Bismarck, the illustrious German states
man, today completes his 18th year. He
10 reputed to be in very bad health and
great statesman begins to break at a time
when Germany's ship Of state shows the
effect OF the long absence of his strong and
skiilfnl hand from the helm. Bismarck is
popularity rated simply as a man of blood
and iron. but he was vast deal more than
that: he was the most astute diplomatist
OF has time. The great sagacity and force
fnl quality of Bismarck placed him at the
head of European statesmen. Not an
orator In the sense that Gladstone Is an
orator. Bismarck was most powerful
ready and forcible debatcr. He made i'm
reriai Germany. The bow IF Ulysses only
Ulysses could bend. When Bismarck
ceased to he chancellor he left his bow be-
hind him in shape OF imperial Germany,
and the young emperor has made thus far
rather clumsy work OF trying to bend the
bow Of Bismarck. He may succeed in
breaking the bow in some fl of rash tenn
per. but TO place ones heel on a good
sword and break it at the hilt is cheap
performances: 20 WELD 9 sword with
strength and skill proves ones right to
the title of master of arms.
IL Bismarck sho1ld die tomorrow there
would be a violent difference in the esti-
mate Of the man, the quality Of his genius
and the worth of his WORK, not only in
France, but even In Germany. The French
view of Bismarck finds in Napoleon Bona
parte his prototype. Thirty years ago the
liberal press OF Germany denounced Bis
marck as "this adorer Of Napoleon" To
Bismarck by his critics is attributed Nano-

The leading astronomical event OF the month
II the total solar eclipse which occurs on the
10th. Tho eclipse, however. Is not visible from
any point In North America. Europe or Asia.
The path OF the central pse frst strikes South
America in Chile at about latitude 30deg. south.
1t crosses South America, terminating on the
east shore, little northwest Of Cape St Rogue.
Then, crossing the Atlantic ocean, the central
path strikes Africa on the west coast near Cape
Verde. ana finally terminates in Nubia . little
east Of the Great Desert While this eclipse can
not Be seen from North America, several expedi-
lions have been sent from the United States to
South America to observe II, among them one
from the Lick obssrvatorys in charge OF Prof.
Schaebefle.
The ides Of March and April witnessed the
death OF two OF the most noted charactsrs the
world has ever known-Julius Cesar and Abra-
ham Lincoln. The supefstitions OF astrology
attend the death of Cesar to . remarkable dc.
gree, - one may learn from the passage in
which Cslphurnia speaks:
When beggars die there are no comets seen:
The heavens themselves blaze forth the death OF
princes.
Plutarch says that brilliant comet was seen
for seven successive nights after Csesar's death.
Astrology suffered great loss and astronomy
made great gain during the period from Julius
Cesar to Abraham Lincoln. So far a. we know
there were no unusual appearances In the
heavens connected with Lncoln's death. It
may, however, be worthy Of remark that at the
moment Booth fred the fatal shot 6irius, the
brightest star Of the heavens, had just set
