Institute Notes.
The Cass County Teachers' Insti
tute, now being held at Weeping
Water, has just finished the first
week's good, faithful work.
Holding the institute at this time
of the year was something of an ex
periment, but one which- has
proved very successful, all agreeing
that it is much more pleasant to
study at this time of the year than
in the heat of summer as heretofore.
Prof. Noble aa conductor provea
himself fully competent for the
position. He is greatly to be com
mended for having secured such
able assistants. Prof. A. H. Water-
house, Prof. Miller of Lincoln, editor
of the Northwestern Journal of
Education, jIisa Tucker of Lincoln
and Supt. floble have charge of
classes in ail the branches which
our county teachers need.
There are over one hundred
teachers in attendance
Plattsmouth ia represented by
Misses Bertha Porter, Olive Boyd

Mra. Bert Sage and Mra. Alta

A Good "Tom Show."
Middaugh, Piaff & Goodman's New
Orleans "Uncle Tom's Cabin" com
pany, with their gold band, came to
the Seattle Opera House for a mati
nee and evening performance
Thanksgiviug day to a good busi
ness. The performance proved that
lhere is one "Tom show" on the road
that is no humbug, and greatly
pleased the large audience it drew.
They carry -a splendid uniformed
gold band and made an excellent
appearance on the street, which
proved here, as it does everywhere,
a great drawing card. Want of
space forbids the individual men
tion the players decerve. Suffice it
to say, however, that the perfor
mance is a good oneand will be well
worthy the largest patronage. A

were.introduced by the great charac

WHAT THE LEGISLATURE DID.
Iowa People Satisfied That no Great

Des Moines, la., April 3. The
Twenty-fourth general assembly ad
journed on March 30 after a session
of twelve weeks. Not a trreat deal I
was uone uiai win onem the peo
pie, but then not much harm result
ed, so that it was a pretty good thing
for the state anyway. The most im
portant features, probably, was the
appropriation of $125,000 for the state
exhibit at the Columbian exposition;
the passage of the Norris Austral
ian ballot bill, and the appropria
tion of $150,C30 for a soldiers' monu
ment to be erected on the site of the
old capitol.
The appropriation committee did
a good deal of hard work. They had
requests irom me various stale in
stitutions asking for uti aggregate
of $3,000,CO0, and only had about $050,
0CD to distribute. They managed to
divide this up fairly, and each insti
tution will lia"e to wait another two
years before they can get an increase.

Barbarian Bee Communities.
The so called queen bee is really the
mother of the hive. Her functions are
maternal rather than regal. If she may
be said to reign in a certain sense, the
workers rule, deciding all questions and
performing all acts affecting the com
mon weal. Populous and powerful bee
communities sometimes relapse into
barbarism, renounce the life of peaceful
industry for which they have become
proverbial, acquire predatory habits and
roam about the country as freebooters,
plundering the smaller and weaker
hives and subsisting on the spoils.
These brigand bees seldom reform; if
they busily "improve each sinning hour"
it is not to "gather honey all the day
from every opening flower," but to
range the fields in looting parties and
ransack the homes of honest honey
makers. Against these marauders of
apian society and other foes the honey
bees often fortify their hives, barricad
ing the entrance by a thick wall, with
bastions, casemates and deep, narrow
gateways. When there seems to be no
immediate danger : hostile attack these
defensive works, winch seriously inter
fere with the ordinary industrial life of
the hive, are removed and not rebuilt
until there is fresh occasion for alarm.
