The. WINDMILL-A SCATHING I

REBUKE OF THE RADICAL Cor
GREss.-Ex-Goyernor Fairfield, o
Michigan, in a campaign speecl
delivered at Xenia, Ohio, relates
the following beautiful Incident Q
Prussian history:
| remember seeing a windmill
that seemed beautiful. It had it
history. When Friedrich the Grea
was Emperor OF Prussia he wen
out a little way from Berlin ana
built him q palace. at Sans. Souci
He and the Empress were seated
one Sabbath afternoon in then
beautiful grounds, aud the En-
press said. 81 don't like that old
windmill over there; l wish yor
would buy the grounds and tea
lit away, as it mars the beauty O
our grounds, being right along
side, and so near them here" .'Pl
dol it to morrow" said he. So .oi
the morrow he went to the miller
and told him he wished to bus
his little homestead. s'I don't
wish to seil.n said the miller
But" said the Emperor, 81 mas
have it. 1 wish to extend and
beautify my grounds, and youl
windmill is an eysore to the En-
press;a but, said he, "my grand
father is buried FOUNDER, ana my
father is buried there, and this
has been the home OF my ances
tors for generations; I want to
live aud die here, and cannot
sell it, The Emperor getting
out OF patience, said he would
order his men to tear the mill
down and take pos session of the
grounds. Said the miller, ''May
it please your Majesty. there are
laws in Prussia, and | can sue
you." 81 don't care" said the
Emperor, and went and tore down
the mill. The miller sued him,
aud the courts decided against
his Majesty, and declared that he
should rebuild the mill and pay
to the last farthing all the miller
had lost,
The Emperor bowed his head.
went and rebuilt the mill, and
paid all damages. After awhile
Friedrich the Great was in his
grave, and the old miller was
gone; but by and by another mil.
ler,was there, and another EN-
peror Was on the throne. The
miller wrote to his reigning Mai
esty that so many years ago his
grandfather had refused to sell his
windmill and homestead to him,
but said he, II am very poor and
need the money, and will sell, and
hope the price may be such ls to
please your Majesty / must have
$4,000" The Emperor, with his
own hand, wrote a reply. He
wrote simply this: ''You say you
are poor. | am sorry for it. You
are willing to sell your Windmill
for $4,000. The windmill cannot
be sold. 1t belongs to Prussian
history. Enclosed find my check
for $4,000. Yours respectfully
And the name and the great seal
of the Emperor was affixed. Il

afternoon, such as this has been,

The readiness with which members OF the different
Chinese factions bah out their associates proves
clusvely that the outraaes penetrated are the work
OF premedtatioh and design. and IN accordance with
the civilization. Last evening before the unfort,l-
nate victims wounds had been dressed, the pres-
dent OF the Sam Yup Company headed by Mr.. Howe
made his appearance In the police office and offered
bonds, which had already been proposed before a
Justice OF $1,000 each for the release OF All zee and
An Lum, the two alleged assassins. Considering
that the stabbirg took place at quarter TO eight
O'Clock and that the bonds had been obtained ana
IN the police Office at about haf-past eight O'Clock,

the assistance OF q brace OF would-be murderers ls
laudable, no doubt. II lett the impression on the
minds OF many, however, that the act was premedi-
tated and conc0ced, and that in anticipation OF the
arrest OF the men everything had been prepared TO
secure their release
Mr.. Howe presented the bonds to Captain Dong.

Captain, however, nrmly refused on the ground That
