CHARLOTTE, N. c., June 15.-Carl,
the five-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. w. kiser died late last night at the
home of his parents as the result, It
is claimed, of druggists mistake The
little fclloIy- was slightly i'll and his
physician prescrfbed for him, the pre-
ecription containing three ingredients
BY mistake the druggist substituted
carbolic acid for one of the ingredients
with the result that death followed in
n short while after the administration
OF the medicine. 1t Is likely that no ar
rests will be made, though civil actor
may cnsue.

Beginning probably the first of next week the
hotel management will put up number or cups
to be played for during the month. In addition to
the usual tournaments there will be clock golf
matches for women and childrens tournaments
and several mixed foursomes will probably be ar
ranged.
The pretty little clubhouse situated on knoll
overlooking the lake is the centre Of gayety on
tournament days when even the guests who have
succumbed to golf are attracted to the links
by the enthusiasm OF their friends. After the
games tea is served at the club.

Twenty-seven Step-ChiIdren.

Although only % years old, Mrs. r.
Kimbel, OF Dubuque, Iowa, who until q
few days ago was Miss Elizabeth Bis.
chofi, has a family Of 27 children and AZ
grandchildren. She acquired this fam
lily by her marriage to Capt. R. Kimbel,
at Keller, Wis. The young bride, who
has been famed for her beauty among
upper Mississippi river men, has turned
away many young weoers who came
from far aud near, after hearing tales OF
her beauty, to tell her of their love and
to offer heart and hand.
While the young river men could not
win the belle of the fishing fleet, Captain
Kimbel, though handicapped by nearly
20 wears, led her TO the alter. He had
three wives before he won Miss Bischof,
so it seems be knew how to WOO and win.
His family accumulated as he married
widows with children until the latter
numbered 81.
