ij are exceedingly unreasonable at al! times, and no matter v/hat their experience of the woriii they never seem|to find out the siiisplest rules ofjj,the game.

Tne liublic is invited. inquiry heard of only one man in the United States who wanted the bill passed: even the senator irom Pender had not asked the men in nis country v;ho own bees what they think abwut it, and he thought it was takir g jubt a little too much liberty with the rights of the people to say just how far from the public roads they mast keep their bee gums. Senator Hawes said he did not c.ire any thing about it, that he was not Hin authority on bees anyhow.
