RIOTING IN BERLIN.

At the present writing the city of
Berlin is in a condition of dangerous So
cialistic eruption. Seeds of the ''politi-
cal crisis" fiery shoot indigenous to
France, have. apparently, been blown
across the Rhine and taken root. Riot
ing occurred yesterday right under the
walls of the emperOr's castle and along
the Inter den Linden. Yelling work
ingmen took possession of Landberg
strasse. Thousands of excited people
thronged the streets. They cursed
loudly and mingled their jeers with
patriotic cries. Collisions between the
mob and police were of frequent oc-
currence. Windows of stores and resi-
dences were broken with stones hurled
by the diSorderly crowds.
1t is difficult for the people Of a re-
public who have never known any other
form Of government TO understand the
politics incidental to monarchy. That
it is even more difficult for the press of
an empire or kingdom to correctly esti-
mate the weight of political movements
In republic is atteSted almost daily by
foreign Journalistic comment upon the
political trend of the United States, 1t
should, however, be distinctly under
stood by Americans, as it will easily be
graSped by the German element of our
population, that these Berlin socialists
hold nothing in common with what we
recognize as anarchists. The rioting
Workingmen in Berlin are simply
dissatisfied with the economical condi-
ton OF the empire. and are EMPLOYING
most heroic treatment for what they con-
slider disease of the body polite. They
are people slow to anger, but in
tensely demonstrative at the height of
their indignation. Political circles have
been lately excited by the emperor's
speech at Brandenburg. That the en-
peror is not in conciliatory mood
toward his people is generally admitted.
There are rumOrs that Prince BISMARCK
has placed himself at the head of the
strongest party that ever yet opposed
Che. Germangoyernment as at present
constituted. Of late the trend of pnliti-
cal events in Berlin has been toward
solidifying coalition of Radicals, So
ciallsts and National Liberals. Added
to this, severe monetary depression
affiicts the country, as it does, i'm fact,
the greater portion OF the continent.
Work Is scarce; wages are low. The

MIsFoRTUNE,s BENEFITS.

TaIIeyrand's and Other Mems
Fame Due to Accidents in Early
Life.
Talleyrand was the greatest diplomat
of his day. His father was a military
officer. and the boy would no doubt have
been educated to the same profession
but for an accident which befell him ia
childhood, says Youths Companion.
After the fashion of the time. he was
intruSted to the care Of a woman some
miles away from home. While i'll her
charge his foot was dislocated by fall.
1t was not properly cared for. and his
parents did not become aware Of the fact
until ii was too late to correct the error.
The abnormal strain brought upon the
other foot soon induced lameuess in
that also, and the boy thus became
cripple for life. This seeming misfor-
tune determined chance in the plans
OF his parents for him, and as result
the name of Talleyrand has become one
of the most familiar among the great
ones of modern history.
The history of a certain American
family furnishes several similar EXAM
Piles of the benefcent results of dis
abling accidents.
The young son of farmer in small
lOhH III lidu lIlS Idiiu
crushed in his fathers cider mill, and
being thus untitled to gain his liveli-
hood by farming, was sent in due time
to the academy to commence prepare
ton for professional life. He died
member of the United States senate.
A boy who belonged to another branch
of the same family, in the vicinity of
Boston, cut his knee badly and was
long confined to the house. His kind
pastor supplied him with books. and.
perceivlng that he had natural apti-
tude for study, taught him Latin, and
finally induced his parents to send him
to college.
The young man graduated at Harvard
and became minister OF the gospel.
One of his sons was general of the
army of 1872; another served his coun-
try in congress.
The son who entered politics had six
sons who were college educated men, all
prominent i'll their professions. one
judge OF the superior court of New
Hampshire, and another professor for
forty years i'll New Hampshire college
and prominent as an author.
Ali this life of education and useful
ness. extending through three genera
lions, may be said to have startled in
little boys cutting his leg.

KEEP A-KNoCKING.

This world is full of duty;
1t greets you everywhere.
And the man who isn't busy
Is sadly out of gear
"A sunny swarm OF happiness

And ever keep a-knocking.
There's no place for the loafer-
In all of natures brood

Since then she's been esthetic,
At labor ever knocking,
Pointing fingers soft as nonsense
At he who keeps a-knocking.
Perhaps you think I'm joking
While m talking as do,
But all that am saying
You'll find is very true.
There's but one way to comfort
While time is slowly clocking,
Wind up all your energy
And just keep a-kuockiug.
The man who has no business
Is fossil old and dry,
And the world wouldn't miss him

He may have jolly time
In sheer 1dleneSS a-roeSing.
But he can't hold candle
For those who keep a-knocking.
Fortunes rather tickle.
You will find her very sly;
You can't begin TO catch her
If you don't get up aud try.
The way she treats some people,
No doubt you think is shocking,
But her smile ever diulples
For all who keep n-krocSing.
You'll have TO be in earnest.

FUNNY MR.. BLAIR.

Probably Mr.. Blair will find he is per-
soma non grata to the people of the
United States as we'll as China.-lndian-
apolis News.
Ex-senator Blair's idea in running for
president is probably to make use of
whatever popularity he may have
gained by being rejected as minister to
China.-St. Louis Republic.
Senator Blair has no maidenly coy
ness OIL the presidential question. He
is candidate and wants everybody to
know it,: henceIh has written letter
stating the fact.-Pittsburg Chronicle
Telegraph.
Ex-senator Henry Windy Blair has
the clarified gall to expect the people CT
the United States to accept as president
one whom heather China would not
have as minister. Cleveland Plain
dealer.
Henry w. Blair has announced HIM
self a candidate for the Republican
presidential nomination. Who is he?
Is it possible you do net remember the
man the emperor of China refused to
meet?-St. Louis Chronicle.
Ex-senator Henry w. Blair, of New
Hampshire. announces himself candi-
date for the Republican presidential
nomination. If Mr.. Blair were one
tenth so popular with the people as with
himself he would be hard man to
beat.-Toledo Bee.
Mr. Blair is said to be aggrieved be-
cause people will not take his boom
seriously. He would probably be still
more aggrieved If he could witness how
the people would regard it if they
thought it amounted to anything at ALL
Chicago Times.
Henry w. Blair has announced HIM
self as candidate for president. The
ex-senator from New Hampshire should
not force his fellow citizens to express
an unbiased opinion concerning the fit
ness CT a crank for the presidency of the
United States.-Omaha Bee.
Ex-senator Biair's candidacy for pres
ident is undoubtedly huge joke,
although the gentleman himself does not
seem to think so. MIR. Biair's record
may be summarized IN the statement
that he is the prosiest and most long
winded orator that ever taxed the pa
tience of legislative body with the
exposition of unpopular political theo-
ries.-Pittsburg Leader.

A MARROW VIEW.

There is nOn-SeQultur or tW0-a
painful non-sequitur OF two-in the
Minneapolis Tribune's criticisms of the
GLOBE, but this fact does not rob what
it has to say of significance or interest.
1t appears that this paper alluded the
other morning to that well-known phi
lanthropiSt and statesman, dick"
CROKER, as bullet-headed gentleman
who had been twice tried for murder in
a New York criminal court; and now its
esteemed contemporary, remembering
some eulogistic sentiments it had eX-
pressed about him in a previous issue.
has publicly indicted it for inconsiSt-
ency.
Perhaps it was little rash for the
GLOBE to speak in this way of Mr..
CRokER'S personal appearance, but, in
spite of its admiration tor his luminous
intellect and high literary attalnments,
it does not consider him handsome. 1t
goes further than this, and confesSes
that it is not particularly stuck on the
shape of any of the Tammany chief
tains. BoURKE COCHRAN. who has
some fame in the world, looks likea cross
between an Ishmaelite and an Icelander
with very bad complexion, which is
not a happy combination. His honor
Mayor GRANT. who has social as
we'll as political aspirations, cultivates
whiskers of an unpleasant hue. and Of
such needless luxuriance as to suggest
the bearded lady to the casual observer.
And even DAVID 3. HILL, at whose
shrine the GLOBE is accused of burning
incense, is not an Adonis. His face is
too pale, his head too bald and his eyes
too close together to satisfy the canonS
of perfect beauty; and he ambles with a
springy gait which calls up reminls-
cences of floor walker In the main aisle
of a Grand street bargain store. But do
these things detraCt from these noble
mems claims on the gratitude and affec-
ton of the people for whose progress
they are SO unselfshly toiling? Not at
ALL 1t is we'll, of course. to be cOmely,
but 1t is far better to be good.
Nor is it to a gentIeman's discredit to
have been twice tried for a murder al
legged to have been committed in street
fight. Very estimable people have en-
gagged in street fights. Witness, for
example, the Montagues and Capulets,
whose costumes are always of the finest
when they appear on the boards in
Romeo and Juliet" And murder is a
very gentlemanly crime. Embezzle-
ment and sneak thievery and seduction
are pastimes unworthy of one whose
breeding has been good. But the best
of US is liable to commit murder. There
are some newspapers which might
be named. and which it is impossi.
be to read without wanting to kill their
editors. and it is only the difficulties of
distance and time which prevent the
deed. Mr.. CROKER, in point of fact.

the rod.-St. Louis Republic.
A striking illustration of the refining
influence Of woman in politics is pre-
scented by the third party convention at
st. Louis. Miss Willard is one of the
vice presidents and Lady Somerset a
delegate, but the convention came to
blows, and one contumacious delegate
was thrown out of the hall.-Chicago
