The marriage mania is continuing its raw
ages among the French actresses. The last vic
tim is Mile. Duverger. whose beauty snd
whose diamonds used to be the talk OF Paris
years ago. Nile. Duverger an innovator in
her line. 1t was she who set the fashion of play
sng the roles of milk-msids and sheperdesses with
diamonds IN her ears and pearls around her neck.
The first example of this fashion cited is roe of n
iclfere created by Mile. Duverger in Lat Anesse,
in lS47 when she wore necklace worth so 000f.
subsequently she played the ragged heroines of
Gaity melodramas with 200,c o0f: worth OF dia
monds on her person. After having been priR-
dc Ia Tdmpe, Mile. Duverger became princess
de Ia main gduche, and for many years the
old Prince Demidoff acted as Tepoussotr

gregatsd. Old Denidoff, 1t may be remembered,
served Eugene Size the model OF the brutal
Lugarto. in his novel of Hdthttde. Mile. Duverger

SHREVEPORT, La, September 30.-In an
encounter few nights ago with an adversary. a
young man OF this city received ball in his
mouth from deringer from the fellow he had
down. Having good set of teeth he caught 1t be-

low. The Police Court will settle the difficulty

BALLAD OF A BABY
A. D. 1907.

1t was all in a hurry scurry,
Duke and Duchess in a furry,
For at last, with hope forlorn,
They had hed-O, tale of pity
From the sacked and burning city,
With their little babe new born.
When Duke Friedrich, sore defeated,
With his flying troops retrested
Through the Neckar's winding vale,
And the foe pursued, for slaughter
Up from Friedrich's baby daughter
Rosa q faint and moaning wall.
Now what ails the little beinge"
Goth the fire, as they were fleeing
Fleeing wildly, holly pressed:
And the mother answered, signing,
"Ah, the little thing is crying,
For she needs her mothers breast"
".
Down the Duke from the saddle vaulted,
Shouting, LET the troops be halted
Let the furies do their worst
Let the country folk betray us
Let the conquerors find and Stay US
But the baby shall be nursed!"
So with q shady hollow,
Though the foe was soon TO follow.
And TO tarry was to die,
Horse and rider stopped 10 water,
While the little ducal daushter
Drank the milky fountain dry.
vi.
The pursuers would have chuckled.
Had they seen the baby sucked,
But they rode another way.
And they never set their clutches
On The happy Duke and Duchess,
For the baby saved the day.
VII.
Then the fugitiyes, though routed,
pair No aau nd frOr al oN f1rn cH ta6
And they vowed, amid their Joy,
That the babe, for this days merit,
Should the ducai crown inherit
Just as If she were boy.
VIII.
When at last the child so tender,
Who had been the lands defender,
Was q peerless woman grown
Not a f1ounced and signing charmer,
But an Amazon in armor.
She was Duchess on the throne.

returned to claim his wife, now sixty-four years
old Grub anted The intrusion, and the first
husband was disposed of by being clapped i'll the

At a meeting of the bar of this city, held

was passed:
The members of this bar are convened again in
sad assemblage. Mr.. George r. Phelan, one OF its
members, died on the 9th of September 1852 at
the early age of thirty-five. He was q victim TO
the slow destroyer, consumption, and has there
fore for several years not been actively engaged in
the business OF the profession. Gradually his life
has faded out The vigorous, athletic form, the
brilliant talents the professional enthusiasm the
chivalrous personal character which were recog-
nized as the characteristics of his young manhood
have found their early end, and his name passes
from our roll to the long catalogue of the departed
He was capable of high attachments, and worthy
OF high position at the bar and in the public
affairs. He was ambitious. energetic and
persevering. But the high promise of his life
has failed OF fufllment under an memorable fate.
We mourn him as lost ompanion because of
what he was. We remember his feryid, generous
nature, his ue literary and professional acquire
ments, the classic style of his composition his i'm
FASHIONED oratory, his zeal and his honorable
bearing. Thus remembering, we mourn him too
for what he might have become in the maturity of
his powers. as a lawye r. citizen, and man. 1t
is, therefore, by this meeting of the bar.
Resolred, hat the courts be requested to cntsr
this action upon their minutes, and that copy
be sent to his bereaved family as a token of our
sympathy with them, and of our appreciation OF
him whose place in their midst is made vacant.
