Editorial Buzzljigs, 



Each Day the world is born anew 



For him who takes it rightly ; 

 Not fresher that which Adam knew, 

 Not sweeter that whose moonlit dew 

 Entranced Arcadia nightly. 



Earle Clickinger, the honey- 

 dealer of Columbus, 0., is dead. 



A Bill protecting foreign exhibitors 

 of patented articles from all possible 

 prosecution for infringement has been 

 passed by the Senate, and is pending, 

 and reported sure to pass, in the House. 

 The bill reads as follows : 



"That no citizen of any country shall 

 be held liable for the infringement of 

 any patent granted by the United States, 

 or any trade-mark registered in the 

 United States where the act complained 

 of is performed in connection with the 

 exhibition of any article or thing at the 

 World's Columbian Exposition at Chi- 

 cago." 



Father I^angfstroth is again 

 heard from through his daughter, Mrs. 

 Anna L. Cowan. We regret to announce 

 that he has had a severe attack of La 

 Grippe, which, for a time, threatened to 

 become fatal. The careful nursing of 

 his affectionate daughter has, in a meas- 

 ure, restored his wasted vitality, and he 

 is now able to be about again. Mrs. 

 Cowan writes us as follows : 



My father-ts very feeble, and suffers 

 much. In November last he had a 

 severe attack of La Grippe, which set- 

 tled on his kidneys and bladder, and for 

 a time threatened his life. He was a 

 long time in recovering sufficient strength 

 tc enable him to get about the house 

 again, and our physician tells us that at 

 his age, and enfeebled condition, we 

 cannot hope that he will ever be free 

 from those disorders. 



He desires to be affectionately remem- 

 bered to you and to yours. We regret 

 to know through the bee-papers that 

 you have also been ill, and trust you will 

 soon be restored to complete health. 

 Anna L. Cowan. 



"We Understand that the Com- 

 mittee appointed by the North American 

 Bee-Keepers' Association at Albany, 

 consisting of Dr. A. B. Mason, P. H. 

 Elwood and J. M. Hambaugh, to secure 

 space at the World's Fair for the api- 

 arian exhibit, are not idle by any means, 

 but are pushing matters. 



We have, by request, interviewed the 

 State Commissioners several times, and 

 will appear before the State Board of 

 Agriculture at its next meeting in April, 

 to try to get an appropriation for the 

 money necessary to gather a creditable 

 State exhibit. 



We have also been notified to attend a 

 conference with Dr. Mason and the Chief 

 of the Agricultural Department of fhe 

 National Commission on the 16th inst. 



As soon as anything is definitely set- 

 tled, we will report it in the Bee Jour- 

 nal. Though not a member of the 

 committee, we know of what is beinff 

 done, as we are assisting the committee 

 by every means in our power. At pres- 

 ent the committee can only "report 

 progress," and promise details later.
