A Singular Revenge.
London Grnnhic.


Prince Bismarck's traditional three
single hairs as the sole ornaments Of
his massive head, have long been a
favorite subject Of caricature with the
Berlin comic journals, but the chan
cellor may now recognize this char
acteristic of his appearance depicted
in stone over several windows in Pots
dam. The owner of these houses,
according to the American Register,
is a rich capitalist who has worked his
way up from a simple mason with only
one disaster in his life-the loss Of
his only son in the Franco Prussian
war. He regards Prince Bislqark as
the author of the war, aud, therefore,
as his son s murderer, and so adopts a
somewhat singular method Of reveng.
ing himself upon his enemy. Over the
grave of his son in the Potsdam Gem
etery he has erected Q splendid
mausoleum, surmounied by an owl
with the face of Prince Bismark three
hairs and all On ono OF his houses
the Bismark head looks over the cor.
nice Of each window, with the three
hairs represented by small cannon,
On another building similarly adorned
three serpents take the place OF the
hairs; while third honse is now beins
built, and the capitalists neighbors
are eager to see what fresh Aatterinl
ornament will be bestowed on thu
princes head.

its way North. Lstterly, however, the
railroads have reduced the rates, and
the Southern product is now full of
competition in the Chicago market
with the celebrated white pine of
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
It is used extensively in government
buildings, and, in fact, to the almost
entire exclusion Of white pine for
flooring and heavy beams, and in posi-
tions where great strength, without
proportionate bulk is demanded. For
such uses the Southern pine is Of
greater utility than the hard woods Of
the North or the more bulky white
pine, being harder and stronger and
able to sustain greater weight.
Formerly prejudice existed against
this wood on the part of western
builders, who confounded it with Nor
way pine, but during the last two or
three years its merits have been fully
recognized, and it is now regarded as
indispensable in house building: so
much SO that every leading lumber
firm in Chicago now keeps large stock |
on hand, and finds the demand greater
than the supply.
For flooring, the Southern pine has
no equal, even among the hard woods |
OF the North, requiring less effort to
keep it clean and bright, at the same |
time that it wears we'll. For sills
OF railroad cars and for beams and
ratters, requiring great strength, it is |
far better than any known Northern |
wood. As finishing wood, oiled or
lightly vanished, nothing is more
beautiful to grain it, equaling. the
Lumberman claims, any walnut or ash |
II the timber is well selected and care. |
fully sawed, bastard limbs will do well |
for furniture and fine finishing |
especially in library and ornamental
paneling.
Altogether, the Lumberman can.
didly acknowledges that with favora.
BILE freight rates, this Southern wood |
must grow in favor in the North. and |
that it is destined to be constantly in
creasing in use and improving in price;
at which news, in view of the fact that
Louisiana has 3O0OO,OOO,0OO feet of
standing merchantable pine, more
than any State in the Union, our
people ought to feel delighted.

JEANNE BERNHGRDT
Receives a Rebuke for Having
Attempted to Ape Sara's
Caprices.

Those who saw Sara Bernhardt's
company in this country will recall
her sister jeanne. The sisters were not
held together by the bond of consan
guineous affection during their Amer.
lean tour. Sara resented the artless
tributes of the male Americans to her
sisters beauty, that young person pos
sessing an embonpOint which was lack
ing in Sara s physique. The two testy
kinswomen had bitter emeutes, which
required all the soothing tact Of Man
ager Abbey to allay; but when they
put their pretty feet upon their own
beloved soil, the two separated,
Sara unable to bear the contrast of
Jeanne's beauty, and Jeanne restiye
under her divine sisters artistic pre-
eminence. Having set up Tor herself
Jeanne was billed" in the provinces
as La Bernhardt, and has been reapinp
much vicarious glory, likewise gold.
Prosperity, or desire to rival her
sisters eccentricities, has set the

the climax Of the glory, it struck her
fancy to comply with the delirius
prayer of an adorer, and she calmly

The Southern Pine.
Nav nrlnn,a Timn,-nemoornt


The Chicago Lumberman, which
represents the lumber interest of the
great Northwest, has devoted cousid
erable space lately to a study Of the
timber interests of the South, in view
Of q possible movement OF the saw
mills in this direction, in consequence
of the exhaustion of Michigan forests.
IL finds a large increase in the
Northern consumption of Southern
timber within the past two years, and
particularly Of the Southern yellow
pine, the most abundant timber of this
section. Pine, it thinks, is the great
wood Of the South and will prove a
source OF inexhaustible wealth. Even
in Chicago, which lies in the very
center Of the white pine region, and
which receives billions Of feet of that
timber yearly, the Southern or yellow
pine Is forcing its way, being found
the best for many Important pses.
Hitherto the Southern pine hai

About II o'clock last night, Officer

ment near the east gate, leaning with
his back against the iron fence. The
blood streamed from bis right ear, and
a 32 calibre Smith & Wesson pistol lay
by his side. The ball had entered his
ear and imbedded itself in the brain.
An inquest was held by Esquire
Spelman, and the body taken to Coun.
ty Undertaken Walsh fer interment.
The verdict was death by his own
hand" The suicide was an utter
stranger in this city, and had nothing
about his clothing containing his
name. In his pockets were found an
open face silver watch with a silver
chain, match safe, two cards of st.
Louis saloons and one Of Cincinnati,
but no money. He was about fifty
years Of age, medium hight, partly
bald, and wore gray coat, black
diagonal pants, white vet and gaiter
shoes.
A memorandum book in the mans
pocket, contained the name of Charles

TIE merchants Of this oity topetb,

THE merchants of this city together
with commanders and owners Of boats,
we're to day notified by the United
States Inspectors of Vessels that it is
unlawful to convey cotton unless the
same is compactly pressed and
thoroughly covered with bagging or
similar fabric, and secured with good
rope or iron bands. The penalty for a
violation of this rule is fine of s. for
each bale carried, and the property is
liable to seizure and sale to secure the
payment Of such penalty. This is the
law as it appears in the revised statutes
of the United States, and it is to be
rigidly enforced here. The announce
ment has created considerable stir in
cotton and marine circles, as but little
Of the cotton so far received is covered
entirely on the sides of the bales.
The notice issued will necessitate the
complete covering of cotton bales with
bagging at the gins when baled, or the
the officers of boats will be compelled
to decline carrying it to market.
