EMPEROR WILLIAM of Germany
has been visiting his grandmamma,
Queen Victoria, whom the young
monarch thoughtfully made the
colonel of a German regiment some
time ago. 1t may be that he is going
to promote her for conspicuous gal
lantry in the field or something OF
that sort.

Mr.. KINsLEY's departure from
hotel customs in New York by having
a pretty young woman for cashier at
the Holland House is attracting
much attention in Gotham, and is
also exercising a restraining influence
on the guests who like to tell funny
stories to the hotel clerks. 1t is a

ONE of the worst things to fatten

Plumpness comes not from roast beef,

The baleful effects of war upon
business enterprises and upon the de-
yelopment and application of invent
i've genius are evidenced in the
history of the first Atlantic telegraph
cables. The laying of the first cable
was barely accomplished when an &C
cident caused it's disuse. The civil
war in the United States, immediate
~ following, exhausted every energy
OF the American people, and all at
tempts to relay the cable were post
poned till 1866, the year after the
war ended.

THE popular demonstrations Of
esteem and affection which greet
Prince Bismarck wherever he goes
must be peculiarly acceptable to the
retired statesman. Even when
official etiquette forbids any court
attention to the retired statesman,
the students and the plain people
come forward to attest their admira-
tion. The most soothing effect of all
this lies in the fact that he was
thrust forth from share in the
unified Germany which his statesman
ship had created, at time of life
when the expression Of gratitude is
most acceptable to all men. His
dignity and his pride were more
severely shocked than was his ambi-
ton. His genius guided Germany
through all the dangers of war and
statecraft to her present greatness.
The father and the grandfather of
the STRIPPING who removed Bismarck
had recognized him as their master
in the art of politics. That the i'm
perial rebuke should come from the
youthful prince must lessen the blow,
for the contrast between the two
men is one of Bismarck's chiefest
vindications should he need one.
The loss of power was not SO hard to
Dear as the thought that the EN-
perOr was about to imperil the safety
Of Germany. Be the result what it
may, the proofs of contemporary re-
gard and admiration give the Crown
Prince foretaste of the Judgment
which history will bestow, and in
that should be balm for the wounds
Of the prOudeSt spirit.

adopted. With this end in view we
urge that request to be sent out to all

OF lightin each room wou suffice in
cases where they do not wish to go to

NOT A POLITICAL ORGANIZATION.

To TIE EDITOR OF The TlMEs-In
view OF the fact that reports have been
circulated that the w. G. Il. u, of this
city, is political organization, the la
dies connected with the unions of Roa-
noke desire to state that they have no
connection with with any political
party, and have not organized for that
purpose. The purpose of their organi-
cation is gospel temper ance. They
have banded together to save home and
children, to lift up fallen humanity,
and to put those who are seeking bet
ter life in condition to realize it. In
doing this they ask the cooperation of
all good men and women.
