At the first session an executive committee was appointed eonslsting of Prof. Culbertson, Lincoln; Mr'. IlilJebiaud, Sarpy Co.; Otto My re, Bellevue. Keports were given by Messrs. W. Stalley,of Orand Island; Dodder, of AVahoo;"Kn forth, A. J. McCane, T. L. VauDoren. Iiouse, of Omaha; Ilollingsworth, of Milford, and Prof. Culbertson and others, giv- in rise to interestiong discussion. The Treasurer's report gave a balance on hand of S'.'.OO. Tlie coiuuiittee on revision of constitution and by-laws asked to be relieved and a new com mittee was appointed consisting of Messrs. My re. Culbertson and Ililde brand. Tlie subject for the evening session was decided by a question box to be left open until 7 p. m. Messrs. 15. B. Kennedy, of Omaha, and 1. II. 1 Wheeler, of Plattsmouth. were made honorary members. -At 7 p. m. the President's address was read, after which, on morion of Prof. Culbertson, a committee of three consisting of Messrs. Treiters, Culbert son and Col well was appointed to con sider the proposition in the address. Remarks followed by Prof. Culbertson on the wintering of bees ; he put hay all over the hives, had fust taken oil honey board, put on one thickness of sheeting and filled the cap with dry cobs; did . not open until spring; thought it a good plan to punch holes in upper pait of brood combs; the re quisites for successful wintering were first, an even temperature as near 40 as possible, second, ventilation by a hole 7 of an inch above, and the en trance. Mr. lleuse though the Inst thing was to. have plenty of young bees to begin winter with; attained by stimulating in fall; bees should be confined "on ns few combs as they could cover; thought a chaff box suf ficient ventilation; punched holes in brood frames so bees could go from onij frame to another; would rather not have sun shine on hives from fall till spring. Mr. Treiter s experience had been bad, took five colonies on shares, lost them all first winter. Mr. VanDoren thought successful winter ing of bees required application of natural laws, pure, dry air, ventilation and food. Mr. Colwell thought the discussion of the subject of keeping bees in winter occupied more time in association and was farther from be ing settled than any other; what suc ceeded one winter failed another; a good cellar was the best place to keep them, a poor cellar the bst to kill them.. Mr. Ilawley. favored the cel lar method of wintering them. Had nevt r lost over.lo ;er cent.; his cellar about 7 feet deep, one chimney and two windows for ventilation. . Ad journed. ' Jan. i:th the election of. officers took place, the present incumbents being in each case re-elected. T. VanDoren, president, Omaha; S." I... Thomas, riattsmouth, vice president; J.' M. Ilawley, Lincoln, secretary ; irank Colwell, JJellevue, treasurer. The reyised constitution and by-laws were then read ; oa motion the secre tary instructed to copy them into the minutes. Discussion of the subject of bee pas turage followed; buckwheat, rape, motherwort, matrimony vine, wild cucumber and raslerry were all spo ken of highly, also spider plant and jasmine. In the'afternoon session the various breeds were discussed as well as many other matters of interest. A collec tion was taken up for T I. Lang stroth, who after spendiig his life in advancing apiculture was.left at eigh ty penniless by litigation concerning his patents, and all parties so wishing were invited to take apiary pro ducts to next state fair, after ex hibition to be sold and the proceeds to be sent to Mr. Lanstroth A vote of thanks was tendered the people of Ashland for their hospitality and free use of hall, also to the I. & M. and U. P. Roads for liberal reduction of fares. The executive committee were in structed to confer with the State Board of . Agriculture concerning a mode of distributing premiums that would result in better satisfaction to exhibitors. Adjourned. The meeting was the best, altogeth er, that has ever been held.

Alden, who organized the "Literary Re volution." which has given the people the best of books at such wonderfully low prices, does not 2ive up the liyht with the failure of The American Book Exchange," which' failure, he claims, was in no respect tlie result of selling books too cheaply, but was caused by the combi nation of publishers and booksellers against the enterprise; infamous and baseless slander being scattered broad cast culminated in a "panic among the creditors of the institution, caus ing a "run" which resulted in the fail ure of the company, just as it has often caused the failure of banks or other institutions perfectly solvent uuder ordinary conditions. lie and other friends of the enterprise have organized ."The Useful Knowledge Publishing Company," and a literary Rebellion which proposes to carry on the fight. The first work published by the new company is a beautiful edi tion of Macaulay's "Life of Frederick the lireat," which they sell lor the marvellously low price of 20 cents, neatly bound in sloth. The company proposes to begin immediately the publication of a series of cyclopaedias one of history, one of biography, one of science, one of choice prose litera ture, one of poetry, and one of relig ious literature -each of which cyclo pedias will be in several large octavo volumes, of over lOoO pages each, at the price of S1.2o per volume, in cloth binding, and will also be published in numbers, at only two cents per num ber, being considerably below even the "revolution" prices! They will send specimen pages and catalogues free, and friends of choice literature at low prices will be sure to shower them with postal cards, at least.

The . old fashioned stories which the unhappy boys of the last generation read have been succeeded by the manly and fas cinating criminal novel. In the old storv-books it was assumed that truth fulness, honesty, and obedience to pa rents were virtues, and that the Chris tian religion was not wholly devoid of merit, if these views were not di rectly taught in the juvenile literature of our fathers, at all events they were never directly or indirectly attacked. Boys could learn nothing from their story-books except preposterous plati tudes nothing that was of an7 prac tical use, or that tended to develop in them manly and brilliant traits. Xo such complaint can be made of the dime and half-dime novels of the criminal school which are now read oy all our ooys, either openly or sec retly. In these delightful stories new forms of profaiiity and slang "are taught in the most effective way. The pleasures of bmglary ami highway robberv, the manliness of gambling and fighting, and the haroism of successful lying, are set forth in what is regarded by youthful readers as glowing elo quence; while the great truths that all parents are tyrants, that all religious people ure hypocrites, and that disobe dience to fathers and teachers is bedi ence to the nobler instincts of juvenile nature, are sedulously taught. Such stories as these develop all' that is manly and lawless- iu our boys, and teach them lessons that e.n not fail to be of immense service to 'them in whatever criminal career they may adopt. . - Theie are a few old-fashioned peo ple who denounce the new juvenile literature in unsparing terms; but that nearly all fathers approve of it is self-evident. They know that -their boys are. reading novels Illustrative of the excellence of crime, but they make no effort to suppress that sort of literature, as they certain ly would do did they disapprove of it. Nothing would be simpler than to drive those novels out of existence. All that it would bo neeessary to do would be to "Boycott the news-dealers who kr-ep them for sale. The truth evidently is that fathers either uo not, care wnai ineir boys read, or that they have no f;iult to find with Jack Ilarkaway and the Boy Burgling. Jtcannote that rfspectable genth- men who dislike crime, profanity, and vulgarity willfully refuse to know what th; ir bovs are reading, or weakly fhope that by some happy chance their reading will do them no harm.

Hans were guests at a leading Milwaul oo. hotel, and tho iadios had a great deal of amusement studying tlieir customs. That is, lliey all did except one lady. Tho ladies called upon the Indians, and the savag es returned the calls almost before tho la-lics got to their rooms. One of llio ladies called on a chief and then went to her room and retired, and pretty soon there was a knock at her door.and she found that it was tho chief. Sho told him to come in the morning. Tho lady unlocks her door in the morning, so that tho porter can couio in and build a liro before she gets up. Sho heard a knock in the morning, and, supposing it was tho porter, she said. "Come in." The door opened, and in walked Mr. Indian. Sho took one look, and pulled tho bed-clot lies over her head. - He sat down on the side of the bed, and said: "IIowP" Well, she didn't know "How" from Adam. Sho said lo him, in the best Sioux that sho could command, "Please, good Mr. In dian, go away until I get up;" but ho didn't seem to bo in a hurry. Ho picked up pieces of her wearing appar el from the lloor, different ankles that ho didn't seem to know anything about where they were worn, and made com ments on them iu the Sioux tongue. The stockings seemed to paralyze his untutored mind the most. They were those long, 90-degrce in the shado stockings, and they wero too much for his feeble intellect. Ho hold them up by the toes and said "Ugh!" The lady trembled and wished ho would go awaj-. He seemed to take great delight in examining tlie hair on the bureau, and looking at the lady a3 much as to say, "Poor girl, some hostile tiibe has mado war on the pale face and takun many scalps." Finally, she happened to think of the bell, and she rang it its though the house was on lire, and pret ty soon tho porter came and invited tlie Indian to go down stairs find take a drink. The lady locked that !oor loo quick, and sho will never h ave it open again when there are Indians in town. She says her hair on the bureau fair ly turned gray from fright. What They Tat iu Africa. An African correspondent of J''ood and Health, speaking of tho habils of the people and incidents, says: Of course hunter's food, such as ele phant loot, uullalo liump, sea cow, giraffe, and the hundreds of different kinds of deer that abound in various parts of the country are all more or less good eating, especially when you have a good supply of Danu Nature's sauce, hunger, on hand. I also found the coney or rock rabbit a fair dish, al though too much liko a large rat to look pleasant on the table. The natives of tho country arc not, as a rule, reat meat eaters, living generally on corn (called there mealies), milk, pumpkins, and a sort of sugar cane, now ami then gong iu for a feast of meat. I have often considered whether to this way of living may be ascribed tho really won derful manner in which they recover from wounds. In the Zulu war I saw four persons wounded in the legs with bullets, one of them especially having received a bullet just below the knee, smashing all the bonesi and leaving a hole that 3u could see through. Tho doctors said the only hope for any of them was amputation. This they refused t ) allow, and they would do nothing but four cohl water from time to time. When I la-t saw them all but the worst could walk alone, and his wound looked healthy, the Lone having grown togeth er, ami knitted q'dte strongly. No white man could have lived without an operation. On tho otljcr hand, these men aoon succumb to illness or dis ease. . Said Mrs. Smith, who had come to spend the day. to little Kdiih: "Are vou glad to see me again, Edith?"1 Ldith: "Yes, m'm; and mamma's glad, too!" Mrs. Smith: "Is she?" Kdiih: "Yes, m'm; she said sho hoped you'd come to-day, and have it over with." Lauffhed At. Susceptible youths generally make fools of themselves when lhey wax too sweet in girls' society. An Ohio mer chant says that when he was about seventeen years old l.e made a trip to Cleveland "in the old-fashioned stage coach, with its spanking four horses. At Mount Vernon, about four P. M., a pretty girl got Into the coach. She sat in the back seal, next to an chicly, farmer-like-Iookiiig man. I was on the middle seat immediately in front of her. L soon struck tip a pleasant dint with her. She was a c'larming talker, and almost as brilliant as she was pret ty. It loolced as if we were mutually pleased. When darkness c:imo, I con cluded there would be no harm in giv ing her hand a gentle squ e.e. I reached behind ami got hold of the hand. I was a little startled at t' e hardness, .but it returned a viee-'ike pressure. , I squeezed a-rain, nnd it squeezed back. A sense of dis:ippoiiil ment would steal over me when in my mind I would contrast - the seeming toughness of her hand with the tender ness ami sweetne-s of her voic. The contact did not seem lo arlerializo my blood quite up to the point of -exhilaration. At last she reached her destina tion, and left the coach. After we had started again, that old man who sat be side her addressed me: "Young man, do you feel ail right? You had a nice time tugging at my old paw for the last five miles; hope you enjoyed it." The two young ladies in tho front seat giggled all the way to-the next station," and the gentlemen passen gers didn't forget to smile when I looked up. 0. MAYE: In a Tight riaca.

Al that moment he noticed the pale faee of a boy peering from below decks. Tlie lad was a s:o.vaway. A few hours ago he was a Mica';, an unworthy thing, a miserable pilferer of privilege-; but now tho skipper only remembered he was a human being,to b ; saved if poible, at any rate not to b left behind.
