BISMARCK.


Ine IGeICHSfath.
Bismarck is the greatest figure which
has appeared in the craftsmanship of
Europe since Richelieu, and he carries
with him all the outward signs of
majesty and power in a greater degree
than any parsonage of his time. He is
taller than the late Gar Nicholas, has
a head the size of Webster's and a
breadth and massiveness of body equal
to those of the late General Scott
When he enters the Reichstag it is like
the entrance of Jupiter among the HER
archy of Olympus. His eyebrows are
thick, white and overhanging; his mus
tache, likewise snow white, and, as a
recent correspondent describes him,
"his face is covered with folds and
wrinkles, broad rings surround his eyes,
and even his forehead is drawn into
minute corrugations like the skin upon
withered apple. His head is naked
of hair and shines like dome vi
polished ivory. His eyes have a cold and
somewhat cruel expression, and when
he begins to speak the color of his face
changes from pale to red, and gradually
assumes a light bronze shade which
gives his powerful skull the appearance
of FURNISHED metal" His voice is soft,
almost weak, and when he has spoken
for while it grows somewhat hoarse.
He speaks'rapidly or with deliberation,
according to his mood, but never in a
loud voice; is courteous, though some
times ironical in manner and gives
token Of his rising wrath, which is fire.,
quently excited by his opponents, rather
by the swelling of the huge veins in his
neck and by clutching at the collar of
his uniform than by any furious rhe-
torical outburst. He makes the memo
randa for his speeches on loose sheets
of quarto paper with pencils more than
foot long and the words which he iots
down with them and utters in so soft a
tone have the weight of cannon balls.
The old Chancellor draws now to the
end Of his career; his imperial master is
slumbering away the remnant of bis
hours, and when he passes away, which
may be at any time, the work of his
mighty minister, the greatest who has
ever served the house Of Hohenzollern or
wrought in the political concerns of the
Fatherland, may be regarded as prac-
tcally accomplished Cor. Brooklyn

"A pianofortc railroad carts in course
of construction for an English railway
company, a method being provided for
deadening the sound of the car-wheels.
In view of the fact that such long dis
tances are traversed by American rail-
ways, and that travellers are forced to
spend 50 much time in idleness, perhaps
it may come to pass that trains running,
say. between Chicago and San Fran
cisco. will be provided with cars for the
entertainment of passengers by concerts
or dramatic epresentations.-C5t Current.

COLORADO RATTLESNAKES.
The Boon Companions of Prairie Dogs and
Their Enemies.

Occasionally by the hard baked mound
Of prairie dogs hole, the sunlight would
strike with a dull glitter on the back of
D rattlesnake, and the boys were never
in too great hurry to stop and kill the
''varmint" with the loaded end of a
puirt. The snakes were arrant cow
ards, always making every effort to run
away from an attack; as, however, their
very best time was never faster than Il
lazy man could walk, they were never
allowed to escape. They were easily
-iviiied, "a small blow from quirt or the
knotted end of lariat, stretching them
out motionless but for faint movement
of the tail, which the cowboys claim will
not die until shutdown.
One Billy insisted upon stopping and
skinning one peculiarly sleek and shiny
specimen. He said that a snakeskin
worn around the hat would always ward
off headache and toothache from the
wearer, and he considered it an especial
ly prudent plan to assume this simple
preventive at the beginning of round

into the back of q live rattlesnake would
insure a person good teeth for the rest
of his life. He was absolutely certain
about that, although he owned he had
callers, somehow, felt agin tryin' it him
self" Billy's "pard," Sam, seemed to
express the general sentiments of the
party when he remarked that there was
''lots of curiousness about snakes. "
Sam said he always carried piece Of
blue vitriol in his pocket at a roundup
for snake bites. If he was bitten he had
only to spit on the vitriol and rub it on
the spot to draw out all the poison at
once. But the rest of the party were
disposed to boot in derision at this rem
,dy, preferring to place their reliance
On good wislSy. Sam had proper re-
peet for this remedy, too, but he agreed

ooh, l have an ideal" cried Aunt

When Mrs. Agnew heard it She
laughed heartily. Your plan was a.
brilliant one, after all, " said She.
''Of course l am abiding by the letter
of the compact, said Aunt Abby The
one who denies herself the most for the
sake of the others has The reward; and
Polly is certainly the one, so far. She
is giving up her own way and her own

said, If Pollyis not really doing this

Abby. She had always thought that lit

as any Of them.
When the month was up they all
went over to Aunt Abby's one after
noon. The prize was to be awarded,
and then they were to stay to supper,
and the winner was to pour the tea into
those beautiful pink cups herself. They
| all SAT around in Aunt Abbv's parlor.
and Mrs. Agnew drew paper out Of
her pocket and began to read TO a SOL
emn and anxious audience tie list of
credit-marks; and Polly had won the
pink china cups
There was clamor of wonder and
dissent then. They did not understand.
Why, Polly had not done anything
But they understood well enough after
few words OF quiet explanation from
Aunt Abby. There was no gainsaying
it; Polly had lawfully won the prize
The three older ones looked at each
other in dismay for u minute, and they
begun to laugh.
"It's a good joke on US, said Allie,

Polly Is a good little thing. I'm real
glad you've got them, Polly why,

For Polly had hidden her face in her
hands and was crying as if her heart

They all crowded around her. ex-

close down to hers. ''Tell me what is

'l-I-didn't want EN-! tried not

Then they all tried to comfort her for
getting the reward, but, in spite of
them, she Iocsled meek and rueful when
She poured the tea.
