SINGULAR FREAK In NATURE-Our
friend Mr. Fl. Mccormack, who resides near
Darkesville, Informs us that he found an egg
in his chicken coop that was apparently fresh
laid, that had in the small end of it.a per,
tectly formed chicken, covered with skin but
without shell. The other part of the egg,
yolk and white was perfectly fresh and good
and covered as usual with shell, thus proving
that the egg had been newly laid This is
certainly surprising freak in nature aud goes
to show that hendom is progressin. when it
lays eggs perfectly fresh in one end with
little chick fully developed in the other.

SUDDEN. AMI. sAp.-Cn Thursday night,
another was added to the number Of sudden
and sad deaths that have taken place in this
town during the past year. When it was sn>
nounced on Friday morning that Mrs. Helen
Bentley, wife of Mr.. Edgar L. Bentley, was
dead, thrill of surprise and sorrow shocked
every heart For day or two previous Mrs.
B had suffered much loss of rest occasioned
by a telon on one of her fingers. At abont Z
o'clock Thursday evening she retired to her
chamber, telling her little children not to dis
turb her as she wanted sleep At 10 o'clock
her husband went to her room, and found her
lying Oh her side breathing heavily, but at.
t.ibuting it to sound slumber, he quietly re-
tired without arousing her A few hours
later. he awoke. aud finding the lamp that he
had left lighted still burning. he called to his
wife. and receiving no reply, took her by the
hand. only to find it olammy and cold in death.
DR.. A. r. Mott was at once summoned. and
his decision was that DEATH which had taken
place at least two hours previous, was the re.
suit of apoplexy.-LeesIurg Mirror 70
