WE are glad to learn that the direc-
tors Of the National Educational asso-
citation propose to make a thorough in
vestigation of the methods by which
their Will was defeated and the conven-
ton diverted from Helena, to Saratoga.
Some of the letters written by Cook will
be introduced in evidence and the
'GreenwooG letter." which Cook put in
his pocket will be made public if Cook
has not destroyed 1t. The gentlemen

'bond of union was adopted, and in

The Wife of Bismarck.

The influence of the Princess Bismarck
over her husband has been strong, endur-
ing and elevating. and has never, for a mo-
ment, wavered, writes the Countess Will
helmina, in the December Ladies' Home
journal. 1t is no doubt true, as the prince
so often says, that what he is she has made
him. Always she has enjoyed his entire
confidence, and knows his diplomatic in
t~entions and plans from conception to frui-
ton. the trust which he places in her dis
erection and devotion being implicit.
By her marriage with Prince Bismarck
she has had three children, all of whom are
living. Herbert, William and Marie, now
the countess of Rantzau, who lives with
her parents and three little sons at Fried
richsruhe.
The family goes but little into society.
preferring rather to entertain their friends
in their home. The princess is a fns mu-
stefan. her taste for classical music being
strongly developed. And one of the pref
test sights at the castle is the evening pic
ture of Bismark, sitting in his arm chair,
poking meditatiyely at the fire, while his
wife plays Beethoven's sonatas to him, and
the family and guests sit about listening
and enjoying.
She is of a quick, lively disposition, with
good taste, clever wit and intelligence of
more than ordinary quality. She is Il most
prudent and economical housekeeper, FAM
Gus in times past for the delicious little
dinners which she could concoct with the
smallest of OUTLAWS. '
Her religious character is strong to the
degree of bigotry. Having inherited a
strain of Evangelical piety--her parents
were staunch Moravians-she has a feeling
of such intense hatred for the French,
whom she regards rs a nation of heretics.
that she was most bitter in her denuncia-
ton of them, and strongly urgent in her
advice to her husband to extsrminate
them, her sole reason for all this being a
fanetical zeal for the well being of the
Evangelical religion.
The princess taste in dress is exquisite,
simple and neat; her manner is sweet and
natural, soma one once having said of it
and of her, "she wins all hearts, where the
prince takes them by storm"
In appearance she is still a pretty woman,
and one with a nobility of expression better
than mere beauty. She is of medium build,
5 feet 7 inches in height, although Prince
Bismarck made IL note on his bedroom door
posts. where he inscribed. in 1880, the
heights of the various members of his
family, to the effect that the princess tip
toed a little to reach this.

The Ohio republicans have split on
the old line of Blaine and anti-Blaine
again. Foraker visited Washington the
other day and was snubbed by the
president, and on the same day Secre-
tary Foster formally declared himself in
favor of Sherman for reelection. Sher-
man has ceased to expect a nomination
for the presidency and will support
Harrison for denomination. Foraker, as
in 1854 and 1883, will work for Blaine
and Foraker as the ticket. The Ohio
delegation to the republican national
convention promises to be a very inter-
esting and inharmonious body.

HuRRAH for Minneapolis! Hurrah

Seward, a quarter Of a century ago at
the falls OF st. Anthony, "will be the
future seat of empire" The prophecy
has been fulfilled. The seat of empire
is there and one of the great political
parties recognizes it by calling its o n
vention there for 1892. The republican
party never took a wiser step than in
voting to go to Minneapolis. 1t was a
shrewd move on the political checker
board, worthy of the astute minds that
planned it,

The Chessman Hearing.

The evidence in the Kicker vs.. Chessman
suit is all in and the case awaits Judge
Buek's decision. 1t is claimed on behalf of
the defendant that the following facts were
adduced in the ttinl: The 3icker estate in
ventoried July, 1875, 1914, 4G7. 30, and up to
the time of trial, Mr.. Chessman, as execu-
tor. has paid the widow and children
$40, .5b i'll cash and the debts and taxes
and other expenses paid bv him amounted
to SlO,497.S5. Evidence was introduced to
show that if the monies of the estate had
been invested in government bonds as di-
rected by the will the shrinkags in the rev
enue would have Appropriated $4,000 and
its funds exhausted three or -four years ago.

LATER in the winter the question of a
new charter, or of amendment OF the
present one, will probably be taken up
with a view to having a bill ready to
submit to the legislature a year hence.
One Of the first amendments adopted
should be n fixing the term Of the
mayor at two years. We elect a new
mayor in April and before he gets fairly
warm in his seat and understands the
duties of his office his term will expire,
under our present charter. 1t takes at
least two months for a new administra-
ton to get under way thus leaving only
three or four working months to carry
out any public improvement begun
under his administration, before winter
sets in. A mayor with q one year term

Gently sued her husband for the cost of 312

Better Than They Looked.

When Matthew Arnold was in this
country he spent some days at Cleveland,
the guest of a prominent citizen. One
morning his host put before him at the
breakfast table, among other things, buck
wheat cakes. For a long time neither he
nor his wife tool any cakes, but noticing
that his American friends ate them with a
great apparent relish and gusto, he ginger
ly took one on his plate, and tasted it very
critically. Then leaning over to his wife
he said: YOU'D better try one, dear, they
alb not 'alf SO nawssy as they look"
