THE AuDAc1ous BISMARCK.
How He coolly Smokes in the Presence Of
His Superiors.

Busch's life of Bismarck contains the
following amusing account of the man
ner in which the prince treated the Aus
trian President at Frankfort who mon
opolized the privilege of smoking. 1t
is from Bismarck himself + asked
about the famous cigar incident
(Which one do you mean?" That III
which your excellency, finding Rech-
berg smoking, lit up cigar too"
You mean Thun. Yes; that was a
simple matter enough. He asked me
to wait minute. l did wait some time.
When l began to feel bored, however,
as he did not offer me cigar, took
one out of my pocket and asked him for
light, which he gave me with aston
ishment depicted upon his countenance.
But there is another story of the same
sort. At the sittings of the mill
tary committee, when Rochow repre-
sented Prussia at the Federal Diet,
Austria alone smoked. Rochow, who
was an inveterate smoker, would have
gladly done the same, but did not dare
to. When / arrived, seeing no reason
to the contrary, asked the presiding
power to oblge me with light. This
request was apparently regarded by the
chairman and the other gentlemen with
amazement and displeasure. Obviously,
1t was an event. Asmatters then stood,
only Austria and Prussia smoked But
The others considered it a question of
such Importance that they reported up
On 1T to their respective governments.
somebody must have written to Berlin
abontit too; for an inquiry reached me
from his late majesty, who was not a
smoker, and probably did not find the
occurrence to his taste. The incident
called for serious consideration at the
smaller courts, and six months elapsed,
lurins which only the two great
nowers smoked Then Schrenkh, the
Bavarian, began to vindicate the dignity
of his position by smoking, Nostitz.
;he Saxon, had doubtless a great mind
20 do as much, buthsd not received per-
mission from his minister When,
however, at the next sitting, he
,aw the Hanoyerian, Bothmer, light up,
le must have come to some arrange
nent with Rechberg (Nostitz was under
Austrian influence, having two sons in
ihe imperial army, for he took cigar
out of his case and pulled away vigor-
ously. The only ones left were the
Wnertemberger and the Darmstaedter,
neither of whom smoked. But the hon
or and importance of their states imper-
atively required that they should smoke
and SO next time the Wuertemberger
Won Reinhardt) also produced weed

yellow thing, the color ofrye straw

ior his Suabian fatherland. The only
one who altogether refrainel from TO-
oacco was the representative of Hesse

Winter in England.
.etter from Rev. Robert Collver


l have heretofore refrained from tell
ng of the phenomenal winter we have
oeen having here in London. 1t is now
gone, and the first month of spring is
learing its end 1t has been the most
.ovely season l have ever known on this
sarth. The weather from November to
April-for we are in the last week of
March-has been simply delicious
There have been no fogs, no frost, very
little cold weather, no more rain than
vas pleasant, and sunshine, at times,
ike that of Italy All this month the
,un has shone all day and all the days.
The east wind has forgotten to blow.
ALI nature in and about London has
oeen merry making. The grass in the
parks and fields has been green almost
IS in May, and flowers have bloomed in
,he gardens the whole winter long.
All nature seems to be putting on
summer attire. we have had winter
,nly in name, and our March also has
,nly been nominal. The nightingales,
Which, under normal conditions, come
md of April, are already lifting up their
5oices. The bluebeils and primroses
Ire covering the earth with their color
md loveliness, and in the public parks
md private grounds the hyacinths are
illing the mir with their perfume The
.rees are putting forth their buds and
heir bloom. Spring, instinct with life,
$ npon us, in all its sweet and sacred
:esmrection, There is an abundant
glory overspreading all nat1re-the
Earth is rich in verdure; the foliage is
bursting into life; the birds are making
own and country vocal; the sun is
'ouring down its splendor over it all.
[ have never seen nature in a happier
mood. It is all supremely lovely.

IMPORTANT TO PRE.EMpYORS.
The Duluth Lani Officers Oyarruled b.
the Commissioner OF the General
land Gt;ce.

Duluth Special:-The land officers
here received from Commissioner
Mcfarland. of the general land office,
Il decision on the question whether a
pre-emptor can mortgage or sell his
presumption, after final proof has
been made. to a party for a money adj
vance, being unable to make improve
ments OF payments on it. The case
is that of Michael Sobiesky and Fred
erick Engel, who entered Il pre-emp-
ton here and carried out the require
mcnts Of the law regarding settle
ment and improvements. When
proof was offered it was shown by the
agent, w. Il. Marshall, that the claim
ants had agreed to mortgage the land
f.! after proof to Michael Fink, to secure
the payment of money advanced for
supplies and information furnished
them. The land officers here, Sept.
%, 1888, on this showing rejccted the
proofs and claims, on the ground that
pre-emptors did not take the land in
question for their own exclusive use
and benefit. The cas- was appealed
and the following decision. overrul-
ing that Of the local land officers, has
been given:
There being no other objection to
proof than agreement for mortgages.
the question to be determined is their
effect on homestead entries. In that
regard you are informed it was ruled
by the honorable secretary of the in
terror in the case of Larson VS.. Weis-
checker, involving a presumption en-
try. (CobbHs l.. O. vol. 8, page COY that
a mortgage issued by a presumption
entry-mm prior to final proof, to Sc
cure money loaned him to pay the
government price of land, is not such
an agreement for conveyance as will
invaiidaJe his entry under the law.
BY analogy the same principle applies
to the case of committed homestead
entries, and it is immaterial as effect
ing entries, that part of the money
borrowed is applied in a manner to
enable the claimant to comply with
the requirement. of the law, and for
the betterment of the claim, as we'll
as pay the government price for the
land. Therefore, the proof of the
question submitted in support of the
respective applications to commute
should be accepted and final certifi'
Gates issued theron, and the same is
herewith returned.

A CIRCULAR received by the PRESS
from Alexander Mckenzie in regard
to the Dakota exhibit at the Worlds
Industrial Cotton Exposition to be
held at New Orleans, from December
l to June l, proposes a plan by which
money can be raised to defray the eX-
penses of such an exhibit. The Cir
cular shows clearly the advantages
to be derived from the exhibition of
the agricultural and mineral products
of Dakota at this exposition. 1t
states that the cost will be $4,000.
which will be used in transporting
and defraying other expenses of eN-
hibiting from twenty to thirty cars
of samples of wheat, oats, barley, rye
and other products Of the soil. 1t is
proposed to raise this by a. assess
ment upon the various counties of
the territory, as it is thought that
each board of county commissioners
will be willing to make an a%ppropria-

thought to be the best plan and then
each county a request it's member
in the legislature to vote for a bill
making an appropriation from the
territorial funds to reimburse the
counties. Let the county board ap.
point two competent men to select.
prepare and properly mark samples.
Nothing can be done to better adver'
tise Stark county to the world than
an exhibit of her products at this ex
position as it will be visited by thous
ands of people from all parts of the
world and by the plan proposed the
county only loans the money to thu
territory. The legislature does no
meet until January and for this rea
son an appropriation by the territor,
cannot be made before that time
1t is hoped that Stark county will
take prompt action in this importan
