Bismarck and the Actress.

Some years ago curious correspond
ence between Count Bismarck and the
members Of q conservative society in
Pomerania was published by the Pos
ssche Zeitung. This society asked the
count for an explanation of his conduct,
first, in abandoning the conservative
party; second, in allowing himself to
be photographed along with Mile. Luc-
ca, and third, in having ceased to 90 to
church The count at once gave
categorical reply with many thanks
for the frankness with which his "dear
friends" had addressed him. In regard
to the first point Count Bismarck says
that people at distance can not Judge
OF the circumstances which must neces-
sarily influence the political conduct of
a statesman, that he must act for the
good Of the country whose destinies
have been placed in his hands, and that
II his correspondents knew how difficult
it is TO adopt the right course, and how
heavy a burden rests on his shoulders,
they would acquit him of willful deser-
ton of his party. In explanation of the
second point the count reminds his cor
respondents of the lengthy negotiations
which led TO the convention Of Gastein,
SAT one time" he says, "matters came
TO deadlock, and life become so insult
ferably tedious that | did not know
how TO kill time. went for walk,
met Mile. Lucca, whom / knew, and
suggested TO her that she should relieve
the tediousness of our existence by
giving a concert. Perhaps | will, she
answered, but only on one condi-
ton And what may that be?' That
your excellency will allow yourself to
be photographed along with me- With
pleasure answered, and this was the
origin Of the picture. now leave it to
you TO Judge whether you should cast q
stone at me on this account" AS foi
the counts non-appearance at church,
he explains that his doctor forbids him
to attend divine service, as he has be-
come so exhausted through working
night after night that he is not equal TO
the effort. He adds that he feels this
to be great priyation, and often prays
in his own room for guidance as to
what is best for the fatherland.

Danger Of lightning From Telephone
Qonnections.

OOuu0UIlOuS,
The Cantonal Government of Zurich,
having been applied to by q telephone
company for permission TO fix the sup
ports of insulators on the tops of GER
tain public buildings. applied to Prot
Kleiner for an opinion. The following
is summary of the chief points in his
report:
l. The danger Of lightning in houses
over which telephone wires are
stretched is not increased, but lessened,
II the total conductivity of wire is APP
proximatcly equal to that of light
ming conductor. This condition is not
always fulfilled under existing arrange
ments. 1t may be insured by very SIM
pie arrangements, such rs the intro
duction Of special wire for the con-
duction of lightning wherever the num-
Der of wires OF two millimeters In thick
ness running in the same direction Is
less than sixty. This should be insisted
upon In all cases. Single connections
running along tho houses should DO
stronger than nj present--at least us
strong as telegraph wires.
q. AS tho properties Of telephone
RiCxus Tor attracting and conducting
iightning extend over far wider tracts
.nan those OF q lightning rod, o strict
.egulatlon OF their make and condition
Is necessary.
The use OF telephones should DO sus-
pended during thunderstorms. -Neac

Miss Gladdis Homan committed sui
eide at Napoleon, H., because she could
not lie abed mornings as long as she
wished. She was visiting her brothers
house, and seldom made her appear
ance until after breakfast had been
eaten by the rest of 1.-THE fam lily. Her
brother demonstrated, and informed
her that she must get up before the
breakfast hour. She got exceedingly
wroth about the order, and after pout-
ing all day returned to her fathers
house. That night when she retired
she ordered her sister out Of the room,
saying she would show them how long
she could lie in bed. She locked the
door, took the poison, and was found in
the morning in the last struggles of
death.

In the French chamber of deputies
recently NJ. Laroche Joubert, a Bona
partist, gravely proposed the sale Of
life titles at the rate of 10000 francs a
year for duke, 5000 francs for marquis,
1000 francs for count, 5000 francs for
baron, and 1000 francs for the particle
de. He calculated the receipts at 500
100000, and considered this better than
the present system of usurping titles,
under which it was noteasy to ascertain
the spurious from the genuine. The
proposal was referred in the ordinary
course.

A certain story reminds the Port

an eminent dominic of Brooklyn, L. l.,
whom the writer once interviewed while
on paper in that city, We walked
into the parlor, and presently the min
lister entered. "Ah,' said he, "you
have come for religious consolation.
Let us pray ooh, no." we said, "it
is for the purpose of interviewing YOU

Women.

1t is not for want of capacity that
many women are trifling, insipid COM
panions, i'll qualified for the friendship
end conversation of a sensible man, or
for the task of governing and instruct
ing family; it is often from the neg
lect of exercising the talents which they
really have, and from emitting to cul-
tiyate a taste for intellectual improve
ment. BY this neglect they lose the
sncerest pleasure, which would remain
when almost every other forsake them,
of which fortune or age cannot deprive
them, and which would be comfort
and resource in almost every situation
of life
