an earlier age than any of his ancestors His
grandfather, William L, of Germany, was sixty
three years old when. on the death of his father,
he was crowned King of Prussia. EN-
peror Frederick III. was f1fty-seven at the time
OF his succession. The present Emperor was
his grandfathers favorite, and has always been
more in harmony with the policy of Chancellor
Bismarck than his father. He is at heart a
soldier, and is so thoroughly German, that he is
said to detest his own mother because she is
English At the funeral OF his grandfather he
refused to walk with her. His hatred of the
Russians is even more violent than his dislike
for the English, and it is expected that
his rule will not be without accompani-
ments of war. He refuses to drink cham
payne because it Is French wine His init
mates have been the Crown Prince of Austria,
very dissolute young man, and Count Herbert
Bismarck. He was carefully educated, receiv-
ing his early Instructions under private tuition.
He was well grounded in the classics, lam
guages and mathematics, and was then sent to
the gymnasium at Cassel, where he was pre-
pared for the University at Bonn. He
worked hard and was allowed but
few privileges. He showed special
fondness for military history and things mill
tary. It Is said of him while at Bonn

was superior to most of his fellows in swim

He was much INDUCED by the students of the
university, who consented to produce plays
written by him. One Of these plays, which was
not thoroughly worthless, was 'Charlemagne,"
being founded on historical incident. He was
placed in the First Regm emit Of the Guard as
First Lieutenant after he had obtained his de-
gree at Bonn in 1877.
He served faithfully and was at the

A ChiId's Useful Dress.

A pretty and simple dress for little
girl consists of a straight, plated or
gathered check, in Jersey cloth or
flannel, and slightly full Garibaldi
bodice of the plain material, with in
serted vest of the check. One yard OF
the plain material, and two yards of
the check, will make the dress, and if
the skirt is hemmed up will provide,
by facing, for frightening another
season. OF course it may be made in
cotton instead of flannel; but care
should be taken not to allow the fash
ion in the shortness of the skirt A
skirt which only comes to the knee is
no more modest for small girl than q
large one; and the question is serious
one for mothers, how far they may be

ing, the barriers which native delicacy
and refinement erect in girls mind.

A "REMINISCENCES.

An Invasion of Spain by United States
Stops That Was Contemplated by Gem
eral Grant in 1874.
NEW YORK, June 16-The Herald pub
fishes an interview with a prominent
army officer, whose name is not given, in
which the officer tells Of plan made by
General Grant in 1874 for an invasion of
Spain by American troops. The
idea grew out of the butchery
of Ryan, the filibustering leader,
and nearly one hundred of his
followers in Cuba. General Grant was
President at the time, and he is said to
have made every preparation for hostile
ties, in the event of Spain refusing the
demands of the United States Govern
ment for reparation for the barbarous
execution of Ryan and his men. General
Sheridan was rendered command OF the
proposed invading army, with General
Meade as his chief of staff. Grants in
tention was to rendezvous fifty thousand
veterans Of the cival war, who were
to be modified near New York, and the
fleet prepared to carry them across the
Atlantic in two divisions. The idea was
to pretend that it was for service on the
Island of Cuba, but really to land on the
shores Of Spain, and march inland to
Madrid. Both Grant and Sheridan
deemed the movement a feasible one. aud.
had the United States declared war, i
would have been attempted.

WHERE SEALS LIVE.

The Best to BE Found in the Warm Part
of the Arctic Region.
t'The best sealskins come from the
comparatively warm part of the Arctic
regions"
From the warm parts9 1 thought
the seal liked ice and snow" inquired
the reporter.
'sThe fur SEAL" replied the furrier,
''likes cool weather and water, but he
does not like ice or snow. The fur
seal seeks his Arctic home in the sum-
mer and leaves it on the approach Of
winter for warmer ATTITUDES. The fur
seal is not very plentiful, but the hair
seal is found almost every where. The
value of the two skins varies-the fur
seal is worth twenty times as much as
the skin of the hair seal.
The inhabitants of the Arctic re-
gions make clothing and tents of the
skin of the hair seal. The hide of the
hair seal, which is secured off the
coasts of Labrador in large numbers,
is used for reticules, sealskin shopping
bags, ETC., and coupled with monkey
skins, they help to make a common
grade of kid glove. The fur seal is
gradually being exterminated, and
salskin is getting more expensive every
year. This is caused by there being
no laws to protect them, and they are
being killed all the year round. In
the North the fur seal is confined to
two limited localities, both in Behr-
ings Sea- The catch on the American
side is limited to 100000 a year,
and on the Russian side to 49,
600. This latter is sublet to the
American company. Thus the whole
of the fur business is virtually in the
hands of a single monopoly, and it is
estimated that not over or 10 per
cent more sealskins than this is fur
nished by all the rest of the world.
The American company is restricted
by act of Congress not to kill more than
100000 seals every year. The result
of this law has been that in a few years
there will be an enormous number Of
seals in Behring Sea. For some time
they have seemed to understand the
law and have been. coming to the
Yankees for protection. No one who
saw a seal skin in it's raw state would
believe that beautiful coat could be
made from it. 1t is an ugly-look1ng
affair, and the soft fur is covered over
by a hard, rough, heavy coat r

with no worse injury than eight
wound in the back of the neck that
soon healed. OF course many bullets
went astray and hundreds of horses
were killed, but q good shot would SCI
cure about one horse in three that he
attempted to crease as this mode OF
capture was called. The large caliber
rifles commonly in use were not adapted
to this peculiar mode of hunting, as If
they touched the sinew they were sure
to break it., and the wounds the
A or 52-calibre balls inflicted were too
severe. The weapon universally en-
ployed in creasing mustangs was the
old Hawkins rifle, which bullet not
much larger than pea, had set trig-
ger and required but a small charge of
powder. These weapons were wonder
fully accurate up to one hundred yards,
but inflicted a trif1ing wound, and the
bullet was ikelyto take course through
soft flesh around any hard object, in
stead of tearing through it, as larger
ball propelled by heavier charge of
powder would do. Hundreds. of mus
tangs, always the best animals in the
herd, used to be creased every year,
and this practice was kept up until the
herds had entirely disappeared.
1'Some of the horses thus secured
were very tough and fleet animals, but
few were of any practical use. Nearly
all were stations, as wild mare that
was good for anything was seldom seen
and the captured horses were nearly,
without exception, irreclaimably vi
cious, even when judged from the
Texas standpoint. Even when
broken to the saddle they could
only be ridden by the very best
horsemen and were always
on the lookout to do their riders an in
jury. Strange to say they seldom tried
to kick, but man had to be continu-
ally on the lookout for their fore feet
and teeth. They only used their hind
feet when man was about to mount,
but nearly every one of them had a
trick of kicking forward as soon as the
rider put his foot in the stirrup, and
unless he was wary he would receive
terrible blow on the leg. used to own
a horse that, / believe, could scratch
himself between the ears with his hind
foot, his hind leg being apparently
made of India-rubber. The instant he
felt foot in the stirrup his hind hoof
would come forward with the speed of
lightning, in the attempt to inflict a
most vicious kick. gave up mount
ing him in the usual way, and always
used to vault into the saddle without
touching the stirrups, feat easily
enough performed in my younger days,
although / would have some difficulty
in doing it now. / used to like to ride
wild horses, but after one or two mar
row escapes from their deadly forefeet,
which they would use if a man care
lessly stood in front of them, gave it
up and stuck to the tame stock. st.

cREAsING A MUSTANG.
The Skill Displayed by Texas Marksmen
In Capturing Wild Horses.

The Skill Displayed by Texas Marksmen
In Capturing Wild Horses.
j. T. Hill, at the present time live
stock agent for the Chicago & Alton,
and who for many years has been en-
gagged in cattle-raising in Texas and
the Indian Territory, remarked to a re-
porter: ''In the early days of the cattle
business in Texas, from 1857 to 1860,
the ranges were overrun by bands of
wild horses. These animals were a
great nuisance, as they would get
mixed with our loose horses and run
them off when any one approached.
As rule they were a rough, ILL
shaped set of beasts, and almost I'M
tamable, so that few attempts were
ever made to catch them, it being con-
sidered best to shoot them on sight
and thus get rid of disturbing
influence in our horse herds. Some
times, however, a really fine
animal would be seen and the ranch
men would try hard to secure
it. But the ordinary mode of capture,
lassoing, could seldom be used against
shy, and even poor horse. carrying
no weight, could outstrip very fine
animal with man on his back. have
chased wild horses hundred times,
and have become thoroughly convinced
of the truth of the English racing say
ing that the weight of stable key will
win or lose race.
Elm this extremity the Texans used
to resort to means of capturing the
horses which is, believe, exclusively
American. 1t was discovered, donot
know how, that blow upon particular
sinew in horses neck, located just
above where the spine joins the skull,
would paralyze the animal temporarily
without doing it any permanent injury.
In those days the Texans were nearly
without exception fine shots, and at
short range could send q rife ball with
phenomenal accuracy. The horses
could not be approached ex-
cept on foot, rand it was
impossible to catch them on
horseback. But, not to be overcome
by any such difficulties, the cowboys
discovered way to capture them.
Taking his rife, hunter would crawl
through the thick chaparral until
within fifty or sixty yards OF the horse
he desired to secure. Then. taking
careful aim, he would endeavor to send
q bullet through the top Of the neck so
as to strike the sinew. When this was
properly done the horse would fall as
If struck by lightning and remain In
sensible for ten or fifteen minutes, re-
covering completely in an hour or two.
