This is kind of campaigning which has al

John Sherman within the last week or ten
days has developed the fact that he is to be a
candidate. He has made up with Charley
Foster and has held a number of consulta-
tons with financial men in New York who
were his warm admirers when he was Secre-
tary of the Treasury. The trouble with Sher-
man, however, is that he has no special fol-

have Ohio at Chicago. Sherman will en-

himself is not responsible for any of these
exaggerated claims. If Blaine's name is
kept out of the canvass the Vermont Senator

A Storu .About Bisnarcb.

The work just published by Prince Bis
marck's private historian, DR.. Moritz Busch,
entitled ''Our Chancellor" contains story
which, presented by writer who is known
to be honored by Bismarck's confidence, can
not but be accepted as true. A fortnight be-
fore the declaration of war in 1866 against
Austria the supposed author of that war
caused proposition to be made to the En-
peror Francis Joseph by which Austria and
Prussia-the former taking command of all
the troops in South Germany, the latter of all
the troops in North Germany-should unite
their forces and declare war against France.
The political object of the war was to be the
consolidation of Germany under the joint
leadership of Prussia and Austria, intimately
allied; the military object the reconquest of
Alsace for Germany as whole. France, ac-

A THOUSAND WIVES.
The Co,snubiaI Outfit ofSidi Muley Hassan.
Boston Adyertiser.l

Boston Advertiser.1
Do what they may, no Mormon leader will
ever equal the Sultan of Morocco, Sid Muley
Hassan, who has just added the thousandth
wife to his harem, and has celebrated this
unique millenary by brilliant feast given
to the other 500, or rather to the other 900,
for 400 are either dead or pensioned off.
Like the Mormons, the sultan does not keep
all his better halves at one place, but distri-
butes them among his winter and summer
residences at Fee, Morocco, Tafiet and so
forth. Even then, unless he has more pal
aces than fall to the lot of most emperors,
there must be enough in each house to Sc,
riously interfere with harmony now and
then. We wonder if he felt as much pride
and satisfaction when he added the thou
sandth to the number as Baron Tauchintz
did when he published the thousondth vol
ume of his convenient "Collection of British
Authors For we imagine that after man
has married his three or fourth hundredth
consort-though on this point we must speak
with the doubt arising from a total lack of
experience,-he cares very little for a new
wife, as wife, and regards each further adj
dition much as collector looks upon a new
Elezevir, or new specimen of Japanese
pottery, or another pipe, when he does not
care to smoke, another violin, which will
hang upon his wall untouched.
1t is the pleasure of the miser who heaps
up stores; pleasure which, in this line of
boarding, only one man in the modern
world, fortunately, is allowed to have. 1t is
curious, however, to observe that, while what
might be called the physical wonders of the
stArabian Nights Entertainments
carpet or the horse that travelled a months

that, while these and the like are coming

social wonders, as they seem to us Occident-
ais, are beginning to fade away son of
this very Sultan, the Prince Muley Edris,
not long ago married an Italian governess,
who did not give up her religion, and who
stipulated that she should be the only wife;
and brother Of the Sultan, the sheriff of
Wezdan, has an English wife, who, no
doubt, was equally determined to have her
husband all to herself.

ACHAT ABOUT NAPOLEON iii.
Mr.. McHenry's Ne,cs about the Var With
Prussia and NdpOleolr's Plan.
Naw York SuD

New 1OrK sun.
Mr.. James McHenry, who recently gave
Napoleon the First's chess table to Mr.. Geo.
Vanderbilt, talked the other day to report
er of the Cleveland Leader about his knowl-
edge of Napolean III, and the Empress Eu-
genie, with both of whom he was acquainted.
He says that the Empress Eugene took no
part in politics until she became interested
in the plan of her cousin, Ferdinand de Les
seps, for building the Suez Canal. The En-
peror's illness obliged her to attend the cele-
bration of the opening without him. The
Sultan built palace for her, Verdi wrote the
all, the affair eclipsed in splendor any series
of fetes recorded in modern history.
During her journey her confessor, Mon
signor Bauer, gained great influence over
her. She began to assume leading part in
politics after that. The Prince of Hohen-
zolleran had at Prussia's request declined
the Spanish throne, and the world supposed
the Spanish-Prussian incident at an end,
when suddenly the French ambassador at
Berlin demanded pledge from Prussia that
the Prince would not renew his claims.
Prussia would not consent, war was declared
at days notice, and the Empress fed to
England. Mr.. McHenry intimates that
Monsignor Bauer was, in great measure,
responsible for the war.
Napoleon, when in exile. called on Mr..
McHenry to raise ESQ, coo from eight persons
to relieve his immediate necessities. Mr..
McHenry gave 900, but the others, one
and all gave good excuses for declining.
The tales of Napoleon's fabulous wealth from
property in London and New York were
false. Until settlement with France was
effected he depended upon friends for sup
port. At Chiselhurst the ex-Emperor at
once began plan to regain the French
throne. 1t was easy to prepare the army for
this, and in fact, there was no deep feeling
against him among the people. The method
of his return was all arranged. He was to
land at Boulogne and go thence to Paris, his
own ambition being to re-enter the capital
mounted at the head of his armies. His ply
sicians forbade this, and he ordered the sur
gieal operation that ended his life. He was
a loving husband, and never reproached Eu-
genie for her follies and mistakes.
The astuteness she manifested at times
was remarkable. Once Mr.. McHenry and
and their Majesties were discussing an i'm
portant paper, when Eugene suddenly said:
tsAre YOU sure there is no little tail sticking
out?'' Mr.. MeHenry, misunderstanding her
meaning, said: 'Madame?" sAre you sure
there are no little tails sticking out? have
never yet seen any contract for State or pri-
vate affairs drawn up which was so compact
that SIN art man could not catch hold of
some little tail that had been left sticking
out, and so pull the whole thing to pieces"

Guarding WatermelOns and Displaying a

Wonderful Instinct.

''I believe I've got about the most instinct
Van Cobb yesterday. "Other pups may
show cuteness and cunning you know, my
dog the Duke of Rawhide Buttes, is not
only generally smart, but he keeps up with
the times. He's not only a talented cuss,
but his genius is always fresh and original"
'EWhat are some of his specialities, Van?"
said I.
ooh, there's good many of 'em fust and
last. He never seems to be content with
the achievements that pleas other dogs
You watch him and you'll see that his mind
is active all the time. When he is still he's
working up some scheme or another that he
will ripen and fructify later on.
''For three years. I've had a watermelon
patch and run 1t with more or less success,
reckon. The Duke has tended to 'em after
they got ripe, and was going to say that it
kept his hands pretty busy to do it, but to be
more accurate, 1 should say that it kept his
mouth full. Hardly night after the melons
got ripe, and in the dark of the moon, but
the Duke would sample cowboy for sheep
herder from the lower Poudre.
Watermelons were generally worth ten
cents pound along Union Pacific for the
first two weeks, and a fifty-pounder was
worth S.. That made it an object to keep
your melons, for in good year you could
grow enough on ten acres to pay off the ma
tional debt.
''Well, to return to my subject. Duke
would sleep days during the season and
gather fragments of the rear breadths of west
ern pantaloons at night. One morning
Duke had piece of fancy cashmere in his
teeth that tried to pry out and preserve, SO
that l could identify the owner, perhaps, but
he wouldn't give it up. 1 coaxed him and
damned him across the face and eyes with
an old board but he wouldn't give it to me.
Then watched him. I've been watching
him ever since. He took all these fragments
of goods, found over into the garnet above
the carriage shed.
Yesterday went in there and took Ian
tern with me. There on the floor the Duke
of Rawhide had arranged all the samples of
Rocky mountain pantaloons with good deal
of taste, and don't suppose you'd believe it,
but that blamed pup is collecting all these
little scraps to make himself crazy quilt.
''You can talk about your instinct in ami
mails, but, so far as the Duke of Rawhide
Buttes is concerned, it seems to me more
like all wool genius yard wide.''

An Anecdote of Seacard.

In an obituary notice of Mrs. Salmon P.
Grover, of Springwater, N. Y, the Rochester
Express says: There is one act which Mrs.
Grover performed which will not be forgotten
as long as the memory of Secretary Seward is
dear to the American people. That act is re-
corded in the life of Mr.. Seward. 1t appears
that when he was young man studying law
in Auburn, he and a colored servant drove
into Oswasco Creek to wash his carriage. By
some means the carriage was upset, and both
were thrown into the water. The colored
man being able to swim soon got out, but
Mr.. Seward was left struggling in the water.
Mrs. Grover seeing him from a chamber win
dow of house close by, rushed out, seized a
board and pushed it within his reach, and
thus saved him. A number of persons saw
tie accident, but none of them seemed to
render any help, and, if it had not been for
the action of Mrs. Grover, the future great
statesman would have gone to an early
grave. Mrs. Grover reached the advance age
of 81 years, and had been q resident OF
SprippWat since 1890
