Durant, a promoter and a man with the wherewithal, have its eastern terminal? at Callaway? Broken Bow? Broken Bow business men are organ izing and will go aftor an unlimited n mountof money if they are assured the promoter will end his road from Try- on at Broken Bow. They have hold meetings and made plans and talked over the matter with the railroad man. While Mr. Durant has not committed himsolf on tho subject it looks liko he favored Brokcu Bow. Probably voicing tho sentiment of the majority of the Callaway people John Moran, president of the commercial club of that town, expressed not too enthusiastic an opinion and said to a Kearney man that the Callaway people would be slow toT'subscrlbo for this road. The attitude, it is assumed by those jnterosted in building the road to Broken Bow, will hurt Callaway 'g chances and increaso the probability of the road terminating at Broken Bow. Kearney Hub.

'They rojolco ot tho death of their inlstrcfis!' " The Bank Beat tha Prince. Tho Gentlewoman of London rocalhi the following story of tho prlnco re gent and Coutts' bank: "When George IV. was a regent ho hud a grudge against Couttn and determined to play (i trick on tho authorities. In thoso days oven tho great bnnka kept very small reserves of cash, and tho playful prince thought out n plan to closo Coutts'. So he sent his equerry round from Carlton IIouho with a check for 100,000, fondly hoping that the bank Would not be ablo to pay over the counter. Tho prince's trick, howover, failed of success, as tho wary old part nor of the Strand bank proved equal to tho occasion. He paid nt onco to tho equerry, 'How will his roynl high ness tako the amount, In goldornoten?' The equerry hesitated and' then said ho had hotter go back to Carlton House to inquire. So ho dopartcd, nnd Coutts' had timo to ond to tho Bank of Eng land nnd get tho casli required, but it wah not needed, no tho prlnco regent, seeing that Cootrs' had got tho best of lilm, did not return tho check in question."

Ah Eng lish zoologist kept a man going up and down tho const, of Labrador for weeks purposely, to got a robin sulpo'H egg, but it wiih In vain.
