After struggle Of nearly two weeks
human agencies proved unavailing
and shortly after four o'clock this

infant son Of w. r. Badgett and wife,
aged three months today, ceased to
breathe. Friday following Thanks
giving the child was in excellent
health, apparently, and before day.
light next morning the parents were
awakened by its peculiar cry. Physi-
clans were quickly called, but from
the first the unmistakable symptoms
OF spinal menengitis portended the re-
suit which has come. Only once dur
ing the time has there been sign Of
consciousness, and that was Monday,
when the little one looked up into its
mothers eyes and smiled-leaving an
impress which will last as long as life.
The funeral will take place in the
morning at 10 O'Clock from the home,
Rev. Butler officiating, and the inter-
ment be at the cemetery north Of the
city, where the bereaved family, like

Of love bestowed by friends during the

A Bismn-c,. Duel.

A duel in which Bismarck was once
engaged had very amusing origin. 1t
occurred when he was chief secretary
Of the PrussiGn legation at Frankfort.
He went much into society, and one
Christmas attended big ball. During
the height cf the festivities Bismarck's
attention was directed to an exceedingly
pompous individual who strutted about
the room. This was M. de Clancy, a
noted French duelist. Later on this im-
portant individual took part in dance,
but having omitted to leave his hat at
the proper place had perfoIoe to hold 1t
out almost at arms length while he
danced. The spectacle tickled Bismarck
Immensely, and as the Frenchman came
sailing majestically along Bismarck
stepped forward and dropped a coin In
to tho hat A duel was one of.the next
days events. Though it was with pis-
tolls Bismarck escaped unhlrt, while
his adversary was wounded.

The following story comes from the
Grand Rapids Press aud has to do with
q man and a woman who are employed
In different offices in one of the large
buildings Of that city. Each office has a
telephone, but as il happens one is an
instrument belonging to the Citizens
company, the other a Bell instrument
One day the man had occasion to use
the Citizens line and stepped across the
hall to the lady's Office.
"Have you Citizens phone?' he
asked, and she replied in the Affirmative
"Well, he ventured: I'm citizen.
May use it?''
Why, Of course he might use it, but
inwardly she was inclined TO envy his
ability to stand up and assert his citi-
zenship in this way, for some of her
womanly propensities were of the new
fish" sort. An hour later she balanced
accounts with him.
"Have you a Bell telephcue:" she
asked on stepping into his Office. He did
not try to deny it.
"Well. I'm helle. May use it?'

One of the botanical oddities Of Massa-
chusetts is the existence Of the English
broom, which grows in only two places
lin Sterling. this county, aud In Sa-
lem. 1t is not native plant, and how
IL got across the water is o mystery.
Perhaps some hoinesick colonist caused
it to be sent to him, that the hills about
bis new homo might have the familiar
appearance Of the, old country. It is
beautiful golden yellow in color and
grows in a compact, spirelike plant,
with blossoms close together So thick
arc the stalks that the pastures are like
sheets of gold, and at FIRST sight seem
to be buttercups in masses. Arba Pierce
brought some Of it into the city and
proposes to make display Of it at the
of the horticultural society.
Every one has henrd OF the broom.
English and Scotch literature is full OF
it. 1t was the flower of the royal house
Of Plantsgenet. In fact. the name Plan
taganct is the French for broom plant a
genet. Their ancestor, the Count An
jou, wore string Of broom as badge,
therefore their name. The nnme broom
Is given 1t because Of its ucefulness for
the purpose. Worcester (Mass.) Ga
