SAYINGS OF BISMARCK.
Twenty-four Hours Would Cover All tn
Pleasures of 4. il Life

Twenty-four Hours Would Cover All the
Pleasures Of lis Life.
A Berlin dispatch to the London
Times quotes some interesting sayings
Of Prince Bismarck. To some one who
spoke to him as happy man he replied
that he had seldom been happy, and
that if he could count up the moments
of real happiness he had enjoyed in all
his life they might perhaps amount to
twenty -four hours Political success had
not brought him happiness, because he
had not had leisure to enjoy it. Politics
with him had been an incessant struggle
and the necessity Of holding what he
had gained had always brought in
creased care with each success In pri.
vate life he said he had had moments Of
happiness, as in boyhood when he had
shot his first hare, and he had been
happy later with his wife and children
and as farmer. He thought that to
enjoy happiness one needed a peculiar
temperament, like that Of his old mas.
ter, who had mixture Of the sanguine
and the phlegmatic temperaments. at
was often difficult TO bring him to de-
termination, but once taken, houses
could be built ON it" OF him he said
that clearness and tranquility preserved
his mind and disposition in the most
harmonious equilibrium, and he added:
" He placed truth above everything; and
| also aimed at being truthful in my
diplomatic career, but sometimes affairs
required US both to diverge publicly
somewhat from the truth. How hard
that was for the old Emperor! He in
varisbly blushed on such occsaions, and
l would not look at him, and turned
quickly away. "-Harper's Weekly.

He Killed His Mistress and Then Tried
to Commit Suicide.

SING SING, N. Y. Aug. s. James
Leach was eleotrocuted this morning
Seventeen hundred volts were turned
into his body and the current was re-
dueed to 800, after which it was again
raised to 1, 200 and reduced to 800. The
current was turned on one minute and
fifty seven seconds before he was pro-
nounced dead.
Leach killed Mary Hope Newkirk, his
mistress, after frequent quarrels, on ac-
count of the attentions paid to the woman
by her uncle, S. H. Moore. The crime
was committed on Sunday, November
IS, 1894, by Leach cutting the woman's
throat with q knife, severing the jugular
vein. When Leach saw that he had
committed murder he tried to commit
suicide by cutting his throat with the
same knife. After he cut his throat ne
wrote on a slate that he killed Mary
Newkirk, and also note stating that he
loved her and before he would allow AL
other man to live with her he would
kill her. Leach and the woman had been
drinking the night before and both were
intoxicated when the crime was commit
ted.

DICK YAEGER CAPTURED.
He is the Most Daring Desperate in the
Indian Territory.

WICHITA, Kan, Aug. 5--Dick Yeager,
alias Zip Wyatt, the most daring des-
perado in the Indian Territory, has been
captured near Sheridan, Oklahoma Ter
ritory. The last sensational crime
of Wyatt's gang was the robbing
of the Rock Island train near
Dover, the shooting Of Messenger
Jones and the looting of the passenger
coaches. After that robbery the au-
thorities began morclless pursuit of
the gang. Three of Wyatt's pals, Tulsa
Jack, Bill Doolan and Ike Black, were
killed and dozen Of the gang captured.
Wyatt, the only one left, was on his way
from the Glass Mountains when the Off
GERS engaged him yesterday. They ran
him across the Rock Island track, near
Waukomis, in a cornfeld, which they
surrounded.
The officers played waiting game.
Thirst finally made Wyatt desperate and
he came boldly out from his cover. He
emptied his Winchester at the posse, which
was headed by Marshall Smith, Of South
Enid. The fire was returned. Smiths
men aimed to cripple Yeager and soon
his left arm fell by his side, SO that he
could not use his gun. The outlaw then
drew his pistols and advanced step by
step toward the men who been hunting
him They backed slowly away, just
enough to keep out of range of his pis-
tolls, and at the same time keeping near
enough to use their rifles.
Wyatt soon fell with bullet in his
hip, but he continued to drag himself
toward the officers, shooting as he
crawled. Another bullet in the shoulder
finally disabled him, and the posse
gathered in on him and overpowered
him. Wyatt was taken to the King
Fisher Jail, where surgeons were brought
in to dress his wounds. They say
he will live Last night the crippled
outlaw was taken to the Garfield county
jail This breaks up the last gang Of
bandits in Oklahoma. One of Wyatt's
recent crimes was the killing of Bap
tist minister who protested when Wyatt
made him give up horse which he was
riding.

MRS. r. DEWITT TALMAGEDEAD.
Died from Nervous PrOstratIOn Caused
by Burning of the Tabernacle.

DANsvILLE, N. Y, Aug. 5.-Mrs T.
Dewitt Talmage died here at $50 this
morning.
Since the burning of the Brooklyn
Tabernacle last year, Mrs. Talmage has
suffered from nervous prostration, and
she has never fully recovered from the
shock sustained then. The fire broke
out while the Doctor was holding his
usual Sunday reception, and large num-
Der of parishioners and visitors were
in the church when the fire broke out.
They all made good their escape but DR..
Talmage went back into the burning
edifice for something he had left behind.
During his absence Mrs. Talmage, who,
with other members of the family, was
outside awaiting his re appearance be-
came greatly excited and alarmed for the
Doctors safety. AS soon as she was in
formed that he was all right she broke
down completely, her overwrought
nerves being unequal for such strain.
Her doctors suggested European trip
to build up her failing health. She was
accompanied to Europe by the Misses
Maud and Daisy Talmage. While in
Rome she became i'll with Roman fever
and accompanied by one of her physi-
clans, retul ned home. While staying at
the family's summer residence, near
East Hampton, L. | -, she appeared to
improve and her friends had hopes for
her speedy recovery This was not to
be, however, as she soon had relapse
of the spells of exhaustion and nervous
prostration. The sufferer was removed
to the Dansyille Sanitarium about year
ago.
While DR.. Talmage was absent on a
lecturing tour in the West last week he
received telegram summoning him to
his wife's bedside. He at once cancelled
all his engagements and hastened back
to find that there was very little hope
for the patients recovery, and he re-
mained with her until the end came this
morning.
The deceased was the second wife of
DR.. Talmage, his first wife was drowned
while boating in 1862, leaving daugh-
ter, Miss Jessie and son, who has since
died. Within two years afterwards the
doctor married Miss Susie Whittomore,
of Brooklyn

BLAND LEADS THE sILVERIFEs.
Thinks the Time Has Come for Silver
Men to Control the Party.

PERTIE SPRINGS, Mo-, Aug. 5.-Silver
"Dick" Bland arrived here to-day to
lead the forces and frame the resolutions
which will be adopted by the Democratic
silver convention which meets to-mor-
row. The advance guard is a small one,
not more than a dozen delegates being
here and, barring Senator COekrell, who
lives here, Bland is the only star attrac-
ton on the grodnd. Bland, however,
has already thrown down the gauntlet to
the anti-silver element in the Democratic
Central Committee, and it may result in
terrible friction if nothing more.
Bland had not been here an hour be-
fore he was out in the emphatic declara-
tion to a few trusted friends that the
time has arrived when the silver men
should assume control of the party ma
chinerv.

A BOMB FOR ROOSEVELT.

Some One Probably Trying TO Scare
the Police Official.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-What is believed
to be an internal machine was discover
ed in the mailing department of the
postofioe to-day addressed to Theodore
Roosevelt, Central Police Office" The
box looked suspicious, and the investi-
cation disclosed a large cartridge with
fuse attached. Police headquarters was
notified and two policemen, sent down
by Chief COnklin, took the supposed
bomb away.
On examination it appeared that some
one had probably been trying to scare
the police commissioner. There was a
shotgun cartridge in the box hut the
postOfice officials did not think it was
likely to do much harm.

from belief that any action. .of theirs
which had tendency to embroil the
Pekin Government with foreign nations
would serve to hasten the overthrow Of
the hated Manchus.
The British Will Act Promptly.
Ku-Oheng is said to be some 800 miles
up the Yangtse river, accessible only to
light draught gunboats. Undoubtedly,
the British gunbOats will be the first to
reach the scene, as there are several at
taehed to the Asiatic squadron especially
adapted to river service. The impression
prevails that the British gunboats will
receive orders to go up and shell Ku-
Cheng without waiting the action of the
authorities at Pekin.
Under instructions from the State De-
partment, United States Minister DENLY
is now engaged in investigating the dam
ages sustained by the American mis-
sions at Oheng-Tu during the rioting
there. The Chinese government has al
ready given assurance that it will pay
suitable indemnity, and has taken steps
to ascertain for itself, through a commits
sion, the extent of the losses sustained by
the foreigners.
Advices from Toxic, Japan, under
date of July 8, state that no foreigner
was killed by the mobs in Cheng Tu and
other Chinese towns during the riots OF
May %, but evidence is at hand that
many were brutally treated, including
women and children.
Local Authorities Did Esthing.
The attacks on the missionaries at that
time were instigated on the old familiar
pretence that sorcery was practiced by
the foreign physicians, and that the
bodies of natives were dissected to OBJ
tain materials for magical spells. The
local authorities did nothing to check
the destruction of property or to protect
the sufferers during the riots, although
shelter was offered afterward in the off,
ces of the provincial magistrates.
Not only in Se-Chaun, but throughout
the nation, the people are let to believe
that the Emperor has ordered move
ment for the extirpation of aliens, and
neither the Governors nor their subordi-
mates bestir themselves to dispel this
conviction.
Further disturbances are apprehended
in regions which cannot be approached
by naval force, in spite of the activity
of the foreign ENJOYS up the Yangtse.
How They Were Killed.
LONDON, Aug. 6.-The correspondent
of the Times at Shang- Hal, says that the
missionaries killed at Ku-Cheng were
murdered by an organized band of eighty
of the Vegetarians. The correspondent
says:
1.-THE ladies begged for their lives,
promising to yield their property and
valuables, but the leader of the band
shouted out his orders to kill them out
right.
a corrected list of the victims is as
follows:
Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart, Miss Nellie
Saunders and Miss Lena Irish, burnt in the
house.
Miss Stettie NewcOmbe was spared and
thrown down a precipice.
Miss Marshall had her throat cut.
Miss Gordon, speared in the head.
Miss Topsy Saunders, speared in the
brain.

SAN FRANCISCO, Gala, Aug. 5.-The
first attempt to do violence to Theodore
Durrant, on trial for the murder of
Blanche Lamont in Emanuel church,
since his incarceration, was made today
as the defendant was leaving the court
room. The prisoner was in the custody
of the chief jailer when wild looking
man rushed from the crowd towards Du-

tried to draw pistol. He was seized
by two deputy sheriffs before he could
