THE GERMAN CHANCELLOR.
The Great Prince to Resign on Account
 of Proposed Marriage.

BERLIN, April 6-The Cologne Gazette, which is Prince Bismarck's favorite organ and recognized means of communicating semi-ofticially with the public, publishes the following:
 "G1eat excitement prevails in diplomatic circles in Berlin over the possibility of the speedy resignation of Prince Bismarck be- cause of the proposed marriage of Prince Alexander of Battenberg and Princess Vic toria of Prussia. Prince Alexander wishes to accompany Queen Victoria to Berlin as a suitor for the hand of the princess. The bearing of the reports is so serious that they cannot be passed over. Until the Bulgarian question shall have been settled by all the powers the projected marriage can only be judged from a political point of view, and on that account the marriage is an impos- sibility. The German policy has its root in the endeavor to avoid anything that would be likely to arouse the slightest inducement for suspicion, and in the Bulgarian question Germany must, in ac- cordance with the declaration made by Prince Bismarck ill the reichstag, remain wholly uninterested party. As long as Bulgaria is in the question this course of action affords the only means of retaining the full confi- dence of the opposing governments. That confidence would be disturbed in an instant if the czar's most detested antagonist were to become the son-in-law of Emperor Frederick. As German patriot, Prince Alexander can not take step which can only be the reverse of beneficial to the Fatherland. The intelli- gence of the prince is so highly esteemed that it is impossible for him to attempt a suit which would assuredly cost the German people their chancellor"
 Reports are current throughout this city that Prince BiSmark has asked the emDerOr to relieve him of his post on account of the state of his health.
 LONDON, April GA dispatch received here confirms the report that Prince Bismarck is about to retire from the German chancellor ship.

Patti and the Burglar.

It is said that shortly before Nine.
Patti left Wales for her South American
tour she had thrilling experience with q
burglar. The songstress was alone in her
chamber preparing to retire for the night,
when she heard sound in an adjoining
room, as If some one were moving about.
Patti hastily donned wrapper and walked
boldly into the room from which the
sounds came, and stood face to face with
a gigantic burglar. He wore mask to
conceal his features, and in his hand he
carried a heavy club. The plucky woman
asked him what he was doing there.
Don't you see" he replied in a broad
Welsh dialect, II am stealing your dia-
monds2"
And he held up to her astonished eyes
the most beautiful bracelet which she
possessed. Patti did not scream. She
simply walked across the room, pressed
an electric button to summon the servant.
Instead of the servant, however, Signor
Nicolini appeared on the scene. The
burglar attempted to strike him with his
club, but his game was frustrated by
Patti She grasped the club as it was
raised in the air. 'Nicolini and the bur-
glar then clinched, and in the struggle
that ensued the enterprising but alto
gether too candid thief was pitched out of
o second story window. He descended
gracefully and broke O leg. He was
found to be peasant whom Patti had
frequently befriended. London Cor. New
