Plain Prince Bismarck.

Prince Bismarck, whether at Wilhelm
strass. Varzln or Friedrichsruhe, Is very
plain man indeed, and is utterly careless OF
appearances. His servants are all ancient
and indifferently dressed, and his equipages
are said to be "plainer and uglier than
those Of provincial gentleman never
leaving his native city" The Prince has
his own way of getting rid of visitors who
outstay their welcome. An Ambassador
once asked him how he managed to end an
interview. Perfectly easy" answered
Bismarck. "My wife knows pretty accu-
rately when people prolong their visit be-
yond the proper time. and then she sends
me message that am wanted" He had
barely finished speaking when footman
knocked at the door and informed him that
the Princess wished to speak to him. The
diplomat, blushing and confused, beat a
hasty retreat, without stopping for the
ordinary formalities Of leave-taking.

TRANSFORMING DAYS.
A Story Of Edwin 6oosh That Il Coz
Enough 20 Re True.

a Story Of Edwin Booth That Il Good
Enough % Re True.
Once during the days o1 his early Strug.
gies, says the Baltimore American, Booth
was transforming" down in Virginia ct .
place called Lees Landing. The improvised
theAter was tobacco warehouse, and it was
crowded by the planters from miles around.
Booth and his companions had arranged to
take the weekly steamer expected to call
late ct night, and between the acts were
busy packing up. The play was ''The Mer-
chant Of Venice" and they were just going
On for the trial scene when they heard .
whistle and the manager came running In
to say the steamer had arrived and would
leave again In ten minutes. As that was
their only chance for Q week of getting
away, tthey were In q terrible Quandary.
The narrative proceeds:
''If we explain Matters" said the man.
ager, ''they win think they are being cheat
ed and we shall have free fight. The only
thing Is for you fellows TO get up some sort
of . natural-like impromptu ending Of the
piece, and ring down the curtain. Go right
ahead, ladies and gentlemen, and take
your cue from Ned here" and he
hurried away to get the luggage
aboard. Ned, Of course, was Bes-
sanio. and he resolved to rely on
tuo ouCo o. Tue bASlut8uB Oh buOSO
days TO pull him through all right. So,
when old George Ruggles, who was doing
Shylock, began TO sharpen his knife on his
boot, Booth walked straight up to him and
solemnly said: ''You are bound to have
your pound Of flesh. are youf
"You bet your Hfei" said RuRgles.
''Now. I'll mako you one more offer, con-
tinued Booth sin addition TO this big bag of
ducats, I'll throw in two kegs Of niger
head terback, a shotgun and two Of the
best coon dogs in the State"
'.Pm blarmed II don't do It ~ responded
Shylock, much 20 the appreciation OF the
audience, who were tobacco.raisers and
commuters to man.
"And to show that there's no ILL feeling"
put in Portia, swell wind up with Vir-
ginny reel''
When they got on board OF the steamer,
the captain, who had witnessed the conclu-
sion Of the play, remarked:
''pd like to see the whole Of that play
some time, gentlemen. I'm harmed if
thought that fellow Shakespeare had 90
much snap in him.

ATTACKED BY WEASELS.
Battle Waged by These Fierce Little Ami
mails Against Three Men,


George Gray, an employee of Farmer Bull,
near Pine Mill, Pa, recently went out in one
Of the farmers fields to haul away some stone
piles that had been lying in the field since
last fall. He had thrown on the drag but
few stones from one of the piles when a
weasel jumped outof the pile. Gray kicked
at the animal as it was passing him, and the
fierce little brute turned on the man and
sprang for his throat. Its teeth closed on
Gray's flannel shirt at his chest. In tearing
the weasel loose 1t set its teeth into Gray's
arm, tearing the flesh down for three
inches. The taste of blood seemed to in
crease the fury of the weasel, and Gray had
all he could do to keep it from springing on
his throat. He at last succeeded in stunning
the weasel by a kick, and was about to
hurry 10 the house to have his wounds
dressed when six other xsasals one after
the other, trooped from the stone pile and
made combined attack on Gray. They
swarmed upon him, biting and tearing his
flesh on the legs, arms and body. Fearful
for his life. Gray turned aud fed, followed
by the weasels, which chased him clear to
the house, over half q mile away, infiicting
still further wounds with their sharp teeth
Gray's shouts for help brought a SON Of
his employer aud another man out of a
barn, where they were threshing, and the
two ran 70 Gray's aid. Even these rein
forcements did not daunt the weasels, and
before they were routed, which was not
until three Of them were killed, they had
inflicted many ugly wounds on their foes,
and the three men were covered with blood
from head to foot. Gray has been confined
to his bed ever since. It is well known that
weasels will fight to the death when cor.
nered, or will attack sleeping person, bu;
for them 10 fight three men in an open field
assuming the aggressive at the start, Is
something unheard of before in this region
of hunters and trappers.
