The Bank Beat the Prince.

The Gentlewoman of London recalls
the following story Of the prince re-
gent and Coutts' bank: when George
Nv. was regent he had a grudge
against Coutts and determined to play
q trick on the authorities. In those
days even the great banks kept very
email reserves of cash, and the playful
prince thought out plan to close
Coutts'. So he sent his equerry round
from Carlton House with check for
100000, fondiy hoping that the bank
would not be able to pay over the
counter. The princes trick, however,
failed Of success. as the wary old part
ner of the Strand bank proved equal
to the occasion. he said at once to
the equerry, How will his royal high
ness take the amount. In gold or notes ?
The equerry hesitated and then said
he had better go back to Carlton House
to inquire. So he departed, and Coutts'
had time to send to the Bank of Eng
land and get the cash required, but II
was not needed. as the prince regent.

Eaa. That can,t 3. Found.

The eggs of some common birds of
the present day have never been
found. There is the robin snipe: its
eggs have never been seen. An Eng
lish zoologist kept man going up and
down the coast Of Labrador for weeks
purposely to get robin snipe's egg
but it was in vain. The bird is known
by thousands Of people, but 1t breeds
so far north and SO remote from any
civilization that no scientific observer
can ever get to its nest ere the young
are Matched and have taken to wing.
The frigate bird that is SO commonly
seen at sea on the Pacific and off the
West Indies is such @ solitary bird
and is so seldom seen in its nest dur.
ing the hours Of daylight that its egg
is rare. 1t seems. strange, but the
eggs of so well known a bird as the
sandpiper have never been found and
are almost priceless.-London Globe.

An Enormous Loss

ne
Those who have not figured It cut
have little connection Of the enor-
o loss sustained by the farmers
individually, by the South generally,
and the country on account of the
drop in the price of cotton as com
pared wit blast year. The Scottish
Chief of Maxton in its issue of last
week presents a few figures that are
eye-openers. On the same date last
year the price of cotton was 1850.
The price on the day under considera-
tiCn was ST a difference of 5.75.
cents the pound or $28.75 per bale.
The loss on the price of seed is esti-
mated at SIS a bale, making the total
loss on a bale of cotton as compared
with last year $3.50. This says the
Chief would mean a less of $780, 900
on the 10000 bales handled on the
Maxton market; a loss of $2,077, 900 on
the $4,000 bales raised in Robson
county, and a loss Of 1880, 900 on
the 100000 bales raised in the State.
Think CT the farmers of one coun-
ty losing over two million in one
season by depreciation in the price
of cotton and a loss OF. $23, 200, 900 in
the State; then think of the loss sus-
tanned on the cotton crop of the south!
Then remember, too, that last year
the price vas not reasonable high
but was really a fair price. It's
something serious and something to
ponder.

Speak Ont Yonr Choice.

Several prominent men are now be.
ing mentioned for the Democratic
nomination for the presidency, and
now rs the time when people are ex-
pressing their preference for some
one or other OF the many prospect
i've Democratic candidates for the
highest Office in the world. This is
a prerogatiVe which every Democrat
may exercise and ne one has the
right, legal or moral. to say him nay.
This liberty Of thought, speech and
action is a fundamental principle of
our government and national life.
And in so far as any man shrinks
from making known his preference
out of fear of some other man he is
untrue to that principle and cannot
but suffer in self-respect. And n
man who may use his official or 9th
er position to attempt the intimida-
ton of one who differs from him as
to choice, of candidate also violates
that principle and is no true Amer
lean. So let it be known which of
the gentlemen being discussed as the
prospective leaders of the Democracy
is your choice. Which of them, Will
son, Clark, Harmon, Underwood or
others, do you think is best ~calculat-
ed to lead the party to victory next
year and serve the people best when
he is elected. The rank and file of
the party should speak out on the
subject so as the leaders will know
