utterances calculated to injure the feel
ings of the German people. Even the
critical VorWaerts, the organ of the
Social Democracy, has the good taste
to keep silent. The semi official North
German Gazette concludes a very
sympathetic article with these words:
LAS in the years before Prince Bis
marck'S work, SO now also large sec
ton of our people stand between hope
and fear, asking themselves whether
We are in the right path, and whether
it will lead to a. new rise and happy
end or to decline and ruin. We have,
however, an incaLculable advantage
in having learned our strength. Every
hour we can comfort ourselves by look
ing back in the past, which gives us the
assurance that SO long as our thoughts
and actions are German and elevated,
nothing can destroy, neither an
envious external enemy, nor an in
sidious internal foe. For all the ser
vices Prince Bismarck performed for
his king and country, before the mag
nitGde of which services the tongue
is dumb, we thank him today with the
SincereSt gratitude of our deeply moved
hearts,"
The address of the bundesrath to
Prince Bismarck, after expressing that
body's satisfaction in having cooper
ated with him, proceeds:
Thanks to the policy directed
by your serene highness, the alliance
of the princes stands firm against de-
composing elements, which never
weary in the attempt to destroy the
work of a glorious time. The bundles
rath knows it is at one with all patri-
ots in the conviction that it was your
far-seeing vision that enabled the
i foundation of this success to be laid
! The federal council will continue to
| further the completion of the imperial

part of the debt of gratitude due to the

all the great public questions Of the
day, and to meet any emergencies that
may arise. 1t is the privilege of the
league now, as heretofore, to be the
first in the field to prepare the way for
the next campaign. 1t is the only po-
litical organization that has kept it's
forces constantly at work since 1887,
and, with the coming convention, pro-
poses to begin at once a campaign of
Organization and education through
out the United States, on a platform
broad enough to attract from all par
ties the men who believe that the prin-
ciples, policies and aspirations of the
Republican party are best for the peo-
pie of the United States. All voters in
the United States in sympathy with
the above; are cordially invited to join
the Republican league clubs, and
through clubs and state leagues par
ticipate in the election of delegates to
the national league convention at
Cleveland. We appeal to the young
| men of the country, particularly the
first voters, to take advantage of the
league plan of organization, and form
young mems clubs with special ref
| erence to the campaign of 1896. Spe-
cial railroad rates have been secured
for the convention, and information
concerning the same will be supplied
by the various state league officials,
or direct from these headquarters.

But 1t Is as Fi&hy as Zenith City
Stories.
PARIS, Tex, March 31.-Parties
who arrived here today bring news of
a most singular phenomenon recent
ly discovered in the widest part of
Choctaw nation. The Nanawoyd
mountain is about fifteen miles long
and fully LOCO feet high. 1t is an un-
frequented section, no person liv-
ing within thirty miles Of it. A
party of hunters went there, and,
seeing smoke, proceeded to the place.
Arriving there, they found that the
smoke was issuing from a assure in
the rock, which was so hot they
! could not stand on it. A strong
odor of sulphur pervaded the atmos-
phere and occasional detonations
were heard. The party became
alarmed, and left the vicinity. They
went and told an old Indian of their
discovery. He was familiar with the
place, but said smoke was issuing
from it and the same noises were
! heard in 1882, when the Choctaws
went to that country. Further in
vestigation will be made, as veins
| of silver have been found at the
| base of the burning mountain.

FREDERICKSBURG CROWDED.
The Roadway to the Schloss Is

Prince.

FREDERICKSBURG, March 81
The Bismarck celebration is in full
swing, and every day seems to add
to the enthusiasm displayed by the
German people over the eightieth
anniversary of the birth of the old
chancellor. Every train arriving at
FREDERICKSBURG is loaded with pres
ents for the aged statesman, and
every post brings hundreds of con-
gratulatory letters, not only from
people in Germany, but from Ger
mans and others throughout the
civilized world. Thousands upon
thousands of special business Bis
marck post cards have been sold,
and a great number have been
mailed to the United States. Those
in Germany who have received them
have put them carefully away to be
preserved as mementOs of the iron
chancellor and the great Outpour-
ing of the public heart in his honor.
Nothing preventing, it is believed
that tomorrow, the actual anniVer-
sary of the princes birth, will wit
ness such a popular demonstration
as has not been witnessed since the
return TO Berlin of the
CONQUERING ARMIES
from France. Every preparation has
been made at Friedrichsruhe to ac-
commodate vast crowds. The decora-
ton of the station has been con-
Guided and the roadway from the
station to the Schloss has been trans
1Ormed by willing hands into a Veri-
table triumphal arcade. A beautiful
work of art, the gift of inhabitants
Of Anhalt, who took up a subscriD
ton for the purpose, has been erect
ed in d field overlooking the princes
home. The work which is in bronze
represents a large stag keeping two
dogs at bay. For the first time since
the beginning of the celebration in
his honor, Prince Bismarck Saturday
was somewhat fatigued and indis-
posed, his old trouble, neuralgia,
troubling him slightly. A good
nights sleep, however, restored his
health and spirits, and today he was
as bright as ever. Thousands of
i'2iNSAto S'i l Nb bONiSAS, IIOElIISo bllSl L
they would get a glimpse of the
prince. Quite fair has been estab-
lished in the vicinity of the station
REFRESHMENT BOOTHS
have been erected, and here and
there and everywhere were itinerant
purVeyorS of Bismarck post cards,
medals, portraits and mementos of
every description. Quite thriving
trade was done. During the after
noon the Sky became overcast, and
then followed, off and on, drench-
ing showers. The rain, however, was
not sufficient TO dampen the enthusi-
asm of the sightSeers and holiday
makers, and between the showers
crowds would watch the grounds
surrounding the princes residence
hoping that perchance they might
get a glimpse of him they had come
to honor. Today the prince received
his first cOngratulatory telegram
from a crowned head outside of Ger
many. 1t came from King Oscar OF
Sweden, and contained a graceful
expression of his majestys interest
in the occasion and hearty we'll
wishes for the princes welfare anC
longevity.

GOES UP FOR LIFE,
The Jap Who Fired Upon Lii Hung
Chang.

SHIMONOSEKI, March 31.-Koyama
Rokunseki, the young Japanese who
attempted to assassinate Ii Hung
Chang, has been sentenced to penal
SerVitude for life. The arnstice es-
tablished by the order of the mikado
extends to April 20, but it will termi-
nate If the peace pour parleurS is
broken in the meantime. According
to the terms Of the armistice the move
ment of troops and the transportation
of contraband of war by sea is for
hidden. The new distribution of troops
not intended to augment the armies in
the field is allowed. Japan originally
proposed as conditions of an armiSticc
the occupation by the Japanese of
Shan KWan, Taku and Tien TSin and
Japanese control of the Shan KWan
q Tien TSin railroad, China, to defray
the costs of such occupation. Ii Hung
Chang has Vainly sought to modify
these conditions, and it was proposed
to continue the negotiations without
an armistice being established when
the attempt on the life of the Chinese
plenipotentiary occurred. This led to
the declaration of the mikado Of an
unconditional armistice.
LONDON, March 31.-The Times will
tomorrow publish the following dis
patch from Shimonoseh:
LAS the terms of the armistice do
not embrace the Island of Formosa,
the Japanese operations there will con-
tinue.''

ers being accompanied by a military
band. The view of the city tonight
from the Aussen Alster and Binnen
Alster is beautiful one. The Lom-
bards bridge, which spans the con-
nection between these two bodies of
water, is a chain of glowing lights.
The Neuer Jungfernstieg, Amster-
dam, and the wide streets fronting
the Binnen Alster are ablaze with
myriad lights, while back of them
the city lies like a gigantic fire opal,
in which red, green and other col
ored lights flash in every direction
All the shipping in the harbor and

There was a grand display of fire

Our Shares Selling Better in Lon
don

LONDON, March 31.-With the in
flux of gold from abroad and no
sign of immediate shipments TO the
United States, the rates for money
continued lower during the past
week. With the exception of home
railway securities, which We're weak
on bad traffic reports, the tone Of
the stock market was good all
around, although, owing to the set
Element, dealings were only on a
moderate scale. The Eastern armis-
tice gave a further impulse to sill
yer certificates. Sir Edward Gray's
statement in the house Of commons
about the French policy in the upper
Nile had the effect of weakening in
terna tional stocks. Spanish bonds
were fairly sold as a result of the
cabinet crisis in Madrid and the
Cuban troubles. Paris sold all inter-
national stocks rather heavily in or
der to obtain money to invest in
mines. The business in the mining
share market has at last become SO
heavy that it has caused a break
down in the clearing house arrange
ments. 1t is quite evident that the
committee is bound to do something
to cope with the boom. Canadian
railway securities showed a better
tone. The market for American rail
way securities continued to improve
on various signs of widening trade
prospects. Wool has been bought
largely on the London auctions or

ANTHONY HFSING DEAD.
Father of Postmaster HeSipg, of
Chicago, No More.


Chicago, No More.
CHICAGO, March 31.-Anthony G.
Hesing, former editor and publisher
of the Illinois Stats Zeitung, died
today, aged seventy-two. For the
last few years Mr.. Hesing had re-
tired from active business and pO-
litical life When Mr.. Hesing retired
his son, Washington Hesing, now
postmaster Of Chicago, took charge
of the Stats Zeitung. Washington
Hesing tonight said that for the last
two months his fathers health has
been much better than for some time
previous He called at the poStOffice
last Thursday. The funeral arrange
ments have not yet been completed,
but the interment will be Wednesday
at st. Boniface cemetery, this city.
Mr.. Hesing was born Jan. 6, 1923, in
Germany, and came to America in
1889. Throughout the war Mr.. Hes
ing was an ardent Supporterof the
Lincoln adminiStra ton, and during
the reconstruction era was a radical
He contributed largely to the Re
publican congressional victory in
Illinois in 1886. With the exception
of being one of the Lincoln park
commissioners from 1874 to 1876, he
has held no political office since he
was sheriff. He was and has been
an active force in politics, however.
To him the foundation and success
of "Altenheim,' or the German old
Peoples home, near Oak Park, is
very largely due. For the past year
or more he has been active in the
work of the civic federation. On the
SEVENTEEN anniversary of Mr.. Hes
! ing's birth he was given a notable
reception. kilograms of congratula-
ton were received from all parts of
the country. The employees of the
Stats Zeitung, who had been in the
service of that journal for more than
twenty-five years, presented him with
a gold-headed cane and an address
of respect, and the Orpheus Maen-
! nerchor serenaded him in q body.

HAMBURG, March 31.-One of the
features of the Bismarck celebration
here was the holding last night Of a
Corners" organized by the reichstag
electoral union. Sixteen hundred ad-
mirers of the prince were present,
and hundreds had to be turned away
from the doors owing to lack OF
room. Several senators, the presi-
dent of the house of burgesses, Off
GERS, officials and the elite of Ham
burg society were present. DR.. Sieve
king. president of the supreme pro-
vincial court, proposed "hochs for
Emperor William. His majesty's
popularity has been greatly in
creased here by his graceful atti-
tude towards the prince, and the
"hochs' were given with hearty
good will. DR.. Sieveking then made
an eloquent speech, in which he
highly eulOgiZed the services of
Prince Bismarck. The speech was re-
ceiVed with storms of applause. To-
day all the pablo and a majority
of the private buildings in the city
were decorated with flags and dec
GRATED in honor of the occasion. To
night there was a general illumina-
ton on a scale that had not been
attempted before in a quarter of a
century. In the window of every
shop there was displayed either a
wre&thed portrait or bust of the
great reichskanzler. In addition
some of the windows contained his
toric scenes and portraits of EN-
peror William. Photographs of the
meeting of the emperor and Prince
Bismarck last Tuesday are being
sold in large numbers. The streets
are thronged with strangers, an6
everywhere can be seen the vari
coloTed caps of the students, with
whom there is no greater favoritt
than the prince. The students tonigh
gave a "comerS," at which seventy
nine corps and every German uni
versity was represented. Man.

seventy years of age, were also pres
ent. The proceedings were of tn

annual convention, and in accord
ance with the instructions of the
last national convention at Denver,
the eighth annual convention of the
Republican national league of the
United States is hereby called to
meet in the city of Cleveland, o.,
Wednesday June 10, 1895, at 10 clock
a. M, and continue it's sessions until
it's business is completed. 1t is pro-
posed to take three days for this
convention, so that there may be
ample time for a full discussion on
the questions of special interest to
the party at this time. The ratio
of representation will be six dele
gates-at-large from each state and
territory, four from each congress
sional district and one from each
college Republican League club in
the United States, duly represented
in the American Republican Col
lege league convention at Grand

following are
EX-OFFICIO DELEGATES,
viz. The president, secretary and
treasurer of the national league, one
vice president and one executive
member Of the national organization
from each state and territory, and
the president and secretary of each
state and territorial league, making
four eX-officio delegates from each.
This gives each state practically ten
elegateS-at-large in addition to the
four from each congressional dis
trict. The total representation will
exceed 1000 delegates, with an equal
number of alternates. The business
of the meeting will include reports
from the officers Of the league, the
election of officers, vice presidents
and members of the executive COM
mittee for the ensuing year, the
| designation or reference of the time
| and place for the next national
league convention, a general discus
| sion of league club work, party pol
| tiles and organization, the formation
! Of a plan of campaign with special
reference to the presidential year,
| and a consideration of such other
| questions as the convention may
deem proper. The utter failure Of
/ the Democratic administration in
it's management of both foreign and
| domestic affairs has created ma
| tional distrust, general paralysis in
| business, has driven capital from the
! factories and labor into the streets,
reduced the revenues of govern
ment and increased its bonded in

OMAHA, Neb., March 31.-Satur-
day night, Sunday and Sunday night
rain or snow fell in nearly every
county in Eastern and Northern
Nebraska. A few spots in the CEN
trail and western parts of the state
have not reported, but it is known
that the storm was general through
the thickly settled portion of the
state. More timely rain never came,
for the greatest anxiety was felt
in reference to the prospect for the
coming crop in Nebraska, and the
lack Of rain had given rise to appre-
tensions that already the conditions
in the state were such that the out
look for an abundant crop was very
dubious. In order that the exact
situation might be known, the Bee
has secured reports of the present
condition throughout the state.
Reports have been received from
nearly every county "a the state,
which show that as yet there is no
cause for the alarm that has been
felt-that, in fact, the prospects are

rain, the reports indicated that in
almost every section of Nebraska
the soil is moist and in good cOndi-
ton for working and seeding. There
are exceptions to this rule, but not
enough to make the outlook at all
dubious. 1t is true there has been
q great lack of moisture but the
not too dry for seeding, and that,
with the rain which came last night
and what will doubtless follow in
| April and May, all crops will be in
| excellent condition. In the eastern
| counties the soil is reported in fine
condition, though in the southeast
more rain is needed. This section
was soaked yesterday The acreage
is reported to be an average one
both in corn and small grain. In
the central portion of the state the
