ersfip Of Won Beust, believed her
self the protector of Germany and
exercised her power to preserve
intact the Central German States
Prussia offered to the German peo-
pie the choice of assuming their
proper places in Europe, under her
leadership, or remaining a weak
federation Of impuisant territories
under the lead Of Vienna. Aurtria
had armed with, perhaps, the view
Of terrifying Prussia BY her prepa-
rations, and the reluctant arming,
Of Berlin was looked upon at Wen.
IA as the result Of cowardice.
Prussia did not wish for war, but
at last King William determined to
place himself in a position to free
his Kingdom from even the shadow
.of the Austrian policy. Bismarck
determined that Prussia should no
longer be the second power in Ger
many. He used to say that Aus
tria was "one,' so, also, Prussia
was cone" and that with safety
Austria could no longer be allowed
a heremony over Germany. Aus
tria had labored to secure the as
sent Of the Federal Diet to what
ever foreign policy she should
adopt, and the Central States. fiat
tered at being directly engaged III
questions of European policy, ca
gerly followed her lead. The Cen
tral States by this means enjoyed |
a degree Of equality with Prussia.
They felt an especial delight in
causing Prussia to recognize the
power Of the Federation, and the
secnrer they felt of the majority. I
the more ready were they in follow
ing the lead of Austria, to humble
the power of Prussia. The opin-
ions Of Prussia were stigmatized (
as non-German, while Austria was
praised as the exclusive representa-
zion OF Germany and German inter
ests. The Prussian press urged |
that Austria would have no hesita-
ton in destroying the Federation to
carry through her own policy. AL
ready she had invited the govern
nents of the Central States to enter
into warlike alliance with her and
place there troops under Austrian
command, in direct contrayention
IF the articles of federation. On

War Over the Rhine Drawing
EN- out.

We saw a man this morning who
Yesterday went over the Rhine to
study the war feeling. He looks
as though he had been through a
severe campaign himself. He says
he got among parcel of men in a
beer garden, and thinking to draw
them out, he began by expressing
a hope that Prussia would whip. He
succeeded in drawing them out
They proved to be Hungsrians, who
believe every victory for France
will be a victory for Hungary
They BACKED his eye with a "Vive
Lempereor!" L smashed his hat over
his eyes, and kicked him ont into
the street.
Unwilling 10 relinquish his inves-
tigation, although the beginning
was somewhat discOuraging, he
sought another place where French
men are wont to congregate. He
got into a little knot of them and
began to "cuss" Prussia, express
ing a hope that she wonld be whip
ped. He extolled Louis Napoleon
as the greatest military chieftain of
this or any other age, jnst to draw
them on, don't you see? But the
Frenchmen were anti Bonapartists.
They hate Louis Napoleon with a
living hatred, and want to see him
whipped, so they got mad and
blacked his other eye, and smash
ell his nose, and tumbled him out
with nothing left of his hat but the
rim encircling his neck like an Eliz-
abeth ruff. twas ruff. He didn't
try to draw anybody out any more,

MARK TWAIN.

In memoir Of B. Franklin, in
the Galaxy, Mark Twain says;
"What an adroit old adventurer,
the subject Of this memoir was!--
In order 20 get chance to fly his
kite on Sunday he used to hang a
key on the string and LET on to be
fishing for lightning.
"He invented a stove that would
smoke your head off in four hours
by the clock. One can ses the al
most devilish satisfaction he took
in it, by giving it his name.
He was always proud of tell
ing how he entered Philadelphia
for the first time, with nothing in
the world bnt two shillings in his
pocket and four rolls OF bread un-
der his arm. But really, when you
come to examine it critically, it
was nothing. Anybody could have
done it.
Franklin said once, in one OF
his insLi ired flights of malignity--
Early to bed and early to rise,
Makes man healthy and wealthy and
wise
"As if it were any object to a
boy TO he healthy and wealthy and
wise on such terms. The sorrow
that maxim has cost me. through
my parents experimenting on me
with it, tongue cannot tell. The
legitimate result is mypresent state
of general debility, indigence and
mental alteration. My parents
used to have me up before nine
o'clock in the morning, sometimes,
when | was g boy. If they had let
me take my natural rest. where
would have been now? Keeping
store, no doubt and respected by
all"

- Cyprian takes in hand the gay
misses of his time--the third cen
tury--Gs follows:
Are you not afraid that when
you rise from the dead your Maker
will not know you? and that he
will shut you out of heaven with
this strong rebuke; C You are none
of my work, you have not my i'm
mage, you have stained your skin
with falsifying drugs, your hair is
adulterated with dyes, your face is
with falsehood, your fig

Marshal McMahon, who is to
command the armies of France, was
born in Sully, in July, 1903. He
derives his descent from an Irish
family, who risked and lost all for
the last Of the Stuart kings. The
McMahons, carrying their national
traditions, ancestral pride and his
torical name to France, mingled
their blood in marriage with the old
nobility of their adopted country.
This member Of the family entered
the military service of France in
1926, at the military school of St.
Cyr, was sent to the Algerian wars
in 1880; while acting as the aid-de-
camp to General Achard, took part
in the EXPEDITION at Antwerp in
1882 attained to the rank Of cap
tain in 1888 and, after holding the
post of aid-de camp to several Al
rican generals, and taking part in
the assault Of Constantine, was
nominated major of Foot Ches-
seurs in lS4Q, Lieutenant Colonel
of the Foreign Legation in 1912,
Colonel of the Forty first of the
line in 1S45, and General Of Brig
ade in 1S49. When, in 1S45, Gen.
Canrobert left the Crimea, Gen. Nc
Mahon, then in France, was select
ed by the Emperor to succeed him
in command of division; and
when the chiefs Of the allied armies
resolved on assaulting Sebastapol,
Sept s, they assigned to General
Mcmahon the perilous post Of car
rying the works Of the Malakof,
For his brilliant success on this oc
casion he received the Cross Of the
Legion of Honor; and in 1858 was
nominated Knight Grand Cross
Of the Bath, General Mcmahon,
who took a conspicuous part in the
italian c1mpaign of 1859, received

THE WAR OF 1915.
At the Congress of Vienna, in
1914, the Emperor of Russia de-
mand that the whole of the Grand
Dhchy of Warsaw should be ceded
10 Russia as an indemnity for the
losses she bad sustained and the
heavy sacrifices she had made dur t
ng the war. Prussia warmly sup I
ported the claim of her late ally, ]
rot because she was deeply indebt- {
ID to Russia for her deliyerance I
rom the yoke of Napoleon, but a
because she had projects of her '
,wn to lay before the other powers t
n which she would require the
