 Henry Bloch, Brooklyn butcher, is 6 happy father. He has twelve children four boys and eight girls. The subject of his children makes MT. Bloch one of the most enthusiastic of men. They are his pride and delight. Recently he had tiny photographs of his interesting brood made for the dial of his watch-one child for each hour. This watch he takes with him wherever he goes, and when tired and per plexed in his business he pulls it out, and the faces of the beautiful children allsy all fears and soothe all troubles. MT. and Mrs. Bloch were both born in Germany, but their twelve children were all born in the United States, number of them in Brooklyn. The names of the twelve young Blochs are Cat, Freda, Simon, Rosa, Flora, Celia, Sadie, Yeds, Lula, Aaron, Fannie | and Aschill.
 | Judge Wright of the City court of Balti. more has rendered @ decision which is oi general interest in view of the extension oi rapid. transit lines in our large cities. Th' owner of steer (one of herd) which wal killed by an electric car at Browns Hill or the Rsisterstown road brought suit fol damages against the company. The mo torman testified that the car was going a
 the rate of ten or twelve miles an hour
 and that the headlight on the grade whsr
 the steer was struck would not show hin
 an object on the track in time to avoit
 striking 1t. Judge Wright held that negli | gence on the part of tho company is show | if the cars are run at such @ rate of spec,
 as to render 1t impossible to stop ther
 under such circumstances; in other words the speed of the car must be regulated ae
 cording to the hour of the day or night
 The judge also decided that the mere fas
 that the steer was on the track was not a

 "Now the bright morning star. Days har- comes dancing from the east and leads with The fasSxs.y May. who from her green lap The yellow cowslip and the pale primrose. Hail. bounteous May, that doth inspire nirth and youth and warm desire.

 Thus we salute thee with our early song And welcome thee and wish thee long,"
 Thus sang the poet, not of this May, but of some other May. This May Is about ss cold, clammy, gloomy, watery, msasly and generally disappointing and discouraging as any month could well be. not excepting the month of March. It Is as depressing as Cordsge Is to the dudes. Colds, rheu- matism and pneumonia ride on the passing breeze. It rains 30 much that the long prayed for decision to water the streets of New Haven seems satirical. Rubber boots, shoes and coats are in such demand as to encourage the holders of the Rubber trust stock to believe that their investment is all right. Nobody is saying ''hail, boun- teous Nay" for fear bounteous May would speedily answer the appeal and hail. It has done everything else that it could think of. Neither are the singers saluting May with an early song. They are going around all tied up, with troches in their mouths, trying to keep themselves in condition to sing what they must, and cursing May with early and late curses. And as for wishing such a May as this long, it would not be warranted by even poetic license

How Frauleins Are Wed.

low Frau1elnS are W eOs
German weddings are condu 4ed on
an entirely different plan from Amer
lean ones. In the first place, an engage.
ment is not considered binding until aft
er it has been announced in the papers.
Then the fances devote day to driv-
ing about among their acquaintance.
Cards are sent to all the out of town
friends Of the families. Both fiances
wear rings on their left hands, and after
marriage on the right. The bride pro-
vides all the linen, glass and furniture,
except the appointments for her hus-
bands Office or study.
The wedding ceremony is double af-
fair, the civil contract taking place in
the registry Office early in the morning
and the religious one several hours later
in church. At the early ceremony the
bride wears black, but at the later one
she is adorned with all customary bridal
fnery. There are rarely any brides
maids. The bride and bridegroom enter
the church together, and the guests ali
wear full evening dress. A wedding
breakfast follows the ceremony, but wed
ding cake is an unknown delicacy.-New

BISMARCK'S CONDITION.

His Present Illness Will Leave Per.
! manent Mark Upon Him.
KIssINGEN, Oct. 3.-As is usual in
the cases of aged convalescents, it is
hard to determine from one day to an
other what Prince Bismarck's condition
will be. It is certain that his last ILL.,
ness has left permanent marks upon
him, and it is doubtful if he will ever
receiver his usual health and strength.
His progress towards recovery has been
again retarded by the entire failure of
his appetite. He will now scarcely
: touch food. The reports that he had
suffered an attack of paralysis are
borne out by the fact that his right
hand is apparently completely useless.
He salutes with his left hand
and is even compelled to
sign his name with that hand.
He has aged in looks very much since
iii: sickness, and his appearance is very
fecrepid. It is impossible for him to
enter or leave his carriage without as
sistance, and whenever he goes driving
two men servants help him out and
Into the carriage. The prince complains
that he is afflicted with pain day and
night. Altogether he is much broken.
Count Herbert Bismarck, the princes
son, says his fathers illness was brought
On by his taking half hours bath and
afterwards standing for Is minutes re-
ceiving the deputation from Frankfort
that visited him on Aug. 81.

A Siamese Spectacle.

The king of Siam has a fine idea of
the picturesque. On the night of the
fighting at Bangkok he ordered his chair

royal umbrella made q midnight inspec-

guard and making an imposing show.
As they marched along barefooted- we

nifty OF the scene as its light faded away

fainter as the troops, silent as death.

AT THE BEACH.

The waves cream up on the shingle
In the sheen of the silver moon;
Faint flower scents float and mingle;
The winds in the pine tops Groom.
A girl at her window sitting
Watts from her finger tips
The kiss that faroff lover
Never has had from her lips.
And the dew grows heavy with perfume;
The night owl boots in his tree;
A sail CLEANS white in the darkness
Where the fisherman skins the sea.
Out on the long gray sedges
The beaded drops are pearled;
The robins dream in the hedges,
And angels are watching the world.
