Stingless Bee.

An Indiana bee keeplr has succeeded in breeding a race of stingless bees. They are a cross between Cyprus drones and Italian queens. These bees gather more and finer honey than their armed cousins and also resist disease better. In a letter received by Dr. Rose M. Remmek from a friend in New York city the latter tells of the death of Mrs. John Emison, formerly Miss Naomi Gregg, who taught in the high school of this city Jpr several years. Death occurred on April 11. Brief services were held in New York city by Bishop Hughes, who was the president of DePauw university at the time of the graduation of the deceased from that institution. Many of the alumni friends and sorority sisters of Mrs. Emison were present at the services. The remains were then shipped to Vincennes, this state, and services were conducted in the Methodsit church of that city. A little daughter, born eleven days prior to the death of the mother, was christened Miartha Eva. We carry a complete line of Goodyear, U. S., Goodrich, Michelin mid Ajax tires.
