RED ROSE OF 0ORZE,
A Wounded Officers Cit to Old En-
peror William.

A Wounded Officers Gift to Old En-
peror William.
The story of the "Red Rose OF
Gorze," as charming as it is true, is
often told by Germans to illustrate
the touching loyalty of a subject and
the grateful remembrance and appre-
cation OF his sovereign. In August,
1870, a German officer was lying
wounded in tho house of q French
family, near the little town OF Gore
in Lorraine. He had received six
wounds in the battle OF Mars-la-Tour,
five OF them as he lay on the ground,
while the fight surged around hint, and
he was scarcely expected to ecover.
The French family in whose house he
was quartered nursed their wounded
enemy with much kindness and skill.
One morning the officer found placedin
o glass by his bedside a beautiful red
rose. just opening, which the daughter
OF the house had brought in from the
garden while he slept. Its scent and
beauty were refreshing to the sick
man, but instead OF keeping it he sent
his soldier-servant at once with it to
Gore. where the King OF Prussia's
headquarters were, and told him to
give that rose to the King, with the
message that n OF his wounded Of
ticers had sent it to him. The King
put the rose in his buttonhole and in
quired the name of the officer. cap.

When Captain Zedwitz was sufi-

Berlin he found that his red rose had
become quite famous, for showers of
roses-red roses-were sent to him
from all sides, SO that his rooms
were full of them. In March Of the
next year, six months after the
original rose had faded Zedwitz had
occasion to ask an audience OF the
Emperor King. lie was received
most gr%aciously and at the Emper-

thanked the officer for it. AS led

Across the seas.

ST. PAUL, May "a The Pioneer Press
says: The Northern Pacific system is
no longer bound by the two OCEANS
which skirt either side of this continent,
but il has spanned the Pacific aud ex.

Orient. This enlargement of q syetem
already vast was announced from the
general traffic managers Office yester
day. Til. change has not been brought
in q day. 1t is the out
growth of "a movement which has
been in progress for many months.
Nearly all the negotiations, however,
have been carried OH in Great Britain,
and this, together with the secresy n
corning the matter maintained by the
company from considerations of policy,
will account for the fact that nothing
definite regarding the protest has hith.
erto leaked out. On the 21st inst. a
steamer sailed from hong Kong for Ta-
coma via Yokohama. This ia the inau.
gurai trip of q, trans Pacific service
which the Northern Pacific has sue
ceeded in establishing in connection
with its great railroad system. This
steamer will sail from Yokohama about
tho tbirty-first INST, and will arrive at
Tacoma about twelve days later. .
THREE LARGE STEAMERS
are at present being fitted out in the
Clyde for this service. Two of
them will be known as the Par
thia and Tacoma; the third hos
not yet been christened. 1t
will be two months before these boats
will be ready to begin plying between
Hong Kong, and in the meantime the
service will be kept up by special steam
ers chartered for the purpose. When
the service is regularly established it is
intended that it shall be. semi. monthly
two steamers leaving from each end
every month. At present it is not pro-
posed to extend the service further than
to Japan and Chine, but it may
ultimately be carried to Austria lian

all Intoxicating liquors amount to
nothing comparatively, because it's
