BISMARCK or TO-DAY.


BISMARCK or TO-DAY.
uiS xeEsonAl AppeoEaaoo and Hls Abllltv
- N Orator.
Bismarck has grown old during the
last few years. his mustache is white
- snow. and his walk less erect than
In former years. but the power OF his
face and the might of his eyes live still
tho same as they did ten years ago.
When he sits down II is a. ii he was
on guard. his sword laid across his
knees. as formerly old Hagen used to
sit. and though he is no Hagen in
guilt and wickedness, he Is Hagen in
faithfulness and. if need be, in stern
wrath And he Is on guard at the
gates of the Fatheriand.
Bismarck. as every body knows. is
not an orator. nearly said. thank
God. he is no orator. His speech has
been likened to q forest stream which
rumbles over stones and roots. The
comparison is somewhat poor. I
think l know q better. though a rather
technical one-namely. his speech is
like quicksilver drawn out. Take q
drop of quicksilver containing some
lead or zinc, put it on pane of glsss
and hold it slantingly. The drop
swells and rolls. but presently it stops.
becomes thinner and longer, remains
immovable for a moment, gathers new
otronU 9th IN Aory hooovuos thin nuOo
again. and SO forth. Thus it is with
the Chancelor's words; first half q
sentence comes out. then he hesitates,
stops. or utters q short inarticulate
sound, and goes ON again. It is evil
dent that to speak is a physical exer-
ton, but even when he is in first-rate
form he does not talk luently.
But on closer observation the reason
appears very soon. The form of his
speech is improvised on the spur of
the moment, but unlike many fluent
speakers. he does not use the first ex-
preston which may come to his mind,
but while he is uttering the first half
of sentence he is thinking how to
shape the second half in order to ex-
press exactly what he wishes to say.
If he makes joke or slight observa-
ton he speaks quickly and without
hesitation, but as soon as he returns to
the serious treatment of q political SUBJ
ject this painfully-accurate expression,
the result of mental work. becomes
again apparent, which shows that he
endeavors not to say q syllable which
he can not reconcile with his respon.
sible position. This is the reason why
his speeches concerning foreign poll
tics, read like official diplomatic dOcu.
ments, every word is carefully CON.
His voice is peculiar, high-pitched
and not very powerful. 1t has been
called thin voice, but this only ex-
presses one of its qualities. Another
is that it Is so remarkably young THAI
one would think it almost incredible
for a man Of his age to possess such .
voice. II one does not see him while
he is speaking it is difficult to believe
that it is not q young Lieutenant Of
who is speaking (Which.
by the way, is rather a pity. since the
snarl and the drawl of the German
is detestable). But put in
with this quality it can
sound extremely soft and flattering,
and I should not b. surprised II in
tormer years, when he was Ambas-
'ador. some of his personal successes
had been due just to this timbre Of his
voice. Cologne Gazette.

Proposes.
Enquiry at the Office Of the San Antonio
Street Railway com pany ELECTS the fact thai
this company is earnestly endeavoring to
meet as far as In their power all the demands
for fair ground travel that will be made upon
them. 1t Is their understanding that the san

To 40 this the Flores rect line will be con.
nected with the Alamo street line al the Aran-
sas Pass depot and cars on Flores street Will
land their passengers at the temporary depot.
Cars over the San Pedro and Alamo line will
land their passengers at the temporary depot
as a matter of course, and to accommodate
the Government hill travel transfer tickets
will be given from that linetO the Alamo line
making a through rate OF five cents. Three
additional switches will be pul in on the Alamo
track, between Alamo plaza and the temporary
depot. and three switches added on the green
line Government hilD Cars will be run over
the San Pedro line every five minutes and
over the green line every six minutes. An ad-
dition of sixty mule power has been made
to the motive power of the company which
will allow eight muies to a car aud greater

These are the arrangements proposed by
the street car company and IL Is most devout-
ly to be desired that they will be fully carried
out The superintendent of the road says
there will be no doubt about II If the temper
airy depot is placed at the intersection of their
line with that of the Arkansas Pass railway

from street car TO rail. The five cent trans
fer rate Is the correct thing. superintendent

Hercuiean Strength

Continually on the strain, or overtaxed at in
tervals. is far less desirable than ordinary
vlgor perpetuated by rational diet and exer-
else, and abstentatiOn from excess. Profess
stonal pugilists and athletes rarely attain ex-
treme old age. As ordinary vigor may be re-
tanned by wise regard for sanitary living.
and for the protection against disease which
timely and judicious medication affords, so
also it may be lost through prolonged seden :
tary labor, uninterrupted mental strain, and
foolish eating and drinking, the chief and
most immediate. sequence of all four being
dyspepsia. For this condition thus, or in any

Why Sells Brothers and Barrett Sue
coed,

The public should be more discriminating
To class al Circuses alike is as unfair as to-
class all me rchants alike. There is as much
difference between shows as there is between
individuals. Take, for instance. ellis Broth.
ers and Barrett's united shows They are as
superior to other cOntemporaneous exhibit
tons as Booth and Barrett are to tramping
set of transformers; it towers above the
average show as the Sierra Nevada range
does above a miners cabin; as the big trees
of California above hazel brush. This
monster coalition travels in prince'y style,
employing over a thousand people: its tents
cover ten acres of ground; it requires four
big locomotives to haul it, and it would be
cheaper to pay S. to see it than to pay 10
cents to see the common, ordinary shows
that infict their presence on patient and
long suffering people every season. Not
withstapdng the enormous expense attend
ing such a monster enterprise, the admission
s no more than many of the small Indifferent
shows charge. Barrett's show alone has al
ways been the peer of any of its rivals ex-
cept Sells Brothers great show, and both
now are united and will exhibit as one at
San Antonio on Monday November 4tb.

FIGHTING FIRE.

A Severe Encounter With the Flames Bent on
Destroying the City OF Para.
NEW YORK Aug. "a. The Pacific mail
steamship City of Para with twenty-nIne
cabin passengers arrived at Sandy Hook
this morning from Aspinwall. The
scoamings of the forward hatch burned
and scorched were the outward marks of
the big fire which came very near de-
stroying the vessel and precious cargo.
The Para left New York the first Monday
in this month with full cargo Of mer-
chandise. She reached Aspinwall in
due season and Iongshoretnen and sailors
had discharged $50 tons of the cargo
when the fire was discovered among the
cotton and naval stores in the forward
compartment. This was on the evening
of August Il, two days after the vessel s
arrival. The fire had complete control
