Oh for a word from Bismarck.


The Pope died last Thursday. He
was born May II, 1892. He was
made Pope in 1876.
All the powers have accepted Aus
tIia' invitation to hold a conference,
except Russia, whose adhesion may
be hourly expected. The conference
assemblies almost Immediately.
The popular feeling in Eng land is
intensly hostile to Russia. The win
dows of Mr.. Gladstou's town house
and of the DAILY .Neus office we're
broken by excited crowds.
The Pope's death is attributed b.
some to the closing Of the wound in his
leg, which made the huDors amount in-
to the lungs and brain. Other accounts
say the cause of death was the mount
ing of water to the heart
A horrible story comes from China,
which reports the death of two thou
sand persons by the burning of an
asylum in the town of Tien-Tsin.
Tien-Tsin is large and important
city in the province of Chih-le, about
thirty-four miles from the mouth of
the Peisho. The streets are unpaved.
and the houses, principally built of
mud and dried brick. present a mean
appearance: although in the central
part of the town there are well-built
houses.
While the Grand Duke Nicholas
was reviewing the prisoners after the
taking of Plevna his eye caught the
magnificent Arab horse of Turkish
officer. He afterward sent one of
his Adjutants to the latter to ask if
he would sell it, orders having been
given that the captured officers should
retain their horses. The replied that
it was no longer in his possession,
for Immediately after the animal had
been remarked by the Grand Duke
Roumanian officer had come to him
and ordered him to give it up. He
had refused and demanded the writ
ten command of the Prince. The
officer then drew his revolver, and,
threatening to shoot him, forced him
to comply with his demand. Fortu-
nately for the Turkish officer, the
Roumanian had squint, and by
means of this physical popularity
was soon discovered, and found to be
none other than a staff officer attach
ed to General Skobeleff. He had
forthwith to surrender his ill-gotten
spoil, was severely reproved, and has
been obliged to leave headquarters
owing to the odium into which he has
fallen.
