Not A Chip Of The Old Block.

Count Herbert Bismarck is ab-
surdly described as perhaps the
most rising man to-day in the field
of European politics. So far is
this from being the case that l hear
from a person who is behind the
scenes in Berlin that count Her.
bert's days in the foreign Office are
numbered; that Oh the retirement
of prince Bismarck, which is GER
tain TO take place next spring, he
will be practically shelved by be-
ing dispatched to London as en-
bassador. The fact is that Her.
bert, instead of being a man ot
great political talent, is simply
nothing beyond manly, agreea-
bic German, without his father to
guide him. The most rising man
in European politics is count Wal.
dersee, who will be de facto ruler
of the German empire in c,njunc.
ton with the emperor before
