The Boys Put mp q Sob.

A Philadelphia grocer advertised to
give every thirteenth customer the amount
Of his purchase free. The plan seemed
4 success at first, and business thrived,
but one day the boys put up a job
un him. Twelve of them walked into the
store, and each made trifling purchase
the whole hill for the dozen was less than
81. Then the thirteenth man walked in
and ordered barrel of sugar, ten pounds
of tea, ten pounds of coffee and box of ci-
gars. The grocer faced the music like a
man, but at once took down his sign and
put up another, saying that the offer had
been withdrawn. He now thinks thirteen
an unluckly number.

Information has reached Baltimore that
DIR. Thomas II. Maddox, Marylander, but
Tor slxty-nine years u resident of Rapides,
Louisiana, died there on Tuesday last short
ly after celebrating his 95;h birthday. DIR.
Maddox besides being one of the most dis
tinguished citizens of his adopted State, is
celebrated as having been for some time
the only survivor of q startling dueling
episode in 1885, celebrated as the sand bar
duel, that took place opposite Natchez
and attracted widespread attention.
DR.. Maddox and brother of Gov. J
Madison Wells We're the principals in the
duel, and Col. Blanchard, father of the
present Congressman Blanchard, Colonel
Grain, Major Wright, General Curry, and
James Bowie, of Maryland, were the Sec
onds. The original difficulty was settled
on the ground, but the seconds had a ter
rible quarrel, in which James Bowie, the
inventor Of the "BOwie" knife was shot
down, and another man was killed by Col
Grain. While Bowie was down Major
Wright rushed at him with O sword-cane.
and three others joining him, the wounded
man was carved to pieces with his own
knife. DIR. Maddox spent some time in
st. Mary's county last summer visiting
Hon. Benjamin G. Harris and others
James Bowie was of the old Maryland
family of that name, and he went to the
then far Southwest with his brother Allen
in the old border days.-ISuR.

Thoughts Or Death.
BY NJ. W. c.

We live in world of change and decay,
of life and death; in a world of pleasure
and pain, Of hope and disappointment. AT
times tie way for us 10 go is easy, and
even flowers are blooming here and there
along our path that we may stoop and gath
err at times the course is long and dark,
and every thing we touch is only thorn to
bruise and wound. We think we should
be happier far if death were not, and
life and health Were always in our
honlss. However this might be, we know
that while every setting sun marks the birth
of thousands of our race, ii at the same time
calls away thousands Of Others who have
lived their destined age. Day by day and
year by year We read of the suffering and
death Of men and women, and pass them by
with only one bliefthought They have be-
come familiar tales Of dying race that
struggles on against fces and trials of eve
~ kind; race that foldly clings 10 life,
and shrinks from entering the vast I'M
known. We are ready too to help and
cheer those bereaved ones whom we know,
and In offer them the consolation of our
healt TO bid them cease from murmuring,
and bear all things well. When the bur
den 10 be borne is placed upon our shout
dcrs, and we are called upon to ,uffer in a
sterner way, tAeR il is We shrink back and
WAIVER. Well indeed often apply to Us the
words Of Eliphaz 10 Job:
Thy words have upholden him that was
falling.
And thou hast confirmed the feeble
knees.
But now it Is come unto thee and thou
faintcSa
Ii touched thee. and thou art trouslod."
IL IS hard indeed ID bear the loss oflovci
ones, % realize that those who have been
cur comfort and our hope have passed for
ever beyond the vale, and that the same
unwelcome journey lies, alas before rs
toa We look upon the busy thrung Of hu-
man life that surgcs like 9 mighty stream
into the bosom Of that hoan3lSss sea that
men have called eternity, and which no
