testimony" given " yesterday by Ills son,
A, E. Kern,and his daughter, Mrs. Ark
wel P. DuMond. that he took advantage
pof the falling mind of the mother of
his children, to. induce herito-slgh the
deed to.slx'lots on the peninsula, mak

Kern declared - his wife1 knew . Just
what, she was doing ,;.last ; September
when she' signed . the. depd. "to John B,
Butenschoen, who. is a "cpdefndant.
Similar testimony was given by, Buten
schoen, In direct conflict -with the
statements of A. E. Kern and his sister,
as well (is anurse for aged Mrs. Hen
rietta Kern and. several., neighbors, .who,
say she was entirely Incompetent to
transact; business. i
young Kern,, wno was appointed guar
dian for his mother last January, said
he had asked his mother about the time
of the sale whether she woaULrather
have J1600 or 13000. She said sheydid
not. know, as she had. forgotten which
wus .the most. . v
Mrs; DuMond, daughter of Kern, said
he held a 3500 interest in the lots be
cause of her work in nursing asd-taklna-
care of her mother. She said her another
had promised her the money when the
land -was-xold. onh---etflr .-Bnlr-tv
Kern said he had kept an account of
his expenditures for medicine end other
expenses for his wife, and he considers
she owes" him about $1000. '
Son and daughter want the court to
compel their father and Butenschoen to
turn, the land oven for the benefit of
heir mother's estate. The value of the
lots, lsfs been variously' estimated at
$200 to $500 each. .They were sold to

. CHANGING NOTES OF BIRDS
Their Varying Calls In Sunshine and
' in Storm.
One of the most-tnterestlng.featui'es'io.res, In thepJ. Sharp D. L. C., and 50
in tne stuay or oira uie.is to note
their varying calls in'the changing blr
cumstances! of' sttnshlne and storm.-;
The frequent snowfalls of the .recent
winter have of ten been heralded by the
mournful "cluck, cluck of the black
birds as they flocked", found the doors
looking for the crumbs that custom had
led them to expect. The mavis is mostly
mute during a storm, and tells his tale
of woe more by his ruffled feathers and
drooping wing than by his voice.' His
note, however,: Is the first to welcome
a change to warmer weatheu, -
The stormcock, by which Is meant the
blue felt or fieldfare, does not frequent
the habitation of man, but there, is no
more certain sign of the approach of se
vere weather than a flock ol-these birds
flying, southward. , Their '"-note Is ,n
ominous "chuck, chuck," and but , for
that they would often pass .unnoticed
overhead. . .
"The- skylark-also passei south titter
ing a timid, twittering oMe, which, will
la'te'r give'place ta a gay burst of song.
The starlines flock greedily to,, what
ever food Is to be. found, be it In field
or homestead,, The first blink of warm
sunshine, however, sees thenv perched on
the eaves vibrating their wings in a
manner no other bird does and imitating
with an air of intense satisfaction the
call notes of a host of other birds. .

Mark- Twaln'a Name. -,
. From the New York Independent.
The' truth about his selection of the
name Mark Twain4 has, I think, ap
peared in print before, but: nine out of
every ten times it is stated falsely,
and baa so beert published since li1s
death. He did not adopt the pen name

the New Orleans Picayune, .still one of
the best papers In th south. Ho u"d t
sign his articles Mark Twain, He died in

think 1 have done wrong, for J seern to
have marie his nam somewhat general
