Drop bills or anything else but

Bread Fund box. The 3 cent
box is designed for coin only. Bills, etc,
will be gladly received over the office
counter. The box is designed solely for
the too-modest contributors of small
amounts who don't care To be mentioned
in print except as cash" Larger con-
tributors who prefer not to have their
names used have their wishes treated with
equal respect.
"Don't you think you make mistake
in informing your readers that the Bread
Fund has reserve of 5000 loave? Why,
that's enough to furnish nearly all of the
bread wanted for week IL there wasn't a
cent more contributed. Aren't you afraid
people will stop contributing"
That was a question put to the Bread
Fund this morning,
Well, in the first place THE News owes
duty to contributors to tell them ex-
actly and in a business like way Just what
Is being done with the funds intrusted to
its care-just as the bank sends you every
SO long statement Of your deposit.
Then again, NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE
SUCCESS. It's hard to bolster up failure,
but it's easy to push winner. When
proposition has real merit In 1t il is pretty
sure to GO, and when 1t gets its trolley on
it goes faster and faster with every new
impetus. IL you have money you can
borrow money and the more you have
the more you can get. II you haven't
cent you'll find IL hard to get one but IL
you have two cents YOU can get two more
quite handily. That's simple busi-
ness principal and experience. While
II is human nature to sympathize with the
under dog It is the upper dog that gets
the substantial backing. All these plain
and roughly expressed truths so familiar
to US all havetbeir foundation in a certain
equally familiar parable told by the Sa-
vior in st. Matthew XIV 1890.
The Bread Fund is obviously perform
ing needed public service with the ut
most economy of administration. 1t is
sure of relief the organization OF
which makes every mill contributed
available to the relief of necessity and
the actual support OF life. Ii is popu-
lar beyond all measure and prece-
dent. Its administration is giving
-fuHE satisfaction contributors and
beneficiaries. IL Is daily giving
more and moro evidence OF its war
rant for public support and il is getting
that support. According to the truths
expressed in the parable and 10 all human
experience, the more successful it is the
more successful it will be. Nothing sue
ceeds like success. For unto every one
that hath shall be given and he shall have
abundance"
The fact that he Hread Fund has i'm ita
treasury 200 ahead to bc drawn upon
daily for fresh, warm bread,is in itself a
pretty good guarantee that for some time
yet there will be no tagging in contribu-
tions.

LOVE FOR BISMARCK
Shown Throughout the Whole
German Empire.
THE EmpERoR's GRACIOUS ACTS
Him to His People Bismarck Gives
Banquet and Then Returns To Ills
Home Amid Cheers of Populacc.

BERLIN, Jan. ~ Yesterday was a great
day for Emperor William, bismarck and
the fatherland.
The German empire, through its length
and breadth, has been filed with an en-
thusiasm almost Undesirable over the
apparently complete reconciliation be-
tween its two most illustrious sons. The
capital has abandoned itself to delirium
of Joy at the affecting sight of the high
spirited young emperor and the grizzled
patriot statesman clasping hands with
the utmost cordiality of manner and em1
bracing each other with heartiness and
warmth whose sincerity il seemed i'm
possible TO doubt.
From Friederichsruhe TO Berlin there
was series of ovations to Bismarck at
every station passed with his train "a it
bore him to the city where the greatest
triumphs Of his great career had been
achieved.
Beginning with the episode of the pres
entation of flowers by the young women
OF the town where Bismarck resides, con-
tinuing with the large and excitedly
cheering assemblages along the entire
route TO Berlin, and eliminating in the
grand reception by the immense multi
tudc in the capital, the day was one
that gratified the ex-chancellor to his
hearts content, and fully convinced him
of his unshaken hold upon the affections
of his beloved countrymen.
Nam. and Fame Revered.
II was fitting climax in his declining
DAYS 10 the long number of wonderful
popular demonstrations which have been
held during his illustrious career in his
especial honos. In spite of all that has
been said and done within the past few
years. il showed the aged public servant
that his name and fame were dear TO the
hearts OF his fellow-citizens. and chat in
Berlin, which owes so much of her great
ness to him, there was none who could
out-rival him in the estimation Of its in
habitants nor rob him of their unbUunded
love.
The emperor. by the graciousness of his
receptions to Bismarck, aroused un-
bounded enthusiasm, and after their meet
ing everywhere William appeared the
shouts of approval and goodwill were
deafening The widespread effect of the
reconciliation cannot be doubted. Its
full effect cannot mt the present time be
appreciated. IL certainly has done vast
deal toward the unity and strength of the
empire.
Bismarck's age precludes the likelihood
Of any further participation by him in
German politics, and perhaps the
most reasonable explanation that has
vet been given for the emperor $
initiative i'm restoring the frendliest
relations between himself and the ex-
chancellor is TINT Germany's ruler
recognizes the fact that Bismarck
days are numbered, and he has Cancelled
the past, with all its bitter feeling, before
il Is too late.
Those who have been most loudly clam
oring for his downfall are disconnected,
and what is left of the opposition TO Cap
rivi seems so inconsiderable as hardly "a
merit serious consideration.

Everybody Was Happy.

Prince Bismarck's arrival at the castle
yesterday was followed by an enthusiastic
succession of demonstrations upon the
part of the people. Thousands upon
thousands of people packed the square in
front oftne castle, singing the national
anthem, "Wacht am Rhine" and
"Deutsch Uenber Allies" The emperor
and empress, the young princess and
Prince Bismarck repeatedly appeared at a
window, bowling.
While out riding, after leaving Prince
Bismarck at the palace, Emperor William
was wildly cheered by the tbrongs. On
all sides were to be seen in the shop win
dows busts and photographs of Prince
Bismarck, surrounded by palms.
Men and women held their children up
in their arms to catch a glimpse of the
iron chancellor, and had it not been for
the lines of police and escort of cavalry
there is no doubt the people would have
taken the horses from the princes carri-
age and dragged him in triumph to the
castle
After luncheon the imperial princes Wis
tied Prince Bismarck, and about 4 o'clock
Prince Bismarck drove from the castle
and visited the ex-empress of Germany.
Later in the day Prince Bismarck gave
dinner, at which 10 distinguished guests,
INCLUDING the emperor, empress and King
of m xOnV were preSent
