Bismarck's Little Dodges.

An amusing anecdote, of which
Prince Won Bismarck and Lord Odo
Russell are the heroes, Is published
in the Vienna Freie Press. One
day when the English Ambassador
was calling on the Chancellor, the
conversation happened to turn on
the numerous and annoying visits
the latter had to undergo owing to
his high position. Chow do you
manage to get out OF. them p"
asked Lord Odo. "Oh! L have sew
eral little lodges" replied the
Chancellor, with smile. "For in
stance, I have arranged with my
wife to enter the room and request
my presence elsewhere on some
pretext or another, whereupon, of
course, my visitor has to leave"
Hardly were the words out of his
mouth when the Princess Won Bis
marck opened the door and told her
husband not to forget that the hour
for taking his medicine had ar.
rived. The effect of this announce.
ment on the Prince and his visitor
may be imagined, but Lord Odo
Russell took the incident in good
part, and, after exchanging laugh
and q cordial shake hands with the
Chancellor, took the hint and his
departure,

Curious Criminal Law.

In Watson vs. State, p. 15S, Ala

Patti and Her Dog--An Affecting
Separation.

/ That enchanting cantatrice, Car
lotta Patti, with her company, is
stopping at the Monongahela
House. Like all first-class prime
donne, Patti must have something
to love, and in the lady's case 1t is
a dog. The dog referred to is about
nine and three-quarters inches
long, four and seven-eights high,
and can tell fresh beefsteak from a
dip candle with wonderful precis-
ion. 1t is an affectionate animal
and cared for in q manner that
would make Bergh's heart heave
for joy. The dog takes no part in
the performance, to be sure, and we
don't know that Mr.. Grau would
like to have anything to do with an
entertainment that might be
termed "Patti and her dogs,' in
the roaring, screaming, heart
rendipg melo-drama, entitled, say,
s'The Faithful Cur, or q Romans
Heart; Venetian story In three
acts" Mr.. Grau would not do any
thing of the sort. He is not that
8 'rt of a fellow.
When the troupe arrived at the
Monongahela House yesterday,
Patti and her maid and the dog
were the first to alight from the
carriage and enter the hosteirie of
our city. Up the stairs and into
the rooms engaged for the great
singer of America went Patti and
her maid and her dog.
The faithful servitor, who shows
the guests to their rooms, reported
the dog at the hotel office.
mo dogs on our velvet carsets,n
said tie c.elk. "Iell Miss Patti
we have places for dogs, and get
the animal and take it to the dog
kennel"
The faithful son of Africa depart
ed on his errand, but returned emp
ty-handed.
"Boss, dat sing woman say dat
de dog must stay in her room," was
the answer.
at must, must it," and up the
stairs ran one of the head centers
from the Office. Arriving at the
door of Miss PATHS room, Mr.. Grau
was encountered. He bad been
trying to reconcile the dog busi-
ness.
~ will not send Bruno to ken
mel. He has never been treated so
in any hotel in the country"
"But, MAIDEN oiselle, it is positive
ly against the rules to allow any
dogs in our best rooms.n
At this point the French maid
remarked, "Zee poor leetle Bruno"
and she took him in her arms, his
eyes scowling on the clerk and his
tail in gentle repose, while his pug
nose pointed in a dog-gorned way
at the clerk. ~ will take ze Bruno
to my room and zere I will keep
him SO snug as re bug in zee leetle
rug"
This brought forth scene. Patti
burst into tears and retired to a
rocking.chair. The
maid followed her, and sinking on
her knees beside the great cantra.
trice, wept enough aqua pura to
start small rise in the river. Mr..
Grau looked into the room, and
turning pathetically to the clerk,
said:
"Mein Gott! Mein Gott! desc are
an awful dings! If Patti does not
have her dog she will not be able
to sing note tonight. Zis is one
of ze dogW
A compromise was effected by
allowing the maid to take the dog
to her room, and this incident may
account in some manner for some
of the singing done at Library Hall
last night.--.Pittsbur0h Leader.

it was all sensation as produced by
the refrangibility of light-that the
refracted rays striking against the
retina were communicated by the
optic nerve to the brain, and that
the rapidity with which these wave
rays struck the the retina produced
the sensation known to us as red,

Money.
I4d/A

There il dash of deep philoso
ply in the following terse handling
of the attributes of money:
Now, money is said to be the
devil; and If it be, it is beyond al
dispute an extremely pleasant
devil, and OF which men are SO ar
IDENTIFY enamored that they abso
lutely worship it as if it were a
god. No matter of what material
this money may be composed; nc
matter whether it consists of prec.
ious metals. precious stones OF
precious bits of paper-for every
convertible representative ol
money is equally precious--its ac-
cumulation and distribution in
reality constitute the principal bus
mess of mems lives. Some despise
it for time; they never despise it
long; they soon suffer for the in
diligence in that bad passion.
Others will do anything, however
dishonorable, to obtain it. If a
man has money, he's all right; if
he has none he is all wrong. 1t
matters not what hermits and
monks may say, if an honest man
Is poor, his fellow men despise him;
while wealthy villain, in the
worlds estimation, is highly re-
spectacle member of society; and
hence the penalty on poverty is
greater than that which is attached
to any absolute crime. Nor is the
all, as the saying is; nothing like
all. It's astonishing the spirit of
independence the possession of
money inspires, and equally aston
ishiDg the detection and humility
which the non-possession of 1t in
duces. If q man has 40 money his
mind is i'll at ease; he cannot feel
comfortable anyhow-it amounts to
an absolute physical impossibility
for him to hold up his head like a
man who has lots. He can't do it
It's no use to physic him with phi
losOphy. Allthe philosophy in the
world is insufficient to cure his Pc
cunlary disease. He can't under
stand yonr philosophy then, and
he won't understand it. He knows
better. He knows that he has got
no money Ia species of knowledge
which affects alike body and soul.
And yet Notwithstanding money is
SO valuable-so precious that its
absence teens with misery and hu-
initiation, Notwithstanding it is 30
dear, so highly priced when it is
wanted, that we risk even our lives
to obtain it, how thoughtlessly we
waste it How freely we squander
it away when it is gained, as if its
possession inspired the belief that
we should never want another five.
