WAR TALK IN BERLIN
The Kaiser in q Great Rage
Against France.
ITALY ON THE WATCH AT PARIS
HOstilities May Break Out on the Frontier
at Any Moment.

Another Battle Expected Soon in Chill.
President BaImaceda to Move ON the
Enemy-He Has rs, 900 Men Under His
Commando Big Effort to be Made
to End the War.
BERLIN, Aug. 27.-The subject of war
between France and Germany almost
over-rides the question of famine and mis-
cradle crops.
The warlike tone of the Kaiser since his
return from his cruise has made deep
impression, and the belief is prevalent
that hostilities may break out at any mo
ment on the frontier.
The Kaiser is said to be even more pro
voked against France than when his
mother visited Paris. The stories of his
bodily infirmities and of his alleged ex
cesses have anRered him very much, al
though he has given no public expression
to his feelings.
The same sentiment, according to G
Rome dispatch, prevails in Italy. That
country has instructed its legations il
Paris and St. Petersburg to supply the
home government with constant reports
of military and naval development.

Houses of Glass.

Nowadays when people think pretty
much as they choose, and dress and act
in just as free a manner, it behooves
them to be rather chary of the way in
which they criticise their neighbors. 1t
is a good plan, before we begin to throw
up stones, to look about our own prem
ises and make sure that we have no
large sash exposed through which some
neighbor could easily drap a rock, to
our discomfort. One will be surprised
to notice in any gathering where pro-
miscuous conversation is INDUCED in, the
number of times people are summed up
"a splendid person, but a little off in
some things, and perhaps the very ones
who thus sum up another in so brief a
fashion may in turn be handled the
same way. In these days who shall say
who is off and who is not. People
whose conversatories have a southern
exposure, should not project missiles
southwark Siftings.

COLLECTED HIS BILLS.

A Bright Bootblack Compels Delinquent
Customers to Pay Up Old Scores.
There is a right bright boy in an
Adams street barber shop. He has been
troubled a good deal by that class of
dead beats who think it honorable to
pay big men all they owe them, but
smart to cheat a colored boy. These
customers have been paying for their
shaves, their hair cuts, and their wet
shampoos, but have been exercising
their credit when it came to the shines
short time ago the boy read of New
York tailor who compelled insolvent
customers to pay up by displaying their
old bills in his window. So Boots took
tickets and wrote upon each of them the
name of delinquent For each shine
unpaid he punched one hole in the
ticket. When the ticket came to look
like a porous plaster he nailed it up on
board right in front of the ''shiner
chair" The first customer looked over
it, got frightened, then mad then very
much mortified. There were twenty
perforations around his name.
Take down that ticket of mine" he
said to the boy.
do you want that down boss2"
Certainly"
Cost you dollar to take it down, -
said the astute Senegambian. There
was no help for it. The delinquent had
something like shame left. He had nc
objection to robbing the boy, but he
didn't want people to watch him at it.
So he paid the dollar.
"Does your scheme work3" asked one
| of the BARRIERS.
"Work2" said the boy disdainfully
81 would cough. I win 'leven colo

Balmaceda Ready to Attack the Revolu
ZIONIST Army.

Balmaceda Ready to Attack the Revolu-
ZIONIST Army.
VALPARAISO, Chill, via Galveston, Tex,
Aug Gin all probability President
Balmaceda will attack the insurgent
forces now threatening this city to-mor-
row, and government officials and sympa-
thizers are confident that he will crush
them out of existence.
1t is impossible to learn of the position
and movements of the insurgent army,
though naturally there are many rumors
af1oat in connection with them.
The report that they had taken up a
strong position on the hills above the race
course at Vina del Mar is probable 1t is
not improbable also that they had received
some accession of strength since they
fought their way down the coast from
Quintero Bay, as there is no question that
the revolution haskmany sympathizers in
the Province of Valparaiso.
While the movement of the rebels is a
good deal matter of conjecture, there Is
no doubt that President Balmaceda has
lost no time in strengthening his position.
Reinforcements have been constantly ar
irving until now he has within reach fully
20, 600 men.
He has established a long line of de-
fence, reaching from Vina del Mar to
Placilla and it would be almost impossi-
BILE for the forces at the command of
Gen. Canto to break through.
From the condition of affairs here and
the movements of the troops it is general
ly believed to-day that President Balma-
ceda has almost prepared himself for a
decisive move, and that possibly to-mor-
row, and almost certainly within two
days, he will attack the revolutionist
army in force and endeavor to end the wal
SO far as it can be done by a victory or de,
feat in front of Valparaiso
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-08-27

Mr. HARRISON is certainly unfOrtunGt
in one thing. Only those republicans
who already hold federal offices, or
those who are reaching out after one,
speak publicly in favor of his renomina-
ton. Robert Small, the negro ex-con-
gresham of South Carolina, who is
drawing a federal salary in that state,
dropped into Washington last week,
and, having succeeded by some hook or
crook in getting himself interviewed by
reporter of respectable paper, pro-
ceeded to eulogize Harrison and to say
if the southern republicans could dictate
the nomination it would certainly go To
him; he cast a Blaine anchor to wind
ward by saying that the opposition
which once existed among southern re
publicans to Mr. Blaine was now entirely
gone and that they would gladly sup
port him if he was nominated. The
next Harrison man to turn up in Wash
ington was Representative McComas
of Maryland, who oy reason of his
supporting the force bill was defeated
for reelection in district which is
strongly republican. Mr. McComas is
laundering after a seat on the federal
bench therefore it is not strange that
he should say that during a tour of the
northwestern states he found the people
all believing that Blaine was too loyal
to Mr. Harrison to become candidate
and that Mr. Harrison deserved a re-
nomination and would get it.
