ticularly fortunate to have as much sue
cess as | had, for so far as have learned,
was the only journalist Bismarck has con-
sented to see and speak 10 during his
stay in Narzin.
HIS DAILY LIFE.
However, incidentally learned a num-
Der Of data and incidents about Bis
marck's daily life in Narzin which, some
at least, will bear repeating.
NarLin is huge estate, so far away
from all hustle, and from civilization one
might say, that the pulse of the fast
moving world outside is not even felt
beating there. All round, territory of
about 50 English square miles, nothing
but dense woods of magnificent pine,
beech and larch trees, dotted at inter
walls by small villages, of which four be-
side Farzin belong 10 the estate. Few of
the farmers own their farms and home
steads, since the prince has gradually
bought their lands and made them de-
pendent on him. The only signs Of mod
er1 civilization about the village of Var
zin-Otherwise extremely primitive with
its low, thatched cottages-are the steam
dairy and the steam dlstillery operated
by the lord of the manor.
The castle as it is called, lies at the
extreme end of the village, close TO the
edge of pine forest, and it has been lett
quite as it was when the prince bought it
from Count Blumenthal, twenty-siX years
ago. But since it did not suffice for his
needs, another and finer building has
been erected by Bismarck, connected by
low wing with the older structure. In
the upper story of the new manor the
prince has his suite of apartments
library, work room and bedroom
while his wife occupies several plainly
furnished rooms on the ground floor,
where DIR. Chrysander, too, has his
domicile. In the old structure are the
large dining room cool and pleasant, the
breakfast and billiard room, the "smok-
ing parlor,' and the bathroom, while
The side wings contain apartments for the
Count and Countess Rautzau and the two
sons, Herbert and Wilhelm. Seated on
the front OF the old castle one is sur
rounded by a shady verandah, with
creeping vines all about it, and a care
fully kept garden; in the midst a pretty
pond alive with gold fishes, refreshes the
eye.
HIS HORSE AND DOGS.
Back of the buildings is a good sized
park, and there, too, Bismarcks favorite
horse, ROsette, the one that carried him
through the campaigns OF 1866 and 1870,
as well as his two other quadruped friends
his dogs, Sultan and Flora, are buried 1t
is number of years since Bismarck gave
up hunting, although he was quite a
Nimrod in his younger days. Walking,
too, he has given up, and he now confines
his exercise to daily drives in an open
landau when the weather is fair
and in a half closed carriage on moist
and raw days. He has grown to love
solitude, too, and to take his ease.
Speaking of Herr Won Balen, Jolly
bachelor and owner of a neighbor-
ing estate, whom Bismarck in the
days of power used to have as a frequent
guest at his table during his regular sum
mer vacation in Narzin, and who by rea-
son of his lively humor and fine converse
tional powers was greatly liked, the
prince said: Him, too, they've snatched
away from me-" Herr Won Balen is now
police director of Potsdam. 1t is now but
seldom that the prince makes calls on his
neighbors and even the old Col. Won Zitze-
witt, lord of the manor in Besswitz, with
whom Bismarck once had great falling
out because of a question of seignorial
rights, he sees but seldom at present
Once week he pays snort visits to COM
mercial Councillor Behreud in Hammer
muhle, and to the pastor in Wussow and
the district president in JanneWitz.
LOVES SIMPLE MUSIC.
Both he and the princess are fond of
music, but the simpler and more print
tive the better. The princess, not long
had wandered as far as Varlin, to play
for full hour under the window DR.
Chrysander, who is by profession medi-
cal man and is considered the ablest of
Prof. Schweninger's disciples, furnishes
the musical talent to the household every
day, and it is this talent of his which is
in no small part the secret of
his almost perfect power over both prince
and princess. Both of them have
the utmost confidence in this
youngish man and they never re-
ceive anybody whose visit has not pre-
viously been approved by DR.. Chrysander.
Since the incident with the French Jour
nalist, LIE Roux, who two years ago saw
the prince and out of few carelessly
dropped remarks of his, perhaps miscon-
strued or Intentionally misiuterpreted,
constructed his famous-or infamous-in-
interview in which he explained the
sending Of Bismarcks fateful dispatch
from Lun in 1870 in a way which placed
the old statesman in the light of wilful
torger of historic documents, DIR. Chry-
sander has become extremely cautious as
