Private Life of Emperor william.

The private life Of the Emperor Will
liam flows along very simply. When in
Berlin he occupies a comparatively
small palace on the corner of Inter den
Linden and the Opera place, his pres
ence being made known to the Ber
liners 10y Che red flag with the Landwehr
cross, which is then hoisted over the
roof. The window of his study on the
ground floor looks out upon that point
in Inter den Linden where Rauch's
statue of Frederick the Great stands.
Ordinarily the Emperor rises between
6 and 7 o'clock in the morning. He
dresses at once completely for the day
the convenience of dressing-gow and
slippers is unknown to him. The room
to which, after slight breakfast, he
goes for work is rather plainly furnished.
There is mahogany writing table
covered with writing materials of every
kind, packages of letters, small presents
from members of his family,
and mementoes of battles in
the form of paper weights. Smoking
implements fail, for the Emperor is no
friend Of tobacco. On a long and broad
table near by lie books, maps, bundles
of documents, and papers of various
kinds. The Emperor sits at his work
on an ordinary chair covered with leath-
er, and receives personally all COM
munications, opens them himself writes
his decision on the margin, and hands
them to his secretary to be disposed of.
One of his peculiarities is his economy
in the use of paper and envelopes. In
Versailles one evening he announced
new victory of the Germans to the
Chancellor on piece of paper which
had been torn from a letter. In Berlin
the envelopes which reach him with re-
ports from the Foreign Office addressed,
ITO his Majesty the Emperor" go back
with the ''to" erased and "from" sub
stituted, so that the envelope reads,
sFrom his Majesty the Emperor, with
"To the Chancellor" written brneath.
The Emperor's extraordinary capacity
for work makes it possible for him to
dispose, as a rule, personally of the
affairs connected with his office, or at
least to direct their disposition in his
own way.-Dr. Moritz Busch, in Har-
per's Magazine.

Two high bred women-one from
New York, the other from Boston-hap-
pened to meet in what is ironically
called social circle. Both were rich
and accomplished, and both claimed to
have ancestors. Boston, in the course
of q little conversation between the two,
alluded, in the most seemingly unpre-
tentious way, to the trivial circumstance
that her ancestors came over in the May
flower. "Ah!" replied New York, with
little lift of her eyebrows expressive
of innocent surprise, II did not know
before that the Mayfower brought over
any steerage passengers"

For tho Aid OF Gen. Grant.

Washington Special Edmunds left
the chair of the vice president Wednesday to
offer bill to place Gen. Grant on the retired
list of the army, and in a brief speech alluded
indirectly to his financial failure, which was
announced in the papers, He said he hoped
the committee on military affairs would hasten
the passage of the bill. Such measure has
been repeatedly introduced in congress, but
has invariably failed. Southern dhmocrats, es-
pecially ex-confederates, are kindly disposed
toward Grant, and little opposition is anticipat-
ed beyond that Of democrats of the Holman
type in the house, and Voorhees, type in the
senate. While it is we'll known that Grant has
comfortable fortune left, there is generous
feeling that his services deserve the providing
OF him against the ups and downs of CONNER

Some excitement was caused last Saturday by
the announcement of the failure of the North
western Car and Manufacturing company at
saltwater, Mimi, of which Senator D. NJ. Sa-
bin is president, and the appointment of E. s.
Brown, of the firm of Hersey Bean 4 Brown,
of saltwater, as receiver.
The failure is ascribed to losses by fire, dull
times, the non payment of notes for machinery,
and the failure Of loan negotiations in New
York consequent upon the great Marine bank
failure. The assets are reported at four mil
and q quarter. A note of $5, 600 went to protest
Friday night, and on Saturday the executive
committee decided that it would be best for all
parties to throw the whole concern into the
hands of receiver.

Agricultural Items,

Mr.. Nimmo's recent conclusions are
especially cited as "a damper upon the
trichinosis shriekers":
HE inquired of the Health Depart
ments of the large cities, and the reports
cover not less than five years in any
case, and some of them run back to
1884, and in all the vast aggregate ci
deaths in all this time IN all the sections
only about ten have died of trichinosis.
If trichin@ cannot do worse than this, it
deserves no more censure than hunks of
beefsteak that have choked men to

of the fittest" is the rule, gobblers
weighing forty pounds are not infre-

custom of breeding from the smallest

birds that do not weigh more than eight
or ten pounds, dressed.

DEALING WITH RIOTERS.
How Sheriff and Six Men DISPERSED
400.

Mr.. George W. Veatch, now of Nye
county, Nevada, but formerly Of Cincin-
natl, writes home telling of mob out
West and how it was dispersed. He
says:
Il few years ago, in the county next
adjoining Nye (Nevada) on the east, a
the town of Eureka, where there are
large silver smelling works, using an
immense amount of charcoal, which is
supplied from the mountains, mostly by
italian coal burners, they struck for
rise in price, and would allow no one to
bringecoal to town. There were some
l $1,000 them in the business.
The Sheriff telegraphed the Governor
that he feared a riot. That morning a
man came in and said the burners were
assembling mounted and armed, and in
tending to come to town. The Sheriff
jumped his horse, armed with Henry
rifle and revolver. Before he got out Of
own he hallooed to six men to arm and
follow him, and meet him at a certain
place. He could have had hundred
men if he had said so. Meeting at the
place he said: I'm going to make a
speech to that crowd, and by Cd they
must and shall listen to me- Tie your
horses boys, our Henrys are good for
sixteen shots each, and our Colts for
six each. Now don't shoot until say
the word, and not unless they defy me-"
Then on those seven men went on foot,
about a quarter of mile, and came to
the strikers, fully 1900 men mounted
and armed, but sober, though like their
race they became very excited on seeing
seven armed men coming toward them.
The leader rode down on them fol-
lowed by the whole gang. The sheriff
said: "You know Tn the Sheriff. You
are an unlawful crowd. You must dis
perse." "To hell with you and the
law" and all the vast crowd were riding
round that little band of seven men, with
fearful oaths in their own language.
Boys" said the sheriff, "look sharp!"
Furiously the leader damned and detied
them. At the word fire" the sheriff
killed the leader, and seven bodies
rolled from their saddles, and the quick
repeating rifles killed twenty of them
before their horses could take them out
of range. Had the seven kept their
horses so they could have pursued
them, many more would have been
killed. They didn't think the
sheriff meant anything more
than talk. Had they got into town and
whiskied, there would havd been an
awful riot. So severe was the lesson,
and so many mounted men were seen
by the Italians urging their horses
towards Eureka, they fled further into
the mountains, thinking the whites
were rallying to again slaughter them.
That determined sheriff in few days
went out to their haunts and told them
they could return to their business and
wouldn't be molested. "But if you
break the laws you'll suffer worse next
time"
One said: "Pini Garlicis horse
threw him, poor fellow! and one of your
men shot him." The sheriff told them
they could go to town aud get the bod
les. A few went in, but they felt
safest when the sheriff was in sight.
Many left the country and there has
never been any more coal-burners at
tempting to DEFY the law.
