Under the dIplomatic deals OF Prince
Bismarck the European war is subsid-
ing. Bismarck is of the opinion that
quiet will be maintained until 1899. He
says:
"Russia is not yet fully prepared for
war, neither is France, for France has
not yet the powder in sufficient quenti-
ties for her new rifles. Austria is not
prepared, and Germany-weli, l will not
say whether Germany is prepared or not.
It will take four or five years before any
OF the great powers will have attained
their maximum fighting strength. Un-
til this maximum is reached do not see
any imminent probabilities of war. The
czar is peaceful. Nov let mo tell you
something else. I am almost certsin
that, in spite of all that ,s said to the
contrary, the czar does not want war;
the Emperor William does not want wsr
Austria does not, with the exception oi

does not want war, and I myself simply

Probable Murder at Pipestcne.

Pipestone, Feb. 2-Henry Pedre. who
was found burned in his barn in the
northern part of this country few days
ago, lived just on the edge OF Lincoln
county. He was somewhat OF reoluse
and supposed to have considera BILE
money. 1t is claimed that he received
about $500 while in Pipestone few days
before the tragedy, which circumstances
would indicate q murder. The dis
arrangement of the house, blood on the
sheets and pillows and grain sacks near
the door, the finding OF the socks and
cap worn by Pedre, he being known to
have but the ono cap, form chain OF
circnmstantiel evidence that O heinous
crime hos been committed; that the
murder was accomplished at the house
aud his body taken TO the barn, which
wes set on fire to cover up the deed. The
perpetrator OF the apparent murder is
unknown and unsupported, but ID is
thought an investigation will reveal q
clue which may lead to the discovery Of
the guilty parties.

AT THE CHURCHES.

Two Notable Sermons, Last EvenlDg-The
Concert ut st, Paul's.
There was a large congregation at the
Disciples Church, last evening, to listen
to the sermon announced to be delivered
by Prof. w. H. Woolery, Of Bethany Col.
ltge. The text was from 1, Cor, H., IL,
and upon it q most excellent discourse was
founded. He said success in life generally
came along the line of some great purpose;
it generally comes by or Though our plan
ming for it. The successful man is he wf0
can adapt tie means at hand to aid in Ch-
tanning q great end. The young men start
ing out in life, ought to form great pur-
poses, and some one. of tEsSe great pur-
poses ought to dominate every life. I'm
less there be some great end In view, we
are not apt to make the best use of the
means at our disposal, and in addition to
that, we are left in uncertainty as to where
we are finally to come cut. 1t is one Of
the certSiuties that be who has no great
purpose in life; viii likely fail, while be
who has formed such purpose will as like
ly succeed.
. The sermon was a valuable one, and was
attentively listened 10.
At the Third Presbyterian church, in the
Eighth ward, the pastor, Rev. L. ". Barr,
preached the second of his series Of ser
mons upon Success in Life" TO large
congregation. The branch OF the subject
taken up last evening was "Failure-Its
Causes" and the discourse was an intense
ly interesting one, and Of great intrinsic
value.

THE SUPREME COURT
Justified In Its Action By All Law and
Precedent.

H~recedenL
CHARLESTON, W. VA December 8.
To the Editor Of the Rtglter.
SR:-In the I~nteLigencer Of yesterday is
an outrageous reference to the Supreme
Court Of Appeals. The Prohibition" law,
which drew forth so many favorable COM
ments from the Republican press, decided
merely that prohibition would not lie to
compel the election commissioners to de-
eide rightly a question over which they
had jurisdiction when they had some evil
dencs before them. The Court did not de-
eide, and their correspondent, if be has any
legal sense, knows it, that the election
commits toners were beyond the control Of
the courts. The fst time tie Court
was ever called to interfere with
their action was by BraZie and
others, all Republicans, in 1884,
to prohibit the Democratic Board from
hearing evidence of fraud, and throwing
ont Republican ballots, aud the Count did
it by Prohibition" because the Commits
sioners had no jurisdiction to do that.
The next time 1t interfered was in the
casa Of Chenowith We. Commissioners, on
review of a writ of certOrdri, when that
Court unseated a regular Democrat and
seated a bolter. These two cases are the
basis on which tie Court interfered by
~mandamus to compel the Commissioners
TO make q record, so they could be reviewed
by certOrdri. The Supreme Court OF this
State has decided, as it happened, more
political cases, for Republicans than it has
for Democrats. Do the Republicans wish
to be governed by law and dec:ncy or do
they not? The case Of Poteet VS.. Com
missioners is 10 perfect harmony with sill
the cases. Will the I~nteHigmltr publish
this? JUSTICE.
