Bismarck Fails to Receive Majority of Votes
for the Seat in the Reichstag.

for the Seat in the Reichstag,
BERLIN, April 16.-Returns from Geeste-
munde are still incomplete, but are sufficient
to show that Bismarck must submit to the
indgnity of supplementary ballot, unless,
as Is probable, he retires from the contest.
The poll has been light one, owing to the
great abstention of National Liberals.
Prince Bismarck is certain of election on
the second ballot as he now lacks only 1000
votes OF having an absolute majority as re-
CURED by law, and the Freisinnige and
Guelph voters are almost certain to support
him or at least abstain from voting rather
than give the seat to Socialist candidate.

STRANGE POSITIONS IN DEATH.
Queer Incidents of the War as Observed
by Participant.

Queer Incidents of the War as Observed
by a Participant.
During the late civil war detach-
ment of United States soldiers fOrag-
ing around Goldsborough, n. c., came
suddenly upon small band of southern
troops who had dismounted These
latter Immediately jumped into their
saddles and all scampered away except
one, after being exposed to one round
of firing. The soldier who did not es-
cape was seen standing upright with
one foot in the stirrup of his saddle.
In his left hand he held the bride and
the horses name, while his right hand
grasped his rife near the muzzle, the
stock being on the ground. The horse
mans head was turned towards the
right shoulder, apparently watching the
approach of the enemy. Some of the
union soldiers were preparing to fire
again, when the officer ordered them to
desist and to make the defiant man
prisoner. The man was then ordered
to surrender, but he made no answer.
When he was approached it was found
that he was stone dead and perfectly
rigid in the attitude described above. 1t
took considerable of an effort to force
his left hand to release the horses
name and to remove the rifle from the
right hand When the body was laid
upon the ground the limbs preserved
the same position and the same infexi-
bility. The man had been struck by
two balls fired from Springfield rifles
One of these had entered to the right of
the spinal column and had made its exit
from the body near the region OF the
heart 1t had left slight indentation
in the saddle and then dropped to the
ground The horse remained unhurt,
having stood the fire because tied to
tree by halter.
The following is another incident: at
the battle of williamsburg Dr. L. P.
Reed examined the body of United
States zouave who had received ball
in the forehead just as he was climbing
over a low fence. Like that Colds
borough case above, this man had pre-
served the last attitude of his life. One
of his legs was half over the fence,
while his body still remained behind
One hand was raised level with his fore
head with the palm forward as if to |
ward off some imminent danger.-St. |

for quite distance.

understood their part of fair work.

The usual number of candidates we're

in the best condition and accounts for
the rather slow time made. The Her.
