After some further preliminaries convention ad journed to 1 :30 p. m. afternoon session. The cJhimittee on programme made a leport of the following topics for discussion; Wintering bees; Rational Increase of Colonies; Individuality of Colonies; Comb or Extracted Honey, which is more p.oiitable for the Bee Keepers; Marketing Honey: Bee Pasturage. They also announced that papers would be presented upon various topics. The secretary announced the death during the past year of Dr. Monger of Omaha, and Messrs. McLain and Corbett were appointed a committee to prepare suitable resolutions of re spect. He also reportod that the condition of the colonies through the state was such as to warrant fears of considera ble loss in some localities. The full statistics of the number of hives and the amount of honey aud wax produced fluting the past year, could not be obtained in time for the association. Before the tcpies w ei o taken up for discussion the question box was pro vided for tlit use of members during the convention. Discussion was opened uj on the first topic, Wintering Bees, by Mr. G. M. Hawley of Lincoln, vice president for Neluaska, of the National Be Keepers Association. He said it had been his custom to keep hives in the cellar during the winter, keeping out moisture from hives by use of un slaked lime placed at opening of hive keeping temperature from 30 to 50 by using ice in spring to regulate tem perature . By keeping them in cellar until April had not suffered much loss from Spring dwindling. He gave a detailed account of his exper ience in wintering bees and los5es sustained at various times. A perfect fusilade of questions a-id answers then followed between mem bers of convention, which brought out much practical information upon this and a multitude cf interesting points concerning management of bees. Mr. Fife of Corning, Iowa. Pies. S. W. Bee Keepers' Association, gave review of Bee culture in Iowa and stated among other interesting facts that a serious loss had been ex perienced in Mills and other counties the past season. Moisture in his opin ion was not always a great detriment, but desideratum was to secure pura air. He used water in summer access ible to yviing bees and thouglitin w in ter it was not a damage under syiiie conditfbns. It was rather the thaw ing and freezing and the moisture grow ing out of these changes which caused losses. Mr. Van Dorn gave a method for feeding bees water and honey in w in ter. Mr. Corbett cited Laugstrolh's method of invertir g a bottle with a candlewick inserted in a cork. The secretary then read i n essay by Chas. Dodcut of Hamilton, 111., on spring dwindling. This was followed by further discussion by members of Association. The evening session was devoted to presentation ef essajs. G. M. Hawley of Lincoln gave an interesting paper on Food Phiiits for bees which was followed by an able paper from Mr. F. Corbett of Omaha on Bee Pasturage. Mr. Van Dorn here gave some addi tional facts in regard to l.ee pasturage, and suggested that the Association prepare a list of plants etc. for Bee Pasturage and cultivation and recom mend the same for the use of Ne braska Eee Keepers. The Secretary then read a letter from Mrs. Benton in relation Xo the journey of her hus band to secure Java and Cypr.an queens, An essay from T. I Van Dorn next followed upon Bee Keeping for profit which elicited considerable discussion upon merits of new and oM comb in' the hives for the use of bees in build ing their stores of a we.itTTT, 7'."

It. seems that there is a mistaken impression in certain quarters ia re gard to the proposedsciiool legislation. In some papers it is said that a new school law lias been offered in the leg islature, should be clearly under stood that the bill now pending in tho ueuale contains not a new law, but simply a careful revision of the old. The form, indeed is new but the en tire scheme, plan, or groundwork of the present law is retained, with only such small modilicatiads as experience has shown to be needed. The very trilling change to be made in thu ad ministration of the law. If the revision is adopted, may be inferred from the fact that not oue blank form now furnished by the State Supt. will be thrown out of use by the revised law; nor will one have to be changed, un less in a dale or some small item of tint kind. It is not to be inferred from this that the changes proposed are unimportant; ou the contrary, many of them are of great conse quence. They are calculated to pre vent abuses, to secure justice, to throw guards around the funds so generously raised for the support of schools that they may noi bo stolen, wasted or un guarded. There is a well-grounded dislike to frequent changes in our laws, and especially to a change in one which like our school law is ad ministered by so maay people. The revised school law, if adopted will not occasion the least difficulty in this di rection. The number of oflicer. their duties, responsibilities, and privileges will remain substantially the same. In short it is my deliberate opinion that the adoption of the proposed re vision will be of as much value to the additional expenditure of school pur poses as fifty thousand dollars, in the next two years. That this is not an extravagant estimate every one well Informed on the situation will agree. It will be remembered that the bond law, enacted by the la3t legislature, had the effect to raise the selling price of school bonds from 82 (the average market price under the old law) to par for bonds issued under the new. and this too though the old bonds paid ten per cent and the new ones but seven. But this bond law was originally a part of the revision now pending, and was taken up and passed by the last legislature, when it was found that there.was not time Xo get . the whole revision through! It would seem that the cood results of the small part of .ri""' M '-.., , s!L ."Jnteijmfrfcr afford some- ground for prepossession in iavor or me remaiuuci. The educators who nre asking the Legislature to amend the school law have had the subject under considera tion a long time. It is not icasonable to PYBPrt that the Droposed changes will be made without cjoso scrutiny.iis but it is reasonable to urrre that cr was ful attention bo lstowTrf.'tSf-t?;:? subject. That the general character of the changes may be understood, tho reader is refered to the communica tion in this column from Mr. Thomp son. There is no one in Nebraska who has had equal opportunity for knowl edge of the working of the present, law. lie is in no danger of overlook- inn the most remote district. Ho is authority upon common-school law and common-school needs.

The Musical Herald for Febru rary is one of the best uuuibers yet issued of this leading musical maga zine. It opens with a Immorous illus tration, "The Musical Committee in Session," which is in every res poet a capital "hit,"ovei flowing with sarcasm. An article ou "Wasted Talent, Uy Dr. E.Tourjee, speaks in a very practical manner on the number of young voices which could be advantageo asly used in church, Sunday, and public school, and the most efficient manner of their instruction. Mr. Gotthold Carlberst. tho well-known symphonic- condu, of New York, contributes an instruct-" ive paper upon "Modern JnttfiTnenta- I tion," wherein tho" una nd abuse o different orchestral instruments are fully discussed. Mr, W. F. Apthorp. draws many useful thought for tho advancement of the present art from the history of the past. Mr, Louis CI j Elson, in an essay on "Criticism," de- v fends tlm crit'c from the necessity of i art-creation, and proves that the best, composers, poets, and painters Lave been the pworest critics. There is an excellent paper giving "Hints to Teach ers of the Piano-forte. The interesting serial story of "The New Tenor' is Doneluded The departments of For eign and Editorial .Note."-. Questious and Answers, Critiques, Reviews of Music, Hymns and their Authors, etc.p etc., are piquant, brilliant, and reliable.

It used to be a great thli g. sayi New York correspondent, to bo millionaire that is, to be worth I million but that was in the old-fash ioned time before tho war. Nowadays millionaires are almost common. You could hardly fire a gun on Fifth aven ue without hitting one. The boss millionaire, so to speak, is of course, Mr. Vanderbilt, who can count at least 8100,000,000 that is all his own. There was a time when this sama Vander bilt applied iu vain to his lather for n few hundred dollars to pay off a mor gage on a farm he was working on Sta en island. Jay Gould is following hi ill up pretty fast. People are not in th i habit of giTing Gould much creJiv for any thing, but he is nt least enti tled to the credit of having made all his money himself. Ho is believed to b. worth about 850,000,000 now, and there are men in Wall street who bo lievo he will yet overtake Vanderbilt. The recognized head of the Astor family is worth not less then 330,000, 000 in his own right, aud the aggregate wealth of tho family, counting its sev eral branches, would probably turn 8100,000.000. James R. Keene, who came here from California not very long ago to teach Wall street soma no tricks, is thought to be worth some 810,000,000. Ex-Gov. Morgan is considered good for the same amount, and has made most of it in Wall street since he retired from Albany. The figure usually credited to William E. Dodge is S5.000.000. There area score of others rate from that J A'.rto 82,000,000 and more than another score worth 81,000.000 at least. And not a man among them all but knows how to take care of his money. I could name two or three who are down-right miseis, never parting with a siugle dollar till they know they have receiv ed its full value in return. But thin may not be any body's business but their own. I may mention, however, the case of one very rich fellow, worth, according to report, not less than S3, 000,000, who was waited on by some ladies not long since, and asked for a subscription for a churcki fair. lie knew them personally, and he put them off three times, and it was only by the hardest work that they manag ed to get 310 out of him at last. Ehricii Bros., of Eighth Avenue, New York, areout betimes with the New Premium List of Ehricii' Fashion Quarterly for 1881; and it is astonishing to see what ample in ducements they are able to offer to canvassers. Their system of combi nation subscriptions and subscription premiums is highly ingenious, and ren ders it possible for an energetic can vasser to obtain a handsome cash re muneration for his or her labor. Among the new premiums are somo very beautiful illuminate! Scripture Tablets and Cards, which will be ap preciated by all interested in Sunday School and Church work. Accompanyinp the Premium List is an interesting pamphlet entitled " Shopping in New York," which give3 an aniinateddescription of the systers' ai.d economy of a great New York store, as well as an illustrated price hat of a host of articles of general necessity, which may be ordered by mail or exppos. A genuine novelty, introduced for the first time in this pamphlet, is the system of tornishirg unmade dresses in certain styles, of which illue'tions are given. Fora fixed price, the purchaser receives the pattern and the entire material for making up, including lining, sewing silk, buttons, and, in short, every thing but the needle and thimble. Tho ad. yadtage of this system, to a lady who wishes to do her own sewing, is obvi ous. The two pamphlets can be obtained by sending a postal card w ith the ad dress to Ehricii Bros., 235 to 295 Eighth Avenue, New York.
