Montreal, June 26.—The bones and common stock of the Dominion Steel Company have been underwritten two or three times over. The issue decided upon by the promoters is 88,000,000 in 30-yeer 6 per cent. gold bonds, of which 86,000,- 000 will be sold, while the common stook will amount to 815,000,000. The allot- ment will be made at a meeting to be held in Boston in the near future, but Canada will be given at least $6,000,000, and in fact the capitalists of the Domin- ion were ready to take the whole issue. The Merchants' Bank of Halifax has ap. plied for an interest that extends up to $1,200,000, Mr. H. M. Whitney, the presi- dent, also wants a million, while Toronto has applied for about a million and a quarter. the Queen City being represenb- ed on the board of directors by Senator Cox and Ellai Rogers. In order that the tremendous propor- tions of this enterprise may be appreci- ated, it is only necessary to say that the Ritter -Connolly Company of Pittsburg have a contract for the furnaces, the amount involved being 82,500,000, the same to be completed within 17 menthe.. The steel works will ale° mean an ex- penditure of $1,500,000 more and it addi- tion to this 500 coke ovens will be built, costing 81,500 earth. D1411^,11rOUS for Missionaries.

Two of tbe Javelins shown are alike in the feet that both have wooden handles, but differ In the fact that one has a metal head, while the other is provided with a head triads of fishbone. The latter is a speoial- ly dangerous weantm and likely to do effective work in combat for the moot that, when hurled at an opponent and driven into hls body, it makes a frightful wound. To extract the :wool sharp point from the iseerated flesh to a most difficult eask—quite as difficult, in filet. as it would be to extreat a score or so of big delahooks. The shield shown in the same picture with the javelin is made of inlaid wood and bamboo, and Is of rather elaborate workmanship. Both the Tagalos and the Negritos hold it dexterously, and by their skill in its use ward off many a deadly blow.

The peoulianlooking knife above the battle-ax is rolled a bolo, a mime with which newspaper readers are now quite fanailiar.

P•oullar Pigitt lis Berlin -Royal Police Think Its rietterettoe wawa. Glorify Iterole then. A pecuilar disputa has been going on far several monthe between tee Berlin urinioipel entharitiee and the royal polka with regard to the improvement the former wish to make at the gravei yard where the men who fell In the stir- ring days of 1848 are buried. The graveyard is at present in a depior- able state of neglect, and the corporation intended to Surround it with an Iron railing and provide a proper entranee. The corporation, like every private person, can erect no structure the plans for which eave not fine beau approved by the royal police. The plans for the improvement were sent in beet May, and only in February FORBIDDEN GATE Or BERLIN. of Male year they were returned with the remark that permission to carry them oub as refused because with the build- ing which it is proposed to erect it is in- tended to honor those who fell in March, 1848,whioh constitute0 a political demon- stration to the glorification of revolution. The corporation has now taken the matter before the law, with the object of finding out whether the police have a right to refuse to satiation what Is wished by the representatives of the city. The pollee argued that the style of the proposed gateway and the massive nature of the materials with whioh it is pro- posed to be oonstruoted leave no doubt in their minds that more le intended than an entrance gate. This, of course, the city representatives deny. • The president of the court advised the parties to cotne to some amicable aaree- inent and try to draw out plans satisfac- tory to both. This the city Will hardly be likely to do. With this question is bound up the refusal of the Home Office to •confirm the election at Dr. Kirechner as Chief Burgo- master of Berlin, and the whole matter Is likely to result in a struggle for the few, liberties left to the eity. The sketch herewith, taken from The Tageblatt, shows the' gateway which the Berlin police think will glorify revolution. The Sitialle,t Elephant. 'Berlin has the smallest elephant in the world.

Queenless bees build. drone comb. Strong colonies protect themselves. Dry and warm is the rule for keeping honey. Drones do not usually live so long as workers. Colonies winh young queens are less M- oline(' to build drone comb than those with old queens, queens reared in good, strong queenlesm colonies are just as good as any tiaat are reared naturally. Whenever the bees begin to lead the drones out or pen them off to starve they are of no more good. The only way to keepdrones successive- ly for any length of time is to keep them in queeniess colonies. When the bees are building comb or raising brood, it is essential that they have plenty of water. Every time a bee hatches it leaves a tide lining in the cell. For this reason the cells gradually get smaller. Bees improve the fruit trees.
