on the part Of the American branch Of
the Coudert family, founded here by
Charles Coudert, q Bonapartist refugee
from France, against a foreign branch of

Duke of Choiseul, husband of Claire
Coudert, is responsible for q will contest
which will bring together q large number
Of well known lawyers when 1t is heard
in the surrosate's court December IL.
The estate over which the family has
come to a bitter disagreement is in this
dty, but its ownership has been trans
ferred in a will just filed to the Duke OF
Choiseul It's amount is said not to be
large, but the point at issue is that the
property in question, largely personal,
passes out Of the possession Of the Cou-
dert family by the terms of the will, and
the American members of the family feel
that they are entitled to hold and pre-
serve 1t for themselves.
They give consideration to the fact that
the unmarried sister who made the will
was turning over property that came to
ner, in large part, from her father. The
other sister. instead of a person in the
direct line Of descent, and the fear Is
expressed that the duke will be enabled,
under the terms of the will. to pass highly
valued family heirlooms entirely outside
Of the family. A lawyer Representing one
Of the contestants said that If the prop

Choiseul instead Of to her husband, the
duke, there would have been little II any
objection on the part OF Grace Couderts

The Butterfly,s Ear.

Some time ago botanist Of the
first rank discovered or believed that
he. had discovered. for the question
has not been finally settled. that some
plants possess the sense of vision.
Now the announcement is made that .
naturalist has discovered the ear of
the butterfly. The ear is not consti-
tuted as with animals: it has no dis
tinct form and is differently situated.
The butterfly's ear, we learn from
French contemporary, is to be
found on the abdomen. The question
arises whether this rudimentary ear
hears the same sounds as we do. Pos
sibly not, for the eye of insects and
birds has a much more delicate and
acute sense than that of other ami
mails.

Good Conversation.

Good talk has SO much shorthand
that it cannot be reported-the inf1ec-
ton, the change of voice, the shrug,
cannot be caught on paper. The best
of it is when the subject Unexpectedly
goes cross-lots, by flash of shortcut,
to conclusion so suddenly revealed
that it has the effect of wit. It needs
the highest culture and the finest
breeding to prevent the conversation
from. running into more persiflage on
the one bandits common fate-or
monologue on the other. Our con-
versation is largely chaff.-Charles
